What is up, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the WAN show. We've got a fantastic show lined

0:09.6

up for you guys today. Absolutely. I will be apologizing to Elon Musk again. Nice.

0:15.2

Better. Every week. And also not entirely. So if you enjoy that, then congratulations.

0:23.4

You are alone. In other news, Dell has created a proprietary DDR5 connector. And it might

0:33.1

be a good thing. What? Yeah, that's that's absolutely what we needed. Also, we are not

0:40.5

introducing the labs leader today. We are pushing that back another week. So hopefully you'll

0:49.1

be able to tune in and see that next week. And other than that, Europe inches even much

0:55.3

more closer to usbc on iPhones, which is fantabular. We've been talking about that for a long time.

1:03.5

And what one should I intro? I don't know. We're going to talk about so many other things.

1:46.2

Hit it. Oh my goodness.

2:09.4

Sponsors. You got it on. You got to unhide them. You got to show them. Yeah. There you go.

2:14.2

And then hide it. Show another one. There you go. Yeah. Oh, geez. Yeah. Thanks so much.

2:21.4

We did it. We're back. We're here. Oh, holy professional show. I absolutely love it.

2:26.8

Yeah, it's fantastic. Why don't we jump right into our first topic today, which is to introduce
