When you nitpick grammar and spelling, you’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel.
And if you’re gonna do it, at least make sure it was actually wrong lol.
No one in this thread actually wants answers to their questions. They wanna bitch and moan. What are you thinking?
Not sure who down voted you
Anyone who thought it was kind of stupid to bring up their getting fired as if it’s a response to income statistics.
Come on back when you have some data. Byeee
That’s crazy how the post is about income vs inflation and their comment is about “economics”.
The post is about numbers. Ones which, if they told a story of doom and gloom, you’d presumably completely agree with.
This is great stuff. Thanks for taking my original comment further than I thought it would go. Truly brings me back to arguing with conservatives about COVID numbers. I’m just disappointed there’s no equivalent here for walking into a hospital demanding to see patients.
Hmmm…
Looking beyond the average, production/non-supervisory workers—roughly the bottom 82% of the wage distribution—started seeing positive real wage growth two months earlier in March 2023, now 14 months in a row (not shown).
But keep replying please because I could put your exact comments in the COVID threads I was arguing in back then. It’s uncanny. It’s the exact same shit conservatives say when data doesn’t support their preconceived idea.
This is hilarious because I’ll tell you the exact same thing I told conservatives during COVID:
I’ll take data over your anecdotes, thanks.
ITT: I haven’t personally experienced it so this is not true.
I wonder if y’all realize how like conservatives you are sometimes.
Those must be the Jewish space lasers Dipshit was talking about.
Ok I don’t actually know if you’re just joking or neurodivergent so as not to not pick up on the sarcasm.
OP can do whatever the fuck they want on their device. The worst thing that can happen if they don’t like the suggestion is to close the single extra tab they opened on their browser to read about it.
But thank Christ you were here to save him from that catastrophe.
I hate how OP is gonna have to do whatever we say :(
That really sucks. I super wish they could just go on using whatever they want :(
Buddy, I did read it. Allow me to quote in case the OP is too long for you:
I missing any key steps or tips to make the experience even better on a Surface? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
Dude is distro hopping and wants general input. Please fuck off.
It was on topic and made perfect sense. What’s funny is that it was in response to you saying”AXSHHALLY you guys shouldn’t suggest immutable distros” because those don’t count as Windows alternatives for reasons?
If you’re gonna be a prick, at least be correct.
Ahh. You’re just a prick. I get it now.
Hm… immutable distros are alternatives tho?
And did you just downvote me for politely disagreeing?
I think I disagree.
After using Bazzite, if I had to set something up for my mom, it’d be Aurora.
Updates are dead simple and most of what she would use would be flatpaks anyway.
They seem like a rock solid way to get into Linux with a low chance of breaking something.
I really wanted to like it. I’ve used ansible and puppet for work and there, declarative configuration made sense because I need to duplicate the same thing 1000’s of times.
For desktop, it was incredibly annoying to me to have to change my config file every time I wanted to install a new application. I still found myself messing with drivers which I hate on any OS.
My distro choices after Nix were meant to reduce the need to mess with drivers. Zorin and Mint have first-run installers for whatever card it detects (Nvidia for me at the time) which worked well enough.
By that point I had read about immutable distros but wasn’t sure about them just yet. Since I was on a hopping spree I decided I’d try it out.
When the Bazzite install went well and 99% of the applications I wanted to install were flatpaks anyway, it was a perfect fit. I’ve been running docker containers on my Ubuntu server for years so BoxBuddy was a natural fit for things that aren’t flatpaks (minecraft runs great in one). What’s more, KDE has a lot of keyboard combinations the same as Windows by default which made the switch even better for me. One that I had been fighting to add to gnome, which is admittedly small but annoying, the ability to use Meta+period to bring up an emoji selector, was built right into KDE by default?! I couldn’t believe it.
Then, I started looking for an equivalent to FancyZones found in Windows PowerToys and… What do you know, that’s also built into KDE by default?
Then a friend of mine gave me an AMD graphics card he was getting rid of which was an upgrade to my GTX 1060 I’ve been using since 2018. Since I had already moved to Bazzite, it was a simple re-base to move to the AMD version and it went off without a hitch.
It’s all over, Bazzite and KDE are home for me now.
Bazzite has been amazing for me.
I started with the nvidia base which I was getting some flickering on when using Wayland. Switching to x11 at the login screen resolved that for me.
I recently upgraded my GPU with an AMD card this time and re-basing was super easy. Didn’t have to reinstall any apps or mess with drivers.
This year I stopped using Windows 10. I started on NixOS, then tried Zorin, Mint, and now Bazzite. This one is it.
This also happens to be my first foray into KDE and my god I’m liking it so much better than gnome or cinnamon.
This is cool and all but the post is about wage growth in the past 12 months.
It’s like if the post said, “did you know 1+1=2?” and you came along saying, “Yeah well 2+2=4”. It’s not a counter argument to the statement in the post title. It’s another statistic altogether.
No, handwaving would be saying something like, “well I haven’t experienced this and also none of my friends have so it’s not happening”.
So, interesting stat which is relevant in a larger context but doesn’t mean the post is factually incorrect.
