How will people play Street Fighter IV 10 years from now?
Probably the same way people play SF1 now, sitting in the same room. Online play in SFIV is a bonus, it is very different from Assassin's Creed which demands online connectivity even in single-player mode.
They are trying to do everything by themselves. This attitude causes big failures like wave and small ones like badly designed APIs (some parts of Android are simply horrible) and bad integration among Google's own products like bookmarks and the rest.
Did you ever heard of Azul Systems? They sell hardware with up to 768 processing cores on 16 processor chips and 768 Gbytes of memory and a JVM optimized for this kind of hardware.
i'm saying they most definitely are interested in tech that often starts in the usa
We see more use of USA tech because most western innovation happens there.
this renders languages other than english at an automatic, and continuing, disadvantage
They have to have an english version because english is the universal language. But the majority of non-english speaking people will only use facebook for example if it's translated to their language. The native language of the developers doesnt matter.
their english manifestations are their largest elements
Citation needed. With more than a half of the people in the world using non-latin languages, it's hard to believe.

What FBI warning??
Google App Engine solves this for Java.
They could have used python, and even reused Sugar.
They *can* use python, have you heard of Jython? Or http://code.google.com/p/android-scripting/ ?
I wonder why there are so many JVM implementations out there... Even bundled in linux distributions.
they need to link non-GPL code into the implementation
It's their problem, not Sun's.
Java is, and always has been, a proprietary platform
Then why are there so many FOSS implementations?

+1
let's stick with it and continue to push it.
No, let's use automatic on-the-fly translation to each other language. Like google wave translation bots: http://googlewavebots.info/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page#Wave_Language_and_Translation_Bots
Don't forget the eclipse JDT compiler. It's even better than the oracle one in many ways.
Where?
Virtually, every single phone in the world... oh, and there is Android too.

As far as I know Google apps are closed source. You might not be able to implement this.

You see, the US have death penalty too. Just saying...
Why all these devices have MicroSD ports instead of simple SD ports? Dont tell me it's about size, my palm zire 72 launched in 2004 have one.
And consumption is rising in the developing world while you dont descrease yours. That's why it's the END OF THE WORLD! OMG!
Um.. Only them?
Apples and oranges...
WTF is NSA?
The web should be freely accessible for everyone.

inevitably this drives them to the english web, since there's more of whatever they're looking for over there
I doubt it. I big part of the english internet is USA-centric, they dont give a shit about it.
