Essentially, Oracle has killed Java by being too greedy. It just takes a long time to die, but it will go nowhere now.

What the hell are you talking about? What "greed" are you referring to? OpenJDK costs nothing to use, and it's the same as the Oracle JDK which just offers support in exchange for money. You don't need to pay for it.

Actually, the lockdowns were doomed to fail anyhow. Forcing people into crowded quarantine camps just because you might have been near someone who was infected ensures that you get infected anyhow. Everyone in the West knew that lockdowns were only temporarily effective until vaccines and other treatments became available. China had no exit strategy.

Wow. Do you seriously believe what you wrote? By following this logic, you can also blame yourself for not taking down Putin. Don't live in Russia? Why should that make a difference? By doing nothing to stop him, you therefore support his actions. You say, "rulers are servants of the people", but in a dictatorship, this statement is flipped around.
