  • My phone charges from 0 to 100 in an hour and a half with USB C to C. And my phone’s charging speed is below average.

    Using USB A to C, it takes something like 4 or 5 hours. I usually charge my phone while watching TV or playing video games, so this is a big deal for my use case.

    My laptop, desktop, and server all have USB C.

    At this point, I’m throwing away all cables and charging bricks that use USB A. It just doesn’t provide enough power.



  • I use Google Maps, which has had this feature for years. I use it any time I am traveling. If I am going to another country, I may have no cell access at all. Or cell data may cost way more. But even if I am traveling with in the US, there is a chance that wherever I am going, I may not have a reliable connection. 95% of the time it’s fine, but that 5% of the time, when I stressed, out of my element, I don’t know where to go, and my phone has no cell signal, I wish so badly that at least I could use the fucking map at least so I could know where I need to go.

    I also have to use it for the town I live in since I moved here, because it’s rural and the cell access is spotty at best. At least that’s improving, though.
