Sorry I don't understand what is the connection between HTML5 and Flash? Isn't flash an object that runs inside HTML5? What would you like Adobe to have done exactly?

Fair enough. I know they're just words on paper with escalating levels of authority, and at the end of the day we get the government/money we want/deserve. I personally benefited some $2000/year from the Trump tax cuts t

Love the charts, then scroll to the bottom and "oh, Bitcoin". Sorry but there are other ways. Did you know that the Balanced Budget Amendment (proposal) failed by a single vote in 1995?

Could you drill down to specific examples of things Trump did that you think no president should be able to do? I'll go first but in an ironic way. Trump pulled out of the Paris climate accord which, if you peruse the Constitution [1],
