re: advice
@mavica_again to be more concise:
type literally `man hier`. Read that.
Use applications with the correct permissions.
Use root/sudo to manipulate hardware directly. As is the case with fancontrol.
@mavica_again This bites me way too often on FreeBSD, too. I end up having to search for binaries and manpages post-install.
freebsd$ pkg info -l techbrotool-by-techbro-tool | grep -w -e bin -e sbin -e man
debian$ dpkg -L techbrotool-by-techbro-tool | grep -w -e bin -e sbin -e man
@arielmt "burrr u have to manpage it omgg u don't know how to Linux learn to manpage" Manpages fucking SUCK this shit needs to just give me a normal readable "this tool requires root privileges and that's IT not fucking gaslight me "ooo i don't exist lol get fucked"
@arielmt for clarification i am not upset at you or your reply specifically i just really think this entire ecosystem needs a fucking sobering look at itself
@mavica_again Yes, it really does. The other reply you got is extremely symptomatic of that need.
advice
@mavica_again Its the /usr/sbin calling.
If you are not familiar with that directory you can read about the basic hierarchy at `man hier`.
*nix system really unfold their simplicity from the top down perspective. trying to figure stuff out from the user perspective is cumbersome and often futile.
Thats why i recommend using bare distros like void, bsd derivates or similar to learn about the big picture. more "prefabricated" distros tend to startle you at every turn with complexity.
