Do you waddle the waddle?
This version includes important security updates to Firefox.
Coming only a week after Mozilla Thunderbird 134, the Mozilla Thunderbird 135 release is the first to adopt XZ packaging for the Linux binaries, similar to what Mozilla did with the Firefox 135 release. This change leads to faster unpacking, smaller file sizes when downloading, and better integration with modern distros.
Firefox 136 promises several exciting features like hardware video decoding for AMD GPUs on Linux systems, hardware-accelerated playback of HEVC video content on macOS systems, support for the PNG image format when copying images out of Firefox to allow the preservation of transparency, and the long-awaited vertical tabs layout.
The Ivy Carrier Board is designed for compatibility with the Verdin SoM family by Toradex. With a compact 130 x 105 mm form factor, it features dual Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.0, Mini PCIe, industrial I/O, and MIPI DSI for display integration. Built for demanding environments, it supports an extended temperature range and a wide input voltage.
The CAN FD Adapter enables high-speed CAN FD connectivity for embedded and industrial applications. Available in M.2 B-key and mini-PCIe form factors, it supports data rates from 12.5 kbit/s to 8 Mbit/s. It integrates with systems used in industrial monitoring, robotics, automation, hardware-in-the-loop testing, remote access, and data logging.
