Welcome back.
There was another change in the CDN URL (to codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net) after switching the provider. Hopefully this will be not changed for some time.

Doing the Java update on my work PC (I won't let it anyway near my own machines) I noticed again Oracle's claim that "3 billion devices run Java".
I call BS.
I suspect most of those are things like older feature phones that are now languishing in a bin somewhere.

Not really, for some arcane reason many tv, dvd players and digital TV receivers have the firmware written in java.

Many (all?) SIM cards and "smart" cards are programmed with Java.
I'd say its entirely possible.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

It's funny as when these stories were published weekly they use to bore me and I'll never read them. Now they go to the trouble of getting an injunction I just have to find out.
