I’ve been trying to switch to Linux for 30 years now and am still trying to figure out permissions. Best of luck!

Can’t have permission issues if you 777 everything

I did that one time, it turns out that if everything is 777 major faults will occur due to security measures (see: sudo not working anymore)

Permissions is my favorite cheese. I enjoy some on my pasta dinner every night I get the chance to. Some days Im like 750 with my permission, maybe even 755 when we got guests over, but when I’m feeling hungry i bring out the 700 permission cheese

Hmm, is James Bond fully accessible to others but not himself or his family/friends?

If you figured out how logging into any site works, you can figure out permissions. Claiming that after “trying to switch” for 30 years and still are unable to figure out permissions means either you are lying or not trying to switch. And mind you not wanting to use it or not trying to switch is fine, but making mountains out of mole hills is just disingenuous.

  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.

  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can’t quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
