Nothing much planned for this day. I spent an hour diagramming how I will connect all the various cables of the new computer when it arrives. Yesterday I realized that I have bought a 5K monitor, but that the Mac Mini only supports up to 4K over HDMI. To go to higher resolution it uses its Thunderbolt ports. So I ordered a well-reviewed thunderbolt to displayport cable.
Anyway. I also went down to the auditorium and tested both our “AV” laptops, the new Dell and an antique but still functional MacBook, making sure that both can function as either a zoom host or a zoom attendee. Then I did some reorganizing in the AV cabinet backstage and found a couple of bulky boxes that haven’t been touched in a long time. One was a mish-mash of Radio Shack wireless mics and matching receivers. They were all made obsolete for us when our sound system was remodeled in 2020. So I pulled them out and will recycle them somehow.
Played some guitar, read a book. Quiet asocial day.
