As can be seen from this pic, I have 3 durantium deposits mined by 1 and the same starbase. Yet, the math is obviously wrong: the screen itself says that 0.2 x 3 = 0.4!

I got + 0.1 mining thanks to survivalism ideology multiplier, selective culling, that gives such bonus. To my understanding, it gives that 0.1 to only the very first resource that is mined by the starbase, ignoring that I have 3 of the same resources mined by that starbase.

I upgraded from an old version to the current, and now when I try to open a program, if there is one copy running it shows me that rather than opening a new one.

for example, explorer.exe, another is putty.

How can I fix this?

Thanks

I have boxes configured on both monitors. I power down only monitors at night. When I turn monitors on simultaneously all my boxes are on monitor 1. Every day I have to configure fences and restore my layout from a backup. I have searched forums and tried a few things to no avail.

I have had some problems with my system and had to refresh a couple of times.  Now I am unable to activate any of my licenses

So Brad (Frogboy), I was reading your email update about your 25th year anniversary and thanks for making me feel really old! My last post here was about 10 years ago (15th year) and I have to say that things have gotten better. I've seen a lot of games, developers, and companies come and go over the years (as you have), but few have demonstrated both staying power and the ability to not stagnate. 

Awesome job! I still enjoy playing the GalCiv  family today. 25 year anniversary mak...

I'm getting desktop lag when I have fences enabled.  For example, the selection rectangle won't appear for awhile after I've let go of the left mouse button.  Switching pages is especially bad, I have to hold left and right mouse for at least a second before I can start switching the desktop page.  The animation isn't smooth at all either.  This issue does not persist if I disable fences.  I have tried doing a purge but that hasn't helped.

Any tips are greatly appreci...

So…what is a Polymorphic Virus? Quoting the technopedia:

“A polymorphic virus is a complicated computer virus that affects data types and functions. It is a self-encrypted virus designed to avoid detection by a scanner. Upon infection, the polymorphic virus duplicates itself by creating usable, albeit slightly modified, copies of itself.” – technopedia

So, perfect. Your AV works by recognizing defined viral signatures…so the coders who created the virus know this and wr...

Mainly concerned about the system clock missing on my other screens its a bit of a deal breaker as there is no option for it.

Default behavior of windows 10 is having time on all of my screens. Anyway to fix this? Im using the "Diamond" theme.

The issues with radeon settings are fine after I put per app ignore in here. But yeah radeon , and steam should be ignored as a standard setting (just some feedback) because they're so common and the skin actually breaks things with those application...

Roll-up is similar to minimize on a regular window.

I would like an Expand which would extend the fence to the bottom of the screen, sort of like maximize a window.

And a Restore back to the manually sized fence.

Couldn't wait 'til after Christmas, which apart from Christmas Dinner and Christmas Pud is just another day for me these days. We'll just have a quiet dinner and day here among ourselves, and maybe visit or get a visit from my sister.  Other than that it'll be fairly non-eventful, which suits me fine.

So anyway, I've been wanting to rebuild for a while now, and earlier this evening I decided to bite the bullet and order the parts I want:

One of my fences is now positioned partly off-screen.  The title bar is above the screen and at least one column of icons is off-screen to the left.  How do I fix this?

To whom it may concern,

 

Currently we have three choices on the "Home" settings page:

* Create Fences with left mouse button only

* Create Fences with right mouse button only

* Create Fences with left and right mouse buttons

 

It's rare for me to create new Fences once I've created my favorite essential ones.

So would it be possible to have a fourth option "disable creating Fences with mouse button" so that both left and right buttons can function normally? In ...

When it comes to protecting my windows computer from malicious software, as well as my own identity when shopping online, i take antivirus protection quite seriously.

I've used various antivirus products over the years including Trend Micro, AVAST, AVG, Norton etc and I found them all great in their own ways. Norton was a bit slow, but it seemed to protect my PC quite well. 

I came across this antivirus review page by Computer Fixperts comparing the top antivirus produc...

Hi,

when starting the new Opera [51.0.2830.26] with WindowBlinds active, results in a white window with nothing else shown. However, the menus etc. can be clicked, if you know where to click. As I mentioned nothing is shown as white windows. It's independent from the skin used. Excluding Opera did not resolve the matter, I had to deactivate WindowBlinds completely. The WindowBlinds version used is WindowBlinds 10.65 (048 - Windows 10 Edition) - 64 bit OS

Any advice is appreciated.

More meanderings and a really good find for the photographers among us.

Lightroom (Adobe) is a great piece of software for image improvement.

The article linked gives five alternatives which are free. I'm playing with two of them at the moment, and they are: RawTherapee and LightZone.

 

You can read about them on their sites. There are screen shots as well as help pages. Steep learning curves, but really good software.

Start10 is a popular choice for Windows 10 users who appreciate the look and feel of the classic Windows 7 Start menu. Its range of customizations and options make it an ideal choice to install with the OS. I wanted to focus on one feature in particular today, which is using custom images for the Start button. Start10 already includes several options for you to choose from, and there are many more available for download at WinCustomize.
