Oh you #sneaky turds, I had to think for a minute. "Wait, #Adobe #Flash is *back*?"

Plus the #MacOS popup chrome is kindof a giveaway on #Windows.

A picture of a malware/scamware popup advertisting itself as Adobe Flash Player - which hasn't been a viable piece of software for coming up on 5 years with Adobe's EOL announcement. Plus, no one has been making Flash anything for almost a decade since HTML5 became a thing.

Just came across @mjhibbett & #TheValidators' song #HeyHey16k again; especially the 2004 video clip version with (#Flash) animations by @robmanuel: https://www2.b3ta.com/heyhey16k/ (also archived at Archive.org)
Not sure where the photo used in the animation came from; probably a stock photo. Just crazy to think that even if the photo had been made the same year as the video, that the youngest kid in it would be over 20 years old by now. xD

My online summer classes--two live, one asynchronous--in case you know anyone interested! (They'll be good. I'll make sure of it.)

#WritingCommunity #WritingClass #WritingCraft #FlashFiction #Flash #Subtext #MagicalObjects

Summer Writing Classes!
Flash Fiction: The Power of Brevity https://bit.ly/FlashLoft
8 Weeks, Thursdays, 6pm - 8pm (CDT), Jun. 22- Aug. 17, 2023, Online--Live Meetings
We'll read some hot-off-the press flash fiction each week and discuss how it works. Then you'll get
a writing prompt related to the discussion and the opportunity to share your work with peers to
receive light, constructive feedback. At the end of the class, you'll have eight brand new stories, a
fuller understanding of flash fiction, and the inspiration to keep writing. Lots of feedback. Lots of
support.
The Magical Object in Fiction https://bit.ly/ObjectFiction
6 Weeks, Jul. 12 - Aug. 22, 2023, Online--Flex Schedule
Objects can be props, but they can also accumulate greater meaning. In this class, we'll examine
how to take the ordinary, functional objects that already occur in most stories and turn them into
reflections of character, conduits for intimacy, motifs, and powerful metaphors--all to create
dimension, complexity, and resonance in our stories.
Beneath the Surface: Exploring Subtext https://bit.ly/BeneathSurf
6 Weeks, Mondays, 6pm - 8pm (CDT), Jul. 17- Aug. 21, 2023, Online--Live Meetings
Charles Baxter's The Art of Subtext examines those elements that propel readers beyond the plot
into "the realm of what haunts the imagination: the implied, the half-visible, and the unspoken."
We'll pair each of Baxter's chapters with sample texts and deep discussion to make the ideas immediately actionable.

@kkarhan @ActionRetro The charges of the #SSD #Flash cells degrades over time, as electrons are able to tunnel out of their "traps".

Under normal conditions, a year or more should be safe; but a drive written at room temperature and then stored at 55°C (e.g. left in a hot car) might start to lose information after a week

Here is some explanation and background: https://www.anandtech.com/show/9248/the-truth-about-ssd-data-retention

I've been binging the Wally West #Flash comic and just finished issue #200, where they magic his identity secret. Geoff Johns had been foreshadowing this with cops criticizing Wally saying "He only revealed his identity to get special benefits." So cops hate you if you keep it a secret and they hate you if you reveal it. With the great work he did on Zoom, you'd think Johns would have put more thought into this beside 'magic'. Time travel was RIGHT THERE!

Today's Thing of Beauty: Two #trees and #moon in #nightsky #night 2:30 am. No #flash Looking towards the #city #Toronto #ontario #canada #photography Photo by me

Two trees with the moon on the horizon.

@ActionRetro granted even the cheapest #SCSI2SD and #CF2IDE adaptors and cards will feel snappier than the fastest supported #HDD|s supported by said systems, simply due to the fact that they're #Flash and don't suffer from seeking and can handle random, small #IOPS very well - which are the norm on #Desktops...

@ActionRetro Also the other results are easily explainable.

#PCIX is a #64bit bus and propably on it's own #PCI-Root-Controller.

The #IDE controller might be on it's own dedicaded bus if not integrated into the Chipset directly.

The #PCI controller likely has to share the bus with the other #PCI cards like the #7600GS.

The other modules are mostly bottlenecked by the #Flash and it's organization internally...

It is amazing how much better (worlds apart, really) is the writing and emotional connection between CW's #SupermanAndLois and season 8 of #Flash. S3E1 of SaL showed several scenes of spousal connection, and people (teenage, divorce, grandparent/grandchild) dealing seeking connection. Plus someone being brought back to life and made unwillingly super by an evil arms dealer and fighting Superman. Oh, and parenting boundaries, re: when to allow your teenager to deal with international disasters.

Slightly conflicted about the new #Flash #Film. On one hand..... Ezra Miller. On the other, it looks like it might genuinely be the first good 'mainstream' DC movie. I will grudgingly admit I quite liked THE Suicide Squad (and Peacemaker was EXCELLENT).

A custom map being played that was made in the Plazma Burst 2 advanced level editor. The character on the left has their body intact however the one on the right missing their legs, arms and torso so they look like a hovering head

Today I put a fifteen year long personal mystery to rest. In the Neopets Game Graveyard, the reason Scorchio's Quest doesn't run properly is because enemy movement is tied to the framerate, and it came out when computers were much slower. Open the SWF in a hex editor, change the value at 0x000010 from 0x003C to 0x000F (15 FPS), save, and enjoy finally being able to play a game that is actually not very good at all and quite buggy.

