You can use the Smart remote which is basically the fusion of a wiimote, a tv remote and a computer mouse

I tried googling some of this but I must be misunderstanding the thread, mind ELI5 for the rest of us? ^_^'

OK.

So, you know of android rooting?

(I'm assuming no)

Android rooting is the action of getting superuser prileveges on an android device, which lets you do literally anything. From removing bloat, to overclocking, it gives you full power over the device.

Keep in mind that "with great power comes great responsibility." -the sudo command on first use

Well, it's that, but for TVs.

As for the remote, how you move the cursor is wii-like, and you can click the [OK] button to click stuff. You can also scroll, because the [OK] button is also a scroll wheel.

What I meant is I tried to Google homebrew smart remote and found nothing. I do have understanding of the concepts and was looking for the specifics :)

[–] somerandomperson@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 months ago

nope, you ain't rooting with just a fucking tv remote

(you do need to know how to ssh tho...)

15 years ago a pirate decided to name the main channel on the Nintendo Wii for homebrew the "Homebrew Channel", as it has been for 15 years.

That was my reference. If you found a hacked Wii right now and turned it on, it would be one of the channels available.
