    Microsoft released Windows 11 last year with a long list of system requirements. Of the listed ones, two controversial requirements were the supported CPUs and TPM. As a result, several users ended up modifying the Registry files to install Windows 11 on unsupported PCs. In the recent update, Microsoft has now started adding a watermark to the desktop and Settings app for those using Windows 11 on PCs that don’t meet the official system requirements. In this article, we have detailed the steps for how you can remove the “system requirements not met” watermark in Windows 11.

    RUSH: “Women with master’s degrees and doctorates are freezing their eggs because there are not enough educated men in the world, according to a new study. Researchers interviewed 150 women who were having their eggs frozen at eight clinics in the U.S. and Israel between June 2014 and August 2016. More than 80 percent of participants had college degrees.” Some have master’s, some have MD, PhD. And the lead author of the study, a professor at Yale, Marcia Inhorn, said, “There is a major gap. They are literally missing men. There are not enough college graduates for them. In simple...

  • Microsoft steps up Windows 10 nagging (MS Sez, Choose One: "Now" or "Tonight". Wait, what?)

    Fire up any computer running Windows 7 or 8 and you'll be used to a message or three inviting you to upgrade to Windows 10. But the latest pop-up screen doesn't even give you a choice. The large pop-up screen, which first appeared over the weekend, gives users the option of upgrading straight away or ... that evening. Users can still opt out by clicking on the red 'X' in the top right corner of the window, but less savvy computer users (part of Redmond's core market segments) might not figure that out. This is not a new idea; it's...
  • Listen to Rants of 'Nagsbo' Britain's Worst Wife as Neighbours Say 'She's Your Worst Nightmare'

    'She's your worst nightmare as a neighbour but imagine living with the beast of Butt Lane'The terrifying tirades of ­Britain’s most nagging wife have been laid bare – in tapes released by her long-suffering neighbours. The recordings were compiled as evidence against domestic bully Julie Griffiths over 18 months, helping to secure her five-year Asbo. The 43-year-old subjected husband Norman to years of verbal abuse that could be heard clearly in the street. Her vile temper would flare up over anything – and two riot vans carrying 20 cops once raced over as neighbours feared for Norman’s life. Griffiths has...

    My "Aha Moment" happened because of a package of hamburger meat. I asked my husband to stop by the store to pick up a few things for dinner, and when he got home, he plopped the bag on the counter. I started pulling things out of the bag, and realized he'd gotten the 70/30 hamburger meat - which means it's 70% lean and 30% fat.

    You've probably noticed by now that men are not perfect. In fact, it can sometimes seem that men are huge, great blobs of imperfection. In women's eyes men regularly do things wrong and are too lazy to do anything about it. But many of the mistakes men make are due to their not knowing they are mistakes in the first place. We only do them because our brain works differently from the female brain. Remember, unless you tell your Mr Imperfect that these things upset you, he'll carry on getting them wrong. 1. Being abrupt on the telephone. Men see...

    Most of Mrs. Bush's humor at the correspondents' dinner was just right: Edgy but not over the edge. But I think the stripper and horse jokes were totally beneath her. Just put it to the other-shoe test: If it were Teresa Heinz Kerry standing up on the dais telling the same jokes, the conservative commentariat would be buzzing for the rest of the year about what a tasteless skank she is.

    New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) has long been rumored as desperately seeking the democratic nomination for president in 2008. And while many political observers fully expect the power hungry former First Lady to hit the campaign trail within only a few months of being re-elected as a US Senator in 2006, US News & World report claims to have a confirmation of sorts. From USNews.Com's Washington Whispers: Hillary's in… You don't have to take it from us about Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton 's desire to run for president.

    <p>A womens group fired the first legal salvo against the Bush administration's marriage-promotion agenda yesterday, filing a civil rights complaint that a government-funded program discriminates against women.</p> <p>The NOW Legal Defense and Education Fund charged that a pro-marriage program, the Family Formation and Development Project in Allentown, Pa., provides employment services to males only. That constitutes a violation of Title IX, the group claims, because the law prohibits discrimination based on gender in any government-funded program.</p>

    Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) delivered her sharpest attack yet on President Bush's handling of foreign policy - reviving speculation she may challenge him for the presidency. Clinton's speech slammed Bush for excessive secrecy that she suggested shields the American people from the truth about Iraq and 9/11 intelligence failures. She even suggested the administration was trying to hide casualty figures in the Iraq war. "We must always be vigilant against letting our desire to keep information confidential be used as a pretext for classifying information that is more about political embarrassment," she said. The hard-hitting tone of her comments come...
