obsessing over my cables. 00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:52.520 Uh I have all of my cables organized. 00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:55.320 I have colored uh tags around them. 00:00:55.140 --> 00:01:02.500 And I in the previous I had purchased uh not one but two little uh hardware devices that you can plug. 00:01:02.500 --> 00:01:02.740 Uh 00:01:03.140 --> 00:01:06.260 cables into and it gives you all kinds of information. 00:01:06.260 --> 00:01:10.340 Well that's garbage now because now you can do it with software. 00:01:10.340 --> 00:01:13.940 So there's this wonderful little Mac app called What Cable 00:01:15.140 --> 00:01:24.180 And it it basically apparently all this information mac OS already knows when you plug in your cable. 00:01:24.180 --> 00:01:24.900 It knows it. 00:01:24.900 --> 00:01:25.940 It knows it. 00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:33.440 So this app just presents that information to you in a very easy, concise way. 00:01:33.440 --> 00:01:34.080 It is a 00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:45.159 free app you can give them like 15 US American freedom dollars to get like a little bit more features and it like does like diagnostic of your video signal and all that wonderful stuff but 00:01:45.360 --> 00:01:48.079 The base functionality is just free. 00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:49.119 You can plug it in. 00:01:49.119 --> 00:01:52.560 You can see how fast your cables are, whether you're using the right one. 00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:53.840 It's a great app. 00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:55.759 I just want to let people know about it. 00:01:55.759 --> 00:01:57.759 It's at uh whatcable. 00:01:58.079 --> 00:02:00.159 uk, I believe. 00:01:59.700 --> 00:02:01.380 There's a link in the show notes. 00:02:01.380 --> 00:02:01.939 It's good. 00:02:01.939 --> 00:02:07.619 It's a nice, very simple app, but it does it does exactly what's on the tin. 00:02:08.740 --> 00:02:09.700 Huh. 00:02:10.340 --> 00:02:12.980 Now you're gonna give me shit about caring about my cables. 00:02:13.060 --> 00:02:14.980 No, no, no, no. 00:02:14.980 --> 00:02:17.540 I ha I have my kinks, you have yours. 00:02:17.540 --> 00:02:18.740 It's fine. 00:02:19.320 --> 00:02:27.000 So what have you done with this app that your your other devices that you purchased and built don't this doesn't This is nice because I don't have to 00:02:27.260 --> 00:02:30.380 to I don't have to I don't have to remember where I put my little hardware device. 00:02:30.380 --> 00:02:42.060 I can it's in fact you can just leave this running all the time and one of the things it will do, which I'm not letting it run all the time, but if you do, it'll let you know if you think your cable is g is damaged. 00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:49.880 Because it will look at what it's reporting versus what it's actually doing and give you a heads up to say, eh, something is wrong 00:02:50.900 --> 00:02:51.379 Yeah. 00:02:52.580 --> 00:02:54.420 But it's only for Mac though, huh? 00:02:54.420 --> 00:02:55.780 It is a Mac app, yes. 00:02:55.780 --> 00:02:58.980 So Windows users are pfft, but you know. 00:02:59.300 --> 00:03:01.459 It is a Mac, it is a Mac app. 00:03:03.020 --> 00:03:06.540 And uh oh now I hear now I hear Rocky. 00:03:06.540 --> 00:03:07.500 He is pissed. 00:03:08.700 --> 00:03:11.820 Oh that's I fucked that one right up. 00:03:11.820 --> 00:03:14.140 God damn it, it just came out of my mouth like nothing. 00:03:14.460 --> 00:03:15.180 I do the same thing. 