What about jelly beans?

Generally speaking, male dogs tend to lift a leg to pee while the females tend to squat. It's nowhere near foolproof, of course, but you can usually say for sure that a dog is male if it's lifting a leg. That said, I know plenty of male dogs that squat, or do the "lazy lift" where you can't quite tell. So y'know...

I'm not much of a sportsball person, but I'll keep that in the back of my mind anyways! Thanks!

Okay awesome! Thank you again! One last question... Is the setup you linked possible to do from an Android phone, for at least a little while? It'll take a few months before I can pick up the Onn device, and brain demands this now, knowing there's a way forward lol

Okay, awesome! I'll look into this further! Thanks!

I don't have an iPhone, or any other Apple devices aside from the two TV boxes, unfortunately. This house is a purely Linux/Android house lol That said, I definitely appreciate all this info, and may go digging for an android alternative, so this gives me an idea of what direction I can go in!

Awesome! Thank you for this! I only have a basic understanding of how IPTV even works, so the explanation even on its own is useful AF and gives me some avenues

Awesome suggestion! Only issue is... The gen 3 doesn't have any app store or way (that I know of) of downloading anything new to the device. It's kinda gotta go through some hacky method like hijacking existing apps on the system :/

Edit: unless you're referring to something like the other guy that mentioned jellyfin is talking about? (Sorry, I just woke up, I'm kinda stupid rn lol)

No, Canadian companies pull the same bullshit too. Consumer protection laws are little more than "agreements" that many companies are directly pulling out of. In particular with grocery stores, if Galen Weston (the owner of the largest family of grocery chains in the country) wants it, it happens. Look into the bread price fixing situation from a few years back. Nothing actually came of it on a legal front, aside from metaphorically smacking the companies on the nose with a rolled up newspaper and being told they're being bad.

 

I recently picked up a couple of Apple TV gen 3.1, and discovered you can't do a whole lot with them aside from cast from your phone these days. I can't solder for shit, so jailbreaks are out of the question for me, sadly. In the process of researching all this, however, I found a GitHub that will help you hijack the Redbull TV app that comes pre-installed to run IPTV through it. Anyone know of anything good I can look into further? I'm on disability and life is expensive 😭
