Fuck my prior preparation day with the Chromecast with Google TV before the hotel checking....

I don't travel too often so my Chromecast needed some tweaking (AKA updating system and apps etc), I like to take it as a travel companion and found out this shitty frame around the TV.

It is the first time it happened to me, I can see this being annoying for frequent travelers.

I usually take mounted tvs off the mount in hotels to plug in my Chromecast w/Google tv, but this one looks tough!

I don't think it is possible to achieve this without proper tools 😂

I don't understand the rational

Sometimes I don't either...

Maybe it makes it harder to steal the tv.

Couldn't they just anchor it to the wall?

A lot of good hotels have Chromecast built in to their TV system these days. I know Hyatt and Disneyland hotels definitely do, and I think a few of the other large chains have it too.

That's not even that bad sometimes the remote is locked to basic functions so even if you could access the HDMI you might no be able to switch to it.
