You can have a smart tv and not connect it to the internet or lan. My workaround was to attach a computer and use the tv as a monitor.

That can be solved by connecting a computer to the tv via hdmi. My main tv has a computer that connects is jellyfin to my home server than runs radarr, sonarr and lidarr. I have not seen a commercial in years!

You may have to experiment a bit with your first couple if batches, as the end results can vary depending on the quality/type of filters, and the strength of your preferred coffee. Add or subtract coffee from your batches until you get your desired strength.
