Chromebook can now livestream.
Added 2019-11-11 12:44:35 +0000 UTCI use a Chromebook for most of my online activity because it's FAST and much more secure than traditional operating systems if you are careful about browser extensions.
Previous attempts to live stream to YouTube directly from the Chromebook have failed, but now (possibly with the new Android compatibility) it has suddenly been enabled.
Hopefully this means I can do more casual unplanned live streams in future.
There are plans to do an MBC live stream tonight (Monday 11/11/2019), but that will depend on the weather as I have to battle the elements to get over to Juan's place where we film it. Wind is fine, but thrashing rain is not. Right now there's a full on storm outside.
If the stream goes ahead it will be some time around 8pm UK time and will be on the new BigCliveLive channel to avoid alienating the delicate people.

Finally got time to watch the stream last night. If you want I can send you / Juan (I think) some of the Chimay cheese that he was bemoaning the lack of. Fairly sure I can still get it in Belgium at the moment.

2019-11-12 01:36:28 +0000 UTCWait, what? There are delicate people subscribed to the main channel? I would have thought they'd all fled in terror by now. :)
2019-11-11 19:01:39 +0000 UTCCool. Was out riding motorcycle while weather was nice. (Supposed to drop 30 deg. tomorrow) Picked up a 40, 60, and 100 watt equiv.. LED light b ulbs at Dollar Tree. Might just take a couple " to bits" while listening to MBC live.
2019-11-11 19:00:04 +0000 UTCChromebooks are rather neat little devices, i bought an acer 11 inch one for cheap because i was curious, and really like it!

2019-11-11 16:13:39 +0000 UTCUnfortunately the forecast indicates it'll be raining over the island but my phone app seems to be spotty on who specifically gets it so here's hoping you get a break in the rain this evening.
