πŸ™† a sea change

πŸ™†  or ?????

the temperature outside is 61 to start the day
yes, it will get up close to mid 80 s + humidity
but this is the second morning w/ below 60 s overnight

interesting. a former mayor of Calgary AB, was asked to address a series of lectures on Cdn culture.

' Nenshi said : in my two terms as mayor, I attended numerous sessions on the radicalization of Muslim youth   BUT not once did I get asked to address the radicalization of the White Right '  [ paraphrased ]

there has been a re - adjustment for the Chromebook w/ TV. I knew that I had 2 monitors for computers. One is an Acer and the other Phillips. Except !!!
both have VGA connectors only. VGA are the 18 pin connector for old computers vs the typical USB C found on machines nowdays

Thu, I sent for a converter VGA to HDMI [ HDMI can plug into the dongle that was there ]
Amazon delivered in one day, at 5:00 PM. 
At 5:20 all was re - aligned and ready.
So, everything should work, 

No. the monitor flashes a window ' no signal '
now, I'm not sure of the computer -ese involved. I tried several things
wait !!! do you think it means not just connected but displaying a web page
Yepper. Got it going.

Pros for this set up. Well, computer on one end and monitor for a computer on the other. The picture display is synced for a computer screen. Great image and nil distortion. The TV image was just slightly askew.

Cons : most older monitors had no built in speakers and the built ins were terrible quality. Solution : you use headphones. Cumbersome but good sound 

There you go $ 12 and one day and satisfying set up.

Now, the TV goes back downstairs to make a Chromebook to TV set up - downstairs
