I’m preparing for the wire free world. Rumors are that Apple has plans to eliminate the lightning port on the iPhone. I think it’s just a matter of time, and the wireless charging world has a bit of catching up to do - but just like headphones, it will happen and we’ll be happier as a result.

You don't have to spend a fortune on sheets (but you can) and for a long time now (15 years I guess) I have enjoyed what I consider a good investment in sleeping.
I replace my sheets about every 5 years. I have two sets and we alternate between them each week.
