I didn’t even mention that aspect in my top-level comment because the check engine light is burned out. The systems and access to them were a mess before, and now I’m expecting medicaid cut headlines (and/or dropped people). Which personally, the idea of interrupted treatment makes me more wary than no treatment.

I do as well as I can in an enjoyable way to keep myself somewhat stable. Like I’ve been riding my bike on the trail lately* and I enjoy cooking** for myself. I’ll sometimes drink soda, but honestly I think if the sugar were halved I would probably enjoy it more (or just… some dessert is probably less sugar). Even though I guess subsidies make sugar cheaper than water.

I’ll sweep the floor because I don’t want to walk on dirt. Though yeah, I’m probably stuck here more than others.

* mostly to go outside (with not many good destinations I can viably reach), though I can make it to a local grocery store for a few things

** mostly sautéed vegetables, squash/celery/mushrooms/carrots/onions etc, spinach on sandwiches and recently have tried cooking chard

If something like USB doesn’t show your video, it may be too new of a codec (it may want mp4 or mpg or avi or wmv (mov or m4v?), not webm or mkv etc).

One thing to consider may be media-capable consoles (PS3/Xbox 360? and newer). Or an older computer, or maybe someone will be fine running it off of their laptop (or phone if you have a cord/casting).

You may want to use some sort of server (simple HTTP, perhaps even a media server) if you have a video-capable (+network-capable) device that does not have enough storage. You may need to do firewall/port stuff for that (fixed local address), though it might be more convenient in some cases.
