Wow, #Element (the flagship #Matrix client) dropped support for #Firefox ESR in release 1.11.70. Or rather, they never supported it in the first place, only supporting "last two versions". The change causes a corrupted session for ESR users, and can't be reverted to fix it.

(Note that all Debian Stable users, by default, run Firefox ESR. This is kind of a big deal. ESR is always up to date on security, and gets new features once per year.)

They're managing the issue somewhat badly: github.com/element-hq/element-…

The best we've gotten so far, from a dev caught in the middle:

« Element devs follow the policy set out by people that manage them, they get an input but they do not control the policy. »

Nothing from their employer, whoever that is.

Folks laughing because this is happening to Windows… top comment on HN says this happened to Linux systems using Crowdstrike in April: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4… just didn’t have the widespread impact.

Never mock competitors or whatever over this kind of thing: everybody gets their turn in the barrel.

The ICJ ruled in short, Israel is:
an Apartheid state
occupying Gaza
illegally annexing the West Bank &EJ
violating self-determination

This is illegal, so it must:
end the occupation
fully repair/compensate Palestinians, including through right of return & dismantelling settlements

on Apartheid: "Measures to accomplish separation between settlers & Palestinians CONSTITUTE BREACH OF ART. 3 of Convention on Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination"

Israel has an obligation to cease all new settlement activity, repeal all legislation creating discrimination, all measures aimed at modifying demographics of territory, provide full reparation (restitution, compensation &/or satisfaction)

Restitution: return the land, assets, cultural property. Evacuation and dismantelling of all settlers and allow return of Palestinians If the Restitution is impossible, Israel must compensate all natural or legal persons having suffered damage

This (mostly) isn't servers, but things like checkin kiosks, computers in hospitals, self-checkout screens, large displays that show departing flights etc.

A vast majority of those have historically been running on Windows, as they're essentially computers with a GUI, but running one specific app, and Windows GUI development and system administration is just what people had experience with. You could do Linux for sure, but desktop Linux is notoriously brittle.

New appliances like these aren't always Windows any more, some places use Android, some places use Linux, some places even do iPads, there's a much wider variety, but there's still plenty of Windows left.

Canyon uvedl na trh nový Aeroad. Zajímavý vylepšený kokpit. Cena už tolik ne, Canyon už nepatří mezi výhodné nákupy, navíc prodává jen on-line a prakticky nemá lokální servisy. Aeroad je při stejné sadě (např. SRAM Force AXS) dražší než SuperSix (pravda, má powermeter a jako obutí Pirelli P Zero, ale zase nemá v ceně držák computeru).
