Venezuela's twin quakes push death toll above 4,000 as UN mobilizes aid

The death toll from back-to-back earthquakes in Venezuela has surpassed 4,000 (at least 4,118 killed) with thousands injured and many missing, as rescue teams pause and families continue searching amid widespread destruction in La Guaira; a 7.5-magnitude quake struck 39 seconds after a 7.2-magnitude event on June 24. The UN is appealing for about $300 million to aid 1.3 million people, and direct damage to housing and infrastructure is estimated at $37 billion, highlighting a massive recovery effort hampered by weakened state services and political tensions over the government’s response.

Heatwave headaches hid a ruptured brain tumor in a teen

A 17-year-old girl mistook dehydration headaches during a heatwave for dehydration, but a CT scan revealed a slow-growing brain tumor (a dermoid cyst). She had a craniotomy to remove it, but three blood vessels were cut during surgery, causing a stroke and paralysis on her left side. After months of physiotherapy, she regained movement and even resumed dancing; her family is fundraising for intensive private neurorehabilitation as NHS rehab limits posed challenges.

Windows 11 gains USB-free Cloud Rebuild to reinstall OS and drivers over the internet

Microsoft is adding a new recovery option for Windows 11 called Cloud Rebuild. It lets you reinstall the OS and your device drivers via the internet (no USB drive), even if Windows won’t boot. The process downloads the Windows image and drivers from Windows Update and installs them as a clean slate, without preserving apps or personal files. It’s in preview for Windows Insiders and is expected to roll out to all users in coming months; Reset this PC remains the option to download a cloud OS with data retention, but Cloud Rebuild focuses on a full OS reinstall.

Windows 11’s new recovery feature may eat up to 50GB, but it powers quick fixes for boot loops

Windows 11’s new recovery feature may eat up to 50GB, but it powers quick fixes for boot loops

Microsoft’s Windows 11 Point-in-time Restore is a built-in OS-recovery feature that creates daily OS-volume restore points to help fix boot loops. It arrives with the June 2026 KB5095093 update and, on 200GB+ OS drives, auto-enables after the June/July updates. It can use up to 50GB of disk space (2% of disk size, with a floor of 2GB and a ceiling of 50GB), allocated on demand via VSS and reserved storage. Restore points are kept for 72 hours by default, with enterprise IT admins able to adjust frequency and retention. The feature only affects the OS volume and does not touch secondary drives or cloud file synchronizations; restores run through Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) and can take about 30 minutes. Smaller drives (<200GB) stay off by default but can be enabled manually.
