Uh...those aren't Flash sites you fucking doorknob. They have some
Flash bits IN THEM...although the reason they're not working on Linux
has NOTHING to do with Flash so much as the HTML code that's putting
them out. Specifically nyah:
: src="/ent/teaser_games.swf?d=teaser.games.xml&l=/ent/games/
Oh yeah, that's fucking brilliant right there. I'd like to find the
cookie cutter making doorknob who came up with that bit of retarded
just so I can bitch slap them real good.
Further, next time, before you look stupid, CHECK THE VERSION you
stupid retard. All the Flash content on those two sites doesn't even
clock past version 7 and there's a FULLY working, non beta version of
Flash 7 already available for Linux.

Um, hello, retard, the Flash 9 for Linux beta version will work on ALL
FORMS OF LINUX...well unless maybe it's some specialized off the wall
piece of shit that no one has even heard of that wasn't even designed
for use as a desktop environment.

Again, how fucking stupid are you? I mean like BeOS, that's NOT a
desktop environment for end users, that's a SPECIALIZED OS used in
media appliances. If you're trying to use BeOS as a desktop
environment to surf the Internet and run Microsoft Word 'n shit yer an
even bigger retard than I first suspected. I mean hells bells,
Junior, you might just as well be whining that there's no Flash
version for yer fuckin Commodore 64 you stupid jackass.

Ahhh but breaking Flash is usually dependant upon broken HTML code.
And going by the W3C School's site (which is actually targeted towards
NON mainstream, Windows/IE users):
http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp
Linux is faltering at only 3.5% and FALLING...platforms that count for
less than 0.5% aren't listed. In other words, by choosing a site form
which gives you near limitless options as far as multimedia based
content you're only looking at around a 1 to 2 percent POTENTIAL loss
in visitors. Of course that's assuming that, that 1 to 2 percent
would even visit your site if it was all plain text...and that's a bit
of a stretch. Realistically you're not looking at any sort of loss,
but hey, I'm tryin to humor your deficiency here. ^_^
....not that it's even relevant since my site form INCLUDES a plain
text fall back version. Go visit my main Backwater site with Linx, or
just turn off Javascript and such, the plain text version will pop
right up.
The main point though is that you shouldn't bother to try and "pretty
up" the plain text using CSS and shit. If you want a DESIGN and
MULTIMEDIA then do it in Flash, don't try and retard off the lesser
solution. If the Amish of the Internet want plain text, fine, give
them plain text, but don't give those stupid assholes any more than
that at the expense of what you could be offering those who WANT the
design rich environment, because there's no real reason for it outside
of catering to stupidity (cause if they really wanted more than plain
text they could get a REAL browser like Konqueror, Firefox, Internet
Explorer, etc).
