Reply to World's first commercial biological computer is here, powered by human brain cells in Science & Tech Stardock Forums

The Final Spark article talks about the reduced amount of energy (electricity) required, as compared to traditional AI systems. This is very impressive, but as you say, ethical considerations are indeed controversial. It's also interesting that this research is taking place outside of the USA, by the Swiss and Aussie's. Is this a real image of the

Reply to Registered owner of v3; "Sorry, you do not qualify for upgrade pricing at this time." in Multiplicity Stardock Forums

Try going to your account product download page https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products , and see if Multiplicity 3 is listed there. If not, then you must have used a different email address for the purchase. If it is, and you still can't get the upgrade to work, you will need to raise a support ticket. Basj should be by shortly to help.

Reply to Abdi does it again... in Personal Computing Stardock Forums

If you look at where the development has been going, they seem to be implementing more features for AI, sharing, collaborating, and locating info from the past, catering to the Enterprise market. I know this is where they make their money on Windows, but that shouldn't dictate style. I read recently that software engineers are one the least sought after skills in demand these days, and the pay is not as good as other professions. Probably why Microsoft is unable to hire good people to

Reply to Abdi does it again... in Personal Computing Stardock Forums

Very cool! However, it's one thing to create a video with a beautiful UI, and quite another to write the code to implement the features. That being said, Microsoft should be able to accomplish this task with their wealth of human and AI resources. We shall see... [e digicons]*_*[/e]

Reply to Folder Portal like a Menu? in Fences Stardock Forums

[quote]I thought a Folder Portal set as a Roll-Up Fence would be close, but I still have to double-click the shortcuts in the Folder Portal to launch the apps. At least I don't have to launch a File Explorer window, but I wanted something even even quicker. [/quote] Have you considered using the Windows 10 style in Start11v2? That's pretty much how it works. It's rolled up until you click the start button, and then a single-click opens any shortcut.

Reply to Exclude icons that are not in a fence from being hidden in Fences Stardock Forums

It seems that what is happening when you use Quick-hide, Fences is toggling "Show desktop icons" in the context menu. So, it looks like Fences are treated as icon elements on the desktop to the OS. That is most likely why you have to exclude the individual desktop icons (or Fences) from Quick-hide on a one by one basis.

Reply to A Case for Improved Science using AI in Artificial Intelligence Stardock Forums

On the subject of Doom and Gloom. We, as humans, just need to keep an eye on the world's militaries to make sure AI is kept in check. In this particular case, super-bugs vs. antibiotics is one of the world's greatest challenges for the future of humanity. If AI can solve this problem, it will save countless number of lives, as this problem is only going to get worse over time. And what about the next pandemic? I totally understand the fear of AI, but with the knowledge of what

Reply to Fences 5.88 Release Feedback Thread in Fences Stardock Forums

I also had an issue similar to Jafo. If I had been a newbie, I might have panicked. I downloaded the installer from my Account Downloads. At some point, he installer opened a dialog that said something about an Update being available which I closed, and then a dialog opened at the bottom of the screen covering the "Installing Fences" info dialog. Upon closing it, finally the restart Windows appeared. It was not a good process to say the least. I believe something is amiss with he installer.</
