I just purchased a Samsung Galaxy a9+ to replace and test out converting my family to Android in hopes of eventually cancelling all my streaming services.

But why? Converting to Android... Yuck.

At least that's what @webby tells me :rotfl: :hiding: :giggle:

Because the app I'm using for streaming doesn't work with iOS. So to save about $1000 I'm going to spend $900 on 3 devices. Lol. The 8th gen iPads are worth almost nothing now too.
 
So are you casting it to a smart TV or just running the Stremio app on the Android tables and the kids/wife watch the shows on there?
 
Did you see my message about connecting to a pc that’s running stremio? That works for iOS supposedly
I did not. I'll look for that.

No. I have the app on the tv as well. Works like any streaming app. Wife watches shows on her iPad a lot while doing stuff around the house. Kids will watch stuff on theirs during designated iPad time.
 
the a9+ i ordered off amazon was refurbished and said 1 left. after 3 days of waiting for confirmation of shipping it got cancled due to no stock. lol. but hey, at least the case arrived today. thanks amazon. so i had to suck it up and buy a new one and spend $40 more.
 
Spent 20 minutes with the a9+. So much better than the 8th gen iPad. Got stremio working quick. Son said he wanted one because of the 128gb of storage and 1 tb of additional storage.
 
Turns out the a9 doesn't like playing 4k off stremio. Kind of sucks but 1080p isn't bad. Only issue is I have to filter out the 4k links so I can't use 4k on my tv.

What's 4K? :giggle:

Rockin' 43" Samsung Plasma 720p! And a 32" Dynex LCD 1080p TV.

C/N? I'm not watching 10 minutes lol
He testified in 2018 he hadn’t done any work on making a version of fb for China. Whistleblower basically said they had been working with China for over 4yrs at that point to make a version of fb they would allow. Internal docs between zuck and engineers show they were working on it, and zuck had been going back and forth to visit Chinese leaders. Servers would have to be in China, and China would have access to those servers. Any Americans communicating with Chinese citizens allowed China to have their data as well. It goes beyond that, but that’s my short version.
 
Zuck was at the presidential inauguration in the "untouchables" section. Probably nothing will happen to him.....
 
He’s already in a legal battle trying to retain ownership of fb, instagram, & whatsApp. Gov is trying to say it’s a monopoly.
