Saw the photo of the JetBlue aircraft and smiled. I took that photo and shared it with the PIOs on September 12, 2019.

The antennae really stand out in that first pic. Does anyone know the height of those?

The tallest of the bunch is the KXAN tv tower at 1308 ft. which makes it the tallest structure in Austin. The others are about 100 ft shorter.

That is quite epic. I have been on this planet for almost 62 years and I have never seen anything like this. I hope videos like this are retrievable in the coming years lest we forget. For the first time since this all began, I'm starting to become a bit concerned. I still have to go to work every day and interact with customers.

I hadn't seen this, but the Line Hotel has some lights on the new mural.

That's cool. That looked great on our big tv. I used Google Chrome's browswer "cast" feature to cast the video to our tv so I could watch it big.

In Google Chrome, if you click on the three dots on your browser, select the "cast" feature. If you have a smart tv, you should be able to cast it to your tv so you can see it on a bigger screen than your computer monitor. We use that feature to watch movies sometimes by casting them from our laptop to our tv.

Don't you have to have Chromecast on your TV for that to work? I have Fire TV, and the Cast feature is not compatible. But most smart TVs (and Fire TV) have a Youtube App. That "When a City Stays Home" video you posted a link to is incredible on a large screen.

That is really cool. I love night time skylines. Plus it was a week pre-apocalypse and the streets were busy. Too bad our two tallest buildings didn't have their crowns lit. Frost looked great.

I use my Xbox One S for viewing high def. Works great when you have a 4k TV as well.

I hadn't considered that, but ours is a Vizio, and it does have it. My brother's is a Sony, and it does, too. I would assume that if you have the Youtube app that it should work, or if you have the ability to cast it. A last resort option is to run an HDMI cable from your computer or laptop to your tv's HDMI port.