00:03:15.180 --> 00:03:15.900 Don't worry about it. 00:03:16.540 --> 00:03:21.900 Uh it also shows like all of the devices I hook have hooked up to my Thunderbolt dock. 00:03:21.900 --> 00:03:22.620 It's good. 00:03:22.620 --> 00:03:23.420 It's good. 00:03:23.420 --> 00:03:24.060 Yeah. 00:03:24.460 --> 00:03:29.500 Apparently I have a slow USB device or charge-only cable connected somewhere. 00:03:29.980 --> 00:03:31.820 Oh, well you can't have that. 00:03:31.820 --> 00:03:32.220 No. 00:03:32.220 --> 00:03:34.060 Oh, it's the one connected to my microphone. 00:03:34.060 --> 00:03:35.580 That's why I haven't seen it before. 00:03:36.060 --> 00:03:36.780 There it is. 00:03:36.780 --> 00:03:37.260 Yeah. 00:03:37.260 --> 00:03:39.420 You don't plug in your microphone all the time? 00:03:39.420 --> 00:03:40.540 No, no. 00:03:40.540 --> 00:03:41.180 Oh. 00:03:41.180 --> 00:03:46.780 I I uh I I'm a little superstitious 00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:52.319 I plug my microphone directly into my Mac. 00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:53.599 No hub, no nothing. 00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:55.599 So nothing interferes with it. 00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:58.319 So most of the time it's just unplugged. 00:03:58.319 --> 00:03:58.640 So 00:03:59.940 --> 00:04:04.820 And I don't I don't use it for work for reasons I cannot explain, even though it's sitting right there the entire time. 00:04:04.820 --> 00:04:06.100 I just don't use it for work. 00:04:06.100 --> 00:04:08.660 So what do you what do you use for work? 00:04:08.660 --> 00:04:10.100 You like a headset? 00:04:10.020 --> 00:04:14.900 I just used the uh cam the microphone built into my webcam. 00:04:14.900 --> 00:04:15.780 Oh, okay. 00:04:15.780 --> 00:04:19.459 I wasn't sure if you did like AirPods or you don't do AirPods, that's right. 00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:19.400 No. 00:04:19.400 --> 00:04:20.120 No, no. 00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:26.680 I usually just leave whatever headphones I have on because a lot of times I'll just go directly from listening to music to talking to somebody. 00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:30.920 So I don't want to have to like take them off and put new ones in and be that guy. 00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:32.200 And plus also like 00:04:32.960 --> 00:04:41.440 Uh as a as a long hairman, sometimes your hair gets a little askew, and headphones are a great uh way to just keep your your head your hair back. 00:04:41.440 --> 00:04:43.280 So yeah. 00:04:43.280 --> 00:04:46.560 Oh well speaking of cables, I have 00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.520 I have like such an annoying thing happening. 00:04:50.520 --> 00:04:51.400 Uh-oh. 00:04:51.400 --> 00:04:55.880 This audio channel just randomly cuts out on my computer. 00:04:56.100 --> 00:04:57.140 Oh no. 00:04:57.140 --> 00:04:59.220 I I don't know if it's the cable. 00:04:59.220 --> 00:05:01.860 Because like if I jiggle the cable, it comes back. 00:05:01.860 --> 00:05:03.700 Oh, it's definitely the cable then. 00:05:03.700 --> 00:05:05.140 Yeah, you're out you have a little well 00:05:05.940 --> 00:05:10.980 I have I have this nice braided cable and one day it just started out of the blue. 00:05:10.980 --> 00:05:12.100 Hmm. 00:05:12.100 --> 00:05:14.260 So I don't know if it's 00:05:14.620 --> 00:05:17.819 my headphones, which were not cheap headphones. 00:05:17.819 --> 00:05:18.379 Yeah. 00:05:18.379 --> 00:05:19.900 I'm sure they're out of warranty by the way. 00:05:19.979 --> 00:05:22.060 Are those Sonys? 00:05:22.060 --> 00:05:22.699 Yeah. 00:05:22.699 --> 00:05:23.740 Yeah. 00:05:23.740 --> 00:05:24.220 Yeah. 00:05:24.220 --> 00:05:25.419 So something's going on. 00:05:25.419 --> 00:05:27.259 So I'm gonna have to order a um 00:05:28.580 --> 00:05:30.260 Time I had to order another cable.

