>For some reason, she doesn't have single HDMI cable so she couldn't connect it to a monitor.

LOL. Outside of computer dorks what not, it's not very common for people to have a large selection of cables to go digging through. Maybe a drawer full of decrypt USB cables that came as chargers to a phone, but most people I know lose those cables and are constantly buying replacements. So expecting the average person to have a box full of random cables suggests to me you might be living in a bit of a bubble.

i find that it’s actually fairly common for people to have accumulated several loose and random cables over time. even my mother, who is not particularly a technologically inclined individual, still had several hdmi cables and different usb cables. every single device (not just phones but things like flashlights, wireless accessories, fans, etc…) people buy that needs to be charged generally comes with a charging cable, and there are ever more usb chargeable devices coming on the market nowadays.

hell, even homeless people such as myself tend to have giant collections of random cables, even when they don’t actually have anything that requires charging.
