Old laptop charger (Innergie 60C), meet the new laptop charger (Baseus BS-E915). Still GaN, 5W higher max power output, but most importantly more outputs. Now I can truly travel with just one charger. Also dirt cheap: normally $60 on Aliexpress, I got it at half off on a pre-Christmas sale (currently going for about $40, looks like). QC3.0, USB-PD 3.0, and everything else I could want. And it's just barely bigger.
Makes me look forward to GaN really arriving all the more.
Just to follow up, I can confirm that this charger does phone fast charging from the 2nd USB-C port while also charging a laptop from the 1st USB-C. As an added bonus, apparently my Motorola One Zoom supports USB-PD fast charging - an unexpected bonus for an affordable phone. The charger is also back down to $29.99 with free shipping if anyone is interested.
This is not what I was talking about, to clarify - you will probably get 5V only when both 2nd USB-C port and the USB-A port is populated as indicated by the aliexpress listing linked. On the bottom there you see modes that the charger cycles through depending on which plugs are inserted.
Doesn't look like it. While I have no way of actually measuring the voltage going into my phone, it still says it's charging by "TurboPower" when connected to the 2nd USB-C port even when all three ports are in use. While that might be 5V3A, 9V2A sounds more likely to me (less overall strain on the charger that way, after all). I was just charging my laptop (C 1), phone (C 2) and headphones (A) at the same time, and the phone stayed happily in TurboPower mode the whole time. Charging was quick too, although that's a very unscientific measurement.
I finally bought a TV. My first one in almost 10 years 
. Previous one was a 32" 100Hz Trinitron CRT. It's been hard to choose as I find that TVs are ugly. Was hesitating between Samsung Frame and Samsung Serif products, as they do not look like TVs and got a great rebate on a QLED Serif (almost 50% off) ....

@Valantar Yes, it could be that yours is different, or it could be that your phone can utilize a 5V3A mode. I posted because I was disappointed since my phone (S9+) charges significantly slower on 5V (at 1.7A-2A) than on 9V (1.7A).
BTW you can pick up one of those USB power meter things quite cheap and sometimes they will show some interesting stuff. I had to get one myself to see how much of a difference a change of USB cable can make. I had some cables laying around that will charge the same phone at 0.4A and others that will go up to the 1.7A mode...

That is a sexy looking TV, hope the rest of your home lives up to itI finally bought a TV. My first one in almost 10 years
Also, I hope you keep that CRT, it sounds like an awesome gaming display!

Not yet, we are changing everything in our appartment, including floor.
Nope, it died 10 years ago. Bern TV-less since that time.
New wheels and tyres!
Also picked up a FT03 Mini in black but the blood sacrifice i made to the PC gods early Jan hasn't gone my way, so that build is delayed.
That is still one of the best looking ITX cases out there IMO. In fact one of the ones that really got me into SFF. That design has aged very well.

picked this up recently. Pi zero W. All in its running dual ethernet, 2.4GHz wifi & bt 4/BLE
Things for my AMD PC. Thankfully the obscene gamer branding on the M.2 heatsink is a sticker and was removed (Asus B450-I). ?
Black L9a. I obviously shortened the fan wires, but I also took off the tube sleeving because it's stiff and kinks everywhere.
I'm a bit ashamed of the case it's in, so here's a screengrab of my 3960X running slime rancher ,_,
Sounds like a perfect use case for a CPU like thatI'm a bit ashamed of the case it's in, so here's a screengrab of my 3960X running slime rancher ,_,

Wow, that's really cute!
Links to the shields you use?
(I could ask in the discord but I'm too lazy)
So clean! What CPU are you going with?Black L9a. I obviously shortened the fan wires, but I also took off the tube sleeving because it's stiff and kinks everywhere.
