Firefox 116 drops Windows 7 and 8, as well as macOS 10.1

[NikoB]

Because I always prove you wrong, and you don't like when people point out your wrong

It's funny, because it was you who left the discussions that had begun, realizing that you had lost to me outright. Readers know who really won and it's definitely not you. =)

And again, you don't need to check every line of code. You simply don't understand how open source works at all. Every patch is reviewed by multiple people and 3rd party security audit companies.

Of course, how can I, an IT professional with a specialized system education, who has written at least hundreds of thousands of lines of code, understand how open source works. Bot, you are funny.

Unfortunately, most people buy their computers from OEMS. And none offer no-os option unless you opt for the much more expensive business laptops. Aka, most people buy windows, even if it is against their will.

You can not impose anything on the consumer against their will. After all, the US is a free country, isn't it? And the OS is easily separated from the hardware, including the price, right? This means that anyone can force to sell a product without unnecessary services imposed on it in the form of unnecessary software. Is not it? Or in the US, idiotic laws and idiotic people who in reality do not solve anything?

Why does it happen that you are forced to use the bundled software, although it is clearly separated from the hardware? So your "civil" society, in a particular country, is infinitely stupid and unable to correct the situation legislatively at the level of consumer laws.

I personally easily returned money for Windows in my country, which they tried to impose on me as part of laptops.

I am well aware that windows 10+ has been free

But 8-8.1 has never been free, again A is lying

even windows 8 was free

ou never asked. Around 6% for desktop.

Q.E.D. Girlish memory in A...

Most constitutions predate software, so your statement is outright ridiculous.

Also, do understand when you pay for patches you per computer. In case of windows 7 it was $175-350 for 3 years per computer. So no, asking them to publish the patches is ridiculous. Windows isn't open source where under open source licenses, anyone who gets software has the right to redistribute it to others.

It's funny how you defend the closed source windows, then demand that it work like open source.

It's funny that you simultaneously understand that the Constitution is older and a priori stronger than any small-town law, if it contradicts it, and at the same time you assert the opposite. The funny thing is that a significant part of the judiciary and lawyers behave in the same schizophrenic way, directly violating the Constitution of all countries.

Any provisions of the license agreement that contradict (hierarchically) consumer legislation, civil, criminal codes and, as a result, the Constitution are automatically void.

The use of antiviruses depends on what you do on your computer, if you just go to youtube all day, your chance of getting a virus is slim to none. Your chance increases more as you go outside into websites general (especially if you don't use an adblocker), open up attachments or download software from the web from unknown sources (more so if its illegal software).

Overall though, note that your pc could be infected without you knowing. As these days many pcs are simply used as zombies for attacking other computers.

That said, these days Windows Defender is secure enough for 99% of the population. Back in the day it wasn't so good, but now it gets scores of 99.8% or so compared to the best antivirus giving you 99.9%.

Again, demagogic verbiage from A and not a cent of useful information. ))

I am not sure what you mean by "left the discussions", now there may have been some discussions that I have not responded simply because I didn't notice it slip off the front of the forum page. But same applies to you, plenty of discussions you have stopped responding.

Of course, how can I, an IT professional with a specialized system education, who has written at least hundreds of thousands of lines of code, understand how open source works. Bot, you are funny.

Hundreds of thousands of lines of html? markup or matlab? You clearly don't understand how open source works

A lot of people are confused with the term US has of a "free country", that freedom goes both ways. What that means is that while you may have the freedom to buy anything you want (that isn't illegal), the seller also has the right to sell you anything they want (as long as it isn't illegal). Aka, don't want your laptop with windows preinstalled? Don't buy it.

That said, being able to call up the manufacturer and get a refund for windows isn't much cause less than 1% will actually do that. They just use whatever the computer comes with.

PS Our supreme court has ruled that money = freedom of speech, so that should tell you where we stand on consumer protection

Q.E.D. Girlish memory in A...

