Solar sun roofs for ICEs were a thing 20 years ago. Solar was able to ventilate your car on sunny days.

Not so sure if Google "still controls 90 of web search" and if this means what it meant three years ago. Many prompts could have been a web search. The metric of interest must evolve here.
The article states that the purpose of this is "lost to time". I can image that by now its function is equivalent to a "brown M&M clause".
I never used Spotify but I was an early Google Play user, now Youtube Music.
And I'm a big fan of underground 90s, 2000s gangster rap. Living over here in Europe we had to pirate most of it because the stores just didn't carry stuff like Dubee or Killa Tay.
So when I started streaming my old favorite rap tunes I noticed something very interesting. The Google Play copy of a Killa Tay album called Snake Eyes had the same abrupt encoding error as a copy I had downloaded from XDCC many years earlier.
It was basically evidence that Google Play were using the same pirated version I had acquired.
The early version of Google Play Music asked for your MP3s, so you could have them in the cloud for streaming. I guess they did this for a baseline of data and music and now I wonder if this was an elaborate hack to circumvent legal implications. Should have read the terms back then.
That would be an interesting story!
You can revert this if you unlock your bootloader:

(EDIT: Just to be clear, and which is also mentioned in that post: unlocking the bootloader will reset the device. If your device is already unlocked though, you will be able to keep the data.)
Of course, I would just advise to switch to LineageOS directly, since Google has stopped providing security updates for the Pixel 4a already in August 2023. I've run LineageOS for years on the Pixel 4a and it has worked pretty much perfectly for me:

Android 15 (LineageOS 22) was just released for it.
How is the photo quality? I love the pictures from the old 12MP sensor + Googles software, but I understand this is not in Lineage?

Is this a Nokia Watch or rather a Nokia Cuff?
Most sports would profit from a deeper understanding and application of statistical inference. Or even of descriptive statistics. The fun lays in the operationalization, a step most applications of AI will likely omit, since AI will work out the dimensions of the data by itself.
Boxing for example could calculate the amount of kinetic energy brought to the table and how much of it landed or was sidestepped. How much was absorbed? Not easy to do, but also not impossible.

I'm one of the developers who worked on this project. Happy to answer any questions.

Great work, it really captures the feeling of Marble Madness. Its maybe to deep of a thought, but I really fancy the spin of the marble, something that the original was not conveying as fancy as your version does.
So a SVG you authored 20 years ago for some browser will likely work everywhere today.
