Been paying a mortgage for 6 years, child is on the way. Plan well and the big changes and little changes shouldn’t phase you. Even if it becomes a struggle at times I won’t be looking at my Nvidia Shield with a sour expression as it sips power.
You’re worried about the energy cost of a Chromecast when you have a TV 😂 How childish do you have to be to resort to building your argument on silly factors like money and energy costs to justify why you can’t manage to install an app on a cheap Android TV device.
Kids nowadays can run rings around average adults when it comes to interacting with touchscreen devices and phones, I think they can manage a TV! This is beyond satire.
You worked in IT 20 years? Your original comment doesn’t give that impression.
Anyway, if your TV has HDMI which it most likely will do, plug in an Android TV device and then you can install whichever Android app you want, including ones that allow you to watch YT with no ads.
Hard to get an adblock working
Nowadays it really isn’t. You install an app like you install the YouTube app, whether it be on Android TV or Android phone. Same for Windows and Linux, you install another app like you’ve done countless times before.
Unifi Cloud Gateway Ultra as your router - Wireguard VPN in to your network and if that fails to connect then you can use Teleport feature via the WifiMan app.
My response didn’t contain any calculations so not sure why you’re throwing some random accusation. Are you hallucinating like a shitty AI?
You’re clearly tech illiterate and are cowering behind your perceived superiority of having kids to justify why you won’t install an app to bypass YT ads because you can’t fathom the simplicity of it.