What does windows 8 being free or not have to do with firefox marketshare? And I know windows 8 was free because I installed it on a test computer to do testing of software, and it worked for years up until I upgraded it to 10.

It's funny that you simultaneously understand that the Constitution is older and a priori stronger than any small-town law, if it contradicts it, and at the same time you assert the opposite. The funny thing is that a significant part of the judiciary and lawyers behave in the same schizophrenic way, directly violating the Constitution of all countries.

Any provisions of the license agreement that contradict (hierarchically) consumer legislation, civil, criminal codes and, as a result, the Constitution are automatically void.

You are joking right? The point here isn't that the constitution is above agreements and laws. The point here is there is nothing in the constitutions about software. Please point me to any line in a constitution that makes software licensing illegal.

Again, demagogic verbiage from A and not a cent of useful information. ))

Again, personal attacks with not a cent of contradicting any of my statements

[NikoB]

am not sure what you mean by "left the discussions", now there may have been some discussions that I have not responded simply because I didn't notice it slip off the front of the forum page. But same applies to you, plenty of discussions you have stopped responding.

You have escaped from all key discussions. I never. These are facts.

Hundreds of thousands of lines of html? markup or matlab? You clearly don't understand how open source works

No dude. Unimaginably complex code that 1-2% of all developers on the planet are capable of.

PS Our supreme court has ruled that money = freedom of speech, so that should tell you where we stand on consumer protection

Again empty demagoguery. Why should a consumer in the US refuse to buy a laptop if they are being deliberately forced into a bundled Windows? So can a consumer in the US refund its value and refuse to ship it after purchasing a laptop?

And why in your "free" and allegedly "civilian" society, Windows is deliberately included in the total price of a laptop, and does not go as a separate column on the sales receipt?

This is the imposition on the consumer of a service that he would like to refuse. With the connivance of corrupt US antitrust authorities. After all, the share of M$ in the desktop OS market significantly exceeds 50%, which means they have no right to dictate their terms to the market, it is up to the authorities how and what should be sold. And the authorities are representatives of the people, right? ;)

What does windows 8 being free or not have to do with firefox marketshare?

It's funny how you make a fool out of yourself. You perfectly understand that with an insignificant share of FF in the browser market, the loss of 5-6% of users is a disaster for them. Or there is no Mozilla, there is a project that sponsors M$ and Google. ;)

The point here is there is nothing in the constitutions about software.

This is not necessary, because the key principles remain unchanged, and licensing and copying directly violate the rights of citizens, and this is a fact.

Again, personal attacks with not a cent of contradicting any of my statements

Your last paragraph sounded like an advertisement for antivirus companies. Nothing useful and only demagogy. Therefore, the value is zero, as I wrote on the merits of the issue.

And you have hellish porridge in your head. Unfortunately.

[A]

You have escaped from all key discussions. I never. These are facts.

"key discussions" lol, so let me guess all the discussions you ran away from were not "key discussions"?

Also, I know english isn't your first language, so I suggest looking up the difference between "fact" and "opinion"

No dude. Unimaginably complex code that 1-2% of all developers on the planet are capable of.

Aren't you full of yourself. Was it "hello world"?

Again empty demagoguery. Why should a consumer in the US refuse to buy a laptop if they are being deliberately forced into a bundled Windows? So can a consumer in the US refund its value and refuse to ship it after purchasing a laptop?

Again, freedoms are given both ways. To both the consumer and the seller. So the seller has just as much right to sell things bundled as a consumer has to chose to buy or not buy something.

As for given a refund on the value of windows, probably not. It doesn't have a separate sku in their system and you contractually agreed to purchase it bundled. Though they may give you a discount at their own discretion as "good will", but you would keep the windows

And why in your "free" and allegedly "civilian" society, Windows is deliberately included in the total price of a laptop, and does not go as a separate column on the sales receipt?

Same reason why each transistor doesn't go on your sale receipt. They view the purchase as a whole.

