Actually, this is one *kind* of thing that I hate, because it causes breakage all over the place. If you're on an older system (whatever the OS/device/browser is), having HTTP forced into HTTPS frequently results in being unable to use the site because they can't find a mutually acceptable HTTPS scheme. While I don't use it on the browser, there's quite a few sites which implement it themselves (you go to http://example.com and *they* redirect you to https://example.com). > You won't need flash on many sites anyway. I don't agree with that, either. There's scads of sites that use Flash for video, YouTube for one (it's only partially HTML5), News websites, etc. And plenty of sites that provide audio-only (radio, streaming, or simply "listen to my file" services) use Flash. Just about anything that wants to control your viewing/listening to only viewing it through their service, rather than being possible to download it, use Flash as the method. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list. less is more when playing with your cat... -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
