      Like I said before I’m not against it. Give more hands out is what I am saying. We are ignoring a selection of the population that have already spent thousands of dollars on degrees that people now are going to be getting for Atleast 10k less and who knows what will happen in the future. Why do the people who already put into the system not get there money back? Especially from state institutions

      The reality is higher education is treated as a business in America as opposed to an investment in future generations.  When theres an entire class of assets backed by outstanding student loan balances(SLABS) it's not hard to see why there's incentive to pressure young people to go to college. To wipe out all student loans or refund past payments (pre 2020) would be a total collapse of these kind of assets which would never happen.

      @ Airborne hes collapsing it from then forward. And they gave stimulus. It’s tax payer money anyways it would be giving people money back they already spent. True it would collapse the system but money is an idea since 1971 and what the fuck is inflation in this administration. It’s completely possible right now if you truly look at it

  4. I honestly would probably go with a Windows device. The new Apple chips are pretty nifty but not worth adopting right now. Depending on what the future is like it might become pretty feasible to use an external gpu if you need a mobile gaming device but right now you should bring your PC and a nice laptop to school. Not sure what software you use so not sure the hardware specs you need but if I was in the market right now, I would prioritize a higher end device with a premium build quality such as a Dell XPS or Lenovo X1 Carbon. Either 13 or 15 inch models, go to best buy or something to physically see how big they are and see if you hands fit comfortably on the keyboard. If you do want to say fuck and go with an M2 air, double check how you would need to run the software. Just because it runs on MacOS on Intel cpus doesn't mean it will run well or at on arm cpus through the necessary compatibility layers. Also depending on the laptop you can upgrade the RAM or SSD for a quick upgrade if you need it down the line unless its a SOC like the M2 Air or other Apple Silicon. Some Windows laptops do have soldered memory as well but that varies.
  5. Depends on what you want to do tbh. Not an apple fanboy at all but apple silicon allows for a great performance to battery life ratio but due to the different cpu architechure there is not a lot of native compatability and you need to use some kind of emulation layer for a lot of popular software. You should be fine as long as you don't need a super specific set of software for your classes it wouldn't be the worst option. Especially if you are already invested into the Apple Ecosystem (iPhone etc.). Windows laptop wise, the Dell XPS Series 13 and 15 inch laptops have a pretty similar build quality to Apple's Macbooks and can get some pretty alright specs for some reasonable-ish prices. The 15 inch XPS laptops have a dedicated GPU but look like a professional laptop so its not bad for bringing to class with some light occasional gaming. Not the best for temps while playing games for a while from my experience. (I have the 2018 15-inch model that w the i7-8750h, 16gb of ram, 1050ti and 1 tb ssd.) The XPS 13 Plus is a pretty interesting new design as well. This video would probably be the best to point you in the right direction. Obviously try to figure out what you want then look more into it. I would recommend not buying a gaming laptop and just bringing your PC provided that theres room on your desk for your setup. No one is gonna care if you have people in your dorm, its pretty normal from my experience but I did go to a stem-focused school so your mileage may vary. Was not a big deal to bring the pc back for holidays. Left it in the dorm for stuff like Thankgiving but would take it with me for like Christmas and shit. If you are a CS or IT major make sure to get something that doesn't have weird hardware that has shitty Linux support.
