It was a team effort. Cory did the heavy lifting, but it takes a village to overthrow a tyrant.

I was very conservative. My drift leftward started before the internet was enough of a thing to have video debate spaces, but online debate has given me a lot to think about and pushed me farther left. I credit George Carlin with some of my early movement. He's like an online debate, just against air.
The one I've used on my Samsung isn't as fast as a wired power bank, but I don't need to wrangle the cables like I do with the wired ones. I wouldn't use a magsafe power bank to charge my phone from 0 (too slow). But leaving it attached gives me an extra couple of hours with just a little extra weight. Useful for things like conventions or travel.
I use one in my car - it's more convienet for short trips or trips with multiple stops. I do keep a cable for longer trips though, especially if I need to keep the screen on for GPS - the wireless charger makes the phone warm enough to stop charging over the course of an hour or so.
To me, there's concentration and there's flow state. Concentration is more of a manual process where I intentionally ignore distracting events. It involves building a structure that can hold up to bumps and it's hard work. Flow state is a groove where distractions melt away and only the task remains. One can turn into the other, and and depending on how your brain works they can both be fragile.
My understanding is that Samsung uses an odd standard that means they can't quick charge from Anker devices. That was at least true a few years back. Would be great to know if that's changed.
