Welcome to the party! Thanks for the cat tax!
Sucks about the 4090. Maybe you can play around with undervolting it to see if you can minimise the sound a bit. Underclocking and/or undervolting won’t get rid of coil whine completely, but you’ll observe noticeable improvement.
I had the same problem too. Many years ago in December the final weeks when businesses are slow, I painstakingly went through and edited every single one of my accounts one at a time and changed emails. If there was a legacy thing I couldn’t access or a system that wouldn’t let you change your email, then I discarded it. How do you eat a dinosaur? One bite at a time.
Through my investment in time, all my accounts are managed via the method I commented above. I own my email, and I control how I get contacted.
I’ve been off Gmail for years and deleted all my Google accounts. Here’s how you can do it, too.
Step 1: Export your emails from Gmail into an EML file.
Step 2: Sign up for a new paid email provider: Tuta, Mailbox.org, Proton to name a few.
Step 3: Import your emails.
Done.
Optional Steps (that I recommend):
With this, you now have a unique email address for every single service, and all those alias email addresses forward your email to your actual email address. The benefit is that no one knows your real email address except you. Bye bye SPAM. When an alias email gets leaked or sold, you’ll know which company failed you. Simply swap to a different alias email, and disable the compromised alias - all SPAM stops.
The Game: Racism, bigotry, hatred, greed, and Christian Nationalism.
MAGA: I take bullet for you.
Republiklan God’s plan: “And Amen I say to you, if you send me one tariff, I will send you two tariffs back. And I will punish the wicked - and by wicked I mean those Radical Left Lunatics that are eating the dogs and the cats.”
Installing spyware and wire taps in my home was never appealing to me.
“So long gay Bowser”
Elon Musk: “Don’t knock it ‘til you try it!”
Ha ha sucks for this asshole. He didn’t give a shit until it affected him personally.
Republikkklan: the party of hatred, NIMBY, and selfishness. “Fuck you, got mine.”
JD Vance: “It’s not there. I was poking around and didn’t find it.”
I see many of my favorites, so I’ll throw down the first book I really remember loving as a kid because it is so touching:

Hey PC Master Race community! And hi anyone else that stumbles upon this post and is not a member of the PCMR community!
Summer is almost over, and it has been an interesting year for sure. I previously did a giveaway for last Winter Holiday 2023, and decided I should do another giveaway! Basically because we here in Lemmy are still alive and kicking, and I want to do something nice for a few lucky gamers.
Some of the games have multiple key codes, denoted by the quantity.
Additional Game Keys donated by an anonymous Lemming
These games come from Humble Bundle, Games Planet, and Fanatical. There is only one key for each of the nine listed below:
EU Countries Only (will not activate in any other region):
Update Sep 21:
All the games above that aren't striked through are still available.
Will post these either next week or the week after, so I can rest and recover from my cold.

Update Sep 8:
The other games listed above did not have anyone enter for them. I will make a new post in [!giftofgaming@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/c/giftofgaming) to giveaway those keys. The list starts with "Agatha Knife".

Not my meme, I stole it from someone else. You wouldn't know them, they go to a different community.
Graphene will be working with a new OEM partner, as they officially announced. We should expect to hear who the OEM will be in 2026-2027.
