Samsung introduces Notebook 9 Pro with S-pen

Samsung Notebook 9 Pro

This is a good news for Scribblers and Artist! Samsung's new Notebook 9 Pro comes complete with an "embedded" S Pen.
We've seen the stylus before as part of Samsung's Note smartphone lineup. But this is the first time the company has built it into a laptop.
It's a timely inclusion. Microsoft's rival Surface Pro comes complete with a stylus and was launched a little over a week ago. The company is also pushing hard on its Windows Ink platform.

Samsung's S Pen is compatible with Windows Ink and also offers Air Command, a quick access menu for drawing and editing that Note fans will recognise. The stylus is designed to get the most out of the convertible Notebook 9 Pro's 360-degree touchscreen display, meaning you'll be able to annotate and draw in laptop, tent, tablet or display mode.
Samsung also says the S Pen always stays on and will never require charging, kinda like those retro "pens" that your grandparents used to use.

Key features
360-degree touchscreen display (1,920x1080)
Built-in S Pen with 4,000 pressures levels
Windows 10 Home OS
Intel Core i7-7500U processor
13.3-inch model (8GB DDR4 RAM) and 15-inch model (16GB DDR4 RAM)
256GB SSD
Supports fast charging via USB-C port

Can you guess what Android O will be called?

Oreos. Oatmeal cookies. Orangina. Oranges. Ozark pudding. We've been ruminating over what it is that Google will officially call Android O, but we still don't know! Just like we didn't know that we'd be downloading Marshmallow or Nougat until the mobile operating system was raring to go.

What dessert do you think Android O will be named after? There are plenty of you who are surely convinced that Oreo is it.  The more I think about it, the more I realize Oreo's actually a pretty solid name, ignoring all other issues that arise.

We're dubious ourselves about that, though, considering the rampant availability of Oreo packets that were placed around the premises at Google I/O . The search company is known for effectively trolling attendees — it did the same in 2016 with bite-sized packets of Nutella — so the mere mention of such a dessert isn't a guarantee that it's the name.

A Carbon Dioxide - CO2 Conversion Factory under Construction

Climeworks factory in Zurich, Switzerland

A Swiss company on May 31 is set to become the world's first to commercially remove carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere and turn it into a useful product.

Climeworks , which will begin operations at a facility near Zurich, Switzerland, plans to compress the CO2 it captures and use it as fertilizer to grow crops in greenhouses. The company wants to dramatically scale its technology over the next decade, and its long-term goal is to capture 1% of global annual carbon dioxide emissions by 2025.

Along with cutting fossil fuel use to zero, removing carbon dioxide from the air is increasingly seen as one way to stop the long-term buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Carbon removal and storage coupled with drawing down fossil fuel use is called "negative emissions."
