Donkey Kong Bananza turns destruction into joy

Why yes, I would like to go ape shit.



The first Qi2.2 charger stand is $66.99.

Yesterday Ugreen dropped the first Qi2.2 power bank as the first certifications rolled out, and now Aukey has followed with a 2-in-1 charging stand dubbed the MagFusion 2X. You can preorder it today.

Both charging pads are Qi2.2, meaning each can deliver 25W speeds. Aukey claims an iPhone 16 Pro Max charges 25 minutes faster than on Qi2 — which suggests Apple’s latest phones are already compatible.

The image depicts a futuristic urban scene with a large, imposing robot-like structure towering over a bustling street. The robot, with a spherical head and multiple legs, dominates the background, suggesting advanced technology. The street is lined with buildings featuring red banners and signs, some with Asian characters, indicating a possible East Asian setting. The atmosphere is hazy, adding to the dystopian feel. In the foreground, a soldier in a full-body suit and helmet stands facing the robot, with a backpack and a red patch on the sleeve. The soldier's posture suggests a sense of duty or vigilance. The crowd of people in the background, some wearing helmets, adds to the scene's complexity. The overall color palette is muted, with greys, reds, and browns, enhancing the gritty, post-apocalyptic ambiance.
