linux fags everyone
no what you do is you use 'su'
>>54662610
the fuck are you logging into to root so much for you idiot?
>>54662610
You can disable needing the password for sudo, but it basically makes having a password almost pointless.

apt-get install.
pretty much every single command i use that does anything real needs me to fucking log in as root. its so annoying.
>>54662663
You can turn that off though.
>>54662667
Which has the same effect as running everything as root.

Why would it not ask for the password to do that?!

i always turn uac off on my windows machines, but i find using sudo totally bearable
>>54662642
why are you using the command line? just use a package manager
>>54662610
>>54662642
sudo apt-get install
was that so hard faggot?
>>54662610
>>54662642
Yeah and Windows doesn't do that, right?
If you think it's too annoying then just log in as root.
I am root all the time. No problem logging in and out of silly useraccounts.

It's called basic security measure, /v/-tard
