Robotaxi rules have entered their first global phase. A UN vehicle standards forum has adopted the first international framework for fully autonomous vehicles, giving driverless fleets a common safety baseline across major markets.

Prime Day is a great time to upgrade your charging setup, especially if you are still using old power bricks, slow adapters, or separate chargers for every device. This year’s deals include compact GaN chargers, high-power laptop bricks, desk-friendly charging stations, and foldable stands for phones, earbuds, and wearables.

Anker Prime Charger 100W If you want one compact charger for most of your daily devices, the Anker Prime 100W is…
