Username is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

The explanation is most likely incorrect though. A more obvious cause of this error is that the current working is the root directory (/) and that they’re logged in as a non-root user, thus trying to create the file /woman without sufficient permissions.

There are other directories where it can happen, and root is not the only one of them.

There are also directories that you cannot read sometimes, like /var/lib/docker/volumes if you use docker

[-] angel@iusearchlinux.fyi 5 points 1 year ago

Sure, but in this case the bash prompt tells us that it’s located in the root directory.

[-] seliaste@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Oh, silly me :3

Technically he is also wrong about what touch does. The purpose of touch is to update the timestamp of a file and only if the file doesn't exist, the file gets created.

[-] 098qwelkjzxc@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

when you tell a stackoverflow user to touch grass

[-] SzethFriendOfNimi@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Why would you tell somebody to do that? What year is this?

You’re not actually use the grass framework in production right now are you?

Obviously you should have migrated to meadows by now.

[-] Presi300@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Or in other words, sudo touch woman

[-] archonet@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I believe they've got laws against that nowadays. Not that that stops many, but you know.

I would have guessed you don't have permissions on the directory to create the file.

Btw, sudo is fine for server administration but imo too big and troublesome for desktop use. There are tools with fewer than 150 lines of code doing what you use sudo for on desktop.

[-] GoosLife@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

What tools do you recommend for Linux desktop use?

[-] Dohnakun@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Currently, i use rdo and ssu. But both have their shortcomings: rdo doesn't always get, that you typed the pw just a minute ago. While ssu doesn't need your pw, but it has awkward parameter handling and was made for file editing, doesn't work with some tools like pikaur/yay. I know there's more such tools, 1000 lines of code would still be preferable over full-blown sudo/doas. But maybe i make a mix of ssu' passwd handling and rdo' capabilities myself.

Doesn't work since the woman in his home has higher priveleges than him. ;)

sigh

you unironically type sigh

[-] Diabolo96@lemmy.fmhy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

So touch is like a spell that can create and transforme anything to pure matter essence that you can then shape as you will with further spells ? That of course unless the thing you try to transform is a higher being ? "Root" is the ultimate devine incontation that grant it's user god like powers.

Hey @mitty. I should've grabbed that account for her. I'm dumb lol, enjoy it.

[-] Mitty@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Figured I’d take advantage of what names I could get while the site is fresh. Besides, protecting mitty is one of my life goals. Gotta make sure she stays safe. Never know who else is out there replicating bonedad.

[-] Seven@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I would expect Mitty to get a cool username of her own unlike me, lol. If she wants it, than please let her have it lol

[-] Mitty@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Good thing I am the real Mitty.

[-] Seven@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

I shall see it with my eyes later.
