'Virtual Memory Paging File'
Comments (3)Thats a semi tuff one without knowing what you have for memory and processor and how big these files are... In general: Might want to Right click MyComputer, choose Properties. Choose the Advanced tab on top. Choose the Settings button under Performance. Choose the Advanced tab on the top. Look down at Virtual Memory and read that and you can click the settings a look at that. Many people with 1gb or under memory will set virtual memory to 1.5x actual physical installed memory. On both the initial size & the maximum size. That may stop windows from resizing it. If there's a noticable slowdown doing normal computer usage then you might want to read up some after setting it back to let windows handle it. Photo's and printing handling do use a lot of bytes. Perhaps you might consider adding additional memory to your computer if you frequently on a regular basis have this problem....See MoreAnyone Dislike Their Memory Foam Mattress?
Comments (185)Well, I'd be more worried about finding a replacement I love than getting rid of one I didn't, lol. I did buy a really nice mail order pure natural organic latex mattress that is really comfy. Firm on one side and a bit softer on the other, but neither is really soft like a memory foam or gel one is. Let me see if I can figure out the brand and will let you know. The first one they sent was an undersized queen and they promptly replaced it. The second one is better but they are not generous in their measurements. It's in a guest room and everyone seems to like it. I'll come back and post the name when I find it. eta: that was easy, it is Zenhaven. They have the Zenhaven and the Saatva hybrid; I got the Zenhaven. It is flippable, so should last almost a lifetime. The last pure latex mattress I had lasted 40 years, lol. Zenhaven...See MoreVirtual Funeral
Comments (29)Lkgrace, I'm so sorry. A fellow I graduated high school with, died a few days ago. Cancer, not covid. They made a video memorial for him, but not sure when they will have his service. I have only lived in very small towns...most of them rural. Funerals where everyone who knew the deceased shows up. If at a church, versus the funeral home, the ladies of the church prepare a meal in the fellowship hall, for the family and anyone who wants to attend. It is still common for people to bring food to the home of the deceased. I want to be cremated, versus buried. I don't want a funeral or memorial of any kind, but I think the way things are done in the small towns are very nice, and tho those things may eventually change, I don't think it will be any time soon....See MoreMemorial Service during COVID-19
Comments (21)Greetings gardener123 ... who may be uncertain about rows 4, 5 and 6 ... but knows for sure that wewantsophie, I am unsure, given your concern of reality coming at you like a freight train, as to whether you are somewhat expecting that your patriarch's continuing life in this dimension may be coming to an end. That is a very difficult issue that in the ordinary course of living we don't like to contemplate: including this character who, in reasonably good health, is (slightly) closer to 100 than to 80! Then you speak of should your worst fears being realized and proceed to consider post-death planning, which leads me to think that you are considering your worst fears to be his death. May I offer an alternative suggestion? Some aged people, having undergone a very serious illness and having pulled through, are left so seriously disabled that they consider their continuing life to be of very little value, with little prospect of improvement. In this current covid situation, which is especially hard on old people whose auto-immune systems are low, many have been left with serious lung issues on a continuing basis, making breathing extremely difficult. I think that some people left seriously disabled may consider that situation worse than death. Unaware as I am of your loved one's prospects should he survive, I am reluctant to offer the message above and hope earnestly that it does not give you more fear, uncertainty and pain. How pleased and thankful you must be to see the many tributes offered by so many people who felt blessed by his kindness. What a fine example he has offered to not only you, his loved ones, but to the community in which he lived, and we are in great need of such examples in these troublous times. Some have referred to faith connections but I do not find such a reference in your message. While you may not wish to consult funeral practitioners about the size of groups and other circumstances related to death, if you have connections to a faith group, if you consult those leaders, I'm sure that they will be able to offer such information. As has been said, likely there will be severely restricted numbers allowed at a funeral gathering these days so, especially considering his having touched the lives of so many in such a positive manner, that a celebration of his life at a later time, possibly on an anniversary, might please many. Thank you for sharing your current pain with us. I hope that you find a measure of satisfaction, community spirit and peace of heart from having done so. I offer prayers on behalf of all of you at this stressful time and send my good wishes to you. In our area, news this morning was that 20% of our covid sufferers are inmates and staff of seniors' long term care facilities and 80% of deaths are seniors. ole joyful...See MoreElmer J Fudd
