@@mrfuzzy2954 you only read half of my comment huh? I'm asking about the "man" command in specific, and I don't think it's actually necessary to use sudo here. That's why I was asking.
Hi there, Sudo means: Superuser Do, so i alway´s feel like Superman when i do Sudo! You are right,for the man command you don't need to use sudo but old habits die slowely so i alway's use the Sudo command just as on windows i alway's open everything as Administrator so i have total control,and it makes me feel powerfull,LOL,Tnx for your comment and cheers from Alex
My brother, thank you for sharing this video. I know you are trying to help but you didn't really make it clear. I've been using Linux for many years and UNIX for many more years before that, so I am well aware of the command line in the terminal. You need to understand the Linux filesystem before you can start going crazy changing permissions and stuff. Just changing file and directory permissions willy nilly can seriously damage your filesystem. Trust me, I've messed it up enough times to know. You have to explain about the difference between the user's home folder which can be changed any which way you want and the system folders which should be left strictly alone. Do NOT encourage users to use the sudo command until they understand what the hell they are doing. Otherwise they can mess up their system irrevocably. I appreciate that you're trying to demystify the command line but it's mysterious for a reason. It's better than novice users only use the GUI file managers until they know how the system works. Otherwise you'll just frustrate them. My 0.2 cents but I've been doing this for over 40 years now, so be advised.
Hi there,thank you for your comment!You are correct that the Sudo command and giving Root permissions is a issue and can bork the system in the hands of a novice user or noob!But if you are a linux user and want to use and learn linux,you have to fall,just as a kid who rides a bike for the first time!Linux is not a operating system for people who look for a safe zone!it´s for IT guru´s and nerds who wanna explore and learn the OS!Sudo means:Superuser Do and i am a power user and i want power at the tips of my fingers!If people never us Sudo,then they never have full control of there linux box and i think that the linux community sometimes are to elites and fear mongering is only gonna scare people away from Linux as a platform.The commands that are mencioned in these video will not trash your system nor it will affect cyber security and online safety!For any viewer who is afraid to trash there system,they should just create a user account in linux and have no Root permissions at all!I think i mencioned in the video about the possible risks but i will take your advice and next time inform my viewers better about the possible risks!Tnx and Cheers from Alex
Why are you using sudo for the man command?
Sudo gives root access to programs. Its needed to install, delete and change programs

If this is your 0.2 cents, I fear to know what your 1 cent would look like.
