I’d say that lethal force is rational when used as proportional self-defence. Or, in the words of Malcolm Reynolds, “if someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back.”
I think the Gandalf quote, however, is specifically referring to death as a punishment for “just” being a thoroughly contemptible, evil and heinous person.
“Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends. I have not much hope that Gollum can be cured before he dies, but there is a chance of it. And he is bound up with the fate of the Ring. My heart tells me that he has some part to play yet, for good or ill, before the end; and when that comes, the pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many - yours not least.”
- Gandalf, The Fellowship of the Ring
Nobara. But I’ve had them work on nobara before
Fitgirl installers just crash on me 🤷♂️
Okular, comes with Linux
I was confused by the perspective lol, didn’t realise it was a bowl on a counter
I thought that was her shit, and the title was saying, basically, “looks like she needs some medicine”. Like, yeah, i agree lmao
Who TF is still using CentOS?
Best comment ever written in the history of the internet
Not a single thing about this sounds “routine”
What the actual fuck is this paranormal shit
What assumptions did I make, and in which comment did I express upset?
I think you’re the only one here making assumptions and/or getting upset
Due to the blame being on a “Jessica”, it could be seen as a “woman bad” joke, which is a favourite of certain straight men. It’s basically a variant of the classic “women take too long to get ready” trope.
In much the way I am aware of the Windows store: I avoid it and work to get the software directly from the source.
That is not the way things work on Linux - the repos essentially are the source. It is intended for apps to be packaged and distributed through official repos precisely to avoid the issues you listed, which are more often issues of downloading from sites. Package managers take care of incompatible versions and conflicts. That’s definitely a Windows bias my friend :P
80% of the reason to move to Linux is hating Windows, so yeah
I ask this with full sincerity - are you unaware of the package manager?
I would still classify what you’re describing as proportional self defence, since punching a fascist is always self defence haha 😄
