Nintendo Switch charging Macbook’s?!

/in , /by

Turns out new Macbook/Pro’s can charge your Nintendo Switch and vice versa – with some tweaking.

Now don’t worry don’t have to go editing code or taking apart your shiny new pieces of tech.

As both systems use USB-C to charge you can plug a Nintendo Switch into the Macbook Pro and, if the system is on, it will charge the Macbook Pro, but, if the system is off the Macbook Pro will charge the Switch. All you need is a USB-C to USB-C cable!

Can even use a wall charger for a MacBook/Pro to charge to switch, extra power should, theoretically charge the console faster.

Space X Space Travel

/in , /by

SpaceX has announced that 2 people (Who will remain unnamed) have paid to be flown around the moon. Planned for late 2018 Elon Musk states:

“This presents an opportunity for humans to return to deep space for the first time in 45 years,” he said.

While they have paid the money to go aboard the Space X rockets they still have to undergo health and fitness tests as well as training before they can go into space but it will not include a lunar landing but a lunar skimming.

He also said the first passengers “are entering this with their eyes open, knowing that there is some risk here”.

“They’re certainly not naive, and we’ll do everything we can to minimise that risk, but it’s not zero.”

Dopamine highs!

/in /by

There’s a reason as to why we always want to check our phones!

Sharon Begley, author of ‘Can’t Just Stop: An Investigation of Compulsions’, thinks we a hit of dopamine (it’s what makes you feel good when listening to your favourite music) when checking our phones. It’s not about the texts we receive or the likes on a Facebook post – it’s the anticipation, we’re secretly hoping to see something that will give us a pleasure boost.

Which is why so many of us are seemingly addicted.

Begley recommends simply to check all your emails and texts at the end of the day rather than throughout.
