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.

If it’s less harmful why on earth should it be regulated just as heavily? Of course I agree it shouldn’t be sold to kids, but what the EU did to vaping is a massive shit show.

I quitted smoking overnight thanks to vaping and then also stopped vaping a few years later. That was before the regulations though. I honestly don’t believe I could pull this off today with all the braindead rules and let’s not forget the massive price increase for liquids.

yup zero logic in his comment, still has 30 upvotes right now.
