Get Windows 11 Pro for under £20

Tablet with Windows

TL;DR: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro is on sale for £19.73, saving you 87% on list price.


Upgrading your operating system is a great way of renewing your computer with improved security and a nicer interface. The only problem is the price. Some computers can upgrade to Windows 11 for free, but if you want 11 Pro, it can get pretty expensive. That is, unless you get it while it’s on sale. If you want to upgrade your computer to Windows 11 Pro, you can do it for £19.73.

If you’re used to Windows 10, there’s a lot to explore with 11 Pro. A lot of these upgrades are security-based, so you can take advantage of things like Bitlocker encryption, wake and lock, and support for biometric login. These especially could be great for professionals because it means you can lock your data down tight, walk away from your computer safely without fully logging out, and login using your fingerprint. Keep in mind, biometrics only work on computers with hardware that supports it. As cool as it would be, Windows 11 Pro won’t install a fingerprint scanner on your computer. 

Some of the other fun features to look out for are a refined user interface, snap layouts, widgets, better integration for Microsoft Teams, and there’s even improved touchscreen support. 

Important: before you buy, make sure your computer can actually support 11 Pro. Check all hardware specifications, and keep in mind that if your computer is running Windows 10 and can’t use Windows Update to upgrade to Windows 11, 11 Pro isn’t going to work either. 

Help your computer feel a little newer. Score Windows 11 Pro for just £19.73.

When the clocks change for Daylight Saving Time, and why we do it at all

The clocks on our smartphones do something bizarre twice a year: One day in the spring, they jump ahead an hour, and our alarms go off an hour sooner. We wake up bleary-eyed and confused until we remember what just happened. Afterward, "Daylight Saving Time" becomes the norm for about eight months (And yes, it's called "Daylight Saving" not "Daylight Savings." I don't make the rules). Then, in the fall, the opposite happens. Our clocks set themselves back an hour, and we wake up refreshed, if a little uneasy.  Mild chaos ensues at both annual clock changes. What feels like an abrupt and drastic lengthening or shortening of the day causes time itself to seem fictional. Babies and dogs demand that their old sleep and feeding habits remain unchanged. And more consequential effects — for better or worse — may be involved as well (more on which in a minute). Changing our clocks is an all-out attack on our perception of time as an immutable law of ...

The Shortcut AI Excel agent could one-shot spreadsheet jobs. Heres how to try it.

There's a new AI agent on the block for people who spend their waking hours inside spreadsheets. Navigate to Shortcut AI's website , and you'll find a page that looks almost exactly like an empty Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. The main difference is a sidebar chatbot that can be tasked with taking on the tedious legwork of building, say, complex financial models or competitive analyses. Because Shortcut is agentic , meaning it can handle multi-step tasks on the user's behalf, the tool can do more than just generate Excel formulas or analyze spreadsheet data. In a demo on X, Nico Christie, founder and CEO of the Shortcut AI agent, showed how the tool swapped out the data from a Microsoft distributed cash flow analysis (DCF) for Google data by looking up Google's SEC filings and populating the data in the same template. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Shortcut launched on Monday with a rather ominous tagline: "Try...

Mystery Pixel smartphones detailed in code references

The devices also pack 12GB of RAM apiece. Shiba is said to feature a screen with a resolution of 2,268 x 1,080 pixels while Husky could be a bit larger at 2,822 x 1,344 pixels. Given the amount of RAM, however, both would likely qualify as premium devices. from TechSpot https://ift.tt/cefMDJW via