This is the imposition on the consumer of a service that he would like to refuse. With the connivance of corrupt US antitrust authorities. After all, the share of M$ in the desktop OS market significantly exceeds 50%, which means they have no right to dictate their terms to the market, it is up to the authorities how and what should be sold. And the authorities are representatives of the people, right? ;)

It is anti-trust, but do note in US, OS X has higher marketshare than rest of the world. Not that there isn't some corruption here. And generally it is the corporations that have the money to fight these battles. Like for example, only anti-trust that really happened was OEMs wanting to make any browser they chose the default, and that was cause Chrome was willing to pay them money to make it default. And MS was requiring that all windows have IE as default

It's funny how you make a fool out of yourself. You perfectly understand that with an insignificant share of FF in the browser market, the loss of 5-6% of users is a disaster for them. Or there is no Mozilla, there is a project that sponsors M$ and Google. ;)

You are assuming those users all use FireFox, they do not. And FireFox's main goal has always been to have a better web, encouraging people to use EOL operating systems makes no sense.

This is not necessary, because the key principles remain unchanged, and licensing and copying directly violate the rights of citizens, and this is a fact.

No it is not a fact, it is an opinion. And you still have not pointed to a single line of a constitution that has this right. So, not only is it an opinion, it is a poor opinion at the level  of wishful thinking. (And do note I wish it was the case myself, but I can tell the difference between wishful thinking and reality)

Your last paragraph sounded like an advertisement for antivirus companies. Nothing useful and only demagogy. Therefore, the value is zero, as I wrote on the merits of the issue.

And you have hellish porridge in your head. Unfortunately.

Me telling people that the default windows defender is good enough for most people is advertisement for antivirus companies?

Or is it the part where I point out "some", not all are 0.1% better?

PS So you know, here in the US you can get pretty much most antivirus programs for free, even the paid ones, many are free after rebate. But even that isn't worth the time for most people unless they do something that puts their security at risk like downloading illegal software. If its for simply testing, you are better off using a secure VM.

[NikoB]

"key discussions" lol, so let me guess all the discussions you ran away from were not "key discussions"?

Fortunately, all your remarks and shameful flight from key discussions remained on the forum. So you are a liar.

Aren't you full of yourself. Was it "hello world"?

Start with yourself - you can't even write "Hello world" on your own. I have at least hundreds of thousands of lines of code in my luggage and not shitty html code, like today's "web designers".

So the seller has just as much right to sell things bundled as a consumer has to chose to buy or not buy something.

No, it doesn't. According to our local consumer laws, he cannot impose additional services if they are not needed by the consumer. And OS is an additional service. That is why you can return money for OS.

As for given a refund on the value of windows, probably not. It doesn't have a separate sku in their system and you contractually agreed to purchase it bundled.

This is an illegal action on the part of the seller (and in collusion with the copyright holder, the manufacturer, along the chain). A legal entity always has more influence than an ordinary consumer. That is why consumer legislation is NOT symmetrical in terms of the rights of the consumer and sellers/producers. But even legally illiterate A does not know about this or he is just a sales bot.

Same reason why each transistor doesn't go on your sale receipt. They view the purchase as a whole.

You again build intentionally, out of yourself, fool. Although you understand very well that the OS is easily separable, but there are no transistors in the crystal. You are a liar, a demagogue and a bot of sellers / manufacturers, this is already obvious.

For example, memory and SSD are easily separable, where they are not soldered. And this is also an omission of corrupt consumer law enforcement agencies. Because often vile manufacturers deliberately impose a smaller amount of RAM (for example, 8+8, instead of 16+16), and the price of 16+16 (if it is sold in series and is available in the country of sale from sellers (and often this is not)) is set 2-5 times higher than retail prices for RAM and with a guarantee not in 1-2 years as part of a laptop, but at least 5-10 years. Same thing with SSD. And all this the consumer can easily save money - by installing it purchased in advance or from the same seller separately components at the time of purchase and abandoning the factory imposition of factory components easy for replace with one goal from manufacturers - to sell obsolete garbage from warehouses, which otherwise will have to be written off.

