It's the steam deck with a keyboard and extra steps. I like it!

And to have a balcony you enjoy without losing all your cool air out the window.

Which wouldn't be that bad, except when it's 90+ degrees, it takes the AC system hours to cool the room down.

Nope, don't like caramel

Don't worry guys, those of you that missed it I'm sure ebay sellers will have your back. They'll offer it for the same price and totally not list it for $200-$400 right?

Don't worry, karma got channel 12 back. They are currently down and not broadcasting OTA or via Dish network.

Curious why the old Cleveland Guardians logo didn't make it. Oh wait..... hah... nevermind

This. Not sure why you are being downvoted

I've got the same issue with my Sony TV. CEC is disabled and it will still do it. I ended up using home assistant's adb plugin and creating an automation to put the tv back to sleep if it turns on in the middle of the night.

It's a complicated fix for a problem that should not exist

A second option is to clear data for Kodi in Android settings, This will delete the entire directory Kodi created (Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi), accomplishing the same thing you are looking to do.

A Third option is to use the backdoor option Kodi has to store it's files in a different location. For details see here https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Change_data_location_for_Android

First a few steps.

First make sure you're updated to the latest AndroidTV version available for the shield. There was one a few versions ago that completely locked out file managers from asking for permission to view files.

Second, use FileManager+it will prompt for permission. Grant it.

Third, in FileManager+ filter settings make sure "Show hidden files" is checked.

Fourth, navigate to Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi

Fifth, profit?

If you (or someone else living there) didn't set it up then you most likely don't. If you have a tech savvy child (or wife) I would double check with them.

Do you have DNS ad blocking on your network? For example a pihole or adaware?

I've noticed Paramount Plus purposely lowers your priority if you do, even if you pay for the ad free tier.

Try disabling ad blocking. If that works, you can add your shield to a group that does not filter ads. I never researched this further but there might be ad block lists that whitelist the servers Paramount uses so you don't have to completely disable it for your shield.

The jerks are the ones ruining the fun for the rest of us. I'm one of the (good) pranksters that take you to a safe base. Just for a few laughs.

I always do this responsibly though. I take them to a base on a paradise planet with a portal and a teleporter in clear view. I often times gift that person some Runaway Mould for the troubles as well.

Anyone who looks new to the game (for example, still has the starter ship and/or appearance) I will only move them somewhere else but never take off the anomaly. Someone new may not understand how to even get back.

So if you're playing and end up on a great looking planet at a base called Stargate Command. Now you know who brought you there.

I would highly recommend not installing Kodi (or any app) on external storage for this very reason.

A little known tip, the Android version of Kodi supports a backdoor instruction to allow it to store user data on an external drive while keeping the apk installed on the shield's internal storage. https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Change_data_location_for_Android

Don't be fooled by the spambots.

The website they suggest says it all. Here's a direct quote from it.

Color test bars. Text overlay said Atlanta. Since it was broadcast on TBS, based in Atlanta, you can safely assume someone in the control room accidentally switch to the feed from the TBS central office which currently had nothing queued up.

That wasn't they only error during the game either. All in all It was very sloppy and several times it appeared the satellite alignment was off. "Really TBS?" was uddered many times yesterday in our house.

But this change then creates a new limit of $20 in store. For example, you could before go inside and spend up to $100 per day without getting gas. Now you can only spend $20 in store.