I figured this out while trying to run various old Neopets games on an iMac G3, mainly those in the Game Graveyard since most of those are old enough to run on the last Classic Mac OS version of Flash Player (Flash 7). Since there seems to be absolutely zero information about this online other than the occasional comment about this game not working, I made some notes about it here: https://computers.huntertur.net/index.php/Scorchio's_Quest

#ActiveX, #Flash, #Silverlight are all dead b/c they were proprietary platforms that couldn't survive once some real competition from open standards and FOSS platforms happened.

People jumped on #JavaScript feet first, despite all its issues. Proprietary platforms on the web can't survive given a cross-platform environment.

The one sore thumb is #Perl. It lost a lot of popularity due to TIMTOWTDI complexity + the announced breakage in Perl 6. #Scala contributors should take notes.

Le preloader dans l'animation #flash SMRPG Waltz of the Forest est complètement cassé/pété/non fonctionnel. Comment le corriger ?

De manière simple.

En fait, c'est le chargement d'une API de newsground qui ne fonctionne plus. Après une analyse rapide des scripts ActionScript, il suffit de changer une propriété qui indique à l'animation flash que la connexion est faite et ça débloque le bouton “Play”.

Ça se modifie rapidement avec FFDec (quand on sait comment fonctionne flash, as2/3…), sans à avoir à ressortir une vieille version de Flash (CS5 par exemple, et pas besoin de Flex builder, ce n'est pas de l'AS3).

Nachgetreten: Meines Erachtens hat letztendlich die Verfügbarkeit von #Flash #Speicher und damit die leichte Durchführbarkeit von #Firmware #Updates einen massiven #Nachteil in die #Hardware-Landschaft, insb. in der #Veranstaltungstechnik gebracht:

Das #Bananenprodukt – es reift beim Kunden.

Mein geerbter Roland Juno 106 Synthesizer von 1986 hat auch einen Prozessor. Diese alten Microcontroller waren in der Regel genau 1x beschreibbar. Für ein Update musste man den ganzen Prozessor tauschen. Kurzum, Firmware-Updates waren unzumutbar und teuer.

Heute leisten es sich selbst namhafte Hersteller wie #AllenHeath, Mischpulte auszuliefern, die bei einer bestimmten Kombination an User-Inputs komplett abstürzen. Erst in Firmware-Version 1.5 wird das dann behoben.

Vielleicht sind damit Zeit und Geld gespart beim Hersteller, vielleicht wird die gesparte Entwickler-Arbeitszeit aber auch durch die Support-Arbeitszeit wieder aufgefressen.

Meine Zeit frisst sowas allemal, und zwar beinahe täglich!

I think the main thing is we live in poetry and then relate those experiences as prose. You get back to the original poetry by stripping away all the extras added after your experience. This can be societal expectations, self curation, attempts at settling ambiguity, etc. But none of it has much to do with your actual life. #writing #poetry #flash #story

Anybody have any tips on how to #flash a new OS onto a #PinePhone Pro Explorer’s Edition using #TowBoot from a Windows PC?

The phone is mounted to Drive I: which is “BOOT_MNJRO” with the following files:

I’m reading “Web Design - The Evolution of the Digital World 1990-Today” and it’s striking how #Flash left a vacuum. The web is definitely more boring these days.

We don’t really need the plugin anymore - we have WASM, WebGL, video, audio etc. - but the need for a design/animation-centric IDE is definitely there. The entry barrier for designers is much higher and is preventing people from going nuts on interaction like we did in the early 2000s

one thing largely forgotten about the web since the mid-2000s is the disappearance of interactive web pages using #flash and #macromedia #director.

take a look at how tactile Dorling Kindersley's 1995 Encyclopedia of Nature is - almost everything in sight is clickable, makes sounds, animates or responds in some fashion. the entire #ui *invites* interaction instead of passive consumption.

The interface to Dorling Kindersley's Eyewitness Encyclopedia of Nature. The interface is reminiscent of a 19th century scientist's oak desk, complete with books, a globe, and barometer.

The user clicks through several of these items, each loading a new window and prompting the user for more interaction.

When I'm not writing, I'm a #rural #physician. (#hematology #oncology). On the bird site, the trolls scared me away from posting about the reality & stresses of rural #healthcare, but I'm sharing that here b/c we need to stand up to #misinformation

I also share #PetPics & #parenting stories

How long have I been doing #Match3? 33 years! Hopefully in the next year I will find time to build a modern version of Amy's Game. Anyway if you have a virtual machine handy or don't mind installing the Adobe AIR runtime you can grab a free copy here.

Amy's Game Icon, a match-3 game. Looking for something familiar yet different? What do you get when you combine the lucky spin of a slot machine, the patience of solitaire and a match three game? You get Amy's Game that's what! Amy's game literally takes the shape matching game mechanic in a different direction. Allowing players to move and match shapes on the board in new ways opens up a challenging yet relaxing style of play that rewards creative thinkers. The rules are simple you can move any shape on the board into any of its surrounding locations as long as the move creates a group of three or more of the same shape. Horizontal, vertical or diagonal groups are removed and the shapes supported by them are moved downwards. Stars are collected by removing shapes from their locations and above, collect them all before you run out of moves and you win it's that easy.

Remember when it was touted that #HTML5 would be a great #Flash replacement? Has there been any tools created to replicate what we were able to do with Flash in HTML5 / #JS, and #CSS?
