Reduce battery usage by controlling Flash in Safari
I think the easiest way to block flash is to totally disable JavaScript. Most (if not all) Flash is usually loaded with javaScript and by disabling javascript, you can also block AJAX and other frilly dynamic page, CPU wasters. A lot of the old school DarpaNet guys still use text only for browsing (hence the alt tag for images is still relevant).

Those are definitely great ways to improve your battery life, but you probably won't be able to get to too many web sites with your airport turned off. Flash generally eats a lot more CPU on the mac than in Windows, so maybe that's why this affects us so much (although I hear performance improvements are coming).

I should have clarified. Obviously disabling Airport would not let you see the flash (or anything else from the web) unless you are hard wired with ethernet. Still - I do see a lot of Mac users at the airports using an ethernet cable with no power and running their airport. |
