This tiny power adapter features three ports: two USB-C and one USB-A. The USB-C ports are faster, each delivering up to 70W of charging, which will juice up your phone in under an hour and is even fast enough to power many laptops, including MacBooks. That's only when the USB-C ports are used on their own, though. When multiple are being used, the 70W total gets split up. (The USB-A maxes out at 33W, by the way.)
Apart from being able to charge three devices at once, what I love about this wall plug is that it's compact with foldable prongs. It fits easily into pockets and bags, and you can take it with you while traveling without worrying that it'll get damaged or scuff up anything else. And don't forget that it comes with a free USB-C cable that's capable of handling the fast charging power of this power block.
This is a must-have for anyone, so don't miss out on this deal. Get this Anker Nano USB-C charger block with cable for $34.99 before this discount expires! It's the best price we've ever seen for it.

The Andromeda galaxy lies just beyond (...OK, about 2.5 million light-years beyond) our galaxy, the Milky Way.

But today on the show, Regina and computational astrophysicist Arpit Arora explain why a recent paper out in the journal Nature Astronomy suggests this cosmic game of bumper cars may never come to a head at all.

A contact recently told me that Apple handles thousands of inquiries from people who have forgotten or misplaced their Apple ID logins every day. That's probably why Apple recently made it easier to access your Apple ID using any known email address.
But Apple reps are also inundated with requests related to third-party apps over which they have no control. As the EU looks to force Apple into allowing apps from alternative app stores onto its devices, a practice known as sideloading, the user experience with Apple devices — and the flood of inquiries and complaints — is about to get much, much worse.
