Enabling Cat Controls in Android 14

This might have been discovered before, but I couldn't find any posts on it. So, I'll document it here.

The Android Easter Egg app has an activity called `ComponentActivationActivity`. It handles the activation of:

* Cat Controls Service
* Paint Chips Widget (iirc was an Android 12 thing)
* Paint Chips Activity (launched through the widget)

It checks the value of a setting called [`egg_mode_s`](https://cs.android.com/android/platform/superproject/+/android14-qpr3-release:frameworks/base/packa...

Chrome Stable finally added an option to move the address bar to the bottom of the screen

Just noticed today that my address bar is moved below. Google please don't remove this feature in 4 months.

If you don't seem to see an option for bottom bar in the Chrome settings, go to chrome://flags and look for the bottom bar option. Enable it, restart chrome, and you should see the Address Bar setting and then you should be able to move it to the bottom....
