No please don't encourage running things as root as a random troubleshooting step. Only run as root if you understand what you are doing and know what the command is going to do.

I mean, what’s the worst that could go run with running pip as root?

[-] Roxxor@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

But in order to configure you need to be root in many cases.

Is 'got root?' still a thing?

  • 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.