I'll I 00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:37.879 And and I don't even have to move my head that much. 00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:45.159 Like I'll just be, you know, sitting here working or gaming or something and it just kinda starts to go and then I'll like tilt my head to the side, it comes back. 00:05:45.159 --> 00:05:46.599 Like I don't I don't know. 00:05:47.400 --> 00:05:48.919 Unreliable cables are the worst. 00:05:48.919 --> 00:05:49.319 Yeah. 00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:49.879 Yeah. 00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:50.680 No. 00:05:51.440 --> 00:05:53.520 Hopefully it's just the cable and not the headphones. 00:05:53.520 --> 00:05:55.840 So I'll get my fingers crossed for you. 00:05:55.840 --> 00:05:56.320 Hold on. 00:05:56.320 --> 00:06:00.479 I'm gonna ask my wife why my dog is going insane.

00:06:28.420 --> 00:06:34.820 And um Vito only barks at people that he can see from our windows. 00:06:34.820 --> 00:06:35.780 Okay. 00:06:35.780 --> 00:06:38.420 If you're in the house, you're his best friend. 00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:47.040 And he is just over a year old now, and he has not really grasped the concept that some jobs require zero dogs. 00:06:47.020 --> 00:06:47.340 Yeah. 00:06:47.340 --> 00:06:56.700 And these people are sanding and painting and using wood, um, you know, putting up new trim in my house, and he just wants he just wants to help. 00:06:56.960 --> 00:06:59.600 Um but he is not designed to help. 00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:01.199 And he has a real hard time with that. 00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:02.880 So he just wants to be with them all day. 00:07:02.880 --> 00:07:04.560 So I have to have him down in my office. 00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:09.360 And speaking of workers uh in the house, uh 00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:14.160 We had some people over pouring some concrete today. 00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:15.759 So Ooh. 00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:18.800 Oh, for your for is this uh rebuy me, this is your patio? 00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:20.320 Patio, yeah. 00:07:20.039 --> 00:07:23.159 But we only have we only have the stairs right now. 00:07:23.159 --> 00:07:30.440 He's gonna come tomorrow and pour the rest of the patio, but everything is like leveled and dug out and but the stairs look nice. 00:07:30.440 --> 00:07:31.159 So yeah. 00:07:31.159 --> 00:07:31.800 Okay. 00:07:32.020 --> 00:07:36.180 Did you have to do any a did you have to do any HOA somersaults for this? 00:07:36.180 --> 00:07:37.060 Oh yeah. 00:07:37.060 --> 00:07:37.620 Okay. 00:07:37.620 --> 00:07:40.100 My wife my wife took care of it. 00:07:39.940 --> 00:07:50.580 Uh the the highlight of it was us uh out in our backyard spray painting where the patio was roughly going to be because we did not do necessarily very straight lines. 00:07:50.580 --> 00:07:58.420 to get it the approval because oh that was that was actually for the county inspector he had to come out and he wanted to look to see where the patio was going to be 00:07:58.660 --> 00:08:00.420 Because a picture wouldn't do it apparently. 00:08:00.420 --> 00:08:01.060 I don't know. 00:08:01.060 --> 00:08:05.700 But yeah, we jumped through all the HOA hoops, got it the inspection all done. 00:08:05.700 --> 00:08:06.180 Yeah. 00:08:06.180 --> 00:08:09.300 So tomorrow, patio, concrete. 00:08:10.099 --> 00:08:13.060 How long do they how long do they say it was gonna cure for? 00:08:13.060 --> 00:08:21.699 Uh I think he said like give it twenty-four hours before you walk on it and give it like three days before you put anything on it. 00:08:21.560 --> 00:08:32.440 So Yeah, so we're we're in the process of getting approval for our driveway project because they um they re they finally redid the curbs and the gutters along our street. 00:08:32.520 --> 00:08:34.039 I was kind of waiting for that to happen. 