there is a simple way to stop having to do that in chrome.

just because flash is no longer going to be supported does not mean it will end completely. I know many companies that still use Windows 95 and some who even use plain DOS, mostly Defense contractors that have ancient test stations and software that works perfectly fine but does not operate on later operating systems and the cost to change is extremely prohibitive. plus it gives me job security LOL

P.S. Now I feel REALLY confident in the U.S. government's cybersecurity.

The logic behind all this seems to be "Thing works well? Cool. Scrap it. When they ask why we're making absolutely everything inconvenient for everyone, just say it's 'More convenient this way' and list off reasons that apply to almost nobody nowhere."

I mean, I mainly use Internet Explorer. Despite so many people VOMITING at the mere mention of the thing, it has served me well for...ever. I have more issues with Chrome, Firefox, Opera, etc than I've ever had with IE. "UGH BUT IT'S SO SLOW." ...Maybe a little? Like, barely? Only to the same people that think anything lower than 4000FPS and 100,000p is insultingly obsolete. But this is what you get when you have people so obsessed with the new and shiny that they don't care how much inconvenience they cause everyone else.
