It's fair to call them terrorists when they attack civilians.

And don't give me the "what about Israel" bullshit. They can be terrorists, too, it doesn't make Hamas suddenly freedom fighters for murdering children. A terrorist is a terrorist.

You'll thank yourself for it later. Things like this take a little longer up front but putting them off has a way of making you have to work around it again and again until, when you get around to correcting it, it takes far more time to undo the workarounds than it would've taken to correct it the first time.

I don't think you understand what root is. By definition it has those permissions because it's root.

If a different user doesn't exist then you obviously can't run the command as that different user. The only solution here is to create a new user account.

Also your image is improperly configured which is something you should fix first.

So I took your advice though I ended up settling on the Kobo Libra 2 and I absolutely love this thing. It has a couple hardware buttons, too. Thanks for the recommendation!

I just tell them to install 7zip. I'm not working around your inadequacy.

People tipping their doctor? I don't even pay my doctor, my insurance does that.

I get that. It's not like I'm revving my engine in residential areas, but on the interstate I'd rather be more visible and my safety is honestly more important to me than someone's ~~monetary~~ momentary annoyance.

People aren't buying automatic weapons now. You have to jump through a LOT of hoops to acquire an automatic gun, they can cost as much as $40K, and have to be manufactured before 1986. But 50 years ago they absolutely were available. They were banned in 1986.

My bike isn't rattling any mirrors around me but I do like it to have a bit of rumble. Makes me feel a bit more noticable and on a bike that's well appreciated.

Yeah it's a little steep but not entirely ridiculous.
