Blaki, recenzja Bajkochłonki


Blakiego poznałam pierwszy raz dopiero niedawno, choć jest on już w zasadzie dorosłym mężczyzną. Jego postać została stworzona przez Mateusza Skutnika w 2001 roku.

Przy okazji Komiksowej Warszawy 2020, a także 100-lecia Polskiego Komiksu egzemplarz “Blaki” można było otrzymać bezpłatnie, co – zdradzę już na początku, okazało się niezłą gratką.

Blaki to jegomość niskiego wzrostu ze spiczastymi uszami. Podejrzewam, że jego podobieństwo do Mistrza Yody nie jest przypadkowe. Zamiast świetlnego miecza towarzyszy mu jednak niezmiennie cienki i długi papieros.

“Blaki” jest zbiorem wielu krótszych i dłuższych komiksów, które najlepiej charakteryzują głównego bohatera jako filozofującego pesymistę z resztką realistycznego rozsądku.

Każda indywidualna historia jest dla czytelnika satysfakcjonująca – jedna mniej, inna bardziej. Prawdopodobnie szybko znajdziecie swoje ulubione. Ja wyjątkowo doceniłam tę o czajniku, który odpowiada za śmierć i życie w kosmosie.

Sporo jest opowieści z komunikacji miejskiej – są one widocznie wyjątkowo inspirujące dla autorów. Można liczyć także na solidny komentarz otaczającej nas rzeczywistości, absurdy niczym z Barei oraz przekrój najgorszych cech narodu.

W “Blakim” to zawsze on jest najczarniejszą postacią na rozkładówce – oczywiście pod względem kolorystycznym. Otacza go dużo szarości, a tekst wpisany w kadry często stapia się z otoczeniem.

Miło było poznać Blakiego i dobrze jest wiedzieć, że historie z nim w roli głównej ciągle będą powstawać. Jeżeli gdzieś traficie na ten komiks – nie wahajcie się, zabierzcie go ze sobą do domu. Polecam nastolatkom i dorosłym.

Adobe Flash Player End-of-Life (EOL)


When is the Flash Player end-of-life (EOL)?

As previously announced in July 2017, Adobe will stop distributing and updating Flash Player after December 31, 2020 (“EOL Date”). We made this announcement in collaboration with several of our technology partners – including Apple, Facebook, Google, Microsoft and Mozilla – which issued complementary announcements with more technical detail on what the Flash Player EOL will mean for developers, enterprises, and consumers using their specific OS environments or browsers.

Why did Adobe decide to EOL Flash Player and select the end of 2020 date?

Open standards such as HTML5, WebGL, and WebAssembly have continually matured over the years and serve as viable alternatives for Flash content. Also, the major browser vendors are integrating these open standards into their browsers and deprecating most other plug-ins (like Adobe Flash Player).By announcing our business decision in 2017, with three years’ advance notice, we believed that would allow sufficient time for developers, designers, businesses, and other parties to migrate existing Flash content as needed to new, open standards

How will this decision impact Adobe Flash Player support and distribution for the remainder of the year (2020)?

Adobe will continue issuing regular Flash Player security patches, maintain OS and browser compatibility, and add features and capabilities as determined by Adobe through the end of 2020.

Will Adobe make previous versions of Adobe Flash Player available for download after 2020?

No. Adobe will be removing Flash Player download pages from its site and Flash-based content will be blocked from running in Adobe Flash Player after the EOL Date.
Adobe always recommends using the latest, supported and up-to-date software. Customers should not use Flash Player after the EOL Date since it will not be supported by Adobe.

If I find Flash Player available for download on a third-party website, can I use it?

No, these versions of Flash Player are not authorized by Adobe. Customers should not use unauthorized versions of Flash Player.  Unauthorized downloads are a common source of malware and viruses.  Adobe has no responsibility for unauthorized versions of Flash Player and customers’ use of such versions is entirely at their own risk.

Which browsers and operating systems currently support Adobe Flash Player?

Please visit http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/tech-specs.html for the latest list of Flash-supported browsers and operating systems. Note, as it gets closer to the EOL Date, the number of Flash-supported browsers and operating systems may decrease so Adobe strongly encourages customers to migrate to other standards.

Will Adobe provide security updates for Flash Player after the end-of-life date?

Adobe will not issue Flash Player updates or security patches after the EOL Date. We recommend that all users uninstall Flash Player before the EOL date (see manual uninstall instructions for Windows and Mac users). As of mid-October 2020, users started being prompted by Adobe to uninstall Flash Player on their machines since Flash-based content will be blocked from running in Adobe Flash Player after the EOL Date.

Does Apple Safari support Flash Player?

Apple Safari version 14, released for macOS in September 2020, will no longer load Adobe Flash Player or play Flash content. Please visit Apple’s Safari support for more information.