00:08:34.039 --> 00:08:36.279 I did because I knew it was gonna happen this year. 00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:41.400 And they repaved our street and they repaved part of the road uh by my house. 00:08:41.400 --> 00:08:42.520 So that's all done now. 00:08:42.520 --> 00:08:47.640 So I submitted all my stuff to uh RHOA and paid the twenty dollar design fee. 00:08:47.640 --> 00:08:49.880 Um we'll see what comes back from that. 00:08:49.880 --> 00:09:00.920 I think ours was like a $70, but it was that was for the expedited one because we didn't like it was either like wait or pay twenty more dollars and we'll get it done in a week. 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:01.760 Yeah. 00:09:01.760 --> 00:09:04.800 Yeah, they say they say ours takes up to two weeks, so we'll see. 00:09:04.800 --> 00:09:06.320 I'm hoping I get an answer back. 00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:09.600 If I get a no, I'll just have to like amend it or something like that. 00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:14.399 So we didn't approve the first time through, so it was fine. 00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:14.800 Yeah. 00:09:14.800 --> 00:09:16.320 Yeah. 00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:17.200 Okay. 00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:19.840 Um we might need a

there was a new episode available, I would go watch. 00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:14.680 Yeah. 00:10:14.680 --> 00:10:18.520 I thought for sure there was going to be at least one more episode this season. 00:10:18.520 --> 00:10:18.760 Nope. 00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:19.160 Nope. 00:10:19.160 --> 00:10:19.560 It's over. 00:10:19.800 --> 00:10:20.600 Fuck. 00:10:20.700 --> 00:10:21.260 Off. 00:10:21.260 --> 00:10:22.060 Fuck off. 00:10:22.060 --> 00:10:24.940 And they haven't announced if there's gonna be another season, right? 00:10:24.940 --> 00:10:25.980 So that that could be it. 00:10:25.980 --> 00:10:33.260 That could be that her coming down from space in the same f field as everything else going on. 00:10:33.140 --> 00:10:36.180 And uh yeah, and yeah. 00:10:36.420 --> 00:10:38.020 The mm-hmm. 00:10:38.020 --> 00:10:39.060 Oh yeah. 00:10:39.060 --> 00:10:41.780 It was it was it was really doing well. 00:10:41.780 --> 00:10:44.260 It wit if it was it was a great show. 00:10:44.260 --> 00:10:47.860 I love the premise, I love the aesthetic. 00:10:47.440 --> 00:10:52.480 Um, we have no idea what happened with the with like the girl that escaped to the West. 00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:55.600 We don't, you know, we saw what happened when they went down to Venus. 00:10:55.600 --> 00:10:57.760 I don't know what they thought was gonna happen. 00:10:57.760 --> 00:10:58.080 Um 00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:00.880 And then bathosphere. 00:11:00.880 --> 00:11:01.280 Yeah. 00:11:01.280 --> 00:11:02.560 Didn't last too long. 00:11:02.560 --> 00:11:04.320 Didn't last too long. 00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:11.040 Um you know, and obviously he knew he could never go home, but I didn't think he was thinking he was just gonna get crushed on Venus. 00:11:10.740 --> 00:11:14.900 And then like a MiG-21, like here, here's my fucking autism. 00:11:14.900 --> 00:11:18.820 A MiG-21's gonna catch up and shoot a rocket. 00:11:19.020 --> 00:11:28.620 at a reorbit or re-entry fucking thing and shoot it out of the air and have it land in Finland or near Finland where they thought it was gonna land. 00:11:28.900 --> 00:11:33.220 Those last 20 minutes of that show, I was like ready to throw something at my TV. 00:11:33.220 --> 00:11:37.860 And then it ended and I was like, fuck off. 00:11:37.860 --> 00:11:41.460 You can't, you gotta get you gotta give me more than that before you end the series. 00:11:41.460 --> 00:11:44.580 Especially if you don't think you're ever gonna like do another series. 00:11:44.580 --> 00:11:44.900 Yeah. 00:11:44.900 --> 00:11:45.220 No. 00:11:45.540 --> 00:11:46.580 I'm so mad at it. 00:11:46.580 --> 00:11:50.820 It's like the first time I've been irrationally mad at a television show in a while. 