Doesn't really make sense in the context of windows tbh

sudo = "superuser do"

They should have made it NT-ASdo for "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM do"

Except it should actually be a powershell module so you have to type out the whole thing as NT-AuthoritySystem-Do

^/s^

[-] DmMacniel@feddit.de 15 points 9 months ago

But it needs to be a verb like get set do

[-] Saik0Shinigami@lemmy.saik0.com 19 points 9 months ago

Do-As "NT Authority/System"

Have to quote it in too... since there's a space.

[-] laurelraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 9 months ago

Probably something more like "Invoke-Command -AsAdmin"

Which would be aliased to sudo

[-] groet@feddit.de 2 points 9 months ago

That's what I wxpect. But with one more layer. In the end it's going to be system32/elevator.exe which is called by Invoke-Elevation in ps which is aliased to sudo.

It's supposed to be available in cmd and batch so it must be callable directly

[-] laurelraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 9 months ago

I was more postulating what they probably would do if it were implemented directly in PowerShell

But, as it turns out, it's just sudo.exe in the command path

Wait, is sudo pronounced su du then?

[-] Jeom@lemmy.world 22 points 9 months ago

yeah but it sounds dumb so im never gonna say it correctly

[-] Chriswild@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago

Sounds like Scooby Doo's lost cousin Sue Doo

[-] Floshie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 9 months ago

Gonna pronounce it all the way like a french for the rest of my life

[-] TheOctonaut@mander.xyz 17 points 9 months ago

Always has been

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 9 months ago

no, never has been. it's pronounced like pseudo.

[-] callyral@pawb.social 7 points 9 months ago

i pronounce "su du" and pseudo the same way

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 9 months ago

you anarchist!

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 7 points 9 months ago

You have a /s but I wouldn't be surprised if it had a really long syntax
