Is your iPhone charging slower than it used to? This is the reason why

If you just purchased an iPhone 11, congratulations! For the first time in recent years, Apple beat out Samsung and Google in Consumer Reports' latest smartphone rankings — but not all is rosy in iPhone land.

Don’t take another sip of White Claw until you watch this

White Claw has risen from relative obscurity to the drink du jour at an incredible speed. What most people won’t tell you, however, is that White Claw is more than just spiked seltzer water. It’s actually more similar to another kind of liquor — and it’s not what you expect.

Aw, nuts: Thrifty squirrels almost destroy a car

When winter approaches, squirrels take their time to store food to last them the season. Usually, they’ll look for someplace warm — so what could be better than the engine of a car? In Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, a local couple experienced a strange burning smell coming from the SUV in their driveway. When they popped the hood, what they saw inside shocked them: More than 200 walnuts taken from the tree in their yard. Further inspection revealed that a family of squirrels had chewed their way in from the bottom and had stowed their precious nuts in the car along with some grass and leaves. Needless to say, the car turned out fine in the end but the squirrels lost their entire savings at the repair shop. Who’s the real villain here?

Squirrels are smarter than we give them credit for.
