Doesn't every computer have a bios? Genuinely asking
Yes, though I think the exception is (some?) ARM based PCs don't run UEFI, in which ARM in general doesn't have a universal standard for booting which adds complexity to it. Perhaps that's already changed though, I haven't kept up too well in the ARM space.
Not sure if maybe the Walmart self checkout terminals aren't x86 machines, perhaps they're ARM or another embedded type of system.

which is funny because firmware is a legacy term for what evolved into what is honestly software.
You don't need to socket any new chips nowadays.
I mean, if what we're using is pulled from a chipset on the motherboard whose storage space isn't rewritable from the OS interface, wouldn't that be called firmware? You are using a flash chip to boot after all.

IDK where this is, but I repaired self checkouts in Oklahoma and Texas for years and they all had Windows. The regular registers looked like this when they booted. But going off the way the surrounding hardware is facing the same direction as the screen and what looks like a debit reader barely visible on the left and the printer on the right, it does look like a self checkout, just not one like I've ever seen.

When I used to work at Walmart in 2012, they still used MS-DOS for their signage

Maybe there were dual booting Windows and then a Windows update broke the boot partition

Open-source Mbrowser 52.2, packed with security features
Does anyone know where to find this?
EDIT: All I can find are the user agent strings which indicate that this might be some IBM product. Also, there's
rv:52.0in the environment part, butIBM Mbrowser/60.5.1in the engines part - so the actual version of the browser component might be 60.5.1 in this case, not 52.x. (There's also arv:60.0withMbrowser/60.9.0- noIBMthis time.)
