A little tip that i didn't know a few months ago... If you type a command like "cd /etc/sudoers.d/" and press enter but you forgot about sudo... You can type "sudo !!" press enter and !! replace the last typed command... hope it helps someone!

There are quite a few other history substitutions, e.g. “!!” to substitute the last command “!«n»” to substitute command number «n» from your history “!«prefix»” to substitute the last command beginning with “«prefix»” “!?«substr»?” to substitute the last command containing “«substr»”.

I swear, so often, when I first started my linux journey, I would run across a topic that was part of some community debate. Like Sudo vs Su, and I would not know it was an update, and I would just hear someones aggressive opinion about sudo, and how bad it is. So while using ubuntu, I would feel like a inferior user. But now in the last years, I've heard more of the debate, and now I feel like the whole "debates" that occur in linux can be an issue for new users. It's hard to know who to listen to. SO far, your channel has been often helpful, and thank you for that :)

On Debian you gotta install it yourself I've found, also on Debian running "su" doesn't set your path right, so you can't run usermod. You have to enter "su -" instead and then you can run usermod as root. I'm not sure if this would be a lil lesson, and more of a longer one, but what about a video on apt and dpkg. And how to fix issues like "broken dependencies" and things like that. How to force specific versions of programs or how to package and install a program compiled from source into a .deb file potentially using checkinstall.

3:13 The key difference between “su” and “sudo”, as far as I’m concerned, is that “su” prompts for the root password, while “sudo” prompts for _your_ password. “su” lets you become any user for which you know the password, not just root. It also allows the root user to become any user without knowing their password. “sudo” gives you more fine-grained control over what users are allowed to do. Many admins prefer it because it doesn’t require the root user to have a valid password. Linux _faux pas_ I see too often: people using sudo to run su. Tisk.

Because I have real hardware it should be more like real world experience, except for the internet as the best I can get right now is 15MB per second, there is also still a dial up that I can use. As far as the terminal I started with dos and win 3.1 and wrote subroutines in basic. your videos will be a great help to get started.

You should do a video on the sudoedit command, which is a much better and secure way to edit files as root. You probably should also make a point to mention that editing the sudoer files should be done via the visudo command and not your text editor of choice. visudo is designed to help make sure you don't do something wrong and basically remove all root level privileges from everyone, including the root account (don't ask me how I know this, that was a very bad day for me, and I'd rather not talk about it :D ).

Always loved to mess around with the different distros, this was 10+ years ago so I don't remember exactly all of them, they where customized by the organization that gave away those laptops. Now I use windows in my personal and work environment (I'm an analyst) But I'm looking for a distro to change to, Linux is fun :) thank you for your videos!

If you know what you're doing with a root user and are the only user on the machine, I think that's just fine! I figure the audience for "let's learn X" is one that is new- new users are less likely to know that stuff. Plus, in corporate systems, there's typically a group of users with assorted extra privileges, and sudo makes that pretty easy- I figure those wanting to learn it have an interest in working with it professionally at some point. :)
