Oh finally I can pull it out of my closet and actually use it again! Oh wait... It requires you have not updated the device.

I guess I'll just hit it with a sledgehammer then and continue to use my computer that doesn't force ads on me by default because I run Linux and also use my Windows 11 computer with updates disabled on it that will probably be switched over to Linux when 24H2 comes out or when 23H2 no longer receives security updates.

P.S. You can't change the default launcher anymore and scoped filesystems basically broke all functionality on the thing that I was using it for. I also don't know the domains for Google's ads that they show on the device and I don't care anymore.
