Yeah I guess it's a "mobile vs non-mobile" thing instead of lack of flash support, but if flash content happened to be really rare then some browsers wouldn't have built-in support for it.
But having built-in support for flash is obviously better than having to install the Adobe flash plug-in.

Now I don't know what causes the problem that I have just described a few posts ago, and I'm not really defending flash, but I've lost count of how many times in the past I had to stop browsing the web on my iPad and go to my PC simply because some video or website wouldn't work correctly due to lack of flash support on the iPad. Things are much better nowadays obviously.
I prefer having no flash by default but still having the option to install it if really necessary.

Interesting idea but I don't think I'd trust a 3rd party tool to do that rather than OS or maybe official HDD drivers.

Well, Samsung offers the memory as cache thing, though not with as much. IIRC AMD SSDs offered free RAM drive software when purchased. But yeah, a glitch is always possible. This a fairly popular utility, some would even call it "Primo", and though I'm not connected to the company I'll just let people google for it if they're interested.
I browse their forums and word on the street is why might see some new options with the next update. We might get the option to not read-cache videos, and we might get the option to write-cache to a SSD so as to speed up spinner drives. That could be really useful if you can spare an old SSD, or just a dedicated partition on it, for those reads and writes. The utility can even pre-fetch your cache at boot-up. It works fairly intelligently and drops stuff from the pre-fetch that haven't been used in a while.
what do you mean by MIDI device for adverts?Do you use an external MIDI synth to play audio on your PC? I did that for a long while, using my Roland SD-50 for everything audio related. But I wonder why anything on the net would like to take control of your midi device.
that's the usual behaviour, but why the MIDI device, which works in a completely different way than a typical audio processor that plays pre-recorded audio. A website should never need a MIDI device to play sound except in some specific cases like pages with MIDI files sounding in the background, which were not uncommon back in the day --though I haven't found any of those in like a decade or so.
A stupid thing, but my taskbar has been staying onscreen when I make movies/videos fullscreen. It started a little while ago, after my "safe rebuild" thingy. Found a stupid fix for it yesterday.
Just go to task manager and restart Explorer.exe, that's it. Then it'll be fine until next boot.
Figured I hadn't contributed much to this, but having real fulscreen back has made my life a bit better so I thought I'd share the tip.

me too,my laptop's screen is very small,11" and when multitasking I want all the space I can get. I have it placed to the left so it's less annoying and gives extra vertical space, plus with programs that have several instances open its easier to switch from one instance to another.
Now Edge has a different support for flash -insider build-. Instead of a slider to turn it on & off, it just asks you whether you want to enable the flash content or not.

Davros,is that you?@Cyan my soundcard has 2 midi synth's
but why midi ? the adverts audio is not in midi format (midi is basically digital sheet music)
its in a recorded format like wav or pcm or mp3

I was looking for Yamaha soft synths to accompany my Yamaha S-YXG50 soft synth, that I love so much, and found that thread.
Additionally, I've had many many MIDI players but the best one I've ever had I found it recently, it is MIDIPlayer 4.4. It has all the features I ever wanted in a little pocket MIDI Player,kudos to the creator of that incredible software. I use it to play my MIDI files using the Yamaha S-YXG50 and my Roland TTS1 soft synth that came with Music Creator 6 -though I had to find the VSTi version, Edirol Hyper Canvas.

Posted this somewhere else, but I think this is worth sharing...
A guy installs the first version of MS-DOS, and he upgrades it to all versions of Windows until it reaches 10, and he checks if the programs and documents continue to run at every leap.
The PC, a world of almost infinite backwards compatibility.
