Microsoft warns users Windows 10 support ends soon, these are your options
Many were hoping that Windows 10 might still get another lease on life, but alas — that doesn’t seem to be the case. Microsoft has just started sending out emails to users who are still running Windows 10, and those emails make it quite clear that the end-of-life (EOL) period of the beloved operating system is coming to an end. Microsoft’s advice? Upgrade to Windows 11 ASAP.
Windows Latest received an email from Microsoft, titled: “End of support for Windows — what you need to know.” This message was likely sent out to many more users, and may keep popping into people’s mailboxes as Microsoft keeps rolling out the alert.
In the email, Microsoft announces that the end of support for Windows 10 is approaching. After October 14, 2025, Windows 10 will no longer get free software updates, technical support, and security fixes. You can still keep getting updates if you pay for it, though.
Windows Latest As per the Microsoft messaging, the users are left with two choices: Checking whether their current PC is eligible for the Windows 11 upgrade or buying a new PC. The reality is a little more harsh than it sounds. Many computers will not meet the new system requirements for Windows 11, which will leave users exposed to malicious attacks over time as new security patches will no longer be a thing. Microsoft’s suggestion to buy a new PC is sound, but not within reach for every user.
The email comes with a brief FAQ section that advises users to trade in their old PCs or recycle them. Microsoft also clarifies that a Windows 10-based PC won’t just stop working, which, although entirely unsurprising, is good news. The bad news is the lack of updates, which will eventually force all Windows 10 fans to swap to Windows 11.
Microsoft promises that Windows 11 is the “most secure Windows ever built,” inviting people to upgrade. It also promotes OneDrive, which seems unrelated to the content of the email.
There’s no denying it — Windows 10 is going away soon. However, many people are still using the OS, and those users will be faced with either buying a new PC (if their current computer can’t run Windows 11) or dealing with the lack of security updates.
Microsoft might make your PC specs easier to understand
Microsoft released another preview build of Windows 11 this week, and someone has noticed an interesting addition to the system settings. There is now a FAQ section beneath the device specifications list, providing handy information about the practical impacts of your specs.
New Frequently Asked Questions list in Settings > System > About hidden in builds 26120.3576 and 22635.5090. Has some questions related to the Windows version and device specs. (vivetool /enable /id:55305888)

For instance, the questions address how RAM can affect your PC’s performance and the tasks it can handle, and how GPUs can elevate your gaming experience. It also lets you know in nice natural language whether you’re on the latest version of Windows.
Spotted by Bluesky user phantomofearth, this feature could be great for users who aren’t knowledgeable about PC specs — we all need to look at them sometimes but lots of us won’t get any useful information from that cryptic list of specs without googling all the keywords first.
With this FAQ, users will hopefully be able to get all of the information they need without leaving the page. We can see that the first question “Am I running the latest version of the Windows OS?” is dynamic — it changes depending on the user and the state of their PC. We don’t know yet, however, how dynamic the rest of the questions are or what other variations there could be. Microsoft hasn’t mentioned this feature on the preview build’s support page, so we only know about it because someone stumbled across it.
Test features that appear in preview builds are never guaranteed to go public but hopefully, this one will manage to survive. For a society of computer users, our computer literacy rates are pretty low, so it’s important for the biggest operating system in the world to improve accessibility wherever possible.
At the same time, we should probably look into teaching people more about computers as well — at this point they are pretty much essential for survival, so teaching children the practical aspects of how they work and how to use one is essential as well.