You are assuming those users all use FireFox, they do not.

You are lying. Because on W7-W8.1, nothing but FF has been left since February 2023. Therefore, 100% of them use FF if they want to have an up-to-date browser. Thus, you acknowledged that Mozilla, against the backdrop of an insignificant market share of browsers in FF, acted simply stupidly, losing the key 5-6% at once. These people, as soon as they are forced to switch to W10-11, will no longer use FF most likely. Of course, except for those who, like me, clearly understand that all people using Chrome / Edge on screens with ppi less than 220 are definitely spoiling their eyesight. But alas, most people are idiots. And in this case, they are punishing themselves, although because of these idiots, people who understand the essence of the problem, like me, suffer as well. experts like me are a vanishing minority on the planet, the majority ignoring the harm to their own eyesight allows the bastards at Google and M$ to continue to ship browsers with incorrect black and white anti-aliasing, which becomes invisible only at ppi from about 220. That is why on all smartphones, with ppi much more than 250, there is simply no such problem. And the bastards from Google do not care that the owners of laptop and PC screens with ppi are most often much below 150, 100% spoil their eyesight without understanding the essence of the problem due to their own stupidity. Although the bastard developers of Google and M$ are well aware of the essence of the problem - the bug tracker is full of indications of incorrect black-and-white anti-aliasing.

No it is not a fact, it is an opinion.

It makes no sense to paint on dozens of pages the violation of the Constitution, which has taken on a mass character in all countries and the further, the stronger.

Me telling people that the default windows defender is good enough for most people is advertisement for antivirus companies?

Any real IT specialist, unlike suckers, knows perfectly well that antiviruses are useless and never catch the latest versions of viruses, trojans that use zero-day vulnerabilities. Moreover, this useless garbage consumes significant system resources for nothing.

It is enough to observe cleanliness and have common sense when using unknown content so that there are no problems. I have not had any problems for 15 years.

Therefore, you are a demagogue who exactly uses the slogans of companies producing this useless garbage. Not only that, those who sell it for a fee must intentionally support the opinion of customers that their software is useful - which means they are interested in the customer being scared all the time and buying a subscription for years.

Virtually all antivirus companies are 100% parasites sucking money out of idiots.

[A]

Fortunately, all your remarks and shameful flight from key discussions remained on the forum. So you are a liar.

So you consider any discussion you ran away from as not a "key discussion"? lol, okay

Start with yourself - you can't even write "Hello world" on your own. I have at least hundreds of thousands of lines of code in my luggage and not shitty html code, like today's "web designers".

You can code in your luggage? Was that code written on a typewriter? OR printed T-shirts? And you say "today's web designers", but what did webdesigners in the past use if not html? Flash, ActiveX, Java Applet?

No, it doesn't. According to our local consumer laws, he cannot impose additional services if they are not needed by the consumer. And OS is an additional service. That is why you can return money for OS.

I am not sure why you are blaming me for US law. I wasn't the one who wrote it.

And again, how many people would actually go out of their way to get a refund of something prebundled

You have no clue what you are talking about, even my own data on our corporate site shows FireFox users are not all on Windows 7-8.1, that is nonsense. Most users are on latest windows. And FF has not fully abandoned W7-8.1 until September 2024 when ESR stops supporting it.

It makes no sense to paint on dozens of pages the violation of the Constitution, which has taken on a mass character in all countries and the further, the stronger.

Again, you can't name a single constitution and where it is a violation.

Sorry, but you have no clue what you are talking about. Antiviruses get definition upgrades way faster then your OS would patch things, that is because it is easier to do so. This is why even MS bundles free AV called Windows Defender

And no, AV can block zero day exploits via Heuristic analyses and policies

[NikoB]

So you consider any discussion you ran away from as not a "key discussion"?

It is to decide to readers which of us shamefully loses, over and over again. After all, I turn to a smart minority, extremely rare on the forums. But for the sake of them I write, sometimes it gives fruitful results, sometimes not, depends on luck with the audience of a particular forum.