00:11:50.820 --> 00:11:52.500 Yeah, the ending was not 00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:55.000 It it was not was not good. 00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:56.680 The ending was not good, period. 00:11:56.680 --> 00:12:07.080 And I thought it was good because they had the whole like figuring out who the spy was and uh you know, all the espionage of getting the wife out of the country and you know 00:12:08.280 --> 00:12:09.400 Yeah, no, I love that. 00:12:10.040 --> 00:12:10.440 Yeah. 00:12:10.440 --> 00:12:11.240 Yeah, it was good. 00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:14.200 Like the whole the whole like the spy part of it was really good. 00:12:14.200 --> 00:12:16.520 The space part was, I think, weaker. 00:12:16.520 --> 00:12:18.920 And that ending was just it was bad. 00:12:18.920 --> 00:12:19.960 It was it was bad. 00:12:19.960 --> 00:12:21.160 It was not a good 00:12:21.900 --> 00:12:22.780 It was not good. 00:12:22.780 --> 00:12:23.740 I should go look. 00:12:23.740 --> 00:12:28.220 I wonder what like the ratings are for like that episode versus the others. 00:12:28.220 --> 00:12:34.780 And like and the one episode where they like try to terminate the entire crew on the space station, I'm like, really 00:12:35.339 --> 00:12:42.540 Like she's a bitch, but like she's not gonna kill all the crew in that in that mission. 00:12:42.540 --> 00:12:46.779 I get the feeling that she would totally kill all the crew to save her own career. 00:12:46.560 --> 00:12:48.480 Like 'cause that's what she's worried about, right? 00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:56.000 Is like anything that happens Yeah, and then when they had the fire I was like, Okay, they're not dead. 00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:57.520 They're not dead, stop it. 00:12:57.520 --> 00:13:01.360 Like Yeah, the way that it cut out their and yeah. 00:13:00.660 --> 00:13:00.980 Yeah. 00:13:00.980 --> 00:13:02.100 You didn't have to do that. 00:13:03.060 --> 00:13:07.300 It was sp I really like the show to that last episode. 00:13:09.980 --> 00:13:11.660 They what did they keep saying, Drew? 00:13:11.660 --> 00:13:13.500 It was a nine-month journey. 00:13:13.500 --> 00:13:14.940 Nine month journey. 00:13:14.940 --> 00:13:18.140 And there was a female astronaut like she's gonna be pregnant. 00:13:22.660 --> 00:13:28.020 But the the amount of time they said nine month journey, I'm like, hmm Yeah. 00:13:28.020 --> 00:13:32.100 But and then you just happen to show back up while they're half the 00:13:32.520 --> 00:13:37.000 Other space station now and that's totally not a spy satellite. 00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:37.880 Wink. 00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:39.080 Wink. 00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:39.880 Yeah. 00:13:42.680 --> 00:13:44.840 I hope they do another series. 00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:47.160 Do you but have they confirmed another series? 00:13:47.160 --> 00:13:47.960 I don't think they have. 00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:48.840 I don't think they have. 00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:49.800 Yeah. 00:13:49.880 --> 00:13:50.360 Yeah. 00:13:50.360 --> 00:13:52.280 I have a funny feeling it's not gonna get 00:13:52.640 --> 00:13:55.600 Pick back up and just gonna have to deal with that shitty ending. 00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:57.440 I know let's see. 00:13:57.440 --> 00:14:02.240 Will Star City get a season two? 00:14:03.660 --> 00:14:15.500 Critically c no no no no no no has not but it did say critically acclaimed so meh except for that last episode god damn 00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:16.000 Yeah. 00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:16.639 So bad. 00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:17.360 It was it was bad. 00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:18.160 It was real bad. 00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:18.959 It was bad. 00:14:18.959 --> 00:14:19.839 It was bad. 00:14:19.839 --> 00:14:23.839 Alright, well I'm glad I'm I'm glad that my sentiment is shared 00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:27.720 So yeah, I'm I'm really, really disappointed in that show. 00:14:27.720 --> 00:14:30.840 Um I have started watching Widow's Bay. 00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:32.680 I haven't I haven't started watching that. 00:14:32.680 --> 00:14:33.080 Yeah. 00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:33.800 Is it good? 00:14:33.800 --> 00:14:34.840 You uh yes. 00:14:34.840 --> 00:14:35.480 Yes. 00:14:35.740 --> 00:14:37.340 Go go watch the first episode. 