Alright man. You win.

Your troll powers are too much for me.

Lmfao. Got me there! Was that pretty confusing for you without the apostrophe?

You still haven’t made a case why any of them are ignorant. Using the word doesn’t make it so.

I have, but I’ll say it again.

It’s ignorant because the jobs that give back to humanity and pay a livable wage are hard to get. You just choose to believe that they are not.

You also seem to be willfully ignorant of what a livable wage means.

Which is why the reductio ad absurdum was mine

If this is what you were trying to do, you did a shit job. I even deconstructed it for you.

More movement of the goal posts I see… whatever happened to food and shelter?

This isn’t moving the goal posts. This is the literal definition of a livable wage.

What is your definition?

What’s your point? Why shouldn’t I generalize?

Loads of reasons, but most relevant here is that you can make some very misleading but technically true statements when you do so.

For example:

Not all homeless people are poor.

Not all doors can open.

We don’t know the financial situation of each teacher so we can only speak in general terms.

Technically true, but when we’re talking about the typical case, highlighting that there are exceptions is pointless.

The fact that teachers are underpaid is something I already addressed in the comment you responded to. So I don’t know what you’re trying to argue.

You dont? I’m trying to argue that many many teachers don’t get paid a living wage.

Are you illiterate or something?

And for the umpteenth time: it’s not about the teachers, or the nurses, or whatever job

It is though. The fact that these jobs don’t exist, or are hard to get, is what this entire conversation is about. That, and you trying to derail it to shit on me.

The premise was that the jobs were hard to find. They are not. Period.

The premise was that the jobs that are both fulfilling and pay decently were hard to get. And they are.

Period.

Assertion fallacy.

Call it VPorN

Or PN in the V

Or maybe something more discreet I guess, but that’s no fun.

I've been slow to make an upgrade, and figure what better time to switch to linux?

Did what I could to try to research that the parts were all fairly linux friendly, with a warning about the motherboard's wifi7 maybe not yet supported yet by the kernel.

Looking for a mid-high range build without going crazy on the cost. Build actually came in a bit cheaper than I expected, so feel like maybe I'm missing something here.

My monitor, which I'm planning to keep, does have G-Sync, but I don't know that I'll miss it.

PS: I know i can get more life out of my old hardware, but I want to turn that into a NAS.

EDIT: Fixed link.

Lifetime Pass Member.. just put on The Devils Advocate (1997) and got a full 30s ad.

… just paused it to verify it was actually in my library… -and got another 2 ads… what the actual fuck? Just me?

EDIT: Looking back at the app, seems I was somehow in Plex Streaming, but how it was put up above my own content I can’t understand, and the movie page does not make it obvious that’s what I’m looking at.
