Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

You still have it? Can you explain that a little better? Did the Dell logo appear and then it went to a black screen, or did it just stay on a black screen the second you pushed the power button?
Dell laptops are not that great. I have a old Latitude E6230 that I used up until last year. The thing was practically falling apart when I bought my used Lenovo ThinkPad x260.

From 2008? That's old. It could explain why you are having issues.
I found this but it is very useless. Sounds like what you are describing:

You're welcome .
If the laptop has a HDMI port and you have your TV, you can plug your computer into the TV and use it from there. Fairly easy to do. The only issue would be as to whether or not Windows will pick up the TV and use it as the primary screen.

The stray animals here aren’t very smart. I saved a duckling from next door, was being carried away by a cat.
1. I shouldn’t have so many stray birds from next door
2. I shouldn’t have so many stray cats in my yard either’
The County doesn’t do anything about strays anymore.
I saved the duckling this time, but I fear that the cats will get a meal one way or the other!
I’m perplexed, bewildered, in a conundrum,( enigma) if you prefer!

This is very sad. Good for you in saving it. Were you able to return it to its mom?

Awlll, they are loving that breakfast

They have not had corn in 6 to 8 weeks so it was a real treat today.

Am I being better @micstrachan ?

The duckling headed back under the fence

A beautiful tribute for a beautiful and special chicken. In her short life she got to experience many things in the "way of the chicken". Soar now little chicken, soar high with those eagles.

Edited to add.
When you need to take breaks from flying little chicken know there are 4 tiny littles waiting for you at the rainbow bridge in need of a mother.

Such a sweet sentiment. I'm sure she will gladly help them.

A TV is like a huge desktop monitor. So pretty much anything that has the right port and can support the resolution of the TV can plug into it and use it as a monitor (display).
I am going to owe so much tax for helping other people.
