If you haven't seen the trend on X of people hacking their TVs to remove the bloat and spyware then add in better UI it's been pretty awesome to watch.

I'm waiting for someone to do this for Roku devices, I would love clean up the Roku OS (though to be fair it is one of the cleanest visually)

There a good user or post to look at? X is barely accessible for anything.
When I read the top-level comment, I was almost certain it was going to be AI-assisted. Before, your only chance at something like that was either having the skills to RE and mod everything yourself, or finding someone equally motivated and skilled to do it. Now you can pay AI to do your bidding, and while vibecoding is definitely not perfect, it has definitely lowered the bar. What an interesting era we live in.

I ended up finding some projects for samsung tvs. Not sure if they can help clean them up, but they do seem to allow installing your own apps and controlling the tv.
Beat lvl 100 Mewtwo with lvl 5 Pikachu to change settings? Still easier than using a Samsung smart TV.

Reminds me of when we set up an outdated Sega Dreamcast for emulation. We had rolled home a trash picked badly out of alignment rear projection TV on our skateboards and parked it in the garage - mom wasn't letting it in the house. My youngest brother, still in diapers, thought it completely normal to sit on the garage floor and play the Gameboy "Green" Pokemon English translated rom. The individual emulated pixels were huge on that thing (and three different colors around the edges).

That's the gameboy advance intro though

If only that was the only thing... Don't expect the average clout chaser to have any care for what they're making.

Well, it's vibe coded so temper your expectations of intelligence.

How long would it have taken you to root, debloat, and code a new UI for your TV?
besterman23 6 hours ago [-]
Is this rooted? Isn’t this just be a side-loaded app over adb?
the settings was very funny. could just be playing a video as far as i know
im going to say this here just to vent it out once:
some part of me sinks into depression when vibe coders say "I" turned/did/made something. why does this bother me? smart managers i work with who actually build things as hobbies and used to build apps say this all the time so its not like it indicates someone is phony, it just really catches on my brain when i hear it

My guess? It's like claiming credit for something someone else did.
It would be like me commissioning a painting and then claiming I painted it.

Isn't it just kind of how we speak about these sort of things? Like, say your partner asked you if you washed the dishes, would you tell them "No, the dishwasher did" or just "Yes"?

I believe that being able to claim the credit is a large part of the motivation for vibe coding for a lot of people.

The title made my mind jump to these great peripherals:
Has a long way to go. Many errors here, and any true fan or historian of Nintendo would see them immediately.
The startup screen is the Game Boy Advance, not Color.
The Pokemon center building is completely messed up.
The sprites are a bizarre and somewhat inaccurate mishmash of the RBY and GSC games. Only GSC were coded with GBC colors (Yellow was a bit of a middle ground, Red and Blue were only GB coded)
At least he's saying Game Boy and not the incorrect "Gameboy" that most people type wrong.

You can play GBC games on the GBA.

You can also add that the back sprites during the battle aren't positioned correctly: the cut-off at the bottom is supposed to be aligned with the UI and go unnoticed. ;)

The GB color had a similar intro right? I can't remember, I gave my GBC to a friend over 25 years ago.
> GSC were coded with GBC colors
Crystal had a much wider palette for the GBC because it was a GBC-exclusive game while GS had to be retrocompatible with the GB.

Gold and Silver had access to all the same colors as Crystal when played on a Game Boy Color. Where Crystal did improve the graphics was increasing the variety of tiles used on the overworld/dungeon maps, and adding animations to individual Pokémon in battle, both of which relied on the Game Boy Color’s increased VRAM.

Cool demo, horrid UX
artnap 7 hours ago [-]
The bad UX seems to be the joke here. Making you beat a gym leader just to change a setting is the whole point, I think. Would anyone really keep this as their home screen for a month?

Not to mention you have a level 5 pikachu and are expected to defeat a level 100 mewtwo that one-shots you.
