People are laughing, but it is annoying to open a Windows terminal, get a couple of steps into whatever you were doing, and find you need admin privileges for some bullshit.
Pressing up, home, "sudo " and enter is a lot quicker than opening a new command prompt in admin mode.
People are laughing because it took them more than 30 years to figure that out.
you can emulate this currently with psutils until the official sudo for windows comes out :)
also thefuck is even funner :)
I unironically have thefuck installed in a few of my more frequently logged VMs. Incredibly convenient.
I've been already using gsudo for that purpose
Where keys hope they support "sudo !!"
