(Yes, I'm lazy. I often to

sudo bash/csh/ash/tcsh/whatever-shell

to become root for a while. Then I don't have to do sudo before each command.)

very bad practice in Linux/Unix world FYI

I've done it since sudo was introduced (mid 80s?) on my own Unix/Linux machines (and before that, I ran "su - root"). The only difference from running every single command with sudo, is that the commands I run aren't logged.

But this is not this thread's question.
