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 ...

A speeding black hole is birthing baby stars across light years

Astronomers think they have discovered a supermassive black hole traveling away from its home galaxy at 4 million mph — so fast it's not doing what it's notorious for: sucking light out of the universe. Quite the opposite, possibly. Rather than ripping stars to shreds and swallowing up every morsel, this black hole is believed to be fostering new star formation, leaving a trail of newborn stars stretching 200,000 light-years through space . Pieter van Dokkum, an astronomy professor at Yale University, said as the black hole rams into gas, it seems to trigger a narrow corridor of new stars, where the gas has a chance to cool. How exactly it works, though, isn't known, said van Dokkum, who led research on the phenomenon captured by NASA 's Hubble Space Telescope accidentally. A paper on the findings was published last week in The Astrophysical Journal Letters . “What we’re seeing is the aftermath," he said in a statement . "Like the wake behind a ship, we’r...
