I'll continue tomorrow.

All this stuff feels quirky, right?
But have you ever tried using WAsm component as audio plug-in? 🤪

In turn, that one was better than ActiveX.
Yep, often the case: the only justification for using some modern broken shit is that it's slightly better than old horribly broken shit 😂
@newt
Why? I didn't have to use it or develop software using it to remember of its existence — and in the corporate space it was still pretty much alive in the early 2000s.
I do remember when MS decided to distance from Sun and made their own incompatible version of Java though 😂
@newt
I still have no idea what the true nature of the problem was, the standard library was a bit different (?), but when the error came up I had no idea how to fix that and I had to contact colleagues from the head IT office in another country — they've told me to try the *other* Java, surprisingly it did work and I was like: "Wait… WHAT?!!!" 🤣
