How else will the OS know I’m serious ?
Y’er a root, Harry!!
But rm -fr / * seems not to work for removing the French language pack. Can someone confirm if it works with sudo?
Works fine with sudo, removes all the French bloat.
I see French bloated my system to the fullest!
Glad you fixed it. Don’t forget to reboot.
sudo claude just fuck my shit upYeah I only use sudo once, for the su.
… but why? “sudo -i” is a thing. Why get another program involved?
Personally it’s because my fingers are already on “s” and “u”.
Some people just want to watch the world burn.
Some people think before they type. They also do not think mindlessly typing “sudo” before every fucking line in bash is a valid substitute for knowing what they do. Many of them have been doing so for decades on HPUX, Solaris, BSDs and IRIX on their own and other people’s/companies machines, not just on their single bedroom machine.
I don’t think many people know about this feature
It’s easier to just call su once and run every single command as root rather than having to randomly use sudo for some commands and not for others (/s if it’s not obvious)
But you can do that without involving ‘su’.
I don’t use sudo.
Ever.
It’s disabled by default in slackware, and I don’t know why it’s even there.Tell me how you can run rm rf / no preserve root without su, I’m waiting.
Is this some kind of joke going over my head or something?
Run “sudo -i” then run “rm -rf --no-preserve-root”
I mean, yeah, it’s your computer. Just login on the root account, nothing bad ever comes of that, not even once, nope.
Oh, you mean better use doas everywhere? Got it.
Shut the front door!
In a lot of situations it’s actually bad to use sudo because it can impact settings that make programs or file ownership go to root instead of the user.
sudo -i -u user -s /usr/bin/bashmakepkg won’t even run as root iirc
What if I told you I sudo as root
sudo bash
sudo -i
ooo what’s that one do?
Starts an interactive session as root (or another user when combined with -u)
It provides a login shell - like
su -So you get the full environment from that user
…Yes, I know.
Gives you a shell where you basically are sudo for every command.
sudo -istarts a login shell as the specified user. Login shell means it’ll read that user’s bashrc/zshrc/whatever other login files and apply those. If no user is specified, then it’ll login as root, so you get a root shell
sudon’t tell me what to do
Pfft. Real men always log in as root.
If you’re using sudo for Rm -r / You’re doing it wrong
Right. Just put sudo su in your terminal on boot, and you’re set.
