The only reason a country is in the third world is because they are
completely clueless. Why waste time on that?
Or is there something wrong with this kind of argument? Perhaps it is
the other way around: The only reason some websites fail to support
old browsers is because the maintainers are completely clueless.
If I understand Lars remarks here, I agree with him. Contempt towards
people with older browsers is completely inconsistent with our
mission. There are of course limits to what we can do, but even so...
Certainly the suggestion that if people are on old computers with old
software, we should not support them, but instead tell them to upgrade
to Linux is a wildly impractical suggestion.
