I interpreted said post as sarcasm that implied that the US police should have gotten rid of their older computers and get new ones that can run fancy JS and electron. Nothing to do with security, only about wasting money.

If they current pcs cant run electron, they likely can't run latest office either. It's probably still the age of win7 there, might be 32bit as well. With ancient Acrobat reader as well.

This has everything to do with security. They are one click away from getting whole department pwned.

I honestly doubt that. Office is surprisingly much lighter when compared with any electron application.

Anyway, chances are that they are running more than one program at once. Plus they do not really need to use office.

funfact: win10 also has a 32bit version, and it works just fine on computers with limited ram

Should have used Zathura instead.
