Am I missing something? I only see the AI overview as an option after clicking the "try new features" lab logo. Are some versions of Google search forcing this feature currently?

Sure, any sources should be checked. That said, do you have any particular reason to doubt the figure?

Is making art with the rain an option?

Sand darkens when wet so that could make a cool canvas, theoretically.

You could also play with that "wall of rain" effect you sometimes see when you are just outside of a heavy rain area.

Lots of people call themselves moderates but consistently vote Democrat or Republican and just differ from their party on a couple issues.
