I got some new cat toys! 

They are actually wand replacements, but my cats usually end up destroying the wand (by biting the string until the feather snaps off) and usually run off with the feather. So I just got it mostly for the feather toy. I gave them one to play with. 

Smokey is loving it. Hoping to save the rest of them for Christmas (long as she doesn't destroy what she got today by then). I love it when my girls are happy. 

Free cat picture too (kind of), she was curious about what I got her.

You can take a look at all of the Tech that I own and have owned over the years in my About Me section and on my Profile.

 

I'm Swiss and my Mother language is Swiss German of course, I speak the Aargauer dialect. If you want to watch a great video about Swiss German which explains the language and outlines the Basics, then click here.

 

If I could just play Videogames and consume Cool Content all day long for the rest of my life, then that would be sick.

First watercooling for me... 

RGB hub was missing in the box and the main screw bag was opened and closed with tape so probably a return but sold as new,. complained and ended up getting it for about half price or $55ish, great deal since I don't care about the RGB anyway. Handles a nice sustained 310W, compared to about 220 for the old NH-D14. Quite a bit of that is due to the improved airflow from the extra fans, but that was expected/kind of the goal and... at this price the cooler pretty much came for free with the fans 😅

And yes, I'm finally going to install something to hold that GPU tomorrow...

My first Pixel, literally a no charge phone they my carrier…see what the Pixel is all about.

I've had pixels for years at this point.  I'm on my 4th.  Had the 1, 2, 4a and 6a with a Galaxy S8 between somewhere and I love them.  My only gripe with the 6a is i wish it was a little smaller like the 4a

removing some of the stickers, goo gone didn’t cut it, I used throttle body cleaner which worked amazingly but is definitely a gamble as it removes paint a little

Pretty sure that port style is indicative of FW400. If I'm not mistaken FW800 is a square port, kind of similarish in appearance to miniDP at a passing glance.

I've never had one...figured if the carrier is literally giving them away so to speak...why not? My bill isn't going up due to it. So far I like it, the big thing is it's not incredibly thin so it's easy to hold and use...I like that and the camera strip rests along the index finger at just the right spot, nice feature whether it's be design or accident. Just got it all set up, now to actually learn how to use Android for real with a decent little phone.

I like them comfy, the analog way to let sound in is nice but also I can adapt them to comms.
