Gonna need a source on this. The US has trouble solving simple murders when people are present, let alone some sci-fi stuff you’re talking about.

Ha! Hilarious you said that. I was planning on purchasing their display until I learned it’d take a decent effort to use it with my work laptop (windows). So, part way there?

ChromeOS, Android, Windows, and Linux have almost all features I mentioned. But, I understand some don’t care.

You’re still wearing the rose-tinted glasses. MacOS is not able to (natively): 1. Allow the trackpad to scroll “natively” and a mouse to “normal” scroll. 2. Scale for an external display without a specific PPI. The PPI is so high there’s only a couple monitors that support it on the market. 3. Display crisp text on a non-high-PPI screen (as above). 4. Allow the user to edit or remove the horrendous mouse acceleration curve. 5. Allow users to select minimized windows with Alt+Tab. 6. Allow users to snap windows. 7. Etc etc.
I’m stunned I can’t scale stuff on my 4k monitor, adjust the mouse, or be productive with alt-tab.
Gorgeous hardware, but wow, I’m stunned you guys (and girls) can use this seriously.
