If your TV is on fire, call the fire department.

No. On TET, we always leave you stressing and guessing to your brains outside of your skull.

I'm not entirely sure how you would go about installing some form of ad blocker on a smart TV setup. You could try making a Pi Hole or equivalent for the entire network, but I don't believe installing that on a Fire TV is possible.

The FireTV runs on a fork of AndroidTV, if I understand correctly. There are probably adblockers out there for it, likely ports of AndroidTV adblockers, but I doubt anybody here on the forms really has much experience with this. I certainly don't. This kind of question really is best suited for google.

I've played NS on several different devices, and I actually am pretty sure that I could run it on my XBOX and Nintendo Switch. XBOX has a search engine, and there is a way to access google on switch.

That could mean I could play NS on a smart-fridge too.

You could play NS on basically any browser. I've played NS on Lynx browser before, even posted to the forums from it. The game is ancient; it makes sense that the website is simplistic enough to be compatible with even text-only CLI browsers.

If it could work on Lynx, it's not out of the realm of possibility. I think that would probably come down to more specific compatibility matters, but Lynx does have releases for DOS platforms, which includes the IBM personal computer.

You'd still need to get it online, which would be a harder task given the compatibility (assuming, of course, that they are referring to an earlier model of IBM PC).

If all worked though, you could go on NS. But, I think it would be a pain to use it; seems more like a demonstration than a use case.

I was just about to boot up NS on Lynx to show how she looks on it, because it's really not that bad (quotes on the forums are a bit annoying to read, but otherwise it's totally fine), only to get caught by the border patrol. Unfortunately, because Lynx doesn't support JS, there's no way to complete the captcha. Accessing the game was no issue, though, I haven't tried to login.
