Firefox 52- an end to an era

Recommended Posts

Firefox ended support for NPAPI with FF52. That means Java, Silverlight etc PLUGINS won´t work anymore. Only Flahs plugin is left alone, though I personally turned it off ages ago in favor of HTML5.

Mozilla is developing WASM now to enable programs to be run within web browser sandbox.

One cool demo is here, you can click on it and play  around with it a bit:

EPIC engine demo:

Some more info from Arstechnica:

I wonder how this demo runs on "potato rigs" as it takes 64% of my Fury X GPU recourses and 55% of I5 cpu?

 

Extensions are still there and I got even my Estonian ID card working on 64x version.
