It's been about three and a half hours since I complained about the lack of 64 bit Flash for Linux. Just a minute ago, I was checking out the latest on my RSS feed, and there was a Flash video on BoingBoing. Firefox popped up the little message, asking if I wanted to install the plugin.
I figured it wouldn't work, but I did it anyway. The package manager installed flashplugin-nonfree, and it worked! I can watch YouTube videos! I can use Google Analytics! Even MLB GameDay works! It's amazing!
So, I apologize, Ubuntu. You've been so good to me, and I nearly kicked you to the curb just because Fedora put out a new distro.
But I'm back now. I'm right back on the Ubuntu bandwagon.
On a side note, I'm available for freelance complaining. This is not the first time I've complained about something that was magically fixed soon afterwards. For a very reasonable hourly rate, I'll complain about something that you'd like fixed.
Results not guaranteed. Nor even expected.
