Granted, I haven't been to a buffet in over a decade. They seem to have died out entirely near me.
I would just entirely disable WiFi on the thing, but guess what? Once you set the wireless up, there's no way to erase that data from the TV again. But allowing the TV to be on the network but not on the internet allows me to use some IoT features locally, so it's an alright compromise by me for now.
I would buy a dumb TV in a heartbeat, next time I upgrade. If there's one available.
If you want to build your own engine, go ahead :)

They didn't make the CD-i games. They did license out Zelda for it, though. The CD-i is a bit of a mess. There are YouTube videos of the games, they're quite atrocious :) There's also Hotel Mario [1] and the unreleased Super Mario's Wacky Worlds [2] on the CD-i as well.

Other than that, I have:
- A RetroPie attached to my living room TV
- A Zynthian (http://zynthian.org/)
- A PiDP-11 (https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence/pidp-11)
In the past, I've played around with them, making:
- A touch-screen enabled stand-alone SunVox synth
- A home audio server attached to my stereo
- An experiment to read MIDI files from floppy disks, also attached to the stereo
I have a couple spares laying around waiting for use cases... but I'm not really antsy to get to them. I'd love to build an OTTO (https://github.com/topisani/OTTO) when it's ready for prime time. I'm also considering building some sort of portable RetroPie.
