Race Johnson showcased app icons with a disco ball effect, termed “discomorphism,” which caught the attention of Android President Sameer Samat. He announced the availability of disco icons for Pixel phones, confirming they are real and ready for download. A recent poll showed mixed opinions on the disco icon pack, with 53% voting it "hot" and 47% "not." To download the disco icons, a Pixel device must be running Android 16 QPR3, which began rolling out in March and is compatible with Pixel models starting from the Pixel 6 series.

Rust 2 Steam page appears, Facepunch immediately starts messing with fans about whether it’s legit: ‘Now you’re all questioning yourselves, is this real? Maybe?’

Garry Newman, the founder of Facepunch Studios, confirmed that there will be no sequel to Rust, stating "Nope" when asked about Rust 2. He expressed confusion over a rumored Steam page for the sequel, saying, "I have no idea at all." Rust was fully released on Steam eight years ago and has been a significant title since its early access launch in 2013. A Reddit post about Rust 2 sparked discussions among fans, but SteamDB flagged the app as suspicious, warning users it might be malicious. Facepunch's COO, Alistair McFarlane, commented cryptically, "You saw nothing," which added to the speculation. He later acknowledged the confusion caused by the post, indicating a playful interaction with the community. Newman previously mentioned that a sequel "definitely won't be a Unity game," leaving some room for speculation about future developments in the Rust franchise.
