    Another reason I don't let Flash install...

    Another exploit for Adobe Flash

    Kubuntu 24.04 64bit under Kernel 6.10.2, Hp Pavilion, 6MB ram. All Bow To The Great Google... cough, hack, gasp.

    Interesting suggestion in the comments on that article:

    (Also experiment with Firefox plug-ins that change your browser string to "iPad" on those sites - many sites that ostensibly require Flash will relent and work without it when your browser claims to be an iPad.)

      I keep hoping the developers will stop using Flash, in favor of better options like HTML5, but...

      Perhaps it is too early in the life cycle of HTML5. Or people don't want to update an existing site?

        HTML5 is plenty mature enough. Flash persists purely out of laziness
