# Stadia on the Mac works best when AirDrop is disabled and AWDL is disabled as well. Heres a script that disalbes the settings (so you don't have to use an app) and another one that will reenable the settings. 
# This script should be run with sudo permissions
# There's a fair bit in here that could be considered overkill and it will change system settings.
# If you have any of these values managed via JAMF or have a config manager that manages these settings, this script probably won't change the settings or if it does change settings, they will be reverted after a reboot.
# There's probably a better way to do this.
