The Wine Project, a compatibility layer that enables Linux and macOS users to run Windows applications, has officially released version 10.19 as a maintenance update to the stable 10.x series.

The release adds support for reparse points, a Windows filesystem feature used for symbolic links, mount points, and directory redirection. This improves compatibility with applications that depend on modern NTFS behavior. Wine 10.19 also includes further work on WinRT exception handling, part of an ongoing effort to support newer application frameworks.

"Questions have been raised over how hundreds of Palestinians were able to leave Gaza, board a plane in Israel, and arrive in South Africa without departure stamps in their passports or indication of their intended destination."

This is downright strange!

As usual, this will be a tech-focused post, but we’ll do our best to explain the concepts as best as we can – and if there’s any follow-up questions let us know on our socials and we might cover them in a future blog!
