                        What happened to Android's dessert names for their OS? Ran out of ideas for O? Can't use "Oreo" for legal purposes? "Orange" another brand name issue? "Oatmeal" too bland? I'm deeply saddened and bothered by this inconsistency.

                                    I believe OS development has reached its limits liking ago. Whatever updates are being brought are just minor. Nothing major left to disvover.
