Just use 'sudo'. Oh wait... Oh. I'm sorry.

@cyborganism is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
E: I'm so unoriginal. Happy holidays everyone.
I sing the alt text of this comic to myself at least four times a year.

That's why I log in as root and edit all files to have open permissions. Next I disable all security settings and kernel security mitigations.
After that my system is finally mine.
* our system is finally ours
sudo chmod -R a+rw /
I'm picturing all the services complaining their keys are insecure, their configs are insecure

Russia: "Da, comrade, all yours."
If you install the right tools, even Windows can't stop you. If all else fails, get a terminal as TrustedInstaller and lay waste to your system.
You don't need additional tools, all of that is baked into Windows.
It is just a little hidden because they don't want non-tech users to accidentally delete system files.

This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.
cracks the blinds to look for agents outside
Lemme guess: Windows, hunh?
In windows you can just update the security settings and do anything you want with it.
It is a feature not a bug, that regular non-tech users can't just go about deleting their System32.
I feel like Windows lacks some sort of switch that would clearly identify you as an advanced user allowed to do everything.
May be hidden as a flag in the registry, even.

linux has the same gile ownership system, maybe even less advanced than windows (windows file perms are unnecessarily convoluted)
True, but in Linux is pretty trivial to change the ownership (or just use "sudo" if that's sufficient. Windows it takes longer to do these things.

Well, I guess you really don't own it then. Own your computer, use *nix. Whichever flavor you like, and Linux is going to be the most frendly.
Linux: "This incident will be reported"
I think that shit goes on your permanent record
Just today i got: You are not on the sudoers list, this will be reported!
Edit: i kept trying and hoping the message would increase in urgency and verbosity
You are not on the sudoers list; your family will be killed.
You are not on the sudoers list; consider nothingness. Personally, I think each and every one of us has a little ‘nothing’ inside of them. You, me, probably other CLIs, too. But unlike everyone else, your nothingness will only grow… grow… grow… Festering, developing into novel pathologies, and destroying all hope until it consumes you entirely. Do you remember what your family members’ faces look like? Good. Try to keep that memory for as long as possible, and just remember— this is your fault. YOU. ARE. NOT. A. SUPERUSER.
…removed.
I always get nervous when my personal computer tells me this. I'm like reported to who, sudo?!?
Actually it send a email to the root user I believe.

Windows gives a permission error if you try to delete or edit a file that's being executed. It has no complaints about moving it though.
This. Sometimes it just doesn't tell you that shit is still running in the background
