The problem is that many browsers on 32-bit systems do not support a recent 
enough version of HTTPS and can't be updated. For example, when I try to access

  https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lzip-bug

I get

  Secure Connection Failed
  An error occurred during a connection to lists.gnu.org.
  Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s).
  (Error code: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap)

Best regards,
