Apple’s most recent event offered a couple of new accessories, particularly, the USB Type-C to Lightning adapter ($25) which can be used to charge an apple device using the Macbook’s only connection port, a single USB Type-C port.

I just had an extremely surreal moment

For a good while, I've been doing youtube, and making Minecraft maps (adventure and such), however I must admit, I am not a popular user. Like at all.
