Probably all with the noteworthy exception of the Vatican.
I've seen a lot of stuff involving religion in Sweden, Poland and Czech Republic when I was living in those countries... Germany, Denmark, Scotland, England and Northern Ireland (surprisingly), not so much. But then they all have issues with other individual freedoms...
Does that include windows 2000 patches? I remember the xray machine I was in last, which was networked ao they could pull up the images from other computers was running on Windows 2000.
A fair few NHS institutions don't even have a windows domain. I don't know why you think it's centrally managed, each practice can be completely different from another in IT setup.
The NHS is horribly decentralised and connected to each practice via ad-hoc methods... Even payroll isn't centralised throughout the UK for the NHS. I don't see how this is an example of centralisation like you make it out to be.
I honestly thought he BlackBerry Message Center was a brilliant idea. Providing an API directly in the OS for your instant messengers to expose their contact lists and features to. Unfortunately, this is a feature on a very niche mobile operating system that is overlooked due to the popularity of the platform. I'd love to see something like this in Windows, KDE, macOS, Android, iOS etc.
Just look at how much emulators need beefy PCs to run games compared to their original systems and you'll understand how much the OS changes everything.
Barely nothing. Running Windows inside VMware on Linux runs a fair few games for me with next to no FPS or graphical difference for me.
I had been doing fine for years with multi-network clients like Pidgin/Trillium/Adium
Why doesn't Pidgin/Trillium/Adium support Telegram? It's not like the client isn't opensource.
until semi-recently when big players started kicking 3rd party clients off their networks.
Telegram is a bigger player right now than XMPP, Sametime, Simple and SILC (supported by libpurple) and their client is opensource, they're not kicking 3rd party clients off and yet it is not supported by Pidgin/Trillium/Adium while these other ones are.
XMPP supported almost everything except possibly real-time video.
XMPP sucked for a few more reasons: 1) It is traffic heavy. 2) Presence notification causes immense loads on large chats. 3) Often 3rd parties implemented support poorly (ie: Facebook, Star Trek: Online, AIM didn't provide federation support, limited client support, Google dropped federation, gateways often half assed implemented etc). 4) Didn't support websockets (had to use BOSH), although RFC 7395 has come to change it, it's a little too late considering people are dropping it now. 5) Not designed for mobile phones in mind, transitive states, notification systems etc. 6) This might sound bad... But, I really had problems finding a decent XMPP client that someone who isn't very technically inclined wouldn't find irritating to start with (compared to using Skype or Telegram).
WebRTC is already used by Telegram, Skype, Discord and Hangouts. It's just a javascript API used by browsers for real time communication, doesn't solve the issue brought up, which is:
People desperately need a universal solution which is secure, decentralized, fault tolerant, not attached to your phone number, protects your privacy, supports video and audio chats and sending of files, works behind NATs and other firewalls and has the ability to send offline messages.
When I bought my 780, and at the time (2013?), it wasn't nowhere even the best card and it's still not obsolete...
why would you sink 2x the cost of a console
Because as someone that has all the current generation consoles and just pre-ordered the Nintendo Switch, I don't see why I shouldn't have a graphics card for my PC that works well? I feel the limitations of my current graphics card and as someone that drives multiple monitors with a single graphics card, runs multiple games at times, does a little streaming, a little video encoding, a little 3d work - I just don't see why I shouldn't?
Some people seem to have completely lost sight of the whole point of playing games: it is to have fun...
Maybe it's just me, but I don't really want to play Star Citizen at 20FPS because I find the performance and framerate stutter to actually break my immersion and makes controlling the game frustrating. I don't like playing Final Fantasy XIV on my PS4 because the performance tends to drop significantly in raids when lots of effects are firing off and I am having to reduce my graphical options in order to make it managable at which point my enjoyment is diminished because even despite that, I find the frame drops and stutters really annoying...
I just get a 0% APR creditcard for 12 months and pay it back over the course of a year?
A card for half the price will play your fun game at 1080p/60hz while your rich friends enjoy 4K/120Hz.
If that's all you use it for, likely sufficient, yes. Although, when I already see performance issues in Star Citizen on the current 1080... I'm not sure at how much of a disadvantage those players will be at in the near future.
And yes, there is barely any difference.
Honestly, when you do a few more things with multiple 1080p monitors, run a couple of games at the same time, do a little streaming, a bit of video encoding work, a bit of 3d modelling etc. You tend to notice the limitations of hardware.

Concerning freedom (including religion).

Which European country has saner laws?
They don't use Windows exclusively either.

They got their business model wrong, I'd pay not to read AC!
The Nintendo Switch is region free, do you have that?
Attacked!? Did they hunt down where they lived, came into their home and kicked their heads in or something?
The exploits mentioned weren't closed based, but locally in the browser though?
Really? Which ones? I have a tendency to prefer SMS for most things.
I drop things as trivially as I can adopt them, so it's not really a big deal for me.
Still doesn't have desktop clients, nor API extensibility or opensource client. This is why I am using Telegram.

Twitter works fine with SMS, this should be fine within your scope of accessibility.
That's a fork and not used by the main Pidgin/Trillium/Adium projects -- Why not?

It has less network bridges than XMPP has for gateways... And XMPP gateways are already lacking...

Sounds like you're projecting your personal problems on to me. I don't need to do anything.
Typically to do something during periods of quietness. Like, waiting for a queue to pop in a raid finder.
Works fine for me? With FFXIV I have a some joystick button bindings that work just fine despite not being an active window?
Your experience my differ, but I know where I am having issues.

There are games out there that will do fine on limited hardware doing few things. But, those games for some reason are of little interest to me and I genuinely don't find them fun.
Me and I don't get your logic, it's flawed.
