Yeah because why only have a legal battle with one evil software compnay, when you could battle two at the same time! Just to show off how much of a silicon badass you are.
Cmon Oracle and Microsoft, Google will fuck your shit up 2 on 1!
Microsoft licensed the Java platform and trademark and then intentionally built an incompatible implementation, put the Java logo on it and claimed compatibility.
Android has never claimed to be a compliant Java platform, it merely lets you use the Java programming language and GNU's standard java library (gcj & libjava) to build apps for Android.
Could Bell Labs and Bjarne Stroupstroup take Oracle to court for using C/C++ without a copyright license in their products? Perhaps they use an implemention from a vendor that isn't the original one and thus don't have a license from the original author.
Think of the Billion$ they could make at Oracle's expense!

It doesn't matter, Elon Musks new cyberbees are going to make traditional bees obsolete.
Yeah you start your own company for the ability to create.
You work for a company for a pay check every coue of weeks.
I have a friend in the r&d lab.
Apparently, instead of a steering wheel there's just one giant button.
Oh noes $25! That's like 3 months of commoner flavored gruel mix!
Pff none match my TRS-800 now with 32GB of ram.
So it's kind of like a Google product, if Google made software in the 80's.
Well honestly the first few versions of Android weren't great.
I was an early adopter with the G1, etc.

Lol javafx!
I have bought them and Oracle products suck. For developers and end users.
Uh most of the world's business and web software ran on Java when Oracle bought Sun.
It was a huge reason why Oracle bought Sun in the first place, gave them some leverage over IBM, Google and other companies.
Oracle's products are extremely poor.

The problem with J2ME is that it's awful.
It's always been awful, I've always dreaded using apps on pre iOS/Android phones.
That's an interesting idea.

Java was never useful on phones until Google built something decent.
Sun/Oracle could never build a decent phone with Java, no matter how much money they pumped into it.
If you work somewhere that uses Oracle products or is considering an Oracle product, fight to the bone to get their shitware tossed out.
We need to end this company, it's a tumor in the software ecosystem.
Why not just get a flip phone instead?
It's "just a phone" and will last a week or more without charging.
I wouldn't be surprised if flip phones outsell Windows Phone 10 by a significant margin.
That's exactly how I felt reading it.
Yeah science, bitch!

Fucking over it's customers, business partners, employees, investors, family, government, religion, charities, etc.
Oracle is probably the worst company in tech, in every category.
It's interesting that Mary Ann Davidson was an accountant and then became the CSO at Oracle.
I'd wager it depends on how big our universe's turtle is.
Being someone who's riding the talk to your phone/watch bus, its so much faster than typing for many things.
Until you try to demo it to someone, that's when schroedingers cat mode activates.
Now I can have a voice assistant that works even less than Google now does!
