God help me from people who want to protect me from myself. First you got rid of the root login. Next you got rid of sudo. Now su doesn’t work. And now I am fully protected from myself. I can’t update my system. No at at all. Authenticate doesn’t work. I can’t download software, since I don’t have any means to authenticate. I can’t update su, which doesn’t work. The system doesn’t even come with sudo. I can’t administer my system. I can’t maintain my system. I can’t upgrade when the time comes. HAVE I ASKED YOU TO SAVE ME FROM MYSELF? WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO STOP PROTECTING ME FROM MYSELF? Just stop it! ————————— Jesse Johnson puppetistas@gmail.com
