Your idea with either using a usb stick or use the ssd to be the installation medium is pretty much the first things i would try.
It says 4 gb is the "recommended minimum spec" for linux mint but its still pretty low. Xfce is lighter on the resources. For dual booting i have no experience on that too.
Thats... disgusting but your choice, i dont care but next time keep it by yourself. Next search for cat meat. There is definitly someone selling that. ( or even human meat in the darknet ), good google search.
Its a reason of what is okay for you or not. But to straight telling anyone who eats meat is subhuman is nearly unbearable annoying of you.
Just for your next conversation(s) keep what you by yourself.
Here for your contribution to this conversation a duckass:
I have a bunch of cats I feed vegan diets to, but to anyone concerned that I’m doing animal abuse, don’t worry - occasionally, I wring one of their necks and chop it up to feed to the others, so clearly I’m not abusing them.
Thats canibalism if you would do that. And already reading that gives me some worries how you would treat your cats.
I don’t have any cats or other pets
Huh didnt you beginn the whole comment by telling you "have bunch of cats"?
And this comment is just a "Not my opinion = Bad" vibe. I think you are just here to rant about how bad other (non-vegan) people are and make everyone feel like they are lower than you.
You summarized it perfectly. We do not force you to stay here. You can still access your communities on LW if you still want some of them and it relieves us from stress of beeing "literally reddit 2.0" because we are literally so big that every small move a huge wave of backlash is always incomming even from non LW users.
As we are the biggest instance we are a big target for trolls, bots and legal vultures.
No, as we humans are omnivores. We can digest non animal fats and dont need directly a heck load of chemicals injected into a block of soy beans paste.
Additionally WE can make that choice but cats that are obligatory carnivore would never choose vegan as they are obligated to do so.
