So you think a person that would turn off UAC wouldn’t just put NOPASSWD in the sudoers? I doubt that. And even if they had to enter their pwd… Wouldn’t that just be annoying for the casual user instead of increasing security? I doubt they would be like “Oh I have to enter my pwd now, that really makes me think twice about whatever I was going to do with sudo.”

Honestly I don’t think it’s that bad. I have to use sudo just as often on linux as I have to accept the elevation box on win. Win11 has some serious issues but UAC is harmless.

Fair enough but then you shouldn’t complain about the lack of confirmation (like the meme does)

Yeah maybe, but if that exact same people would use linux they would sudo or 777 everything which wouldn’t be much better security wise

It’s not like I want to defend windows, but If it needs admin permission you usually can’t start it without confirmation.

I’m neither a systemd fan nor a hater, but in my experience not even enterprise linux distributors can get it to work correctly all the time. That tells me that maybe it is too complicated.

If they are 100% transparent in regard to where the money goes, I’m in. The problem with something like youtube premium is not that it’s unaffordable to the majority of users. It’s that at this point you have to assume that they don’t need the subscription fee to cover their costs, but to shove that money up some CEOs or shareholders asses. Yeah that’s not gonna happen unless they force me to and even then I’d think twice about if I really need that service.

Not a single vote for dark souls 3 or bloodborne? barbaric!

you can block communities in your settings but I kinda agree you should also be able to block whole instances as a user
