Wait, how is ride-sharing / cabs a dying industry? People are always going to need to get from point A to point B, and if anything, the younger generations are less likely to own cars. Public infrastructure is never going to fill the g

That may be, but it still has no real relevance to this article unless people just want any excuse to get on their soapbox to rant about Adobe/PDF without even bothering to read the article and what it is talking about.

Is everyone in such a rush to comment that they don't even bother to RTFA? A majority of the comments here are knee-jerk reactions to a headline that was misunderstood...smh. Liquid mode is simply a tool to make it easier to consume PD

I really don't see why it should be an independent application. I mean it's not like we expect a PNG viewer or HTML5 video viewer to be a separate application in a browser. Being able to view (and in this case fill/interact w

How in the world do you not see competing app stores not providing value to consumers from a price competition perspective? It's not like every game on every platform on Windows is a platform exclusive. I've availed of exceptional

Erm... that's because that's always been baked into the price of software/apps on the app store since inception. Not sure how higher prices for consumer is great for the consumer. I get the convenience argument, but not every

You might want to check your browser/machine for something hijacking and inserting ads. The only ad I see is in the top-left and it is very non-intrusive and doesn't distract from the content at all.

That doesn't sound right at all. DSLRs like my Canon do indeed have a larger dynamic range but they are still nowhere near being close to the dynamic range the human eye can capture. Moreover, the native image rendered by DSLRs still h
