...to wish y'all a merry Christmas?
BTW the Youtube algorithm, as a Christmas surprise, somehow managed to send a music list tailored to me on someone else Facebook post.
I am still confused by that witchery, but the sound track is awesome!

I have a monster video card now, and the power cables stick out the top and they come out enough to prevent the glass from going back on the case without pressing on the card in a way that makes me really uncomfortable.
What I need are some like, L-shaped or flush PCI-plug extenders I can use to transmit power to this card.

3090s aren't cheap. I got lucky with my 2080ti. Found someone with one collecting dust, they sold to me for $500.
Mike Hankey gave me a solution that works. I've already ordered the plugs.

The kid's current card is a 2080 Super. It may become surplus at some point.

That's not a bad card. Mine benches only about 30% better, and mine is overpriced in terms of performance (but I got a *smokin* deal on it - $575 w/ 2-day shipping included)

today I tried WhatsApp first time ever to talk a guy in another country.
it seems like the signal quality is good and easy to use.
diligent hands rule....

I find it to be a very useful app for staying in touch with family and friends who are spread across the world.

WhatsApp and Skype are what I use to regularly have video calls with friends in UK and US. I live in India.

You can’t beat free calls!
Though I have regular, paid-for cell phone service, I use WhatsApp most of the time, as the call quality is excellent. But that depends on the load on the WiFi network and on the internet connection to which your WiFi is connected.
In India, the regular cell phone service by the government-owned telephone company (BSNL) keeps dropping calls. I didn’t have the problem with the private cell phone companies.

good to know. the guy I called is in India this weekend, then go back to Bangladesh. His father is sick and went to hospital in India.
just wonder crossing this border is easy?

Crossing the border should be hard unless one has the proper visa.
But somehow we have millions of illegal immigrants. — sorry, undocumented aliens, Dreamers, or whatever is the politically correct term these days — from Bangladesh in eastern India.
I guess greasing the palms of the border guards enables one to slip through the border!