Exclusive: SemperVirens raises $177 million fund focused on healthcare and workforce tech
Before starting SemperVirens in 2018, Robby Peters worked for a consulting firm named Sequoia. In the world of venture capital, the name was, quite famously, already in use, so Peters and his cofounder went with a different name for their new VC firm: the Latin word for sequoia trees.
“Their roots are pretty low, they don’t go long but they hold together,” Peters told me. “It really aligns with our model, which is building big impact, but doing it by creating a real community and ecosystem approach for tying everything together.”
Venture firms are known for their platforms, or helping startups on everything from hiring to public relations to lobbying lawmakers. Peters argued that SemperVirens’ main value add to its portfolio companies is helping them with their go-to-market strategy, or finding customers, with much of the sourcing coming from SemperVirens’ own network of advisors and affiliated companies. That includes 200 senior executives at Fortune 500 companies, as well as a base of strategic investors in the fund itself that include corporate venture firms (new ones for the latest fund are ADP Ventures, MetLife, and Cigna).
SemperVirens focuses broadly on what it describes as “work tech,” which can include anything from healthcare to payroll to insurance (hence the new partners coming on board). Allison Baum Gates, a New York-based general partner at SemperVirens, pointed out that the largest employer in almost every state is a healthcare company, and all need the services that the firm’s other types of companies offer. “We’re excited about where they interact,” she said.
Midi Health, which helps women with insurance-covered care for symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, is one such portfolio company. Midi just closed a $60 million Series B last year led by Laurene Powell Jobs’ Emerson Collective with participation from SemperVirens. Another is Thatch, which helps companies to provide tax-free money to their employees to purchase their own healthcare plans and raised a $38 million Series A last year led by Index Ventures and General Catalyst.
And while other venture firms essentially function as connectors (as well, of course, as helpful sources of capital), SemperVirens insists its unique lane is helping early startups find larger companies that need their services but might not even know they exist. Peters said the first wave of venture decades ago brought money, and the second, more recent wave added operations and talent expansion.
“We really look at [SemperVirens] as almost a VC 3.0 type of a thing,” said Peters. “What if we can really help these companies understand all of the different intricacies and help them drive revenue, but do it in a way that the whole ecosystem is really asking for.”
$141 million of the new fund will go to core investing, which primarily targets seed to Series B, and the remainder will be used as a growth opportunity vehicle to double down on existing portfolio companies or later-stage startups. SemperVirens has already deployed around 30% of the fund, which had its final close in January. This is their third core fund.
Baum Gates said that while they have generated returns for their limited partners from early exits, most of their distributions have come from secondary sales, or selling their existing, private stakes in startups to other investors. “The public markets have changed a lot over the last decade, she said. “You have to be more creative and committed to creating liquidity that doesn’t necessarily rely on the IPO window.”

Here are 5 easy ways I add protein to my breakfasts, from upgrading dinner leftovers to bowls of cereal.

- As a dietitian, I love protein-packed breakfasts and always try to eat protein in the morning.
- I like having Greek yogurt bowls, overnight oats, or smoothies on when I don’t want to cook.
- Sometimes, I reheat parts of my dinner leftovers for breakfast to hit my protein goals.
As a busy dietitian, having protein at breakfast is non-negotiable for me. In fact, I view it the same way as brushing my teeth in the morning.
Getting enough protein is important one for one’s overall health and wellbeing. It can help with stabilizing blood-sugar levels, building muscle, regulating appetite, and more.
Although having protein with every meals is ideal, getting enough of it at breakfast is especially important. By doing so, you can feel more satisfied with your meal and have more energy throughout the day.
Here are the easiest ways I incorporate protein into my breakfasts.
Greek yogurt is my favorite no-cook food to get enough protein in the morning.Greek yogurt with granola and fruit is an easy breakfast. Rachel Hosie
I try to always have Greek yogurt in my fridge to use as a base for a protein-packed breakfast.
I usually choose options from the Oikos Pro brand, which has flavored yogurts with at least 20 grams of protein and no added sugar. Sometimes, I even just use a plain, nonfat Greek yogurt.
Either way, I top my yogurt with whatever fruit I have on hand, sunflower-seed butter, and a bit of granola. This combination keeps me full for hours.

Overnight oats are fantastic for fueling me through the day. I like to prepare a few batches at the start of the week so that I can grab them quickly on fast-paced mornings.
I make mine with oats, ground flax seeds, milk, Greek yogurt, vanilla, and protein powder. After mixing those ingredients together and allowing them to sit overnight, I top my oats with fruit the next day and enjoy.

