I don't give a crap, I don't want my browser crashing when flash does.
Youtube and Beatport seem to work and that's all I need.

Not to mention you can "killall npviewer.bin" when you want flash to
stop eating all your !@#$ing CPU time.

Well actually it doesn't work ever since I upgraded to F10. I get some
weird selinux denial and the plugin crashes:
