Forgetting Sudo (we've all done it)

[Claeys67]

I hope no one actually tried sudo rm -rf /home/username.

Why does Linux Journal even take this as an example?

Why not use apt-get or something similar instead?

Like it's on purpose.

cool! that's a cool tip indeed.

It's funny too, typing sudo !!

Like in, damn I forgot that!! x)

Awesome, an invaluable tip. :)

Cool tip. Thanks.

what if the last thing you typed was !!

lol

wow... This is going to save so much time I waste typing some long command and then remembering I used a sbin command and having to retype it all with sudo.

Thanks for the tip!

Great tip Shawn, like always

Can you type something after the "!!"? It'd be interesting (although less useful than typing something before)

great tipp! but BAD tags and keywords to search for! as you said.. its not a sudo thing.. its bash ! so there should be more matching keywords like that in your title AND tag list and info box so someone (like me) could find your video on a search. this is realy a problem with your vids. few months ago i was searching for one of your vids, i didnt remembered the title, but i knew the command or parts of. but i was not able to find it since you didnt mentioned them in your tags list. BAAD Taging.
