With Android tablets being… Android tablets, Chromebooks are quickly being adapted to fill the void. On supported devices, they combine the utility of Android apps with the flexibility of an adaptive (and productive) form-factor. The latest tweak, presenting Android-style Settings and Shortcuts apps in the launcher, further affirms the role Google’s Chrome OS is set to assume.
It’s no secret, we’re of the opinion that Chrome OS devices are set to displace Android tablets, and app-centric changes like these seem to imply that Google feels the same way.

Flickr has been purchased by photo-sharing service SmugMug.
According to a new report from USA Today, Flickr has been purchased by photo-sharing service SmugMug. The company says it plans to “[breath] new life” into Flickr by pouring in the necessary resources and focus.
For what it’s worth, SmugMug CEO Don MacAskill sure seems bullish about the service:
Flickr is an amazing community, full of some of the world’s most passionate photographers. It’s a fantastic product and a beloved brand, supplying tens of billions of photos to hundreds of millions of people around the world. Flickr has survived through thick-and-thin and is core to the entire fabric of the Internet.”
It’s unclear just how much money SmugMug spent on this 14-year-old piece of the entire fabric of the internet, but it has already launched a landing page for SmugMug + Flickr.
SmugMug, which has been around longer than Flickr, says the two platforms represent “the world’s most influential photographer-centric c…

At Mobile World Congress, LG announced a new version of the V30 called the V30S ThinQ, but it wasn’t actually new. There were no hardware changes to enable the AI camera features (just more storage and RAM), so there was nothing stopping LG from rolling them out in an update. It did so in Korea last month, and now the same re-branding is coming to Verizon in the latest update.
Verizon LG V30 update adds AI camera and ThinQ branding was written by the awesome team at Android Police.

Google’s software Assistant and corresponding Home hardware are there to answer your questions (within certain limits), but it may not always be Google that answers. In some circumstances, including things like service outages, it looks like Google is…
The 23andMe at-home Ancestry DNA test is down to $69 on Amazon. It normally sells for $99, but 23andMe is currently taking 30% off for a limited time.
You can also get the equivalent AncestryDNA testing kit for $59 if you buy from them directly. That’s a better price but it’s not on Amazon this low (yet).
Another option is to upgrade to the 23andMe Health + Ancestry personal genetic service for $139. That’s down from a price around $199 and just $10 above its lowest price ever.
The first kit is strictly DNA testing. It’ll tell you all about your family’s history, your ethnic background, and maybe reveal some interesting facts about yourself you never knew. You’ll also be able to connect with relatives based on your DNA from all around the world. If you want to, you’ll be able to upgrade to the health screening later but it will cost extra. The second, more expensive option is the one that adds health screening. It will tell you everything your DNA tells them about your health, your…
