From TFS:

HP has unveiled the first commercial hardware for Google Beam, the Android-maker's 3D video conferencing technology

...you're my only hope.

Who actually supports Android OS? Who ya gonna call?

Arming the Ukrainians who are doing all the fighting and dying.

If that's really the goal, then we should stop dilly dallying and fully support the Ukrainians who have not only wiped out the Russian Black Sea fleet and done serious damage to the 12 mile land bridge to Crimea for both rail and automobiles, but have wiped out a large portion of Russia's strategic bomber fleet capable of launching nuclear missiles at us. The Ukrainians are doing all the fighting and dying for their own democracy, and ruining Russia in the process. Why can't we fully support them? Oh right, because our current admin is corrupt.

Thanks to the Ukrainian military, the Russian military has been seriously degraded, all while we sold off our old artillery stockpiles that were aging out anyway, not to mention the F-16s donated by our European allies.

Or maybe we could send sensors instead of people. Oh wait, that's already happened, so this really is just a pissing contest.

You're correct, and your most splendid, detailed, and technically informative comment is insightful.

Meanwhile upon reflection I just want to correct something I wrote earlier. I wrote, "People understand Apple, Microsoft, Linux, SAMSUNG", but what I meant to write, "People understand Apple, Microsoft, Google, SAMSUNG", (because of paid marketing).

I'm sorry, but as I get older I keep messing up like this.

My oldest Intel NUC circa 2016 is still my primary workstation, the others are all servers. All have 32 GB of RAM, run Linux, with no software issues as to modernity. So far, so good, with no end in sight.

Apple is consumer grade hardware that comes with limited hand-holding if you visit the Apple Store where you bought it, it seems. For those that can afford anything, I won't knock it, especially if they're pros, but for most folks Apple is a poor value due to planned obsolescence, but then go and try to explain Linux to everyone.

People understand Apple, Microsoft, Linux, SAMSUNG, because they saw an ad financed by a product that costs real money. This is why Linux always loses. #marketing

Q: How many Microsoft engineers are required to screw in a lightbulb?

A: None, because Microsoft can declare Darkness the new Standard.

Anyone who knows about The Terminator understands this.

Everything you just wrote is true while I am motivated to add a few details: Black Magic manufactures a ton of nice hardware seriously worth looking at and pretty much any purchase includes a free license of Da Vinci Resolve Studio, so that's like a $300 coupon from a certain perspective.

In addition to Inkscape for editing PDF details, I also use this tool to re-arrange page order. And the standard Document Viewer used by Ubuntu is useful for saving annotations on PDFs.

LibreOffice also has very good PDF capabilities, (primarily exporting as PDF while LibreOffice Draw can open and edit them like Inkscape as I recall -- Inkscape works better as I recall because I haven't used LibreOffice Draw other than testing a long time ago.).
