What gives me real power is sudo.

I totally dare you to install Arch without ever creating another account. Just reboot as root and use the computer as root forever. Despite all the warnings against it.

Bro you should have seen how i had lubuntu set up for a plex server on an old laptop. Basically everything had administrator level read and write privileges because I couldn't figure out how to get it to work any other way lol.

It's the only way to do it. One shouldn't try to learn. Just embrace security threats. Coexist with nature.
