Looks like they’re moving to USB-C for AirPods too. At least my couple years old AirPods Pro can use the watch charger so I’m down to 2 cables. (Plus a mini USB for hearing aids)

Except Ulta does that “ you must give me your email address or you can’t return your purchase. Also your cat will pee in your shoes, your toast will land jelly side down and your internet will cut out just as he’s about to kiss her the first time. Are you sure you don’t want to?”

The airline is already sending notices about my options if my flights are disrupted or cancelled. Both airports I’ll be flying into are listed as potentially affected.
