sudo or equivalent has been around for quite a long time now.
- gjsman-1000 10mo agoYou think regular people can be trusted with sudo? (Absolutely not.)
- array_key_first 10mo agoYes. It's their computer. We don't need to hand-hold grown adults, that's how we develop computer-illiteracy. Nobody knows how to do anything because nobody lets them.

- PearlRiver 10mo agoThis is an interesting question. I started using computers in the late 90s when there were no guardrails and everything was permitted so I know what I am doing- or at the very least only blame myself if I fuck it up. But your average 20 year old who only knows an iPhone would be out of his/her depth quickly. Computers are no longer made for me.
