"Sure...commerce takes a hit...and that's a negative" That's it? Only negative is "commerce takes a hit?" Poor and dead is OK? "every transmittable disease is also reduced" except COVID? If all that stuff works so great for influenza, why not for COVID? Lots of places where COVID is rampant & flu way below norms.

Those beach/saltwater virus strains are bugger all. What you report does not falsify my hypothesis/suspicion. Only time will tell. Lockdowns have negative trade-offs that have not really been fairly acknowledged, let alone been objectively measured. That's not being a 'denier' (which I consider a garbage term, no offense). There are pretty dramatic cultural and demographic differences, to say the least, but my state is roughly comparable to Victoria in popu

Very dubious about the concept of 'containment'. My bet is that it is an effective delaying strategy at best. Be interesting to see what happens when Oz decides to open back up, unless they choose to live forever in lockdown. Which would also be interesting.

They will get away with it, too. No consequences. Will happen again. They just got caught flat-footed in 2016, lulled by the polls & faux media momentum.

Medical martial law in the name of 'public health interests' is bad enough already. We don't need any more control tools.

Looks like you are on version 2004, which was the problematic version on my laptop. Not saying that is for sure the problem with your rig, but it might be worthwhile to roll back to 1909 & see if those issues go away - doing that fixed the issues I was having on the laptop with 2004. Seems Win10 updates can affect different machines in different ways. Can always re-update to 2004 later if that turns out to not be the source of your troubles. Good luck!

Don't know which version of Win10 you're running, but the 2004 version really screwed things up on my laptop while causing no apparent issues on my desktop, both relatively young Dell machines. Open dialogs would take 3-4 seconds to paint, some applications would launch and immediately disappear locking the machine up in the process. Had to roll back to 1909 on the laptop to resolve the problems. Just in case it's the OS updates & not SD's software, which is running wi

I wouldn't trust any such device from Amazon, or Google. I know, I trust Amazon with my credit card info every day it seems, but... YMMV.

Broken record here but transparency/blur effects don't appear at all on my Dell Inspiron 13-7378 Win10 Pro 1909 laptop with the 1.1 release. Currently using Dark Waters style, dark mode, but doesn't work with any other style I've tried either. Transparency & blur work now on my Optiplex 3060 desktop rig with Win10 Pro 2004, however, with the 1.1 release.

The first machine is a Dell Optiplex 3060 Desktop running Win10 Pro 2004. Universal apps have to be excluded on both machines. On the Dell Inspiron laptop, after uninstalling, rebooting and re-installing the beta, there was an Explorer window open beneath the config dialog & transparency was immediately applied to it when I clicked Apply in the Advanced Settings dialog. Transparency has failed with all subsequent launches of Explorer, however.

Just installed the beta on my Dell Inspiron 13-7378 laptop running Win10 Pro 1909 and Explorer trans doesn't work at all. Also have to exclude Universal Apps. Just FYI.

Current situation, still having not run purge/reinstall: Over time, the latency of transparency on initial opening of an explorer window has shortened to a few milliseconds with an initial flash of white in each frame. It seems that if a sufficient period of time has passed since last launch the initial launch trans works. If I close the initially-opened explorer window and immediately launch Explorer again, transparency will not appear until a click event, on Explorer i

Thanks, basj. Latency issue remains after explorer restart and with standard blur, acrylic blur and basic transparency. No wallpaper manager, Deskscapes or WallpaperEngine. Only other SD app running at the time is Start10. It's a Dell Optiplex 3060 desktop with OEM Intel video.
