Flash

Currently, I think only the Arcade absolutely depends on flash. The embeds for media are pretty much all migrated to HTML5 already. But I don't think there's anything that can be done to convert over the Arcade, that's something each game's authors would have to do.
It looks like the standard Halforums page tries to load:

Any idea if it's still necessary?

That's the flash uploader, it's not required and there's an HTML version that is used automatically when flash isn't available, is my understanding.
There's a Flash bug that gets loaded on every page, too.
At least, that's what my plug-in keeps trying to tell me.

Adobe to kill off Flash in January’s Creative Cloud update
No, I'm not gonna make a [Brazelton] thread for this. I don't feel like I can really call it a surprise.

Ok, I'm done. I've uninstalled Flash player on my main PC. With stuff like this showing up so frequently, I'm just done with it.
The only reason I'm not uninstalling Silverlight is because I never installed it in the first place.

Welp Apple's gone and done it.
Buncha software updates were released today for phones 'n' stuff, but also an update to the Safari browser.
Safari now no longer supports Flash.
It's the beginning of the end.

I hate that flash is gone. They just wiped so much of the internet out. I understand why, but it's so shitty.
All browsers that supported the NPAPI supported Flash, at least until browsers started to deprecate support for NPAPI due to security concerns.

I did a reinstall of the OS back when I rebuilt my home desktop.
This machine's never had flash on it...haven't missed it.

Tomorrow is when things like the auto-update script are gonna start choking because of Adobe back-end changes, with full cessation on the 12th.
