The first post says it all Shalom, This is the home of the Pittsfield Jew. Sure its neat to read about Jews in Brooklyn who are very observant but how about a not so observant Jew who lives in the Mid West?

USB and wires

He did get lots of positive feedback from Dolly today. He got her patient referral report working more correctly. Lea had given him some bad information and that made the report really bad. This all caused some major coughing/lung collapsing spasms.

But now all is well.

Jonny is up to page 382 of his book.

Last night he and Angelina watched Criminal Minds on DVR.

Jonny listened to the parsha today. He saw and said Shalom to a chasid at the hotel california branch just for children. It was hopefully that he was there for a birth and not a tragedy. Jonny goes over to that building to get a drink of water sometimes.

Today Jonny is barely working, sometimes. Jonny spent two hours searching for VHS to DVD solutions. The problems also partly, does the person have a DVD burner as well as the special VHS analog to digital adapter part. Another alternate technical solution is to buy a cam corder that can do some of the same features as in, it can take a RCA audio feed from a VCR and record to digital. Then boom you got your VHS tape on digital. Same idea with printers. Thus today's problem. What to do with the HP Laser printer that isn't wireless. One solution is to buy a wireless print server, another is a wireless router, or buy a wireless printer. Some routers will accept a USB input from a USB printer. It turns out that would work here in the Miller home if not for one obstacle. The desktop computer is already plugged into the USB port. This is because its network ethernet doesn't work. So there is another solution, buy a USB to ethernet wire. They cost as little as $25. The wireless USB adapter isn't the solution. That absolutely won't work. Then Jonny can get a long wire from the printer to the router. Then a short network wire from the ethernet adapter to the desktop. This frees up a USB cable. Unfortunately not the cable desired to free up. Jonny has a card reader that uses the square USB to flat USB connection. He has two of those, one for the reader and one for the printer. It would be nice to have the square USB extra for the reader when the reader is needed on the laptop. He has it set up so the reader is on the desk of the desktop and the wire snakes back behind. It is soley used for digital picture retrieval off the SD card. Of course the desktop's built in card reader doesn't work. The laptop doesn't have it. The other laptop surprise by DELL has a card reader.