Cereal is rarely filling on its own. Many varieties primarily consist of carbohydrates, which can leave us feeling unsatisfied soon after eating.
I don’t eat cereal often, but when a craving hits, I try to honor it while packing in protein to prevent a blood-sugar crash later in the day.
First, I start with a higher protein cereal. Before adding my milk, I use a frother to mix a scoop of protein powder into it. Then, I top my bowl with fruit and ground flax seeds.
I get that nostalgic cereal taste while also providing my body with extra protein and fuel.
Smoothies can be surprisingly filling depending on what you put into them.I usually add a scoop of protein powder to my smoothies or use Greek yogurt as my base. Xsandra/Getty Images
I wouldn’t have a smoothie without protein for breakfast, but the good news is that it’s super easy to make sure it’s in there. I like using protein powder or Greek yogurt.
If you find it hard to eat in the morning yet want to get some nutrition in, try adding more protein to your usual smoothie to make it feel more satisfying.
Sometimes, I just repurpose dinner leftovers for breakfast.Last night’s dinner could be today’s protein-packed breakfast. Luc TEBOUL/Getty Images
There’s no rule that breakfast needs to be eggs, toast, or other traditional foods many of us associate with the first meal of the day.
In my house, it’s normal to heat up leftovers from the night before and eat them the next morning. Plus, it’s convenient and a nice way to avoid food waste.
My typical dinners usually feature chicken, lean beef, or salmon, which makes it super easy for me to hit my protein target.
Leftovers can also be easy to customize and turn into a new dish by adding eggs, seasonings, veggies, or hot sauces.
Read the original article on Business Insider Elon Musk says Tesla protestors are ‘deranged’ and want to kill him for his White House work
- Elon Musk condemned protestors attacking Tesla facilities, calling them “deranged” and attributing the backlash to his involvement with the White House’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). He suggested the attacks were politically motivated, blaming left-leaning individuals who oppose his alignment with President Trump, while also speculating that larger forces are funding the protests.
Elon Musk has slammed protestors targeting Tesla factories, calling those attacking the EV maker “deranged” for their actions.
Tesla has been subject to a boycott as its CEO, Musk, has increasingly grown his influence in the White House through his leadership of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Criticism has piled up against Musk, the richest man in the world, not only because of the action DOGE is taking but also because he is not a democratically elected official.
The result has been that—contrary to the stock surge the EV maker enjoyed when President Trump won the election—Musk’s business is now subject to the public’s fury.
Tesla cars, showrooms, and charging points have been damaged beyond repair not only in the U.S. but also across Europe.
A couple of examples include Molotov cocktails being thrown at vehicles in Las Vegas, gunshots fired at a showroom in Portland, Oregon and charging points set on fire in Boston, Massachusetts.
In an interview with Fox News last night, Musk leveled the blame on politically left-leaning individuals who disagree with his alignment with a Republican politician.
“It’s really come as quite a shock to me that there is this level of hatred and violence from the left,” Musk said. “I always thought that Democrats were supposed to be the party of empathy and caring, and yet they are burning down cars, firebombing dealerships, firing bullets into dealerships, smashing up Teslas.”
This is a departure from the narrative previously touted by the President and his allies, who claimed the electric vehicle industry was the work of the left.
For example, in 2023, President Trump said EVs were “the idea of the Radical Left Fascists, Marxists, & Communists,” adding that within three years, the vehicles would all be made in China.
“Tesla is a peaceful company,” Musk continued to Fox News. “We’ve never done anything harmful. I’ve never done anything harmful, I’ve only done productive things.”
He went on to call the protestors “deranged,” adding: “There’s some kind of mental illness going on because this doesn’t make any sense.”
Musk went on to say he believed there are “larger forces at work” behind the attacks, asking: “Who is funding this? Who’s coordinating it? This is crazy, I’ve never seen anything like this.”
Why are people boycotting Tesla?
Musk, who is worth $303 billion, said he believes his company is being targeted because of his work with the White House.
“It turns out when you take away … people’s money that they are receiving fraudulently, they get very upset. They basically want to kill me because I’m stopping their fraud, and they want to hurt Tesla because we’re stopping this terrible waste and corruption in the government,” Musk continued. “Well I guess they’re bad people. Bad people do bad things.”
Fraudulent payments doled out by the government have become a central argument in the justification for DOGE, with Musk and President Trump claiming social security payments being made to deceased individuals was a “huge” problem.
While previous administrations have admitted that fraudulently claiming social security is an issue, reports have provided wider context around the claims that “millions and millions” of people are doing so.
For example, a 2024 report from Social Security’s inspector general found that from 2015 through 2022, Social Security paid almost $8.6 trillion in benefits and made approximately $71.8 billion (0.84%) in improper payments. The majority of these were overpayments to people who are still alive.
Work was also being done ahead of Musk’s appointment to claw some of these funds back—in January, for example, a data-sharing scheme between the Social Security Administration and the Treasury Department prevented and recovered $31 million, bound for accounts of deceased individuals.
It seems that, in Musk’s opinion, it is the people who benefitted from such oversights that are now targeting his private sector interests.
