This year’s Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro smartphones are the first to ship with Google’s Tensor GS101 processor (which is the same chip that the company is expected to use in the upcoming Pixel 6a). But according to YouTuber Marques Brownlee makes the claim that Google had planned to use the chip in last year’s Pixel 5 and only scrapped plans due to the global supply chain problems affecting the tech industry.
While I suspect Google has certainly been planning to develop custom chips with an emphasis on hardware-accelerated AI capabilities for years, there’s plenty of evidence that the Pixel 5 was never going to ship with anything but the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765 processor… although the point is kind of moot now that the Pixel 6 is here and the Pixel 5 has been discontinued (although the Pixel 5a is still available for purchase).
Here’s a roundup of recent tech news from around the web.
There’s a rumor that Google wanted to ship the Pixel 5 with a Tensor chip instead of Snapdragon 765, but switched plans at the last minute due to supply chain issues. That seems… unlikely, since Google was testing the a Pixel 5 with SD765 in mid-2019.
Microsoft has released Windows 11 Enterprise virtual machine images for VMWare, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and Parallels. Aimed at developers, the 20GB download includes Windows 11 Enterprise, the Win10 SDK, Visual Studio 2019, WSL with Ubuntu, and more.
Developer Simone Franco explains why WSATools (a free app for sideloading Android apps on Windows Subsystem for Android) was temporarily removed from the MS Store – because the way it was submitted and the use of WSA in the name.
Sipeed began showing of demo of a device with a XuanTie C910 RISC-V processor and a touchscreen display running Android 10 recently, with the promise that a RISC-V phone could be coming as soon as 2022.

A key selling point for the PinePhone is that the $150 phone is one of the few smartphones designed to support free and open source operating systems that use a mainline Linux kernel. But that doesn’t mean it can’t run Android.
Developers of GloDroid have been building Android ROMs for the phone for the past two years, and this week the team released GloDroid v.0.7.0 which brings Android 12 to the PinePhone and other supported devices. Just keep in mind that this is pre-release software and “almost nothing works yet” on the PinePhone.
A recent demo video for GloDroid 0.7.0 shows that the basic operating system does run on the PinePhone. The Android 12 lock screen, home screen, app launcher, and settings menus are all functional. Just don’t expect fancy features like sound to work.
Still, while the PinePhone stands out in the modern smartphone space largely thanks to its mainline Linux support, it’s an unlocked, hackable device that can support a wide range of operating systems, even including Android.
GloDroid is based on Android Open Source Project code, and in addition to the PinePhone, the operating system supports Pine64’s PineTab tablet as well as single-board computers including the Raspberry Pi 4 and OrangePi PC Plus.
If you want to take the software for a spin, you can find the latest release at GitHub.

Around the year 1603, Italian shoemaker and amateur alchemist Vincenzo Casciarolo tried smelting some especially dense stone he had found on the slopes of Mount Paderno, near Bologna. No gold, silver, or other precious metals resulted as he had hoped. But after the stone had cooled, Casciarolo discovered something interesting: if he exposed the material to sunlight and then took it into a dark room, the stone would glow.
That "Bologna Stone" was the first artificially prepared, persistently luminescent substance. Many more were to follow—and today, persistent luminescent materials are used for decorations, emergency lighting, pavement markings, and medical imaging.
Someday they might give us glowing cities that stay cooler and use less electricity.
