Microsoft's infamous Blue Screen of Death is finally going away for good
Microsoft has confirmed that it is killing off its iconic Blue Screen of Death (BSOD). The screen is something most Windows users (unfortunately) are all too familiar with—the azure shade that appears on a person's PC when Windows suffers a total system crash. He was buried in a mushroom casket. Soon he'll be part of the soil CEO of an $11 billion builder empire warns that these housing markets face a short-term oversupply Lifting the veil on the critical—and oft-times overlooked—factors driving AI growth Here's what you need to know about the death of the Blue Screen of Death. Though Windows has changed pretty radically since version 1.0 came out in 1985, several elements of Microsoft's operating system have stuck around in the four decades since, including file folders, scroll bars, resizable windows, and a blue screen that showed when something went wrong. Yes, the bane of Windows users everywhere has been a built-in part of the operating system in some form since the beginning. What is now known as the Blue Screen of Death debuted in Windows 1.0 in 1985, and since then, it has appeared on millions of screens—maybe billions around the world. The Blue Screen of Death has undergone several revisions over the decades, displaying different layouts and other data intended to help users identify the issue with their computer. And as it has sunk into the public consciousness, it's even been used by Microsoft's rivals to poke fun at the company. For decades, Apple's operating system for the Mac, currently known as macOS, has featured the Blue Screen of Death on the system icon representing networked Windows PCs. But it was last year that the Blue Screen of Death caught worldwide attention. The Blue Screen of Death appeared on Windows PCs around the world for days after the infamous CrowdStrike update that took down Windows machines across the globe. Unfortunately, Microsoft isn't killing off the Blue Screen of Death because the company has solved the problem of unexpected crashes and restarts. The BSOD screen will still exist on Windows going forward—just with a new color. After an update to the Windows operating system later this summer, the Blue Screen of Death will become, well, the Black Screen of Death. In a blog post announcing several steps that it is taking to enhance the Windows enterprise experience, Microsoft stated that the changes are 'part of a larger continued effort to reduce disruption in the event of an unexpected restart.' Specifically addressing the BSOD, Microsoft said it was introducing the simplified user interface to go along with a new, shortened recovery experience. 'The updated UI improves readability and aligns better with Windows 11 design principles, while preserving the technical information on the screen for when it is needed,' the company said. In its blog post, Microsoft said that the new Black Screen of Death will replace the Blue Screen of Death in the Windows 11 24H2 update. The company says that the update will be available on all compatible devices 'starting later this summer.' RIP, Blue Screen of Death. We knew you too well.

These 5 macOS settings are a security risk and you should turn them off now
Apple has a reputation for going to great lengths to set up hardware and software that is intended to protect its users – in fact, many people have falsely believed they don't even need antivirus software on their Mac because of how well the company protects its machines. However, that doesn't mean you shouldn't also know the ins and outs of your macOS system, particularly when it comes to the settings menu. Making a few tweaks and adjustments to the default settings can, in fact, keep your machine even better protected and more secure. It's easy to know how to do, easy to switch back and forth, and easy to keep your system better protected. Here are five ways to get started in better understanding your macOS security settings, and five settings that you should not leave on by default. You don't tell your neighbor where you're going all the time, or share your location with your boss or your mom. So why are you doing it with all the apps on your Mac? You should control which apps have access to your location – and only the essential ones should have that data. While some of them clearly need it to function (Maps, for example), others certainly do not and providing them with that information is just giving away data to advertisers or worse, hackers and data thieves. Take back your privacy and keep your computer more secure by making sure you have control over which apps have access to your location. Head to System Settings, then choose Privacy & Security in the sidebar. Select Location Services; from there you can toggle off all location services at once or toggle it off for individual apps as you please. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Much like with location, many apps may request access to your microphone or camera when they may not actually need it. You should absolutely review the permissions that each app has accessed – particularly microphone and camera settings – and feel free to toggle them off if their access seems iffy or is making you uncomfortable. You can always grant them permission again if you need it enabled for the app to function. Go to System Settings, and again, Privacy & Security in the sidebar. From there you should see a full listing of the functions and apps including photos, calendar, contacts, and camera and microphone. Clicking on each of these will bring up a list of which apps have access to that feature. If you don't want that app to have access, simply toggle it off. It may seem a little time intensive at first, but if you do it regularly enough you'll be familiar with what you want to have access to each feature and it won't take as long the following time. Siri is helpful, useful, friendly and always listening. And while your Mac keeps most of that data locally on your device, some of that data is inevitably sent to Apple for its servers to process to make Siri more accurate and functional. Which sounds okay–except if you're concerned about your privacy it sounds a little troubling. Some of that data could potentially include sensitive information from whatever you've been asking your personal digital assistant. If you'd like to shut off Siri, go to System Settings, scroll to Apple Intelligence & Siri then simply toggle off Siri. This will, of course, keep her from answering your questions and helping you with your queries, but if you don't use her frequently already then you probably don't need her listening all the time anyways. There are plenty of times when you may be somewhere and need to connect to a public Wi-Fi network – a hotel, an airport, a library. However you should be aware that any public Wi-Fi network is likely unsecured which means it leaves you vulnerable to having your data and sensitive information being intercepted. That means anyone else on that network can potentially view, or access, your passwords, emails or any other information like banking details. That's why you shouldn't let your Mac automatically connect to Wi-Fi: it could be joining insecure networks and leaving you in a risky situation. You should be making the assessment as to whether or not the connection is safe, or using a VPN. Either way, disable auto connect by going to System Settings, then select Wi-Fi from the sidebar. Find your trusted network in Known Network and click the three dots to change the auto connect settings for that network. From there you should be able to scroll down to Ask to join network settings and toggle it on. This means your Mac will ask before joining any networks. Ad tracking should always get shut off. Not only is it a performance and battery drain on your computer, but it can track your location, browsing history and other data in the background in order to serve you targeted ads – and if that makes you feel uncomfortable, it should. If any kind of malware or infostealer winds up on your system, this is going to provide them with a bunch of free personal data about you. In order to minimize the risk, turn it off by going to System Preferences, then Security & Privacy. Next, scroll down until you see Apple Advertising (it may be below the Analytics option). Just uncheck the box that says Personalized Ads to opt out.

