Well iPad and iPhone did have the same OS at first, so they knew how to do that. I would have preferred when they forked iPad OS out for them to have converged desktop and iPad instead of making a 3rd distinct OS variant. I can’t reasonably say that a docked iPad is the same as a Mac, as commercial apps I use have different versions, with different capabilities, for iPad and Mac. Things like Adobe Lightroom andIK Multimedia Amplitube. But my Surface Pro has one set of apps whether I’m docked at home, using a clamshell keyboard case, or as a tablet and pen. That’s more useful to me than having a really well polished and dedicated tablet OS.

I’m thinking this is the opposite direction, with the enhanced desktop mode in Android 16. You hook your phone up to a KVM and get Chrome desktop, complete with containerized Linux apps and your mobile apps staying on your mobile device.

Apple doesn’t exactly try to converge OS platform, even forking off iPad OS from iOS.

Microsoft’s converged desktop and tablet OS hasn’t been well regarded.

Google’s efforts to make Android well suited on tablets has been poorly maintained.

I did find ChromeOS Flex on an old Surface Pro 3 to be a pretty good tablet experience. I’m cautiously optimistic about this, though I haven’t tried the desktop mode on my Pixel 7.

Lincoln should have had every single one of them rounded up and shot after the war

Given that he was killed during Reconstruction, I’d put that on Andrew Johnson (a Southern Democrat) and the Congress.

more like monetizing the Dunning Kruger effect.

Because then I could know that I could control where the data went.

It being open source doesn’t mean you can mosify and run your own software on it and still have the agency accept you are compliant.

I don’t recognize either brandings and they looked like sauce bottles (like varieties of vinegar, seed oils, marinades, etc). 🤷

Ok, I seemed to have forgotten about the existence of non-beverage glass bottles when looking at this post. I was only thinking of like soda, beer, and wine glass bottles.

That is my impression. To be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a glass bottle with a plastic cap. And I can’t really recall seeing what looked like unpainted metal caps except for homebrew stuff (and even then, it might be painted to what we think unpainted should look like).

their caps are fully plastic, not painted metal. The non-screwtop metal caps need to be bent to release their grip on the bottle. That scrapes the paint off the metal cap.

For PDF is does splitting and merging and rotating pages.

He looks like he’s wearing his skin as a mask. Like a Roboputin.

So glad I never got on WhatsApp

I’ve always and only ever heard doctors phrase their recommendation in terms of heart rate. The study here is announcing the result of what they tested. They didn’t put mice on bikes or towers or ellipticals, so they couldn’t really conclude about those options.

I would have absolutely bought an iPad instead of a Surface Pro if I could run desktop MacOS applications on it when docked to desktop peripherals. I want one single convergent device for tablet and desktop.

We really should be talking about Rampart.

I meant a specialized application, like the Atari one that beat the LLM.

Human brains lose to computerized chess all the time, though. So I guess this is a win for AI tech bros?

I mean yeah better OS upgrade support would be the bees knees. But at 13" may as well just get a proper laptop or a Lenovo Duet, in my opinion.

Only the one screen size?
