Windows dropped new feature called "sudo"

sudo systemctl disable telemetry

This incident will be reported

This meme makes a lot more sense if you don't cover up the faces

This has put me in mind of when OSX added virtual desktops. Everyone forgot that they've been a thing in *nix for 30 years, and NextOS (which OSX was built on top of) already had them. So Apple purposefully removed them, let people complain about not having them (and build their own 3rd party solutions) for something like 8 years, then got mountains of positive press for the "new innovation" of virtual desktops. Isn't Apple amazing!

Great job Microsoft! I'm sure this is a game changer for the world.

• Tabs in the file manager

• Straight up using the KDE motto

Are they actually naming the command "sudo" or is that just a comparison?

Edit: apparently yes, the audacity lol

Don't forget all the UI/UX they've been copying from KDE. Working at Microsoft must be such an easy job when the open source community does all your work for you.

Microsoft linux when?

sudo rm -rf C:/

People are laughing, but it is annoying to open a Windows terminal, get a couple of steps into whatever you were doing, and find you need admin privileges for some bullshit.

Pressing up, home, "sudo " and enter is a lot quicker than opening a new command prompt in admin mode.

I can't wait for their version to be totally broken compared to normal sudo on windows

I'm glad they're teaching they're user base linux, will make transitioning easier

I'll take it.

Do they finally have an ls in the default path, or do I still need to alias that?

don't frogette about the new windows terminal

Actually, you do... does it have higher authority than TrustedInstaller or SYSTEM?

sudo can only be elevated via the User Account Control (UAC) security feature designed to protect the operating system from unauthorized changes using verification prompt.

lmao

Now get rid of those silly back slashes in paths, use bash as a non mentally deficient shell, change that sad kernel to Linux 6.8 and up, change your laughably sad NTFS to something sane, anything, even ext3 would do but take ext4, get rid of your ridiculous drive letters and instead of copying KDE, why don't you just switch to KDE on X or Wayland?

Do all that and make it open and free, like all other actual operating systems and we'll talk

only through private ownership of property and capitalist competition can good ideas emerge and be adopted

Where’s my sandwich?

To drop a feature means to get rid of it. Words have meaning, guys

Write FOSS next, quickly!!!

Press WinKey+Ctrl+D, then WinKey+Ctrl+(←or→). Windows already has multiple desktops.

I discovered winget (command in PowerShell) a couple of years ago, it's pretty cool

Gsudo existed before

sudo can only be elevated via the User Account Control (UAC) security feature designed to protect the operating system from unauthorized changes using verification prompt.

Doesn't that defeat the entire fucking purpose of sudo?
