#ChromeOS
ChromeOS 101 is rolling out on the stable channel with few changes.
9To5Google

Changelog:
- Brand new dark boot screen featuring a white Chrome logo followed by “chromeOS.” Besides the night-friendly background change, note the lack of a space.
- Brand new Firmware Updates menu (in Settings > About Chrome OS). It replaces how accessory updates on Chromebooks previously occurred automatically in the background. That approach led to some issues, and this new UI is meant to address upgrades that take longer periods of time
- Linux Subsystem uses Debian 11 (bullseye) over Debian 10 (buster). You can upgrade it in settings
- Network-based recovery for restoring ChromeOS without a USB Image of it made from a different device
- The floating launcher is now seen for some users, if you don't have it use chrome://flags/#productivity-launcher flag to enable it

In the future you will be able to talk and give feedback of Google's LaMDA artificial intelligence in the 3 demos:

Imagine It: Name a place and LaMDA will offer paths to explore your imagination.

List It: Name a goal or topic and see how much LaMDA can break it down into multiple lists of subtasks.

Talk About It (Dogs Edition): Roll with the conversation and see where it goes. It’s just a fun, kinda-weird, open-ended chat.
