If you want something that hides all of the ugly console garbage, well that’s not an option on Arch because reading the pacman output is mandatory; using something like Discover (which hides it) will break your system eventually.
On the other hand, if you just mean “a small curated list of apps for specific tasks”, there actually is one, it can be launched from CarhyOS Hello.
You are correct and most of the commenters here are wrong, UAC is a feature that IS secure without a password and Linux does not have any equivalent.
Windows can safely control privilege escalation through a secure elevated prompt that only the user can interact with.
Because Linux doesn’t have any kind of secure elevated prompt like that, any process could impersonate you to log in as your user if it didn’t have a password, so you just have to have a password on Linux if you want it to be secure.
I’d recommend CachyOS over EndeavourOS
If it can’t be done in the GUI, it’s not worth doing. If that includes something a basic user would need, the that’s a failure of the OS.
“A implies B” means if A is true then B must be true; if A is false, then B can be anything. In other words, the only state not allowed is A being true and B being false. Therefore, the only “hole” is the part of A that doesn’t include B.
And now that you’re going to cancel, you will be left with nothing. If you had taken the hundreds of dollars you spent on GamePass and just bought the games instead, you would have still had a library of games you own.
2 is not == true, but !!2 is true
The retraction doesn’t make it ok that they did it in the first place.
The Screen Savers also got me on Mandrake, and I also (accidentally) nuked my Windows, except I didn’t have any way to re-install Windows, so just had to raw-dog it. T_T
I remember that damn Mandrake installer, with the shitty TUI popups and you had to go through like 900 prompts asking all kinds of arcane BS, and it took over an hour. “Do I want to enable
rwhodandypbind? Uh… yeah, I totally know what those are…”.
