Just today spent way over an hour setting up a Chromecast with Google TV at father in laws today. Factory reset that thing four times. Used every wifi connection I could find and finally got it working by hot-spotting my own phone and setting it up.
Not buying more Google. It's just hot garbage at this point.
The indie game scene is really fun.
If you can't be bothered to read about games just check out Splattercatgaming on YouTube. Splattercat plays a new (or upcoming) indie game every day for 30 minutes mostly from start, so what you see is what you get pretty much.
