The memories… I often wondered what would happen to those wonderful Orisinal mini games after Flash's death, without actually checking out the site. Would Ferry Halim find the time to port them to "HTML5"? Would they just… disappear forever? It turns out that they know run in Ruffle[1], a Rust/WASM based Flash Player emulator I've never heard of (or forgotten about). The handful of them that I have tested work... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

shrug It finds its uses. It's just not that overstated. Sandspiel is quite popular and is built using WASM: https://sandspiel.club/ Google Earth - https://blog.chromium.org/2019/06/webassembly-brings-google-earth-to-more.html Ruffle (the "make Flash run safely" tool) - https://ruffle.rs/ Ableton's Learning Synths - https://learningsynths.ableton.com/ etc etc. It's just hard to tell when something is using... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

I was amazed that the site still runs, apparently still using the same engine. But it seems that it was a flash site (of course), and archive.org seems to replace Flash Player with "Ruffle" [1]. Either that, or someone of Tobin's team replaced Flash with Ruffle >= 2019. [1] https://ruffle.rs/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

If you miss the runtime, look into https://ruffle.rs/ and consider contributing to the project. If you miss the authoring tool, it's now called Adobe Animate: https://www.adobe.com/products/animate.html If you miss Flash games and animations, there seem to be a bunch of archives. The FlashPoint Collection has preserved over 170,000 games and animations: https://flashpointarchive.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

(1) Technically, I think that site works by identifying itself as the Google webcrawler and seeing the full-text version that many sites would like to have indexed. (2) There's the question of why that site isn't taken down (or how it pays its bills) and my guess is this: In the 2000s it was an open secret that you could read the news on most sites like The New York Times with the username and password... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

This pot roast with winter root vegetables (I use rutabaga instead of celery root, but any root veggies are perfect) No sides needed other than bread and/or maybe some noodles. If you want a green vegetable, track down a whole stalk of brussels sprouts and roast them. Recipe is paywalled on epicurious.com and you can no longer paste links from 12 ft ladder, but you can access yourself through it https://12ft.io/. Source: 6 months ago
