Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak you actually do computer stuff

I meant beyond gaming mint
You literally use linux, perhaps not well, but that is doing computer stuff
It's frustrating to upgrade now becuase we're at the end of the current PC hardware generation, and the next gen stuff has been delayed
so much delayed that they're actually producing last-gen stuff again, just because
The one thing I have been considering is a proper tablet to use for lecturing, but the good ones are expensive
I assume you don't mean a drawing tablet Pika
One I can write on in lieu of chalkboard writing is mostly what I meant spooky
ipad/ipad mini are the only real multipurpose tablets anymore
all the android/Amazon ones are aimed at being indestructible kid toys
actual drawing tablets are good, but they have their own purpose
it (was) great for tablets
but Mint, they just don't exist
the highest end tablet is the pixel one, and its a meme
there are no FOSS consumer launchers, only professional ones for PoS terminals and the like
you can probably find something fine from a few years ago, you can get to work
but there are just no actual tablets being made with real specs
if it works well on tablets, cool
oh Mint, I hate this lmao
it's like that cord-cutter "luddite" meme phone that got made last year
Are you interested in this, mint? https://commodore.net/callback/
I can't find the exact one I saw before
I'm actually surprised how many of these there are now
Every year we'd get a new Kings Dominion commercial
so as a kid, those were the VA ones I remember most
these sorta things
they'd play these every ~3 commercials on kid channels
most of our other memorable local ones are lawfirms or plumbers
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 most of our other memorable local ones are lawfirms or plumbers
Yea I was in the car, and in NYC theres a lawyer who goes by Top Dawg Law. All his commercials are very outlandish, but I was thinking how it only really pertains to my area
Michael & Sons aired that at the superbowl
and legit, I think all of Virginia/DC cheered
no idea why they took that ad out
but that's probably the most random TV jingle that's local to VA
Empire and Stanley Steamer
we used to prank call Stanley Steamer
and would get cussed out by some woman with a thick NJ accent
Ontario in particular idk, I would recognize the ontario official jingle
