--- Day 12: Hill Climbing Algorithm ---

You try contacting the Elves using your handheld device, but the river you're following must be too low to get a decent signal.

You ask the device for a heightmap of the surrounding area (your puzzle input). The heightmap shows the local area from above broken into a grid; the elevation of each square of the grid is given by a single lowercase letter, where a is the lowest elevation, b is the next-lowest, and so on up to the highest elevation, z.

Also included on the heightmap are marks for your current position (S) and the location that should get the best signal (E). Your current position (S) has elevation a, and the location that should get the best signal (E) has elevation z.

You'd like to reach E, but to save energy, you should do it in as few steps as possible. During each step, you can move exactly one square up, down, left, or right. To avoid needing to get out your climbing gear, the elevation of the destination square can be at most one higher than the ele

Ok, I think I'm gonna actually build myself a PC this Black Friday season instead of just talking about it. Goals:

• Living room PC attached to TV
• Will be hooking it up to this TV via HDMI [1] -- advertized as 4K HDR
• Want to play some games, mostly via controller. Mostly older stuff and less resource-intensive indie games. I think the most resource-intensive stuff I'm looking to play is, like, Outer Worlds and Control? I have no need to make them look great, and I won't be upset if I can't play them until I upgrade the box in a few years when prices are lower.
• I'm thinking I'll install Windows as well so I can get on GamePass when I feel like playing newer stuff, and just to generally avoid thinking too hard about administering the box.

I found a build on r/buildmeapc that that someone recommended for a user who had more or less my goals. The build is a
