well…this mod AND game was made in java. i feel like we should be able to craft lua pcs, and java pcs seperatly, however the java should be a bit harder to make, as java is more powerful. dan200, i think your an awesome mod dev, and your currently working on a gr8 update(command block pcs) but i feel that we NEED this!!!!

This has been suggested several times, with Java, Python, etc. It would be an enormous amount of work to implement. What would be the benefit? What could the Java computers do that the Lua computers can't? How would you sandbox them without crippling some important features of the language?

Does anyone put something serious here?

No. When I started CC I thought "Why can't I write in Python?". However I love Lua now (yes, I am slightly crazy). We don't
need Java, though if you really want it I recommend looking at
JVML-JIT which I think is the most impressive thing on the forums.
Java, Python, whatever has been recommended before and maybe could be implemented by an external mod. I'm sure it might be possible to do something with Security Managers, but would require a rewrite of so much of CC it is not worth it for the few people who would use it.
