Yeah you have to already know that one person is obviously looking over at the others answers.

This has put me in mind of when OSX added virtual desktops. Everyone forgot that they've been a thing in *nix for 30 years, and NextOS (which OSX was built on top of) already had them. So Apple purposefully removed them, let people complain about not having them (and build their own 3rd party solutions) for something like 8 years, then got mountains of positive press for the "new innovation" of virtual desktops. Isn't Apple amazing!

Great job Microsoft! I'm sure this is a game changer for the world.

Ah MacOS, don't forget they're continuing to neuter root/sudo ~~probably for some future goal of a walled garden desktop/laptop 🤮~~ for "privacy and security"

[-] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 22 points 8 months ago

Apple may introduce it again, but not before they get some trademark word for it like "Secure Ascension(TM)".

fyi the NeXT OS is called NeXTSTEP.

To be honest, the first incarnation of Spaces was really damn good; they deserved some credit for that. Then they made it worse so it matches iOS.

Are they actually naming the command "sudo" or is that just a comparison?

Edit: apparently yes, the audacity lol

The sudo command offers a way to quickly elevate a command as administrator from your current unelevated command line context and is familiar to some users coming from other operating systems.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 20 points 8 months ago

From any other operating system

[-] guiguinofake@sh.itjust.works 24 points 8 months ago

TempleOS doesn't have sudo, you just need to pray for a divine intervention.

[-] sata_andagi@sopuli.xyz 18 points 8 months ago

You don't need sudo, everything is already in Ring 0 as God intended.

Don't forget all the UI/UX they've been copying from KDE. Working at Microsoft must be such an easy job when the open source community does all your work for you.

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 14 points 8 months ago

A problem I have with the GPL is it allows corporations and shareholders to use software for free. I would be interested in licensing software I make for commercial use by sole proprietors and other small businesses for free, but charge truly offensive prices to entities that have "investors." Like, Bob's wood shop, where Bob, his son Rob, and Rob's friend from high school Jimmy make butcher block counter tops? They can use my software for free. Microsoft? $600 trillion per seat per minute.

Seriously. Yes.

If Microsoft doesn't have a secret internal build of Windows that runs on a Linux Kernel, they're out of their minds.

The Windows Kernel, as cool as it is, is 100% a cost center. If Microsoft switches (seemlessly) to a Linux kernel, no one would really notice. So at some point they should really switch it.

[-] duck1e@lemmy.ml 20 points 8 months ago
  1. they'll have to opensource the code if they use linux kernel
  2. even with linux being vastly superior, it nice we have 3 major kernels with widely different approaches. it would be sad if either of these 3 dies out
[-] _cnt0@sh.itjust.works 14 points 8 months ago
  1. they'll have to opensource the code if they use linux kernel

Only changes they would make to the kernel. There is no obligation to make an OS utilizing the linux kernel open source.

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.

[-] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 9 points 8 months ago

People are laughing because it took them more than 30 years to figure that out.

I'll take it.

Do they finally have an ls in the default path, or do I still need to alias that?

[-] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 25 points 8 months ago

There's an alias for it by default in PowerShell.

Actually, you do... does it have higher authority than TrustedInstaller or SYSTEM?

[-] eatham@aussie.zone 9 points 8 months ago

No, just admin, which we could already do by running CMD as admin.

sudo can only be elevated via the User Account Control (UAC) security feature designed to protect the operating system from unauthorized changes using verification prompt.

lmao

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 10 points 8 months ago

Now get rid of those silly back slashes in paths, use bash as a non mentally deficient shell, change that sad kernel to Linux 6.8 and up, change your laughably sad NTFS to something sane, anything, even ext3 would do but take ext4, get rid of your ridiculous drive letters and instead of copying KDE, why don't you just switch to KDE on X or Wayland?

Do all that and make it open and free, like all other actual operating systems and we'll talk
