This seems as good a place as any to ask this. I'm planning on purchasing a large TV to watch the sports this upcoming Second Wave. I've got a pretty large space to fill in the back wall of my living room so we're looking 50 inches+. Mainly what I'm wondering about is what would be the best way to get my Hulu Cable from my new Macbook on there. Am I looking at a Chromecast type setup or is there some other sort of technology I would need?
I realize I can research this on my own but I'm curious what if anything works for y'all as I've never been anything close to a tech guy and I haven't bought a TV since my freshman year of college.

Lots of TVs also come with streaming apps built in. My Vizio that I bought last year has most everything on it (Hulu, Netflix, Amazon, Disney +, Plex, etc)

We also have a chromecast for other stuff, but the TV works really well for apps. We have a Samsung, fwiw. |

I went ham and bought a bunch of upgrades for my 3D printer today. I got a glass bed, all-metal extruder and hotend, and even a whole new computer board for it. I had already ordered a bunch of finishing supplies. I have now spent almost as much as the base product itself. Oops. It's gonna be sweet, though!

I ran out of quarters to do laundry so I resorted to buying a coin key for the washer dryer unit in my building.

Okay, fine. I ordered the "Wish" Broken tee because I thought it would be nice to wear around the election.

It's pay day and shit's on sale. I got an auto bed-leveling sensor, a touchscreen and quieter fans for my 3D printer. It will be a beast! Oh, but the stupidest thing... I actually ordered another 3D printer a few days ago.  ...but there's an 8 week wait for it.  |
