More events from yesterday, "Insanity Inducing Technology"

I've been struggling with this damned CPAP machine for over a month, due to the stupid masks will not stay sealed.
When they are sealed, it is pretty much silent, but any leakage, means noise which wakes me up (or prevents me getting to sleep)
The above image shows that I got disgusted and pulled the mask off after just under 4 hrs.
So I had received the new camera
(THIS IS THE OLD ONE, but the new one looks exactly the same, only it has a solar panel)

So that night, after NOT GETTING notifications from my Ring doorbell of motion on my porch from the deliveries
I started trying to get the new camera set up.
Similar set up procedures, and BOTH CAMERAS had the stipulation to "be sure you are connecting to 2.4G wifi, the camera will not function on 5G".
The other camera did, and the other camera looks exactly the same. This one had the same options for set up, either scan the QR code (the other cam had a TINY qr code, hard to get to) this one has a big one, because IT'S ON YOUR PHONE.
You hold your phone with the QR code so that camera can see it. Seemed to work, but NOOOoooo.

So I tried the SOUND link. Sit there and listen to the GOD awful noise. The camera said "Set-up data received" then I waited, and the set up failed.

So I called (god help me, why do I do this to myself, at NIGHT, before I have early appointments?) xfinity/comcast support.
I got the explanation. (after about 20 min of hollering at a stupid BOT...WHY do I do that to myself?)
Yes, my wifi has both 2.4g and 5.0g channels, but because I have an xFi pod extender in the studio, both are now 5G. I had to BUY that damned pod. ($119!)

So I asked all sorts of questions, I got the data that said "no you can't do that", and I went to bed. The tech replied just as I was in the middle of getting my night meds, so I wasn't sure if I'd gotten the Zyrtec.
I did get the new muscle relaxer. I was just all scattered.
So I took a xanax, sat up reading for a bit. turned off and tried to sleep.
An hour later I drank some milk.
An hour later I took ANOTHER xanax. (I know bad boy)
FINALLY, I thought let me try the DAMNED MASK.

So yesterday, I went out, unplugged the xFi pod, linked up the camera, plugged the pod back in, and now everything is (knock on wood, so far) working just fine. Don't let anyone tell ME "it can't be done"

Today, I got up with a headache, a goodsized GOOSE EGG on my knoggin' after all that work around the yard yesterday.
I have no idea when or where I hit my head, if indeed that is what I did, or if I am growing another head up there.
This is today's mask image

I just can't seem to catch a break.
I got some videos from the new camera, I loaded them to my Filmora software to make a decent video.
It said the format of these videos from the new camera, required my computer system have a HVEC Codec, whatever that is, and sent me to the Micro$oft app store.
There, the thing cost $0.99 (99¢) so I said sure.
The M$ store didn't recognize my info, and one thing lead to another, and now, my M$ account is in some sort of limbo, until 30 days at which time ALL MY SECURITY info will be replaced!

This is just like the cascade started by the VA PCP requiring me to get that first covid brain scrape
When I open my MAIL app on the pc, little dots crawl along the top, like it is stuck in refresh.
I sent a test message, and it went through, so I guess I will be able to use my email at least.
And there you have it.
I NEVER DID GET THAT CODEC, so I still can't make a video from the clips from the new camera
