Your computer isn’t slow because it’s old.

It’s slow because Windows ships with 15+ hidden settings draining your speed by default.

Change these 9 and it will run like new again.

Most people have never touched them.

Why Did China Just Slash 12,000 University Courses? Africa, Watch and Learn
According to data from China’s Ministry of Education, universities across the country have revoked or suspended roughly 12,200 undergraduate programmes between 2021 and 2025. That’s more than 30% of all degree courses – a sweeping change designed to prepare graduates for an economy increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence (AI) and new national industrial priorities. So, which subjects are bearing the brunt?
•Creative fields have been hit particularly hard: photography, animation, illustration and product design. The University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, for instance, suspended its product design major, explaining that AI now handles core tasks such as modelling and rendering with remarkable ease.
•Language programmes have also taken a knock. Majors in English, Japanese, German and translation have been significantly scaled back as machine translation tools have improved dramatically in quality and reliability.
•Other areas seeing cuts include marketing, public administration, human resource management and logistics management.
It’s worth noting that “suspended” or “revoked” doesn’t always mean these subjects are disappearing for good. In many cases, universities are simply pausing new admissions while they overhaul the curricula, turning them into more interdisciplinary, technology-focused programmes that better match today’s job market.
China is essentially pruning what it sees as outdated or easily automated courses to make room for what it believes the future demands. For African nations still expanding their higher education systems, there’s a clear signal here: relevance to the real economy matters more than ever.

I felt the marble floor of the mansion turn to water beneath my feet. Mateo shifted in my arms, restless, and I clutched him to my chest as if I could protect him from a storm that was already inside the house.

—“Dylan…” I whispered.
He didn’t answer.

His mother, Mrs. Carmen, approached with her eyes shining with a poisonous satisfaction.

—“Open it, son,” she said, almost savoring every word.
“Since Valerie wanted proof, let’s all know the truth.”

The guests stood motionless. Nobody breathed. The birthday clown stood with a half-inflated yellow balloon in his hands. The children’s music played softly, ridiculously, as if it were mocking us.

Dylan opened the envelope. I closed my eyes. I waited for the blow. I waited to hear the word negative out loud, bouncing off the high ceilings and the expensive furniture of the Arteagas.

But Dylan didn’t read the paper. He pulled out another sheet. A sheet I had never seen before. My heart stopped.

—“Before my mom starts celebrating,” he said, his voice clear, “I want to clarify something.”

Mrs. Carmen frowned. —“What is it?”

Dylan held up the sheet. —“This is not Mateo’s DNA test with me.”

Today, we continue with the commitment of acquainting ourselves with the prevailing state of innovation funding in Uganda. I will continue to work with my teams to identify the existing bottlenecks, our strengths, and how we can engage with R&D.

We are organizing to capitalize on every commercial innovation that can increase production and steer the employment mix, which in turn brings socioeconomic empowerment and propels us toward the attainment of Vision 2040 (a USD 500 billion economy).

A love letter has allegedly ended a student’s life, leaving sadness and shock at Thomas Vocational Secondary School in Buruma, Rubirizi District.💔

Ankunda Shillah, the girl seen in the photo, is alleged to have committed suicide at school. that is what the family says they are being told.

The incident comes after the deceased was allegedly caught with a love letter and heavily punished with 80 strokes. She was later expected to appear before the school disciplinary committee today.

According to Bob, the deceased’s elder brother who is also a student at the same school, he says he last saw his sister on Monday after she was allegedly taken by the DOS and punished. When she did not show up on Tuesday, he reportedly tried to ask about her whereabouts and was allegedly told that she was in the dormitory. The same happened on Wednesday until students started shouting that his sister had hanged herself. Bob says he tried to enter and see his sister, but he was blocked and denied access by the metron and others and was later locked in a certain room until the body was taken by police and later taken to office forcing him to make a statement and to sign documents indicating that he had seen his sister but he refused.

Students at the school later staged a heavy strike following the incident demanding justice for their fellow student. Police reportedly arrived at the scene and fired bullets as tensions escalated, while the teacher accused of punishing the girl with 80 strokes allegedly ran away at the school alongside others.

The deceased’s mother also reportedly reached the mortuary at KIU International Hospital where the body is being kept. According to her, she could not see any signs that convinced her that the girl had hanged herself after trying to examine the body. She further alleges that her daughter had a heart problem, something she says the school was aware of, but despite knowing her health condition, they chose to beat and punish her heavily without considering her medical status even the days she never attended classes she was never called and yet they used to call her when is sick or missed aclass.

Dear Ugandans, kindly share this story widely so it can reach the right authorities and relevant institutions that can push for a thorough, transparent investigation and accountability into what happened at Thomas Vocational Secondary School.

The family of Ankunda Shillah is left in deep pain and is crying out for answers, clarity and justice following her tragic death. They deserve the truth, they deserve to be heard and they deserve proper intervention so that every detail is fully investigated and nothing is left in silence.

This Africa Wealth Report which notes that the total investable private wealth held on the African continent sits at approximately $2.4 trillion, got several mentions at the just-ended Friedrich Naumann Foundation’s “Transforming International Development Cooperation” conference at the Serena Hotel in Nairobi. There were no bombshells, but fascinating insights emerged nonetheless. Africa faces an annual infrastructure funding gap of roughly $68 billion to $108 billion. Mobilising even a small fraction of domestic private wealth could dramatically accelerate African self-sufficiency and economic development.

The strategists were suffocated along the way. Secondly, those supposed to give a go ahead pulled the plug along the way and made the timeline to be more futuristic than immediate.

@DuncanAbigaba I don't think Facebook closure led to this. It's evolution of content creation and love for followers that led to this.

Here's the car that people who actually know cars keep buying. A 2015 Subaru Levorg 1.6 GT-S EyeSight at just UGX 55M.

With Subaru's Signature All Wheel Drive, Adaptive cruise control, collision warning built in and a station wagon body that makes every other car practical look boring.

It does not shout. It just handles everything better than you expect.
