Use Sudo -i instead. Sudo su is like cat file | grep pattern vs grep pattern file. You’re wasting resources.
I’m in jail because I was not in the sudoer file
This incident was, in fact, reported.
Well, you were warned 🤷.
then at first day of work:
just use sudo su, we don’t have all day here.
And you give them the look and they shut up.
“You’re absolutely right, we wouldn’t want to take too long to break the network or open god rights vulnerabilities”
sudo steam
Reminds me of all of those vendors that require Windows Admin for no reason.
Looking at you quickbooks network shares…
Its not like QuickBooks are sensitive data or anything
More like I come in to fix someone’s aging infrastructure and find a QuickBooks share with read/write everyone because people are too lazy to RTFM.
That’s the supported configuration. There support will not support anything else. It is total BS which makes sense because they want to silo you to the cloud
Then encrypt it…
Tell that to Intuit

Sometimes your package manager asks you for root password every minute while doing few hours long update and cancelling process if you don’t enter anything for few minutes, “yay” aur manager looking at you, and you got to do other things than sit and look in the monitor all day long, things like cleaning house or touching grass for example
sudo visudo
At the end:
Defaults:USER timestamp_timeout=30
USER is obviously changed to your username.
Thank you
If I remember correctly the default sudo timeout is set to 5 minutes on Yay, you should be able to increase it to something more reasonable
Thank you

Man if only there was an option like --sudoloop to ensure that doesn’t happen
See, this is why I love xbps. Does everything in one blow, no bullshit.
chmod 777 /directory go brrrrrrrrrrrr
You mean sudo chmod -R 777 /that/path/I’m/trying/to/share ?
Ya probably. I’m dumb enough to type that in and just see what happens 😎
I’m partial to sudo bash myself 👌
Our crappy vendor software will only function if IPv6 is disabled network wide. Even if one machine has it enabled, the whole thing breaks
Lol our former crappy vendor solution required to be run directly from AD Administrator. Pure luck the entire business didn’t collapse before we replaced it.
A thread I read a long time ago on r/sysadmin
That’s at least once a week
Why does
sudo su
exist?sudo -i
does exactly what you want.It’s much easier to type sudo su 😅
Reminds me of software saying to put your docker socket into the docker container you are starting for convenience.
Oh yeah, I’m docking the shit ot of that container!
sudo !!
:p
sudo -i ?
Wasn’t it 2017 where they had the race condition in
sudo su
as the command elevates up to root and drops back down?Every other year,
sudo su
was not unsafe but merely ghetto. ‘sudo su’ is the dutch-rudder of ‘sudo’.sudo su -c “man man”
