It's alive !
Just came back up, presumably everyone else's will, if not then take the power out, wait 10 seconds and plug it back in (Turn it off and on again)

Presumably with a keychain/lanyard slot (which should have been on the tag by default, Google making you pay for basic usage as usual)
For anyone who didn't know (is there anyone left?), Valve added an Easter Egg where your Steam Controller "screams" if you drop it. It's supposedly the "Wilhelm scream" (The one you are guaranteed to hear in most big blockbuster action movies), not sure how accurate that is though?
Apparently it's actually the vibration motor that does it.
Just got my Steam Controller yesterday and ordered this this morning, anyone have the same one and can confirm if it's as sturdy as they claim?

Does say it has a metal weight in the bottom so hopefully it's not gonna be junk, pretty pricey for what it is too.

>If you have a foldable phone, Octopi Launcher will be of particular interest because it seamlessly switches layouts between single- and double-display modes. You can also set different layouts for different screens, so if your foldable also includes a smaller back-of-phone display, you can customize that as well.
>
>Since I don't have a foldable phone, I wasn't able to test this feature. I did, however, test Octopi Launcher on a tablet and found it to be just as awesome on the larger screen.

>Octopi also has different actions for different gestures, such as:
>
>Swipe up with one finger to access the App Drawer.
>Swipe down with one finger to access the Notification Shade.
>Swipe down with two fingers to search.
>Double-tap to turn off the screen.
>Long-press to access Octopi Launcher settings.
Tried it out, it's nice but I'll need to mess with it some more to see if it will replace my Nova Launcher, there's a free and "Pro" version for either $1.99 or $2.99, one thing that concerned me is, when you launch it, there's a little blurb to say the author worked on it during a "year off" although it has had updates just last month.
You can have a vertical or horizontal app drawer and it has a nice search at the bottom, widget handling seems decent and you can enforce rounded corners.
Do like the dock which is pretty tablet friendly, looking somewhat like a taskbar but you can customise it's appearance if you just want icons, nice reflective effect.

WearOS 7 is out for Pixel Watch too, just if you've not checked that.
Just had to reset my watch (Pixel 4) because the phone app somehow forgot it even though it was still connected via bluetooth. Launched the app and it was waiting to add a watch, even when it's already connected.
>Just when I thought the upcoming Google Home Speaker would never see the light of day, a possible release date has surfaced — and it could be here in a matter of weeks.
>A product listing for the Google Home Speaker on the Best Buy Canada site points to a June 25 release date, so if you’ve been patiently waiting for the arrival of Google’s first smart speaker in six years, you could get your hands on it sooner than you think.
>
>Though this is exciting news for those who’ve been waiting to upgrade, it’s best to take this placeholder date with a pinch of salt before you get your hopes up. At the moment, there’s no mention of an official release date on the Best Buy US page, and Google Store also hasn’t been updated either.
>
>As far as pricing goes, we have more information on how much the Google Home Speaker will cost depending on region. It’s listed for $99.99 / £99.99 on the Google Store, and CA$139.99 on Best Buy Canada. When it comes to color options, the speaker will be available in four different shades in the US (Berry, Jade, Hazel, and Porcelain), while the UK and Canada will only have two (Hazel and Porcelain).
Over a month for that charger, from order to delivery, is wild
That's on my Pixel 10 Pro XL, checking for update has done nothing since that build
I picked Fern but she speaks really quickly, she ends up sounding like she's pissed off with you. I'm sure one of the male voices was also playing really quickly.