iOS 26 brings big changes to your iPhone lock screen — what to expect
It's no secret that the look of your iPhone is going to change in the fall, thanks to the introduction of the new Liquid Glass interface ushered in by iOS 26. And that new appearance will be evident right away as you gaze at your iPhone's lock screen. iOS 26 brings those translucent elements and glassy typefaces to the lock screen that you'll find throughout the operating system update. But Apple is introducing a few other lock screen changes that should make your phone feel more dynamic even before you unlock it. It's certainly the most extensive change to the lock screen's look since the introduction of iOS 16 in 2022 that gave you the ability to customize the screen with widgets and other changes. I don't think the iOS 26 update introduces an overhaul on that scale, but the changes are significant enough that I've spent some time exploring them in the iOS 26 developer beta. Whether you've downloaded the iOS 26 developer beta yourself or you're waiting for the public beta to arrive next month, here's what you can expect once you've got iOS 26 installed on your phone and you're ready to dive into the lock screen changes. At WWDC 2025, Apple showed off Spatial Scenes, a photographic effect pulled from its visionOS software that adds depth to images. This 3D-like effect causes slight shifts in positioning as you shift perspective, giving the photo a multi-layered appearance. And it's now part of the iPhone courtesy of iOS 26. Specifically, you can convert an image in your photo library to a spatial scene, and then use that 3D-like image as the wallpaper for your lock screen. Not every iPhone capable of running iOS 26 will have access to Spatial Scenes — you'll need an iPhone 12 or later to pull off the look, which relies on advanced computer vision techniques powered by your phone's chipset. I'm not sure how well Apple's demo of Spatial Scenes came across during the WWDC keynote live stream, but seeing it in person in the iOS 26 developer beta drives home what an improvement this is. I've taken a decade-old photo of my daughter, converted it into a Spatial Scene and made that the lock screen wallpaper on my iOS 26 test device. As I move my phone, I can see the background shift behind her, and she practically seems to pop out of the phone. It definitely spruces up the look my home screen. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. To set a Spatial Scene as your lock screen wallpaper, you just create a customized lock screen in the same way you've been able to since iOS 16 debuted. Just press and hold on your lock screen and then tap the plus button at the bottom to create a new customized lock screen. Scroll down the list of featured wallpapers until you see a heading for Spatial Scenes. Under that header, you'll find a selection of photos that Apple's computer vision technology has identified as ideal for converting into a more 3D-like image. Once you select a photo, the Spatial Space conversion happens automatically. After it's done, you can pinch and zoom to crop the photo and adjust whether to extend the wallpaper or turn off the depth effect. From there, it's just a matter of making the usual adjustments to font, color, widget and Control Center shortcuts that you'd perform to finish customizing your lock screen. I should note that Spatial Scenes is not limited to the iOS 26 lock screen. You can also go into the iOS 26 Photos app and convert your existing 2D photos into Spatial scenes. Select a photo in your library and tap the Spatial Scenes icon just above the photo on the right side of your screen. The conversion to a Spatial Scene image happens automatically. If you've been bothered by the sight of your carefully curated photos leaving too much of a gap underneath the subject of the photo and the clock on the phone's lock screen, iOS 26 introduces a solution in the form of an adaptive time display. Now, Apple says that the size of the numerals in the clock will dynamic adjust to better fit into the scene. It's likely the vagaries of an early-stage developer beta, but I've found the adjustments only kick in when I do a little fiddling with my lock screen photo. Still, when I've gotten the effect to work, it's really quite eye-catching with the clock stretching to better accommodate my lock screen image. Playback controls on the lock screen have featured album art for a while now, but iOS 26 is giving them a boost that should pair nicely with the Liquid Glass interface that's now featured in the software. Artwork for some songs is now animated, and it's supposed to interact with the playback controls and their newfound glassiness. My guess is that this feature is largely geared toward newer albums either purchase through Apple's online store, or streamed via the Apple Music service as the album covers in my library — songs for Men of a Certain Age to mildly rock out too, basically — remain pretty static, even after the iOS 26 upgrade. However, a few of my daughter's downloads have found their way into my library and the album art for Olivia Rodrigo's "good 4 u" shimmers and vibrates as advertised.
