When I found out that Apple's new iPhone 16e doesn't support MagSafe accessories (despite having wireless charging), it was an unpleasant surprise. I rely on at least three different versions of the magnetic chargers daily (including a MagSafe Wallet), and losing access to those would be a bummer.
More broadly, the decision didn't make much sense to me. Apple may be cutting costs by omitting MagSafe on the iPhone 16e, as well as differentiating it from the more powerful phones in its lineup, but it's sure to lose potential profit on MagSafe accessories.
SEE ALSO: Apple iPhone 16e is the new affordable Apple phoneRegardless of Apple's reasoning for this decision, the solution seemed simple: Just get a MagSafe case. However, typically for Apple, the company went all the way with omitting MagSafe on the iPhone 16e, because even the official cases for the device do not support it.
Fortunately, third-party companies have already started to fill this gap. Spigen, for example, has launched a pretty extensive lineup of iPhone 16e cases, some of which support MagSafe. A company called Mous also sells a couple of iPhone 16e cases with MagSafe.
Mous says it has MagSafe cases for the iPhone 16e, though they're all still labeled as "coming soon." Credit: MousI cannot be completely certain that a third-party case with MagSafe will always work exactly the same as having MagSafe on the phone. But given that MagSafe is essentially a Qi wireless charger paired with magnets to automatically align with MagSafe chargers, and the iPhone 16e does support Qi wireless charging, it should work fine with MagSafe-compatible chargers. Some features, such as Find My for MagSafe Wallets, probably won't work (I will put this to the test once I get an iPhone 16e review unit).
Still, if you're keen on getting the iPhone 16e, and you want to use MagSafe accessories, a third-party case is probably your best bet.

When a TV show aims to speak to a political moment, it helps for it to face our reality head-on. Zero Day tries for the former but fails at the latter, making for an extremely frustrating political thriller.
The limited series marks Robert De Niro's first leading role on TV. He also executive produces. Zero Day also boasts other big names like Angela Bassett, Lizzy Caplan, and Jesse Plemons, as well as creators Eric Newman (The Watcher, Narcos) and Noah Oppenheim (Jackie, NBC News). While this crew lends gravitas to Zero Day, the show can't escape the feeling that it's out of sync with the political climate it's trying to critique.
SEE ALSO: 2025 TV preview: All the TV shows you need to know, and where to stream them What's Zero Day about? Robert De Niro in "Zero Day." Credit: Courtesy of NetflixZero Day drops us into a United States in crisis. A nationwide cyberattack has caused a minute-long power outage that compromised transportation and communications systems, as well as the power grid. Thousands are dead, and the entire country is on edge, especially since the attack ended with an ominous message to every U.S. citizen: "This will happen again." Now, sitting President Evelyn Mitchell (Bassett, woefully underused) is on the hunt to find out who caused the attack and how to prevent it.
Enter former President George Mullen (De Niro). A popular president who won bipartisan support, Mullen would have been a shoo-in for a second term had he not resigned to grieve the death of his son. As Mitchell sees it, Mullen's popularity makes him the ideal candidate to run the Zero Day commission, which will have great powers of surveillance and search and seizure. The commission could be an affront to civil liberties, which is partly why Mullen takes the job — to stop someone more likely to abuse it from getting there first.
SEE ALSO: 'The White Lotus' Season 3 review: Juicy drama, great performances, still underwhelmingNow racing against time, it's up to Mullen to root out the source of the attack. While many believe the culprit to be Russia, Mullen has reason to suspect the attack came from closer to home. He'll have to wade through misinformation, conspiracy theories, and power-hungry tech moguls and hedge fund managers in order to find the truth. As if that weren't enough, he'll face opposition from his own daughter, Congresswoman Alexandra Mullen (Caplan), as well as claims that he isn't sound enough of mind to do this job. (Surreal sequences featuring the repeated use of the Sex Pistols' "Who Killed Bambi?" certainly seem to support that claim.)
