Reupping this story from a year ago. Your airplane seats still have USB-A plugs and will for years. If you own the “old” Mac keyboard or AirPods Max you’re stuck with Lightning unless you want to spend hundreds of dollars again, just for a common port. And then the amperage/wattage confusion.

The Llamasoft Collection brings 27 chaotic home computer hits to Evercade for the first time. Preorder now and prepare yourself for the Attack and Revenge of the Mutant Camels, humanity's epic conflict against the Droids, and the wrath of the dreaded Zzyaxian Empire! Plus lawnmowing.
