I'm using a 50Mbit/s connection writing this in China. Slashdot worked on the third reload and I'm usually struggling to watch video online. Websites inside China work well, everything outside is painstakingly slow. China has their own self-contained internet, most of my usual websites need vpn.

I miss VGA Bomb.

So we are the last generations that will die. That's just great...

Flash is just a big pile of bad coding. Make it awesome like h264 and I'll happily continue to use it. Otherwise, put it to rest already.

In addition to faster data delivery the new chimps also claim to consume less energy than previous versions. Could be. Chips Outscore College Students on Memory Test. Most likely. I'm getting tired.