00:14:37.340 --> 00:14:39.100 It's it's pretty fucking good. 00:14:39.100 --> 00:14:40.060 Lucky fuck good. 00:14:40.060 --> 00:14:43.260 Uh which is another Apple TV is pretty good as well. 00:14:43.260 --> 00:14:44.060 It's got a 00:14:44.259 --> 00:14:45.940 I think you talked about that, didn't you? 00:14:45.940 --> 00:14:49.540 Uh no that that was no that was that was Margot Got Money Problems. 00:14:49.540 --> 00:14:53.300 This is this is Lucky just came out, there's like three episodes. 00:14:52.860 --> 00:14:55.420 It's got uh what's her face, Terra Joy. 00:14:55.660 --> 00:14:57.420 Yeah from Queen's Gambit. 00:14:57.660 --> 00:15:00.460 Yeah, she's incredible in in the show. 00:15:00.460 --> 00:15:03.500 Uh basically it's the whole it's 00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:09.880 So it's it's it's you know it's a it's a it's a spin on a heist movie. 00:15:09.880 --> 00:15:18.200 It's basically heist gone bad, and then she's trying to deal with the ramifications of of, you know 00:15:18.620 --> 00:15:20.060 Crime's gone bad. 00:15:20.060 --> 00:15:21.420 So yeah. 00:15:21.420 --> 00:15:22.220 Okay. 00:15:22.220 --> 00:15:23.019 Yep. 00:15:23.019 --> 00:15:24.220 Uh but it's good. 00:15:24.220 --> 00:15:25.899 Yeah, I've heard keep hearing about Widows Bay. 00:15:25.899 --> 00:15:26.540 I need to check 00:15:26.880 --> 00:15:27.600 Widow's Bay. 00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:28.800 Widow's Bay is good. 00:15:28.800 --> 00:15:36.560 Um, I have some friends that uh are watching it and they they finally got me to um to to commit to it. 00:15:36.680 --> 00:15:39.960 Um, okay, so glad we're on the same page about that. 00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:45.560 So I want to shift gears again and I want to talk about some recent purchases that I made. 00:15:45.839 --> 00:15:46.079 Okay. 00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:48.880 There's something about these that make me angry, Drew. 00:15:48.880 --> 00:15:49.279 Okay. 00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:49.680 Alright. 00:15:49.680 --> 00:15:50.480 Well I'm okay. 00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:51.839 Hold that thought. 00:15:51.839 --> 00:15:52.800 Okay. 00:15:53.120 --> 00:15:58.800 So um I ha because my travel has ramped up 00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:04.560 I have been looking for better chargers for my devices. 00:16:04.560 --> 00:16:10.800 So to level set everybody here, when I travel, there are four devices 00:16:11.160 --> 00:16:14.200 Uh technically five devices that I need to keep charged. 00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:14.680 Okay. 00:16:14.680 --> 00:16:15.320 Okay. 00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:17.400 The first one is my MacBook. 00:16:17.400 --> 00:16:20.360 So my work laptop has to remain charged. 00:16:20.860 --> 00:16:31.420 Traditionally, I have carried the um the big the big square adapter uh power power charger that comes with it with with mag safe. 00:16:31.640 --> 00:16:33.880 Or a USB-C cable, depending. 00:16:33.880 --> 00:16:34.280 Yeah. 00:16:34.280 --> 00:16:36.280 So that's usually in my bag. 00:16:36.280 --> 00:16:40.600 I then have my personal phone, which this is an iPhone 18. 00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:42.440 It's USB-C. 00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:44.920 Uh so that is another cable. 00:16:44.820 --> 00:16:50.100 My work phone is an iPhone 16, which is Lightning. 