"“because it was always running as root.” That is BAD..."

So is having to keep typing a Pword and being told you cannot edit files you installed, and need to run sudo this and sudo that IIRC. Just a prompt should so if you are the only user and "drive" carefully, pray and press. I like Puppy.

Doesn’t have anything to do with your driving abilities or choice of roads at all my friend. It is an open backdoor for unseen others and defeats the whole concept of why Linux is more secure. It is even less secure than Windows if in perpetual root. Who knows what kind of stuff you are spreading to others...
