Set a blank screen saver?
Did I just get trolled?

That seems like a hack at best. Surely what I'm after is just a (deeply buried) setting somewhere.

Nope.

True, and if I were in an actual lounge, I would be talking about this very subject.

Why? The link you provided, along with 23 others, fall under the General Programming heading. Nothing about my question has anything to do with that.

Switch off the monitor?

Go into the power setting (available via the Control Panel), and select an appropriate power mode. You may customize that by setting how long until the screen turns off, and much more.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

That's a per-user setting. Each person's individual screensaver and power settings work. I'm looking for the setting(s) for when no one is logged in (i.e., the lock screen is shown).

Windows 8.1 default (system) lock screen customization - Super User[^] This is about windows 8, but it probably applies to windows 10 as well.

Start -> Settings -> Peronalization -> Lock Screen -> "Screen Timeout Settings" (may need to scroll the right part of the diag down).

I don't believe that's the case. But I could be wrong.

Turns out there are worse things than cancer.

It's nerve wrecking to see a grown man go below 40 kg.

Not sure if you mean Chemotherapy or the Radiotherapy when you say medicine, but both suck arse in so far as what they do to the patient while trying to cure them. Sorry to you and whomever it is that is close to you that is suffering through this.

Chemo in this case, it has destroyed so many things in him that he doesn't function any more.
My wife is completely destroyed knowing it's just a matter of time before her father is gone.

Unfortunately the chemo works by poisoning all the cells of the body in the hope that the cancer cells die first and you can then be pulled back from the brink before all the cells die. A horrible procedure but it has worked many, many times. Let's hope he is lucky.

Yes, they say that 70% die from the chemo, but 100% die from the cancer if left untreated, so it's still an easy enough choice. (Numbers may change depending on type of cancer)
Fil was among the 70%.

Condolences. Had radiation that was not too bad. Father had chemo that almost killed him. (But gave him a few more months). Co-worker's wife is 90 pounds (US) after (during) both.

While I realize it sucks... having no medicine at all is even worse. My mother was diagnosed with a malignant inoperable brain tumor back in the fall of 1998. No chemo available and only limited experimental radiation. She was dead after 4 miserable months.
On the flip side my lovely wife is 4 years removed from breast cancer. The chemo / radiation was painful for her and difficult for me to watch but she's cancer free and going strong.

Yes, I'm aware of reality. Doesn't make it sting any less though.
Lost my mom four years ago in the same circumstances, I guess that's affecting me just as much.
Give your wife an extra hug tonight, knowing how lucky you are!
