Remember the Google Jamboard?
That $5,000 digital whiteboard that Google killed off last year?
Three LineageOS developers have brought it back to life! Instead of throwing it out, you can turn it into a cartoonishly large Android tablet or run Android TV on it.

RIP: Google has confirmed that it isn't currently working on a new tablet until it "figures out a meaningful future for the category."
The company also confirmed it isn't developing a smart ring, either.

A year later, the ‘criminal investigation’ against me is still struggling to find anything that I or Telegram did wrong. Our moderation practices align with industry standards, and Telegram has always responded to every legally binding request from France.
Ironically, I was arrested due to the French police’s own mistake: before August 2024, they ignored French and EU laws and hadn’t sent any of their queries to Telegram via the required legal process. They could have learned the correct procedure simply by googling it or asking.
One year after this strange arrest, I still have to return to France every 14 days, with no appeal date in sight. Sadly, the only outcome of my arrest so far has been massive damage to France’s image as a free country.

🎧Android will soon let you decide if your Pixel can lower your loud headphone volume
To abide by regulatory requirements, Google in Android 14 QPR1 added a "sound exposure notifications" feature that not only warns you about prolonged exposure to loud audio but can automatically lower your headphone's volume to protect your hearing.
Currently, there's no way to control this feature - even in regions where it's not mandated by regulation. But Google is preparing a new 'Hearing Wellness' menu that will let you control this.
