dark at 7 Am and the roads looked slick and glistened

The temperature was 30 ???? on the backdeck

Daylight come
and not much better but the wind is up and moving everything

Celebrate the age !

Phase Something or other of project projection. This morning, hooked the Chromebook w/ its charger to the dongle and plugged in the TV HDMI cable into the dongle. Voila, we have the internet showing on the big screen < 44 in screen >
The idea was to practice for - well, sometime when it would be neat to use the Chromebook in this way.
Apparently, I missed the boat a bit b/c there is an exterior plug in device called Chromecast which does what my hook up just did.
However, bearing in mind how cheap I am and needing proof that the crap that I buy might be useful,
You can see my morning adventure as a win - win.
EXCEPT - you didn't notice, I used the regular power supply for the Chromebook
NOT the extra power supply that I bought to get 65 Watts to power the dongle and still charge the Chromebook.
However, in my defence, the Chromebook was charging but I didn't notice the charge time. Typically, the Chromebook charges at a rate of 1 % per minute.
That is in the middle range, as you get close to full charge these electronics sometimes drop charging speed til finished.
But: the dongle allows plugging in 6 devices e.g USB, HDMI, SD cards < full and mini> and an Ethernet cable < this means a hard wired connection rather than WiFi >
AND this might need the 65 Watt supply charger

The chit chat on the 'net says the Chromebook is a master at multiple hook ups. In fact, unlike other devices e.g. tablets, the Chromebook is designed for this disparate functionality
