Wait, how do you setup wireguard on a chromecast?

  He probably means google chromecast with TV.

    Yep most certainly. Those are pretty neat little devices actually. Easy to put into developer mode and you can use wireless adb to get a shell and install apps, but to me the killer feature is being able to send it "button press" commands over adb. Basically a virtual remote control from the CLI. I used this to write myself some bash functions so I can pause the chromecast from the CLI. Once connected (with for example `adb connect 192.168.1.243`), you can send a play/pause through adb with just: adb shell input keyevent KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE I can also trivially start an app like Jellyfin with: adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -n org.jellyfin.androidtv/.ui.startup.StartupActivity If it's helpful to anyone, I threw my bash functions into a gist. These were only intended for private use so don't expect it to be pretty: https://gist.github.com/FreedomBen/8ea4cd890621521fb9bb2bf36180bab0 https://gist.github.com/FreedomBen/8ea4cd890621521fb9bb2bf36... After sourcing, you can use the aliases like `adbplaypause` or call the functions directly. I normally use the aliases
