Win12 confirmed as a Linux mint cinnamon derivative distro.
No, that would be too soon. It took them over 20 years to make a package manager, 15 years to add tabs to Windows Explorer. Maybe in 10-20 years they will do it.
sudo stop telemetry
Can’t wait for SystemD for Windows
sudo systemctl disable telemetryno
And this incident has been reported. As have all your activities, searches, sites, and keystrokes
We already had this function, they just made sudo into an alias of:
runas /user:Administrator>new
>“sudo was initially released: circa 1980”
Random sidenote, today I learned that not only does sudo have a logo, it’s in direct reference to a classic xkcd strip.
The sandwich with a face makes me feel uncomfortable for some reason
This sandwich is definitely the type of sandwich to eat humans as revenge for its kind.
Kinda wish I didn’t know it had a logo. Those eyes are staring into my soul
They’re also aknowledging that it already existed… It’s new to windows. I don’t like them either but you don’t need to actively look for shit to be upset at them over.
Doesn’t really make sense in the context of windows tbh
sudo = “superuser do”
They should have made it NT-ASdo for “NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM do”
Except it should actually be a powershell module so you have to type out the whole thing as NT-AuthoritySystem-Do
/s
Wait, is sudo pronounced su du then?
yeah but it sounds dumb so im never gonna say it correctly
But it needs to be a verb like
getsetdoDo-As “NT Authority/System”
Have to quote it in too… since there’s a space.

I am pretty sure it won’t work 100% like sudo on Unix-likes, so why didn’t they come up with different name, like
elevate? This command beingsudowill only confuse users.When searching commands now Windows garbage comes up
So it’s more to poison search results to stifle Linux adoption
I think they want to compete with GNU/Linux and attract its users. They made WSL for probably the same reason. They even have a terminal now that almost doesn’t suck.
Some quotes from Steve Jobs about Microsoft:
- The only problem with Microsoft is they just have no taste. They have absolutely no taste. And I don’t mean that in a small way, I mean that in a big way, in the sense that they don’t think of original ideas, and they don’t bring much culture into their products. --Triumph of the Nerds (1996)
- I am saddened, not by Microsoft’s success — I have no problem with their success. They’ve earned their success, for the most part. I have a problem with the fact that they just make really third-rate products. --Triumph of the Nerds (1996)
- I wish developing great products was as easy as writing a check. If that was the case, Microsoft would have great products.
Soon, some linux newbies would search for how to do something with sudo and spent an hour scratching their head trying to figure out why the command not working, only to realize they copy pasted sudo command for windows instead.
Or the other way around
