Surprise, surprise! The Rabbit R1 runs Android under-the-hood, and its entire interface is powered by an Android app.
I managed to get that app up and running on a Pixel 6a.

Indian Government To Ban Wi-Fi 6E Routers in India
ET
The Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) has urged the government to ban the sale of wifi 6E routers that utilize the 6 GHz spectrum band for data transmission, as the government has NOT yet decided on the use of these frequencies.
COAI, representing major telecom players like Reliance Jio, Airtel, and Vodafone Idea, alleges that these routers are being sold illegally through online platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, and Moglix, as well as offline traders.
Acc to COAI, the sale of equipment for 6 GHz band utilization, which has not yet been assigned for this purpose or has not been declared as license-exempt by the government is illegal and such sale would only result in unauthorized transmissions in our country, thus it should be banned immediately in the country.

OpenAI may launch search engine to take on Google
Popular tipster Jimmy Apples on X platform has claimed that OpenAI is expected to host an event on May 9, a week ahead of Google's annual I/O event (May 14).
In a recent podcast with Lex Fridman, Altman emphasized OpenAI's desire to avoid simply replicating Google Search. "I find the current model boring. The question shouldn't be about building a 'better' Google Search. It's about fundamentally improving information discovery, utilization, and synthesis," he explained.
It is widely reported that OpenAI is said to have used some of Microsoft Bing's resources to build its search engine.
This could also render Perplexity AI obsolete.

After being inactive for 3 years, Neofetch is now archived!
The owner archived the GitHub repository on Apr 26, 2024 and is now read-only, which means that the development for Neofetch has ceased. However, the development seemed to stall a few years back, as the pull requests and issues were ignored, and there were no new commits since 2020.
Here are some alternatives to Neofetch:
• hyfetch - Actively maintained Neofetch fork
• Fastfetch - Like Neofetch, but written in C
• screenFetch - Bash Screenshot Information Tool
