Somehow it seemed to actually work

Tell that to East Palestine. Train derailments are on the rise because of lax safety measures, and this was one of the issues that the workers were trying to resolve. Instead Biden had congress force them back to work.

Nova is great, but you have to turn off auto-updates and use version 7.0.57 which is the last version before the rug pull.

Virtual Network Computing. It's basically an alternative to remote desktop.

I'd imagine you could run a VNC server, and then just login from the same PC. This kinda what you're looking for?

There are some limitations, like I don't think hardware acceleration would work, for example.

Edit: I did a little searching for "nested x-session" and found out that there is a specific x11 program to do exactly what you want called xephyr. There's also a brief guide on the arch wiki.

Right? I don't think satire pointing out how utterly fucking ridiculous the cat eating allegations are is being part of the problem. This almost seems like "won't someone appease the racists by not making fun of them?"

Yeah. As much as I dislike dogmatism, and vegans eating bivalves bothers me very little, I think there is an actual slippery slope issue here. If you accept that maybe some animals are OK to consume, how and where do you then set an arbitrary line?

This isn't quite as black and white as you make it out to be. Severity is an issue here. If you apply the same concept to human life, a similar argument would quickly fall apart. (Oh it was just one human life, so it's OK, you don't kill anyone 99.9999% of the time.)

I personally think that whom you kill and for what reason matters greatly. If you accidentally step on a bug, that's not the same as intentionally killing a rodent, which is not the same as intentionally torturing monkey. Just how killing in humans, intent and state of mind matters, so it does with animals.

I'm not saying that your conclusion is wrong, by the way, just that the reasoning by which you've arrived at it is suspect.

Honestly, bivalves were the last thing I gave up before becoming fully vegan, even after dairy and eggs, mainly, as you've pointed out, due to their very simple CNS. I found the "we don't know yet, and it's better to be safe" argument, as well as the fear of being purity checked by other vegans, convincing enough to stop eating them. Being vegan already makes you a bit of a social pariah, so I don't need the trouble from both sides.

However, I personally believe that sentience and consciousness exist on a spectrum which is also roughly correlated to CNS complexity. That spectrum dictates how much a living thing is capable of suffering, and hence how much moral consideration they should be afforded.

"Vegans" eating bivalves is so incredibly low on my list of things I care about, it might as well be nonexistent. Let anyone who only eats produce from a veganic farm throw the first insult.

I wonder if that's because most of its value is predicated on him being able to gain an unfair advantage due to his potential position in office.

If so, then this is probably a more accurate indicator of his chances in the election than any pollsters.

When you surround yourself with sycophants, of course nobody will tell you when you fuck up. People who can't accept criticism always end up in a bubble of unreality that'll grow and grow until it pops.

Would you rather take on 30 otter-sized horses, or one horse-sized otter?
