Well okay if one tenant is renting the whole building it's different.

The trick is, you don't flip it. You use an oven-safe pan, and when it's almost ready on the bottom, you put it in the oven on broil. It rises to a fluffier texture and it cooks properly on both sides without much effort.

For the SUM of your tenants' rent to pay for your mortgage and most of the upkeep? Probably fair.

For ONE tenant to cover the whole mortgage? Geez, that's not nice, to put it softly.

Thanks. I appreciate the encouragement. Maybe one day!

Though even snowboarding I haven't had the opportunity to go in years. It is pretty boring alone, after all.

My main issue is that the beginner's stance they teach you is trying to maintain a pie shape to reduce your speed as you go down. The problem is that the skis want to either be parallel, either go fully horizontal. It takes a ton of effort to resist the skis' tendency to align themselves that way, and the consequences for failure are dramatic.

There's assuredly a way to make it easier, but with the trauma I have, I'm not sure I'll want to give it another try.

Huh. I never had an instructor. But yeah to me standing on my toes or heels for a while isn't all that hard to me, even though I'm not in good shape. I guess that makes one (1) part of me that's not critically weak.

For what it's worth, it works on one of my two PCs. But yeah. Clearly not finished.

I never understood that. When snowboarding, you can just rotate to brake, and then you can just sit to take a break if you want. Heck, you can even do the leaf down a whole slope, easily and safely, and it's still kind of fun.

Meanwhile, skiing requires superhuman leg strength, even if you just want to go slowly, and will twist your legs in gruesome ways when you fall.

So... Many...

What a weird idea. I wonder how the dev who spent time on that feels.

If I were you I'd try to change every possible Windows display option I can on every possible monitor and change them back, in each possible combination of monitors plugged in/out.

There's a possibility there's an option that seems like it's set one way but it's actually not. It happens sometimes with Windows version changes.

I think you're mostly dealing with the consequences of DisplayPort monitors being considered disconnected entirely when off. I tried a display dummy adapter once, and it wouldn't go above 1080p, plus it didn't completely solve the issue.

It's really not an easy problem to solve. Using only HDMI all the time technically works, but very few computers offer more than 1 HDMI port.

A few ideas:

• Have you tried checking or unchecking the checkbox "Remember window locations based on monitor connections"?
• maybe this is the result of Windows putting all your windows on a screen with weird settings when the main one is off. Is this a laptop whose main screen you're not using for example? Is there anything else that could be considered a "monitor" on this machine? (Including any sort of software-based thing that would connect virtual monitors)? Maybe there IS something at a weird display resolution or scaling but it's hard to notice what.
• Disconnect the monitor manually and reconnect it. Is the issue the same? If not, the monitor itself may be doing weird things when the system tells it to go to standby.

Edit: Ugh didn't notice the below wasn't an option at first

~~There's a relatively easy workaround to SOME of it: disable the screen turning off after X minutes of inactivity, and replace that with a screensaver that's a black screen.~~

~~The screen will always be "on" , even though it won't be displaying anything, which will prevent your windows from being messed with when your PC times out due to inactivity.~~

~~But if your PC goes to sleep or you turn a monitor off, it won't help you.~~
