Next-gen Google Assistant is now rolling out in Canada, four other countries

Aside from the Pixel feature drop, Google is rolling out the next-generation Assistant that debuted on the Pixel 4 outside of the US. Canada will be one of the five countries getting the update. The others are Australia, Ireland, Singapore, and the UK. Google has started rolling it out on December 12. But these rollouts happen in stages, so if it hasn't made its way to your Pixel 4, just be a bit patient.

Unfortunately, the new Google Assistant will only be available on the Pixel 4, and it'll only support the English language for now. This next-gen Assistant introduces improved response speed by moving the language processing to the device. The update also brings a new look to Assistant.

You must use a special Apple-provided cloth to wipe the Apple Pro Display XDR

Apple's new Pro Display XDR comes with an optional nano-texture glass that bumps up the price of the monitor by an extra $1,200 from an already jaw-dropping price of $6,299. The panel is etched at the nanometer level that helps cut down glare and reflectivity. But as we just learned, it needs to be cleaned with a special cloth. A dry polishing cloth provided by Apple should be the only thing you use to wipe the glass. Water or liquids shouldn't be used. 

According to an Apple support document, you mustn't use any other cloth for it. And if you lose it, you need to contact Apple Support for a replacement. It isn't clear how much the fabric will cost.
