As I am not attending #FWA this year, I just build my own #Lego one for home! I tried to capture as many details of the Marriott Marquis as I could in that scale, from the entrance fountain and skybridges to bar and elevator shaft inside. 17.4cm/7in tall and almost 1400 bricks!

In the first Android 17 beta, there's a change to the search box in the Pixel Launcher. Some sites are reporting this as "similar to the Google widget" - but it acually *is* just the Google widget. The methods to revert back to the old search box (internally called "one" search) also don't work

Do you like taking unscientific personality tests? I have developed one that will definitely tell you something about yourself. Guaranteed free of malware! Extremely shareable results!! It’s free and online!!!! wuffs.org/quiz/

After months of development and testing, tonight I've released uTag, an Android app and mod for Samsung SmartThings which allows the use of Galaxy SmartTags on non-Samsung Android devices. No root, no Shizuku needed.

In Android 15 QPR2 and Android 16, Google quietly *finally* added support for RemoteViews in Smartspace. This has been a long time coming, and allows truly custom content in At a Glance. Well, now since it's there, it's also in Smartspacer - except, it's even better!
