Sup motherfuckers, what are your opinions on html5? I always see articles saying that html5 will eventually replace flash, and the argument seems reasonable. So I just searched around and found this sweet link: http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_video_js_prop I was thinking FUCK YES, I don't have to have that shitty FlashPlayerPlugin_11_4_402_287.exe take up 70,000k of memory! I have 4GB of RAM, but still, I truly enjoy keeping my process list short.
Positive: can get rid of Flash Negative: I'll need a new browser plugin similar to NoScript but for HTML5 ; last time I checked it was way too CPU-hungry, even for simple games (although it's possible the games were made by complete idiots)
HTML5 done right can be awesome, Youtubes' move to HTML5 video playback is a good example. I get much less resource usage then Flash on both Linux and Windows. I can see your point about the plugins issue though >>355 -- why not suggest it to the NoScript devs?
