5 of the best Pixel 10 chargers you should buy instead of Google’s 67W brick

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-01 03:00:19

Google has a new charger for the Pixel 10 series, offering 67W of peak power spread across two USB-C ports. As an official product, this is the safe bet for guaranteed fast charging, but it’s also more power than you might need, and it’s not exactly the most affordable plug on the market either. Likewise, perhaps you’re after just a single-port plug or maybe want something that can power your laptop and tablet as well as your new Pixel?

gizmodo.com Riley Gutiérrez Mcdermid 2025-11-03 20:25:17

With the Powerball ballooning to $650 million after Wednesday’s drawing, hopeful players have been asking: Is winning the lottery a matter of luck or something that science and artificial intelligence can predict?

Their experimental approach resulted in a €43,000 jackpot in April, which now has people wondering if

Scientists Say They've Figured Out a Way to Turn Nuclear Waste Into a Powerful Fuel

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-05 20:07:16

Scientists say they've developed a way to salvage nuclear waste from fission reactors — and turn it into a potent fuel for fusion reactors instead. As Gizmodo reports, it's an exciting prospect that could give fusion — which has remained elusive despite decades of research, though many scientists believe it could mature into a viable grid-scale power source — a chance of one day becoming a viable source of clean and safe energy.