00:16:50.100 --> 00:16:56.500 My AirPods Max, which is what I wear on the plane, is Lightning. 00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:07.400 And then my AirPods Pro, which I use for conference calls and like if I'm in an Uber and need to listen to music or something, uh, those are also lightning. 00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:09.800 So I have five devices 00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:14.480 three different cables, technically two if I don't do the max safe. 00:17:14.640 --> 00:17:14.959 Okay. 00:17:14.959 --> 00:17:15.199 Yeah. 00:17:15.199 --> 00:17:16.000 Yeah. 00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:20.640 So uh what I have discovered is I 00:17:21.620 --> 00:17:24.180 Don't want to carry around a bunch of chargers. 00:17:24.180 --> 00:17:33.380 So in order to kind of keep my my weight down, I have taken the big mag safe charger out of my work bag. 00:17:33.419 --> 00:17:33.980 Yeah. 00:17:33.980 --> 00:17:45.020 Instead, I've been looking for other high wattage or decent wattage wall chargers that I can plug a USB-C cable in or a lightning cable into. 00:17:45.260 --> 00:17:46.140 Yeah. 00:17:46.140 --> 00:17:50.540 So I was at Micro Center the other day, which uh their remodel was almost done. 00:17:50.540 --> 00:17:57.260 Um I was really angry at Micro Center because it was like fucking impossible to find anything there, but their remodel was almost done. 00:17:57.480 --> 00:18:01.320 Um, and I went in there and was buying a couple other things. 00:18:01.320 --> 00:18:03.240 Um, and I was like, you know, I'm I'm here. 00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:04.440 I know they sell anchor stuff. 00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:07.880 I want to go see what anchor wall chargers they have. 00:18:08.100 --> 00:18:15.940 The only one they had that I liked was the first one on this list, which is the Anchor Nanocharger. 00:18:16.940 --> 00:18:24.700 Now this is a 45-watt smart display 180-degree foldable. 00:18:24.700 --> 00:18:25.420 Hold on, hold your 00:18:25.760 --> 00:18:26.960 They just hold on. 00:18:27.280 --> 00:18:29.440 So I'm gonna I need to find it. 00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:31.200 Uh I don't know where desk. 00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:33.039 It might be in my work bag. 00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:36.880 But it actually let me grab this while I'm thinking about it. 00:18:37.120 --> 00:18:42.400 So the nice thing about it is the plug on it has oh wow come on camera. 00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:45.920 The plug the plug on it has three positions. 00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:47.840 And if you scroll down on that page 00:18:48.220 --> 00:18:52.860 In one of the little info bubbles there you'll see that it's 180 degree foldable. 00:18:52.860 --> 00:18:57.180 So one of the common problems I run into is when I'm visiting people 00:18:57.640 --> 00:19:01.480 You have no idea what kind of plug situation you're gonna we're gonna run into. 00:19:01.480 --> 00:19:12.360 Increasingly what I'm finding is all of the plugs are either recessed into conference tables or behind some like metal door on the conference table. 00:19:11.820 --> 00:19:15.100 A lot of times my chargers won't fit in there. 00:19:15.100 --> 00:19:15.580 Too big. 00:19:15.580 --> 00:19:17.100 Either because they're too big. 00:19:17.100 --> 00:19:20.300 So having the having this where it's like 00:19:20.620 --> 00:19:25.660 The plug itself can either be fully retracted 90 degrees or 180 degrees. 00:19:25.660 --> 00:19:33.420 Gives me a little flexibility about how I plug it in in relation to where the port for the cable to come out of it is. 00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:39.480 The other nice thing about this is it also recognizes the devices that you're charging. 00:19:39.480 --> 00:19:48.360 So for example, if I plug it into an iPhone, it says iPhone 18 Pro and the percentage is reflected. 00:19:47.860 --> 00:19:52.500 on the charger uh you know versus just having to look at my phone to see the charge. 00:19:52.500 --> 00:19:55.620