You can code in your luggage? Was that code written on a typewriter? OR printed T-shirts? And you say "today's web designers", but what did webdesigners in the past use if not html? Flash, ActiveX, Java Applet?

I will no longer answer, because you are simply an idiot who can not even write something but examples from textbooks and easily fill up any survey for the professional of knowledge. This is clear in advance. Therefore, it makes no sense to listen to nonsense from who is not in the know who I am.

I am not sure why you are blaming me for US law. I wasn't the one who wrote it.

And again, how many people would actually go out of their way to get a refund of something prebundled

You are again lying and distort the written demagogs I have written in my slippery situation, losing to clean once again. It is funny, as you yourself have buried yourself over and over again, but smart readers, they notice all this.

Those who do not make efforts do not deserve respect. They cause only contempt if they agreed with pressure and coercion.

I don't disagree with you that it is corruption and BS, just pointing out how it is. Our supreme court ruled that money = freedom of speech

Your Supreme Court could not decide anything like that.

You have no clue what you are talking about, even my own data on our corporate site shows FireFox users are not all on Windows 7-8.1, that is nonsense. Most users are on latest windows. And FF has not fully abandoned W7-8.1 until September 2024 when ESR stops supporting it.

You again ineptly manipulate the facts, immediately stupidly neglecting that they use W10/W11, because only one actual browser - FF remained under the W7 -W8.1.

ESR support is useless for a simple reason - it does not take into account changes in other browsers, but only corrects the gaps in safety. There are already a lot of sites that do not work normally even in the relatively fresh FF110, and part of the code does not even work in FF115, the last for W7-W8.1, where there was an attempt to hide in the changes in chrome, the most popular browser on the planet (even if this is also It was essentially done with criminal methods, as it once happened with Windows). Therefore, how, only the sites you need will cease to function normally on the FF115 engine, everything will be over under W7-W7-W8.1, even if the browser receives safety patches in ESR mode.

Any professional understands this perfectly, but not a regular demagogue A, an ordinary ordinary technically illiterate layman.

Again, you can't name a single constitution and where it is a violation.

You are lying again. On this occasion, even in the United States there are a lot of claims from the prosecutor's office of the States and a lot of claims from the civil remnants of society. Whole sites are devoted to this. What is the point of throwing a bisser in front of a full-time clown А?

Sorry, but you have no clue what you are talking about. Antiviruses get definition upgrades way faster then your OS would patch things, that is because it is easier to do so. This is why even MS bundles free AV called Windows Defender

You are ridiculous, taking into account the fact that I myself once wrote viruses for fun. No antivirus will help you against the vulnerabilities of the zero day (moreover, the "day" here is a purely conditional structure that can stretch for months and even years =)).

But how to know this to the standard demagogue A, because he is an amateur and ordinary layman who does not understand anything in the development of software and systemic programming.

You again ineptly manipulate the facts, immediately stupidly neglecting that they use W10/W11, because only one actual browser - FF remained under the W7 -W8.1.

From Mozilla themselves "Mozilla's latest hardware survey shows that 13.44% of all Firefox installations run on Windows 7. It is second only to Windows 10, which has a commanding lead"

As always, you make nothing but baseless claims

Security patches are the most important thing there is. Most websites are coded to support most modern browsers and in worst case add polyfills. If a site doesn't work, it is either intentional or the programmer had no clue what they are doing. No amount of patches is going to fix that.

You are lying again. On this occasion, even in the United States there are a lot of claims from the prosecutor's office of the States and a lot of claims from the civil remnants of society. Whole sites are devoted to this. What is the point of throwing a bisser in front of a full-time clown А?

Are you confusing the difference between laws and the constitutions? There are 2 different things...

You are ridiculous, taking into account the fact that I myself once wrote viruses for fun. No antivirus will help you against the vulnerabilities of the zero day (moreover, the "day" here is a purely conditional structure that can stretch for months and even years =)).

