The first two smartphones and a pixel 10 xl. I can't find the charge cable for the HTC dream in the middle, the iPhone I could probably get going though, assuming the battery is spry.

Just finished binging Severance. Great show! For the tech minded, the show runs minds like an ARM CPU with TrustZone but without any context sharing. You can boot S or NS until the next warm reset. On the severed floor they are S, in the elevator switching S<->NS.
