True. A local news site where I live only just recently stopped using flash.

At least for the tv stations I can hope that at some point in the medium term future someone in the ABC/CBS/FOX/NBC headquarters will force their affiliates to upgrade; that'd cut somewhere around a third of my residual flash use.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

One can hope. But event some of their postings still use flash. Go figure.

Hmmm. Interesting, since I've assumed that the plug-in that Chrome keeps warning me about was Flash. Almost every site I visit produces the warning that it uses a plug-in that will soon be unsupported. I wonder what it is?

It probably is Flash; it's the only plugin left with non-trivial general website usage (assuming you (or worse your ISP) don't have crapware trying to inject sliverblight/quicktime ads into every page anyhow). Google banned flash ads[^] at the start of the month. If for some reason you were still using the Netscape Plugin API[^] version of flash instead of the built in one, they support for it off on Tuesday too.
Not being a Chrome user, that'd be my first guess; but I wouldn't put it past Google to blight all pages with a nag, even if using their blessed version of the plugin.

I heard that Flash would be disabled by default, but auto-enabled when you go to Privacy mode...

Care to elaborate? Mike Diack is running it without any issues.

I missed the joke icon. I meant troubles as in "Updates (almost) constantly nagging you, not mentioning the security holes".

Flash 19 64 bit works well with 64 bit Firefox. I'm running 64 bit Firefox 40.0.02 with Flash 19.0.0.162 (a beta build) and it works well for video etc (it runs under the control of plugin-container.exe). It's been stable for me for months now on Windows 7, 8.1 and Windows 10 systems.

Good to hear. I'll be running it on 8.1 or 10 depending on when I get around to upgrading it. Maybe 7 if I decide to force a manual update at work. (The geniuses block regular updates of FF for 'compatibility' reasons but ignore the bug fix only LTS builds; so I'm generally out of date and vulnerable to being pwned there. Their funeral, not mine.)

More like caffeine o'clock.

In a mutually beneficial arrangement, I've given Nagy my lifetime share of gin.

Thanks. I would be much more grateful if it wasn't for the fact that it consisted of a half bottle [probably opened sometime around 1987] and for some bizarre reason a slice of dried banana.

I knew I lost a banana chip on my first day of school. No clue how it ended up there though.

He's on holiday somewhere with the wife for her 10 years hard labour. And yes the FB posts are pretty much all drink related.
Except for the odd one Michelle posts of him passed out after drinking half a dozen cocktails...

Has she managed to get the baby she's wanted for all of those 10 years yet?

ANOTHER one? Apart from DD?

IIRC he has at least one son - didn't he set up the ink sales site to hand over to him?
