It's been years since Flash did anything useful, unless you count munching on all my RAM as 'useful.' Just like the Java plugin before it, Flash is dying a slow and ungraceful death, and Chrome is trying to help it on its way a little.

In December, Google will go further, and only show the HTML5 version of websites. If a site is Flash-only (because apparently that's still a thing!) you will have to specifically enable Flash for that site. Or, y'know, go back and make a note never to visit again. (more…)
