| 0:03.5 | I'm good. I've been on vacation slash like a stay-cation situation this week. |
| 0:09.4 | So this is the first time I've really sat down at a computer since last Friday and I was telling you before we |
| 0:15.7 | started recording it's like a miracle that I made it on time because I woke I woke up this |
| 0:21.1 | morning and my phone was dead like completely dead so like none of the |
| 0:25.3 | alarms went off and but I made it we're here I've just been like falling asleep |
| 0:30.5 | wherever that's because that's because your iPhone 14 pro battery so |

| 1:29.7 | from lightning to a USBC port which will bring the iPhone in line with Apple's other products, right? |
| 1:36.4 | The Mac, the iPad. |
| 1:39.2 | We think that this change or the timing of this transition is mostly based on the fact that the EU is enforcing it from next year, |
