Thursday/ shopping for electronics 📺

I ran out to Best Buy today to pick up one more Google Chromecast*, for the TV in my guest room.

*A device that plugs into the HDMI port of a TV and then creates an on-screen user interface with a range of TV services, for watching shows or movies (such as Netflix, Hulu, or YouTube TV), listening to music (like Spotify or YouTube Music), and more.

Here’s a Jurassic World indoraptor on the shelf, that I made to pose with my Google Chromecast before I walked over to the cash register.
(A metaphor for me? A dinosaur that can still install a little bit of technology in his house 🤗 . )
And here is the mythical, unicorn of a compact camera, the FujiFilm X100V.
It has gotten rave reviews and gold star ratings from camera experts, but has forever been sold out in stores, and online. (Forever= for more than three years).
I never did get to see one on the shelf in any of the camera stores in Tokyo.
Best Buy does not have any in stock either (of course not), but hey, at least one can hold it and fiddle with the buttons and settings.
