Google and Microsoft are no longer supporting the Java API on their platforms.
It is a good decision considering how insecure java is and always with the constant updates.

Does this have anything to do with Google's decision to stop search results for sites that don't have a mobile version? I have no idea of this is a dumb question.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

I think you may be confusing Java the language and runtime environment and the Java browser plugin.

The former is fine and not going anywhere.  The latter needs to die in a fire anyway.

Google is doing that? That's fucked.

I thought that is just for the insecure applet plugin in browsers

Phew! That's my livelihood you're talking about, don't scare me like that.  Tongue
"Faith is a state of openness or trust. To have faith is like when you trust yourself to the water. You don't grab hold of the water when you swim, because if you do you will become stiff and tight in the water, and sink. You have to relax, and the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging, and holding on. In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe becomes a person who has no faith at all. Instead they are holding tight. But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be."

Except that #Net only runs on Windows.

I try to avoid Windows where possible.

That's kind of like saying that dog shit smells better than pig shit.

Browser-side arbitrary code execution is a terribly evil thing.