All these element make for a compelling enough thriller, especially some late-season twists. But for a show that deals with American division, misinformation, and conspiracy theories, Zero Day doesn't interrogate the reasons why these problems are so prevalent now, or why they're so intrinsically linked to the government.
Zero Day is frustratingly vague about American politics. Robert De Niro and Angela Bassett in "Zero Day." Credit: Courtesy of NetflixDespite its platitudes about bipartisanship and "reaching across the aisle," Zero Day doesn't actually assign its characters political parties. Where does Mullen fall on the political spectrum? How about President Mitchell, or Speaker of the House Richard Dreyer (Matthew Modine)? We sense opposition and tension between them, and while we can make some educated guesses as to their affiliation, Zero Day never lets us know for sure.
The choice is intentional. Plemons, who plays Mullen's aide Roger Carlson, told The Times, "When you do get into the specifics of a political party, it gives you an out immediately as a viewer to either say, 'I'm for this person' or 'I'm against them.' Something disengages as you're watching."
Yet knowing party affiliations — as we do in other highly political shows like The West Wing and House of Cards — gives you vital context about where a character may stand on certain issues, and who their base is. In a show whose crux winds up being "How can we fix a divided America?", knowing which side of the ideological divide people are on is crucial. Without this knowledge, politician characters like President Mitchell and Dreyer feel woefully undercooked, especially when they deliver sermons about the problems facing the country.
"Half the country [is] caught up in a fever dream of lies and conspiracy," one character tells Mullen. "The other half [is] shouting about pronouns and ranking their grievances."
Statements like these wildly simplify the complex issues facing the United States today, not to mention put people just wanting to be referred to by the right pronouns on the same level as dangerous conspiracy theorists. (Zero Day was filmed prior to the 2024 election, but given the Trump administration's ongoing erasure of queer and trans history, the catchall complaint about "pronouns" is extra unfortunate.)
Crucially, Zero Day never examines who might have led people to believe these lies or have these grievances. The answer is undoubtedly the very politicians we're following, as well as figures like tech billionaire Monica Kidder (Gaby Hoffmann), who barely gets enough screen time to register as the show's answer to Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg. However, since we don't know who stands where and how they treat their base, Zero Day removes culpability for this divide from politicians — they're just trying to fix the division, apparently — and places it on the American people. After all, the only time Zero Day gives an explicit political affiliation is to call out a homegrown terrorist network of "radical leftists." But even then there are inconsistencies. Why do these leftists follow controversial TV host Evan Green (Dan Stevens), who's positioned as a right-leaning, Alex Jones-like figure? Details like this immediately remove viewers from the world of the show, even though Zero Day keeps stressing that it's speaking to division in modern society.
But in the Trump era, when political figures thrive on just such division, Zero Day's vagaries don't just feel naive. They feel like cop-outs.
A Monster Train sequel has just been announced, promising more of the incredibly popular, highly addictive roguelike deckbuilder. What's more, there's already a surprise PC demo that players can check out right now for free. It's a good thing we're headed toward the end of the week, because a lot of people's productivity is about to take a massive hit.
Developed by indie studio Shiny Shoe, 2020's Monster Train had players ride a locomotive through Hell, defending the Pyre on board from the armies of Heaven. Choosing from five clans featuring different abilities, players had to fend off the forces of Heaven across the train's three vertical levels, building a new deck of cards on each run to reignite the fires of Hell.
SEE ALSO: 'Slay the Spire 2' gets a ghastly gameplay trailer at The Game AwardsMonster Train 2 will now have players going full steam ahead in the opposite direction, rushing flat out through Heaven. Instead of reigniting the fires of Hell, this time players are out to stop the powerful Titans from destroying the world, heading toward their homeworld of the Abyss. To do so, Heaven and Hell have formed an incredibly unlikely alliance — and opened up exciting new gameplay possibilities.
