Question What to do with a used "stupid" TV?
We are replacing a very nice 40" SONY Bravia which is, alas, stupid, with a new smart TV. I can take it to Goodwill, I think, but would rather find another use for it. Any ideas?

You could install it on your Lanai, no worry if it was stolen.

If it has an hdmi slot it can be made very smart with an amazon fire stick and kodi program

Put it out on your curb with a "free" sign. Shouldn't take long to disappear.
Or advertise it on TOTV - "Free 40 inch TV".
There are probably lots of people who don't care if the television is smart or stupid.
