Java Applets

Java Applets can be pretty neat. Amazing simulations and effects. Fun games. etc. But when they automatically run when you are least expecting it .. they can cause hell for computer users. I’m sure you have all had that experience. Suddenly your browser pauses everything it is doing.. you think its crashing. And then the Java Debugger window pops up. You begin to realize what is happening and cross your fingers. There is no going back. You must wait for the applet to load. Sometimes its quick. Other times you resort to “end task”. Sometimes it never stops loading. No matter what the reward, it causes undue stress in our lives. Stop with the automatically loading and starting Java Applets dammit! Fuck.
