::: Adobe Flash - DON'T PANIC!! (It's not coming back) - enter RUFFLE
Ruffle - a Flash Player EMULATOR written in Rust in safety.
Works on all major operating systems / browsers via WebAssembly.
** The memory safety of Rust guarantees a secure implementation of Flash **
All existing Flash content is intended to get working.
#GraffitiArchaeology is up and running again! Thanks to the beautiful and generous geniuses who created #Ruffle (the Rust-based Flash emulator), old school web art can come back for another round. It even works (sort of) on a mobile phone! http://grafarc.org/flash/view.htm
Looks like #Neopets is relaunching with more than 50 games through the #Ruffle Flash emulator & converting their "beloved games to #HTML5".

Well, this is interesting--
To review, #Adobe yanked its #Flash thingie over security issues. Those of us who play Flash arcade games were hell bent on making Flash games work anyway.
One of them was #PaleMoon and the other was #Ruffle, and when visiting a website using Ruffle with Pale Moon, hilarity ensues in the form of error messages for the admin.
Things worked more smoothly with Ruffle when using Firefox browser, but not by much. A lot of times you couldn't just play the game--you'd have to refresh first and then hit the Play button on the Ruffle prompt...otherwise, you get stats but no game.
More fun than a barrel o monkeys.

PICA's Aloha Festival is this weekend in San Mateo. I've always loved about PICA that they say admission is free - it's parking that folks are paying for.
In any case, I'll bet there will be a lot of fundraising for Maui there on top of the usual activities.

I just figured out how to use lists on #Mastodon and holy excrement this is useful. Combined with #Sengi's multi-column display and I get a sense of how people can keep up to date with a #SocialMedia feed while also holding down a full-time job.
Divorce brings many challenges, including finding new accommodations under duress. Yet the high cost of housing and an ongoing housing crunch is making that part of the process that much harder for couples going their separate ways, experts say. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/divorce-housing-challenges-canada-1.6926859 https://nitter.hongkongers.net/CBCNews/status/1689683465707429901#m

I learned today after several frustrating part failures that #3dprinting in general isn't capable of producing 'watertight' surfaces because the layers (while appearing solid) are in fact full of microscopic pores (gaps between the layers of filament essentially) that both air and water can seep through.
Another one of those, “I will climb where I want”.
