Any recommendations to easing the transition to removing the tv from the internet?

My LG is connected to a less trusted vlan and behind a pihole (which matters somewhat, but no clue what goes around it without digging into other logs). I looked at rooting it the other day and I can’t with my firmware and honestly not sure what else would need to be done even if I could to avoid things.

I’ve got a mini pc setup connected to it, but forcing others in the house to use it over baked in apps seems like an uphill battle. Maybe setup some passwordless, generic account that can only open Firefox (somehow limited to just a few sites like YouTube), Plex, and idk what else. Would still lose out on apple tv I think since it’s a Linux box.

Curious if there’s a simplified, safer route that’s easy enough for non tech folk.

Roman numerals still count right?

Lol still not enough

physical media offers protections from corporate abuse/greed

Does it though? It used to a long time ago but aren’t a lot of discs for games just blocked if you’re not connected to the internet to get required upgrades?

Even if that’s not much of a thing yet, I fear it will be.

Is the PR flag Puerto Rico?

That’s why I disable it

What is going on with the left hand on the right most one? It’s almost like it looks like it’s holding an invisible cup, but the fingers are messed up. I can’t figure it out.

This coupled with pihole is great! The pihole docs even have setup for unbound and it’s really easy to follow.
