Haha. Despite the misinformation, one pronounces OS/X as "Oh, sex".
This from a company that had to re-badge their 68k era computer as SE/30 because the existing naming convention of appending X to everything was considered too raunchy.
I'll take SumatraPDF (Windows) and Atril (debian) any day.
That said, JS-based viewers are a price to pay for not installing Adobe products and optimisation feeds performance increases back into the scripting engine.
Slimport (LG devices) and MHL (everyone else) are built into the phone's electronics.
I have a displaylink usb-to-dvi-to-dsub dongle and it's baulky. There's no reason not to add support for it but except that whoever wrote the implementation had a Nexus 5 and it was good enough over Slimport as TVs and monitors these days have HDMI-in.
Multiple monitors via an OTG hub would be a reason.
To be fair, when she was repeating those lines, the man's dialogue seemed somewhat more fluid.
Maybe AI is just reinforcing the gender stereotyping where a genius nerd tries to explain his bleeding edge research to an unbelievably hot wife (Alicia in A Beautiful Mind, Penny in TBBT, Evelyn in Transcendence etc).
It's just jumbling up a bunch of words and choosing them randomly to fill subject/predicate templates based on the type of word they are (noun, verb, etc.)
I blame the translation - I'm sure it sounded much more coherent in the original Klingon.:)
Google doesn't do desktop Linux. ChromeOS and Android show a NIH disdain for anything not locked into their ecosystems. (Although Android 7 is supposedly offering windowed mode on tablets?)
Canonical (Convergence) and Microsoft (Continuum) are the ones developing dockable UIs but their share of the phone market is, what, 1% ?
Tim Cook will save us... After several years of stagnant sales of macBooks and iPads as a result of MS Surface clones, Apple in 2019 will release a hybrid universal iOS/X that runs on all of their machines - journalists will fawn over it as exhilarating, revolutionary and breath-taking.
Having to recompile things potentially in 32 bit and 64 bit versions just to support different versions of operating systems got old some time ago.
Little wonder MS are underhandedly forcing everyone to upgrade to Windows 10. (tinfoil hat telemetry and hardware driver support, it's a reasonable plan)
On 32 bit support though, Intel continue to support an industry crippled by budget computers with 4GB RAM or less, when in this day and age an 8GB stick is a small fraction of the cost of a decent machine.

Because it's a Cold War relic that non Atlantic Europe signed up for in opposition to Russia.
But Canada and the USA are the only Pacific nations in it by virtue of bordering both oceans.
NATO? You're skitting me.
Geography fail - how can South Korea be expected to be a signatory to a North Atlantic treaty?
Customer: "I'll have a cafe late"
Barista: "Would you like it now or later?"
When these LG things go cheap on ebay, I might consider one on which to load Asteroid OS
they'd require a Chrome-like numbering scheme to catch up to 500 in roman numerals and even then, Lennart would probably sue.

One needs a Core i7 to render a PDF these days??

$5,000,000,000 you say?
To put that in perspective that's more than the GDP of Barbados!
Apple's self-driving electric vehicle will need charging stations across the 50 states.
Expect them to partner with a roadside diner chain. charge car battery, get a bite to eat while a Genius services your iPad...

I dunno, the ending with a woman's monologue about young love conceiving a child then lost to a miscarriage was deep, man.
It seemed like a pastiche of 90s surrealism and certainly no worse than a film directed by David Lynch and starring Parker Posey and Jared Leto. :)

I mean, WTF? It's 2016 and you're not answering calls via your $600 smartwatch connected to your bluetooth headset? :)
Of course they do.
Elements 99 and 112 were named in memory of characters from the Back to the Future trilogy.
Timothy was the worst Bond ever, that's why.

Don't Apple already have a range of pricey screens called iMac? :)
They sell like hotcakes.
Occam went broke because no one would buy his razor blades.
Has anyone ever noticed that Elon is an anagram of "Neo L" ?
Surely that's a clue that we're living in a matrix.
What is Elon smoking ?
