Imagine your computer is a house. Microsoft is the builder, and every month they send out locksmiths and trades to fix broken windows, reinforce doors, and patch up any weak spots that burglars might use to gain access.
But one day, Microsoft stops sending help. You are in a Windows 10 suburb, they say, the Windows 10 suburb is too old. They’ve moved on to a newer suburb: Windows 11. The old houses still stand, but they’re no longer maintained.
Now picture a thief discovering a clever way to break into a house in Windows 11. Microsoft quickly sends locksmiths and repair crews —locks it up tight. But in doing so, they unintentionally publish the break-in details. These details apply to older suburbs too (Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, etc).
And here’s the twist: while the new suburb gets reinforced, the old one doesn’t. Every criminal online now knows how to get in, and the doors in Windows 10 are open.
Merry Christmas!

There is an e-waste depot that you can drop your electronic goods off in Ultimo, Sydney. It is open on allocated days throughout the year. For more information on what days the depot is open or to find out more about how to recycle your e-waste read this brochure from the City of Sydney’s website. Or visit Planet Ark’s website for your closest recycling facility. 2) Invest in long-lasting appliances and maintain them so you get a longer-life out of them: “You can save money and reduce energy use by buying the right appliance for your needs and using it efficiently. The position of the appliance, how you operate it and how you maintain it all affects how much energy is used – for example, placing your refrigerator next to your oven will make it work [&hellip
