74 as I did the switch from iceweasle to firefox.
Did you know that on Linux you can uninstall programs while they are running and they won't crash?
 
74 yep, this is also the reason why the myth that linux computers never need to reboot exist.
They do, its just that even if you update the kernel it will stay running for as long as you want it to. However if you want to make use of the update you need to reboot (or relaunch the program but that is kind of hard when it is the kernel without rebooting the system :P)
 
76 and....I need to grab another java version from somewhere as ftb likes to throw an error about not having java 8 in my face.
 
76 the one in the repositories
java -version
java version "1.7.0_95"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.6.4) (7u95-2.6.4-1~deb8u1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.95-b01, mixed mode)

I probably just need to add the jessie-backports and install openjdk 8 from there
 
78 and the one from the backports worked :)
lenscas@Lenscas-desktop-1:~$ java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_72-internal"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_72-internal-b15)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.72-b15, mixed mode)

and, yes I am aware that I am using openjdk and not oracle.
