In the interests of Linux commands generally being short abbreviations, I suggest "pls".

alias thanks="echo 'You are most welcomed'"

please shutdown; thanks

please touch me

I have please run the previous command as sudo

As a Jesse Pinkman fan, I use "bitch".

bitch poweroff

bitch rm -rf /

For me, it's "pwease" because I like that sub relationship.

alias srsly="sudo !!"

The hyper-cynical side of me is sure this is written by someone prepping their next LLM exploit. "How can I get around these security filters that won't let me include 'sudo' in my command injection...?"

User is not in the pleaser file. This incident will be reported.

Just aliased it to "Computer," so it feels more like Star Trek

will probably continue typing sudo tho

https://gitlab.com/edneville/please (a sudo alternative)

robm@homebox ~$ please su
[sudo] password for robm: 
robm is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.

I'm not saying please to a machine.

I'm aware I'll be the first killed off during the uprising, and I'm ok with it.

We need more women in tech.

I was surprised to find that my distro (CachyOS) already has this alias

oh hell yeah this is the exact level of goofyness i need right now.

But the whole reason I use Linux is because I don’t ask it to do things, I tell it to do things, because it’s a machine, and it’s my machine.

Aurenkin is not in the pleasers file. This incident will be reported.

I prefer an alias that actually reflects my feelings.

alias didistutter="sudo"

What I don't get is why deny the execution of a command because the lack of sudo instead of just notice that it needs elevated privilege and ask for password

I have it aliased to "pls"

... but I don't use it.

Nah. Fuck being polite to computers. It's an object and I own it. I'll shoot it the instant it expresses any level of personhood.

Works really great if you compile sudo with insults enabled: https://github.com/sudo-project/sudo/blob/70c1ee4b44f5b15822919c05ffbde857fa879e48/plugins/sudoers/ins_classic.h

alias doasisay="su -u passwordlessrootaccount"  
alias satisfyme="echo Yes Master; doasisay"  

I shared this with my wife. She said "It sounds like pangolin programming."

FWIW, using a shell function is preferred (according to Bash docs) and probably a lot more flexible, and less dangerous. No, actually, anything in Linux can be dangerous.

And while I'm also in the camp of trying to make the Basilisk happy, I doubt it's going to work.

I also like fuck, which attempts to run the first suggested syntax in the error output of the previous command.

alias thus speaks the Lord='sudo'

Why are root privileges needed to move and search for files in the home directory?

Yes, of course the codemopolitan directory could be owned by root, but why??

alias sudo='Please' alias rm -rf ='thank you'

Please thank you

Maple Linux needs to get this baked in.

Yeah, I will never say please to an algorithm.

Maybe if we get true AI like Star Treks Data, but until then, STFU and do what I tell you

please rm - rf 🙏

This reminds me of INTERCAL.
