CH 01 · THE STORY

One afternoon, one tweet.

It started on one TV. Then other people tried it on theirs.

NEWSOCT 17 · 2:21 PM

Gathin@gathint

Vibe coded my parents' TV this afternoon! It was showing a sponsored ad before you could even get to Netflix. Gave Claude Code the model number, it found the TV on wifi, removed 25 Xiaomi packages and wrote a new launcher. Looks like an Apple TV now lol

Before: the stock home with a sponsored ad. After: the clean launcher.
