Going to make a cup coffee shortly and listen to some short Sci Fi stories to see if I want to keep them while pottering around doing small jobs here and there.

I'll take plenty of reading material in the event of spending the entire stay in a hotel basement.

My GPU, a GTX 680 that I had since 2012, finally up and died. Got some orange pixels on screen followed by a BSOD. She was a good card and lasted me a long time; just was 'er time to go.

So, I'm using an old GTX 560 Ti that I had laying around in storage, for use in the interim, until the RTX 2080 Ti releases in a few weeks. Then I'll get that along with a new CPU and MoBo, and everything will be gravy again.

Nice. I saw a VH-3 and VH-60 the other day, flying at low altitude. Also saw a UH-1Y and AH-1Z fly over my house a few months back.

He was a long way up so I zoomed with the camcorder. The strangest aircraft I've seen above our house was the V-22 Osprey; I wondered just what the heck this odd rumbling sound was when I heard them for the first time
