My kids constantly lose the controller to the tv, so I hooked up a smart outlet and echo dot to be able to turn on TV with my voice. The TV turns on because of “power-on from powerloss” settings most TVs have or default to. The Roku automatically pauses any show when the HDMI goes dormant and plays it when TV comes back.
I also scrape the NASA astronomical pic of the day, I think they have an API now, and save the photo in a background images folder, the desktop background is automatically rotated every 30 minutes pointing at that folder for source.
