Mozilla to Scrap Firefox Support For Windows XP and Windows Vista in 2017

Are there still people using Windows XP and Vista? I know of most cyber cafés who have vowed never to upgrade to the latest windows… Mozilla got bad news for you.

“Firefox is one of the few browsers that continues to support Windows XP and Vista, and we expect to continue to provide security updates for users until September 2017. Users do not need to take additional action to receive those updates. In mid-2017, user numbers on Windows XP and Vista will be reassessed and a final support end date will be announced”

Meaning, from September 2017, Firefox will end supports for Windows Vista and Windows XP hence, you are advised to upgrade before that date.

Few hours back, WhatsApp began rolling out Video calling features to some beta testers and I’m pretty sure before today ends, a lot of beta testers will be rocking WhatsApp video calling.

As long as you are a beta tester, you only need to update your WhatsApp if available to the latest beta version and you should be sure to receive the video calling features.

None beta testers should breathe easy up till the main update gets to Google Playstore.

Note that it went live only after updating to latest WhatsApp 2.16.318 Beta. Works only when both caller and receiver have latest beta version installed.

 

Google Duo video calling is what we are using for a while to make video calls, but I know far more people who use Whatsapp than Duo. Now that Whatsapp video calling is live, hope you guys won't move Duo to wastebasket?

Thank God!!!..Samsung Stop The Production of Galaxy Note 7

At this point in time, it is safe to say that Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is the worst thing that has ever happened in the history of Android hardwares. Samsung should be bowing their head to shame and disgrace right now after series explosions caused by the suppose Note 7. Even the replacements are not safe for use.

American carriers T-Mobile and AT&T are no longer selling the device, all four major carriers are accepting unconditional exchanges. 

Korean new Agency Yonhap reported earlier Monday morning that Samsung has stopped the production of Galaxy Note 7. The halt is apparently temporary. Samsung has declined to comment on the story when asked by international news agencies.

The Note 7 was a great phone, but at this stage the damage is terminal. Where Samsung goes from here is not clear. Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is an unprecedented attack on humanity and Android users at large.
