2024-04-28 13:53:23 +0200 <tomsmeding> these days, for better or for worse, a web browser is not something that you should want to get very old
2024-04-28 13:53:04 +0200 <int-e> (aka buster)
2024-04-28 13:52:50 +0200 <int-e> even oldstable is at 115
2024-04-28 13:52:08 +0200 <tomsmeding> which is significant
2024-04-28 13:52:02 +0200 <tomsmeding> for any browser vulnerabilities since mid 2021
2024-04-28 13:51:40 +0200 <yin> for vulnerabilities like alert :)
2024-04-28 13:50:10 +0200 <tomsmeding> be aware of missing security patches in basically everything on your machine though
2024-04-28 13:49:51 +0200 <tomsmeding> ski: I see, thanks; that tells me that you might not be the only one
2024-04-28 13:49:30 +0200 <ski> well, i installed debian-based distro on this laptop, a few years ago, and haven't gotten around to updating it

2024-04-28 13:48:33 +0200 <yin> welp :)

2024-04-28 13:48:28 +0200 <tomsmeding> I might fallback to that
2024-04-28 13:48:22 +0200 <tomsmeding> it was an alert() before :p
2024-04-28 13:48:12 +0200 <yin> tomsmeding: have you considered https://caniuse.com/?search=alert ?
2024-04-28 13:47:42 +0200 <tomsmeding> ski: why are you still on 91? Is it likely that it's just you or do you get this from some package manager somewhere that other people might also use?
2024-04-28 13:47:27 +0200 <yin> i personally design for text only browsers first and build from there
2024-04-28 13:47:05 +0200 <yin> cutoff
2024-04-28 13:47:01 +0200 <yin> tomsmeding: yeah you need to choose the cutoof
2024-04-28 13:45:11 +0200 <yin> oh i see
2024-04-28 13:44:56 +0200 <tomsmeding> I had previously decided that >=98 was wide enough, but maybe it isn't now
2024-04-28 13:44:41 +0200 <tomsmeding> <dialog> works from firefox 98, and ski is using an old version 91.4 ESR
2024-04-28 13:44:19 +0200 <tomsmeding> yin: what are you trying to say?
2024-04-28 13:44:12 +0200 <yin> yes...

2024-04-28 13:40:12 +0200 <int-e> tomsmeding: But then I get a 404 :P
2024-04-28 13:39:59 +0200 <tomsmeding> yin: right, I see such a support box at the top of the mdn page for showModal() https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLDialogElement/showModal
2024-04-28 13:39:31 +0200 <tomsmeding> int-e: I suggest removing the devdoc.net/web/ prefix from that :p
2024-04-28 13:38:51 +0200 <int-e> LOL https://devdoc.net/web/developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Firefox_ESR.html "The current ESR version is based on Firefox 45 issued on March 8th, 2016." ("Last updated by: SphinxKnight, Jul 11, 2017, 5:10:31 AM")
2024-04-28 13:38:39 +0200 <yin> tomsmeding: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/blog/baseline-evolution-on-mdn/
2024-04-28 13:38:34 +0200 <tomsmeding> (Dialog.showModal(), the function that you don't have, is in firefox since 98, so would already be in the next ESR, 102, which is also already old)
2024-04-28 13:37:29 +0200 <tomsmeding> this https://endoflife.date/firefox claims that it's been out of support for a long time
2024-04-28 13:36:26 +0200 <tomsmeding> mozilla doesn't seem to publish anything on support periods (?)

2024-04-28 13:31:54 +0200 <ski> i guess a brief call trace
