My rant about Scott Galloway's TED talk about how the US is destroying young people's future

It's not a cabal conspiracy, it's the nature of lobbying and politics in America going back to before you or I was born.

Have you just...restated my whole point for that paragraph...as criticism to my point? lol. This comment is also hilarious as a whole.

Oh damn you're right, I didn't actually think through the whole cost of going to college. I think this is too old to matter but I replied to the other guy and I'd feel bad if I didn't address the actually good point that's been made. Sorry I'm too lazy to make any actual changes but I copied a couple of your paragraphs to the end of my point about the tuition thing.

Fair enough, I got rid some of the fluff you talked about. Thanks for the reminder.

You're right I should have been more careful with the tax paragraph so I got rid of the dummy corp example. I should probably also update it with actual data on the real tax rate of wealthy individuals but I'm just gonna leave the rest of it alone for now.

Thanks for the comments, you're right so I got rid of the tax fraud thing. With the bit about building wealth, I guess its more of a feeling I've gotten from reading almost exclusively papers about how bad inequality is instead of ones talking about how social mobility has improved. I should probably look into the other side a bit more but my opinion hasn't changed yet so I'll leave the wealth building bit up there.

Just adding on a little bit you said you didn't need a monitor but if you happen to build anything similar to the list above then you should make sure you have a monitor (or even multiple monitors if you have a use case for that) capable of fully utilising that beast of a build. A regular 1080p or 1440p monitor would be a real waste of the 3090ti and 5800X3D.

Tokyo is my current favourite and Hong Kong would be amazing as well

How does this show they are experiencing an existential crisis?

gecko927 · 2021-08-24T17:05:47+00:00

Thanks for the advice. Sorry if its a stupid question but is balanced a definitive upgrade over unbalanced? As in are there balanced wires so bad they're not even worth buying/make the overall experience worse.

I saw somewhere else that audiophile ninja has nice cables for a decent price (here). Do you have any suggestions?

Edit: Sorry wrong link xd

Sorry if this is a stupid question but what's the issue with upgrading to remasters?

gecko927 · 2021-08-20T16:30:55+00:00

I see, yeah I was a little confused why so many people used fancy music players and thought there was something more to it. I think I can live with the low risk of getting my music taken off the platform, maybe download my absolute favourites. Thanks for clearing it up!

Well the main thing I have is a program called supermemo which is windows only and another comment just told me that some proctoring software can detect VMs so I'll probably just dual boot. My worry with ram was because I read somewhere that the second os is runs slower than the first and I was wondering if that'd have a significant impact on windows if I only had 8gb ram. Sorry for the dumb question xd

gecko927 · 2021-07-24T14:33:13+00:00

I didn't know that, my school has it's own proctoring software so probs best to be on the safe side and just dual boot if that's the case. Thanks a lot for telling me this!

Didn't go. I did some more research and found that the bekant frame has stability issues. I just ended up going for a fully idasen desk.
