I do have a password. Sudo is just setup not to ask for it.
On servers of course I use a password for sudo - but on a home machine there’s not much of a point I don’t think. It’s off when I’m not actively using it, and if some attacker or malware has access to my user they already have access to all my important files, or have physical access.
I don’t, after doing the classic rm -r -f / when I meant ./ the second time I realized I’m too much of a dumbass to be allowed to use sudo without password.
That sudo might save the poor victims ass if they’re awake enough to wonder “why does it ask for password when I’m just doing ls?”
Otherwise it’s a good lesson in always having backups / easy way to reproduce your setup.
Unless they updated their system with Sudo shortly before
Pffft who’s not using passwordless sudo anyway
I’ve always had a password. One of the biggest benefits of Linux is security. Why would you undermine that by not using a password?
