I was planning to give away my old, 'dumb' TV until a $35 streaming device brought it back from the dead
device revived an old TV I was planning to give away.
In the era of smart TVs and streaming devices, it's hard to remember a time when not everything had an instant connection to Netflix. I got a 32-inch Sony TV as a Christmas gift in 2014, right before I moved into my first solo apartment. It was perfect for my needs at the time: it fit on my mantle, it had an HDMI port that allowed me to connect my laptop to play movies once in a while, and it sounded pretty good in my small, one-bedroom place.
At this point, I was ready to hand off my old TV to any friend who wanted it, or put it by the curb and hope it ended up in a good home. But then I remembered I had an extra Chromecast dongle lying around — the perks of being a former tech reviewer — and decided to give it a shot.
