# Modern travel is weird 2024-05-18 Half of my backpack has clothes. The other half has filming gear and dongles. A bunch of them. Thank you, Apple. ![[vladcampos.com/_photos/2024-05-18-video-recording-lis.jpg|A laptop, a camera on a tripod, and other tech accessories are placed on a windowsill with Lisbon cityscape visible outside.|600]] At least, everything I travel with is #USB-C compatible, which means there is always a cable available to plug and charge anything. But not exactly everything. Guess what? All of those cables are useless for one device. I've been wirelessly charging my wife's #iPhone with my #Pixel because she forgot to bring the Lightning cable. Thank you, Apple. Again. ![[vladcampos.com/_photos/2024-05-18-pixel-charging-iphone.jpg|An iPhone is wirelessly charging on top of an Android Pixel, both placed on a reflective surface.|500]] ![[vladcampos.com/_embedded/After Post|After Post]]
