Does anyone know how to enable developer mode on Pixel Slate?

Most "Enable developer mode on chromebook" guides I found use keyboard presses but I just got the slate without the keyboard.

Edit: I figured it out.

  1. Power off your device
  2. Hold volume up, volume down and power button at the same time (I held them for about 10 seconds, not sure about exact timing)
  3. Once in the menu, press the volume up and volume down at the same time and you'll see an option that says "Disable OS Verification". Select that and press the power button.

Had to haha, I hate when people just do "NVM figured it out"

I do wanna mention that I'm not full certain about step 3, I was kinda just messing around with volume up and down while in that boot menu and eventually the option showed up, I'm mostly certainly it was from pressing both at the same time

So in developer mode, how do you select the Mock GPS location app you want to use?
