I don’t think i need to explain how it works, should i ?
sudo systemctl disable telemetry

“What’s a re-run?!”
This meme makes a lot more sense if you don’t cover up the faces
good thing we are all memelords who know this format by heart
Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra.
Still Beans face is 99% of the reason for even using the meme. Without it the image just looks like two people sitting side by side instead of the cheating.
I’m not familiar with the meme, and it’s still obvious one is copying the other. Although, it does make it look like Linux copying Windows rather than the path that reality took.
I don’t, but I’ve seen the sauce and remember it.
Yeah you have to already know that one person is obviously looking over at the others answers.
Ah, so that’s how it makes sense!
Excuse me? This is Mr. Bean, not just some person
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.
Ah MacOS, don’t forget they’re continuing to neuter root/sudo
probably for some future goal of a walled garden desktop/laptop 🤮for “privacy and security”Apple may introduce it again, but not before they get some trademark word for it like “Secure Ascension™”.
fyi the NeXT OS is called NeXTSTEP.
Thanks.
To be honest, the first incarnation of Spaces was really damn good; they deserved some credit for that. Then they made it worse so it matches iOS.

Tabs in the file manager

Straight up using the KDE motto
Oh that second one has me in flames man

Are they actually naming the command “sudo” or is that just a comparison?
Edit: apparently yes, the audacity lol
Looks like they didn’t even tried to hide it : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/sudo/
The sudo command offers a way to quickly elevate a command as administrator from your current unelevated command line context and is familiar to some users coming from other operating systems.
From any other operating system
TempleOS doesn’t have sudo, you just need to pray for a divine intervention.
You don’t need sudo, everything is already in Ring 0 as God intended.
Should have called it addo
Or ditto
Yes
What’s wrong with giving a command the same name as the equivalent command from other operating systems?
That would be like calling the lynx command InternetExplorer
To me lynx is an application, whereas sudo is part of the OS, just like cp or cat. I know Linux sudo is maintained separately, but it’s part of what is expect in even the most minimal install of any Unix-like OS.
Okay…
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.
Not so easy. Look at how often they have to redo the startmenu.
Microsoft linux when?
Seriously. Yes.
If Microsoft doesn’t have a secret internal build of Windows that runs on a Linux Kernel, they’re out of their minds.
The Windows Kernel, as cool as it is, is 100% a cost center. If Microsoft switches (seemlessly) to a Linux kernel, no one would really notice. So at some point they should really switch it.
- they’ll have to opensource the code if they use linux kernel
- even with linux being vastly superior, it nice we have 3 major kernels with widely different approaches. it would be sad if either of these 3 dies out
- they’ll have to opensource the code if they use linux kernel
Only changes they would make to the kernel. There is no obligation to make an OS utilizing the linux kernel open source.
An oversight by the developers. Had they licensed it under the GNU GPL v3, such a thing would not be possible.
No, the GPLv3 changes nothing in this regard.
Legal question. If Windows on the linux kernal needs to open source, but that does not apply to other software it runs, right? So could they close source their DE and charge for that, or charge for the windows store?
That is correct. Microsoft could simply charge for their closed-source desktop environment or their package manager or their software environment in general, but any modifications to the kernel would need to be free and open-source (though they could still charge money for it).
thanks for the answer.
even with linux being vastly superior, it nice we have 3 major kernels with widely different approaches. it would be sad if either of these 3 dies out
Agreed. I do think at least a couple versions of the Windows NT kernel are going to live on forever in emulation, thanks to some pretty awesome games that require it.
If Microsoft switches (seemlessly) to a Linux kernel, no one would really notice.
Besides quite literally every piece of software breaking, sure.
Azure Linux exists
As far as I know, Azure runs on Linux
but seriously they should
Omg those quotes on the side lol
Some day, in cooperation with canonical and a nice KDE Theme
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.
People are laughing because it took them more than 30 years to figure that out.
I unironically have thefuck installed in a few of my more frequently logged VMs. Incredibly convenient.
I’ve been already using gsudo for that purpose
Where keys hope they support “sudo !!”
sudo rm -rf C:/
The command has a smile
C:
so you know its safe.actually, powershell also has aliases for unix-like commands, for example
rm
. iirc you needrm -Force
thodeleted by creator
I can’t wait for their version to be totally broken compared to normal sudo on windows
Where?
Where is what?
They made fun of your grammar
Thanks, I corrected my mistake
I’m glad they’re teaching they’re user base linux, will make transitioning easier
I think you’re misunderstanding their goal.
What parent is likely referencing
TBH I wonder if the current Microsoft is capable of executing that here. I don’t believe in a “changed” MS, but Linux is eating the world, and MS doesn’t really care about Windows much anymore. Azure happily runs Linux VMs
They can still take a stab at it 🤷. Why else would you actually add something like this… it makes no sense to me.
Maybe they’re slowly working toward making Windows work on the Linux kernel in order to offload maintenance costs to the open source community… 👽🛸
I’ll take it.
Do they finally have an
ls
in the default path, or do I still need to alias that?There’s an alias for it by default in PowerShell.
Better install LSD:
winget install --id=lsd-rs.lsd -e
don’t frogette about the new windows terminal
kinda sad tbh
Actually, you do… does it have higher authority than TrustedInstaller or SYSTEM?
No, just admin, which we could already do by running CMD as admin.
Then it’s fucking useless and that IS NOT sudo.
Reverse engineer denuvo and other kernel-level anti-cheat gaming software and use those methods to write a real sudo command.
It’s already been done, it’s called PowerRun.
https://www.sordum.org/9416/powerrun-v1-6-run-with-highest-privileges/
Nothing special about it, it just runs everything you load into it as TrustedInstaller or SYSTEM.
Nice. Thanks for sharing this!
I am Jack’s extremely surprised brain 🤨… I share Windows Update Blocker by the same company (well… sorta… I don’t think they’re a real company) and I constantly get backlash “it’s not open source, god knows what it’s doing in the background!”, even though I have analyzed the binary (to an extent) and never noticed anything malicious about it (and I have shared this as well with the community). BUT, I share this (also closed source) and people thank me 🤨? WTF 🤨…
