It’s mostly because all the streaming services won’t give you higher res and HDR unless you’re using one of the boxes. You don’t need the slop tho. Nvidia shield imo has been solid for over a decade now. I’m over fire TV and those cheap shitty no name boxes are even worse. I have no idea why people fuck with those. Even a fire TV is better than that lol.

Yeah most of the time I don’t give a fuck about 4k. It’s HDR I’m after.

I don’t know why more people don’t do this. Don’t connect the TV to the Internet. Ever. Do updates using a flash drive if you must and connect whatever flavor streaming box you like. The TVs and their dumb os get slow and shitty anyway so why fuck around with it? Lol.

Our Democrat governor signed it. Why she signed this I still don’t really understand. She’s been using her veto power quite a bit and yet this one gets to go through. Ridiculous.
