Adobe Flash Player for Firefox on Kubuntu

The first install is a new browser. Konqueror isn't for me, I'm a Firefox person. Surfing on to YouTube I notice that I have to install Adobe Flash Player for the videos to play.

Instead of installing a package suggested by the Adobe site I search web wide for a to me more simple way and came across this solution which worked like a charm:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplugin64-installer
Feeling like a Kubuntu newbie again, only difference is I now know what to search for. Feeling obligated to rediscover just how to install packages.
