"sudo is not recognized an an internal or external command"

I literally saw that kind of message very recently on a nixos based machine and I literally had to stand up and do a lap. What in God's green earth do you mean there's no 'sudo'??

apt remove sudo

sudo is not installed on several distributions by default, so hardly surprising it's not there or that you can remove it.

It's not surprising you can remove it, but it seems contrary to teaching good habits to not install it by default as a basic utility. You don't want to train people to log in as root

Actually I think the only way I can log in as root is sudo -i

Pretty sure root has /bin/false as its shell and it's configured as no login my machines
