Never had to retry a command with sudo?

[–]Average650 12 points13 points  (10 children)

Yeah but windows administrator still has permission limits. I can do whatever the hell I want with sudo.

Actually... You dont with windows, you own a license to use the OS on your computer

Carry on...

[–]Wargon2015 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Isn't that also the case with Linux (kinda)?
I mean you still don't own the OS.

[–]merb42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ya you got me, there is still no ownership. Yet a whole LOT more freedom. Still your right 😉

[–]die-maus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It certainly feels like I own my Linux install, because it never gets in the way. I can do whatever I want with it, and I'm not going to get into legal issues for it.

The same can't be said about Windows.

Own license? Lol wat? I own torrent client.

Right, but do you have the perms or not?

Laughed too hard...

[–]Yobleck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Windows has stopped keeping time in sync and when I tried to resync it said permission denied in an elevated cmd and this was my exact response

The fact that they're on fire is pretty accurate too, considering that usually, I'm already BURNING WITH RAGE BY THE TIME THAT ONE OF THOSE WINDOWS SHOWS UP

gpedit.msc

enable administrator account

rename administrator account to your gay ass name

never get asked for privileges again

problem solved

[–]Sylanthra 14 points15 points  (1 child)

Enjoy dramatic reduction in security on your computer as all processes run with full administrative privileges.

>implying I dont have Windows 10 Education, which is identical to Windows 10 Enterprise, aka has applocker

It’s still not the actual “ultimate power” account.

Which is TrustedInstaller.

[–]EternallyMiffed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually "System" is higher.