But how to know this to the standard demagogue A, because he is an amateur and ordinary layman who does not understand anything in the development of software and systemic programming.

It doesn't matter how conditional it is, any application is converted into machine code. You can check if the software in question is utilizing shady code. On top of it, it can block certain actions like making a network connection or encrypt the disk. That doesn't mean that it is perfect, but it does work as I've seen plenty of zero day exploits that were sent through our mail systems picked by the antivirus even if there was some false positives

[NikoB]

And it will be readers who decide that, not you. End of the day you do nothing but create double standards treating every time you lose as "none key discussions" while cherry picking whatever you wish

A smart reader, a friend who owns critical thinking and common sense, has long understood who is promoting double standards and constantly lying, spreading demagoguery.

All you have is talk, yet you didn't even know what overlayfs was

I don't need to know, because The world of Linux is of little interest to me, which does not negate my knowledge and experience, which the complete amateur A does not have and which constantly spreads demagoguery about the possibility of auditing "open code" (which in reality, in full, is not in any version of Linux) , which a complete amateur in software development A is not capable of, and even I will not do, although I audited and reverse-engineered some Linux drivers with specific goals to use the found nuances to manage drivers under Windows. Few people are capable of it. I do.

an you rewrite that in plain english? All you keep doing is going side wards on any discussion

I will repeat what I wrote earlier:
Those who do not make efforts do not deserve respect. They cause only contempt if they agreed with pressure and coercion.

And about the google translator - this is "AI" from Google. They do nothing but smile. Like ChatGPT, but the suckers were temporarily bred for money. And this is clearly a "success"!

Our supreme court unfortunately can

Please provide a link to a similar solution.

rom Mozilla themselves "Mozilla's latest hardware survey shows that 13.44% of all Firefox installations run on Windows 7. It is second only to Windows 10, which has a commanding lead"

As always, you make nothing but baseless claims

Again, demagoguery, without specifying what is considered 100% and references to reliable studies. If it includes Android and other mobile OS, then this is a sham

Security patches are the most important thing there is. Most websites are coded to support most modern browsers and in worst case add polyfills. If a site doesn't work, it is either intentional or the programmer had no clue what they are doing. No amount of patches is going to fix that.

Most of the townsfolk spit on "security", even with all the demagogy in the press. The most important thing is to support the normal operation of sites. If this is not the case (and FF115 no longer works on a number of sites), then the browser is dead. And since there is no choice - FF, in fact, at an accelerated pace (taking into account the debilitation and laziness of web developers) in less than six months will go into the state of a completely inoperative browser, which means that W7-W8.1 will be dead by the beginning of 2024, despite the presence "security patches" by ESR.

Are you confusing the difference between laws and the constitutions? There are 2 different things...

As even current lawsuits against governments, including the United States and what they have been doing since 2020, prove - officials, lawyers and part of the judiciary deliberately ignore the Constitutions of all countries, I don't. Again demagogy and lies from A

It doesn't matter how conditional it is, any application is converted into machine code. You can check if the software in question is utilizing shady code. On top of it, it can block certain actions like making a network connection or encrypt the disk. That doesn't mean that it is perfect, but it does work as I've seen plenty of zero day exploits that were sent through our mail systems picked by the antivirus even if there was some false positives

Again, empty demagoguery from an amateur and a liar A. I personally made viruses, for the sake of entertainment, which antiviruses did not see. Ultimately, there is no "AI" in antiviruses (and all the pros in system-level software development know this) and the human mind will certainly beat any antivirus.
And stupid laymen naively believe in the lies of anti-virus companies that they "protect" them, for the pleasure of the beneficiaries of these companies, who collect money from simpletons. In reality, they are just Trojans in the system, brazenly collecting information about the actions and data of the owner of the gadget and sending them online to the servers of these companies, which, like M$, brazenly trade them. And this is filthy worthless "software", which is also significantly slowed down by the OS and normal software, wasting a lot of system resources and leading to elevated temperatures, noise (especially on laptops) and, as a result, faster harware wear.
