Samsung has announced a new app called Linux on Galaxy that works with its DeX docking station to bring a full Linux desktop experience to Galaxy Note8, Galaxy S8 and S8+ smartphone users.

Comments from IDC sounded skeptical saying the concept is "interesting at best", but "the No. 1 challenge is that there is no public infrastructure for where you can dock your phone, other than in your home or office... Where you really would like to have that is at a hotel, at an airport, etc."

Samsung is touting their DeX environment as "supremely better than all the earlier attempts to have a smartphone docking into a big screen".

    Maybe anchovies and pineapples don't mix too well but since you brought it up my brain screams
    smashed mackerel in tomato with cheese and pineapple pizza.
    The flavors would both compete and cooperate.

    If no Italian already does it then now they can!

    The answer to "red or white wine?" would be grappa directly from the bottle.

    P.s. what about curry pizza?