In addition to new enemies, Monster Train 2 will feature new playable clans, both new and familiar cards, and even new card types. For example, Room Cards will boost a floor on your train, while Equipment Cards will power up individual units. Players can even customise their trains for different buffs, and there will be an endless mode for anyone who doesn't want the ride to end.
The Monster Train sequel isn't the only good news for people who appreciate fantastic video games. The original Monster Train is also a massive 90 percent off on Steam, putting it at just $2.49 — the lowest the game has ever been. Considering the hours of fun and strategic gameplay this game provides, it's pretty much a no-brainer. You can also pick up the Last Divinity DLC for just $1.79, which adds the Wurmkin clan to the game.
I have no idea how many hours I've already sunk into Monster Train on Xbox, but I'm absolutely ready to do it all over again on PC.
Monster Train 2 is scheduled to arrive "soon" on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Between this and Slay the Spire 2, 2025 is already shaping up to be an excellent year for card-based roguelike games.

Not the day you're after? Here's the solution to yesterday's Wordle.
Elon Musk may be the biggest beneficiary of Donald Trump's re-election, surpassing even Trump himself.
According to a new report from Bloomberg, Musk's social media platform X is currently looking to raise money from investors at a valuation of $44 billion. If that number sounds familiar, it's because that's precisely what Musk paid for the company formerly known as Twitter when he acquired it in October 2022.
In the years since Musk took over and rebranded the entire platform as X, its revenue has plummeted by nearly half of what it made as Twitter. That's billions of dollars in lost revenue.
Musk, alongside his financial backers, now seems to have overpaid for the company. One investor, Fidelity, calculated in September of last year that its investment had lost 79 percent of its value compared to when Musk acquired it.
However, the U.S. presidential election changed the game. Musk threw his support behind Trump, establishing a PAC to back the Republican candidate with hundreds of millions of dollars. That investment paid off when Trump won. Now, Trump has appointed Musk to oversee the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), granting him significant influence over federal spending.
SEE ALSO: Elon Musk's DOGE.gov website can apparently be edited by anyoneMusk's companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, have secured billions of dollars in government funding over the years. However, his close relationship with President Trump is now benefiting his businesses in ways beyond government contracts.
Since Musk took over X, the platform has seen a significant loss in advertisers due to content issues and some of Musk's own controversial statements. Nevertheless, after the election, some advertisers have signaled their return. While it's unclear how much they'll spend compared to previous campaigns, notable brands like Apple have begun running ads on X for the first time in years.
Additionally, some investors in Musk's X, who were struggling to sell off their debt, recently found success. Bloomberg reports that some were able to offload billions of dollars of this debt at "no discount to face value," meaning they likely got back most if not all of what they put in.
With X preparing to enable financial transactions on the platform and integrate Musk's AI company, xAI, and its Grok chatbot, the company is now seeking funds at the same $44 billion valuation Musk originally "overpaid." Thanks to Trump's election, Musk is now in a stronger position to raise the necessary capital.
Meta announced some new policies for Facebook live broadcasts and it's going to lead to a lot of deleted videos.
On Tuesday, the company announced in a blog post that all Facebook live broadcasts will only stay on Facebook Pages or profiles for 30 days, after which they'll be deleted and removed from Facebook. The new policy goes into effect starting on Wednesday, Feb. 19.
All user's live videos older than 30 days won't immediately be deleted and removed from Facebook but users will need to act fast if they want to keep them.
"Before your archival live videos are deleted, you will be notified by email and in the app, and from then you'll have 90 days to download or transfer your content," the blog post read, noting that the platform is "launching new tools to make downloading your previous live videos easier."
SEE ALSO: Mark Zuckerberg doubles down on Meta's submission to TrumpIf you'd like to keep your live videos, you have a few options. You can download them to your personal device individually or in bulk, transfer them to your cloud storage individually or in bulk, or convert the videos into a new Reel.
It's unclear why Meta is making this change, but it comes at a time in which the company is prioritizing vertical videos and Reels. Pressuring users into converting their live videos into reels lest they be lost forever could be seen as a pretty transparent move.
