the highest end tablet is the pixel one, and its a meme
general

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
but I cannot place adverts specifically
most of the big Canadian ads are canada wide like house hippo, the molsen canadian beer adverts, the PSAs
there are region specific ones, just I can't guess what ones are off the top of my head
they don't stand out
In Lieu of an ontario specific one, here is a good Canada one that is not house hippo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSmJvCWlk2s

Also don't worry, these goofy commercials still exist, this was so funny when it came out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bj9NKBDv-QI

A commercial I remember for the Wind Waker that I can't find online.
It was a dark and stormy night. A cloaked girl on a cliff starts narrating "Long ago in the land of Hyrule, a boy" something something something "to save.... me"
And it was supposed to be a super big deal that there was a Zelda game where you tried to save someone else besides Zelda.
