That was the very effective argument used to repeal it, citing electricity prices. Never mind that we once had state government owned and regulated power monopolies - by the people, for the people. Until fraudsters in conservative parties decided to sell everything off to their mates heading 'megacorporations', who can now charge whatever they like.
Has anyone marketed one of these biochar machines as an ultra efficient cooking stove?
The problem with BBQs is not burying the coals in the backyard but the smoke that wafts up the chimney into the atmosphere. Solve that problem and you've got an off-grid heating and cooking mechanism.
A web browser and universal app platform rolled into a phone OS. Winning was not so much market share but 'keeping the bastards honest'.
But, to summon the app app luddite apps guy, a platform without software is stillborn and the mobile web stagnates...
Perhaps if management at Google loosened the strings, they'd release a spin of Chrome OS as a ROM for Nexus/Pixel devices - a web device with Android app support.
Then they're doing it wrongly.:) A point is defined as a physical size (e.g. 12 points = one sixth of an inch), not a pixel density. Didn't we solve this 25 years ago with TrueType?
Anyway, to answer the OP's question, because they can. This will require a corresponding quantum leap in video card performance, as you mention.
Besides, Kardashian is really hard to pronounce correctly.
I was searching for information about Ensign Harry Kim and dealings with the Cardassians and Google returned me information about some cosmetically-enhanced American chick.
Tin-foil aside, the benefit of AOSP is you can replace the firmware with a community ROM, long after Google has discontinued support for your Nexus device.
I do use f-droid but all the 'popular' apps are on Play. So for me it's Google-lite rather than free. The stock firmware includes dozens of Google apps, most of which I'll never use that keep wanting to update and because they're baked into the image, difficult to remove.
(yeah I know they're the devil and all that, so don't flame me) Personally, I welcome the competition, if it forces Google and Apple to lift their game.
MS apps on my phone: Outlook. Google have had 3 goes at building an email app and they all suck.
I haven't really played with WSL much but I liken it to a chroot. On my linux box I used to mount a USB drive containing another distro and chroot worked for the most part, except certain processes seemed to run better with some form of pre-run init and for simplicity I ended up using systemd-container to start the necessary services! Hence the windows environment is emulating linux syscalls behind the scenes but I would think there's some sort of init system magic occurring when the bash terminal is started up.
Maybe linux hackers are a bit slow on the uptake but automated builds and coverage of unit testing has been standard practice in 'Agile' circles for over a decade.
'fuzzing', according to wikipedia, was pioneered in 1988.
Running debian myself, there is/was a package to enable switching between init systems.
Problem is, the distro has moved ahead full steam with systemd, whereby running an alternative init is unsupported by way of extensive testing.
I used an alt-init for a while but for any moderately complex DE that requires the systemd-shim for session management (whatever that is!), weird stuff started to happen with dialog boxes telling me my permission levels were wrong or flakey stuff happening regarding acpi suspend/shutdown/hibernate.
And so, resistance is futile - prepare to be assimilated.
Apple will probably be all over this for their single usb-c port macbook. But you'll need an adapter to charge and listen at the same time and a dongle to use your lightning headphones you bought for your iPhone!

We had a carbon tax once, here in Australia.

Sorry, I was referring to the Scott Bakula TV show.
Yes I know that. But like I was saying, I thought we solved that a long time ago with vector font formats such as TrueType.
I have a 19 and a 21 inch monitor on my desk. I imagine moving the screen back 10cm would compensate, although I might require a broader table!

Harrison ford needs the $$$$
First indiana jones then star wars, now blade runner.

Elon's Mars colony - are people expected to live longer or shorter on the red planet?
never explain. :)
Overlord issues 'BUG_ON() considered harmful' edict 14 years ago and only now thinks about removing said anti-feature?

Your ears are only 40 years old? What sort of nerd are ya? :) You should be able to pick up some genuine Spock ears from the ST-TOS online.
Just finger prints? At some airports I travelled through, they did iris scanning too.

Originally about lisp, Greenspun's tenth rule of programming.
What bootstrapping if any does it use?

One can find a comparable brand name Brix or NUC for a similar price and it takes all of 20 minutes to install one's favourite distro.
The novelty here is it's AMD based and profits go back to the Mint project.
