gollark: irc.osmarks.net and other things (testbot knows).
gollark: I'm sure I could upload random snippets of rust code if necessary.
gollark: You should obviously join my IRC network, which has ~no drama and about 4 users.
gollark: Broadly speaking, to the best of my knowledge: TVs accept commands from remotes as modulated infrared somehow. The basic modulation stuff is fairly consistent, but not all TVs support the same set of commands. So universal remote things can work by recording the data another remote sends when you press a particular button, saving it, and replaying it when you press a button on it.
gollark: I see. Anyway, I'm personally busy for the next few days, but I can give pointers or something if you are to do it yourself.
