Out of curiosity, what would stop these unions from just striking illegally anyways? Seems like at some point, it’ll be the only way forward if these co’s keep turning to binding arbitration.

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.

I’ve got to agree with this. I love Linux and have run it on my servers for years. That said, I’ve got Mint on my laptop and tried to print an image over wifi at a friend’s place and could not for the life of me get it to print properly.

For the most part things do just work, but there are a lot more “obscure” scenarios that are handled correctly in windows but not Linux.

I also find that when things go wrong on Linux, they are harder to fix. I’ve had several times I’ve had to deal with circular dependency hell to get something to install properly. I did eventually get those problems resolved, but it was often a single person having a tangential problem that hinted me to how to solve it.

Edit: I think if your usage patterns are straight forward enough, it is by far and away the better choice. If you do the same stuff all the time, it’ll pretty much never break, which is not something I could say about windows. So for OP, it sounds like it would be a good fit.

It looks to me like the back of his chair. Ghost arm is much more entertaining, though.

Carrots help you hear better.

It’s true, but only in the dark.

Would.

Maybe I misunderstood your previous comment, because I’m not sure I understand what you’re trying to say here.

Are you saying my version of the title would have been fine without the “and” I added? I’m struggling to understand what you’re taking issue with.

You’re nitpicking. It’s not a direct quote anyways; it’s already paraphrased. They had no issue editorializing “them” to “companies”, so adding an implied “and” wouldn’t be any worse than that.

Yeah, I agree, but you still have to be able to read between the lines to grock what it’s saying. They left out the more important explicit part.

“Any federally regulated company, it’s a win for them at this point,” Boucher told Reuters in his first interview since the Thursday lockout. “This is disastrous for labour, for workers.”

That title is a bit of a misrepresentation of the union leader’s position. It should have read:

Canadian rail decision is a win for companies; disastrous for labour, and for workers, union leader says.

Hey asshats, remember when this exact thing happened in the US and the result of binding arbitration was that safety was undermined? I’ll bet the people of East Palestine remember.

Let’s not make the same mistakes. Give the teamsters their damned fatigue protections, and pay them a good living wage.

Typical Liberal L. Guess they only have morals if it costs them nothing.

This might not be am option or helpful for everyone, but I’ve moved cities since I got my current phone number. Now I know if it’s from my own area code, it’s almost certainly spam. And since pretty much everyone has country-wide free long distance calling nowadays, long distance charges don’t really matter.

The US is struggling to even maintain its democracy, and all the while, excessive wealth extraction is strangling its economy. They’re stagnating, so it’s not at all surprising that a country with 4x the population would overtake it eventually.

Sutcliffe’s shifting tone comes as he calls out both the provincial and federal governments for a lack of fair funding.

Not surprising. Ottawa is often held hostage to get the Federal government to kowtow to Provincial demands. It wouldn’t be a crazy idea to do what the US did for Washington D.C. and create an exclusive Federal jurisdiction for our capital as well.

“We are a legal family-run business.”

Just because it’s legal doesn’t mean it’s moral or that it should be happening at all. Hunting tourism is gross.

I think a blended model is a good solution. In Ontario, LCBO’s selection has gone downhill over the last 10 years. They’ve gotten complacent because they haven’t had to worry about competition. They’ve still got a huge amount of purchasing power because of the sheer volume, though, so they should be able to anchor prices against excessive profit gouging.

It’ll be harder for corner stores and boutiques to compete on price, but they’re also much more able to specialize and serve niche markets.

This is basically the same system Quebec has had for years, and it always seemed to work well there.

I hope I get internet after I die too…

That’s what he wrote, I imagine.
