None of that explains the question of "why did you think that a blank video would be useful?"So your issue of confusion is that you aren't aware that when UAC appears on Windows 10, ...
See how this in no way addresses the question? You aren't even in the same conversation.
You're trolling me right?
I'm asking ONE QUESTION.
-
It's this simple...
Why did you make a video that showed a blank screen?
Answer: I was....
- Confused and thought you'd see something.
- Didn't understand how videos worked.
- Thought you wouldn't notice.
- Didn't realize that six seconds of dead air wouldn't be useful
I can't be the one trolling, you are the one not answering the super duper simple question.

So your issue of confusion is that you aren't aware that when UAC appears on Windows 10, it is impossible to record the UAC prompt and thus blanks out the screen.
So your assumption here is I should setup a tripod with an external camera so you can see my entire screen, desk, coffee mug and everything else so you can watch my type in admin credentials to run an elevated powershell window.
Does that sound correct?
No, I assumed you had a point and were making the video for a reason. Instead, it showed nothing useful. WHY DID YOU MAKE THE VIDEO?
Can't you see, just one question to answer. But you'll mention Windows 10 or UAC again isntead of answering it.
I made the video to show you how incorrect you are. That opening powershell on Windows is quick, regardless of the fact that it takes time to type credentials to elevate.
Just like running su, it takes time to enter your credentials. Do you call this slow? Your time to type?!

but it took SIX SECONDS, exactly as I said. Yes, something was going on for some amount of time during the blank screen, but how much of that time, we have no idea. All we know is that the result was six seconds. It never showed anything being fast. It doesn't show it was slow, either. It showed nothing useful. Hence the question.
How long it takes for you to type credentials excuses why it MIGHT be slow. But given that it WAS slow means the video could not have any value in showing it to be fast unless we had an additional timer on you typing credentials. We didn't, so it doesn't show what you wanted to show at all.

Also it is why I specifically made the second video, and highlighted the fact to you that in the longer video I have to type in credentials to elevate.
How you can't come to grasp with that bit of information and just stop already, and accept that you're wrong is mind boggling.

Yes, when you didn't type the creds, it was fast. THAT video was useful.

You've never come up with something I was even remotely wrong about. The video showed it taking a long time, that didn't tell me it was fast, so why show it being slow?
And I just kept asking what you were trying to show, and you never answered. You actually got so lost that you thought I didn't know how UAC worked and confused that with wondering why you bothered to show a blank screen.

Even when I did type my credentials (and told you that I was doing so) it was still fast.
You can't say "Oh powershell is so slow compared to linux" because someone has to pass credentials to elevate.
I could just as easily argue that having to run SU over and over and over again is slower than powershell because I have to keep entering credentials over and over and over again.

You're clearly inexperienced with windows and thus need to come down to our trenches to continue to have this conversation.
The "6 seconds" (as if this was fucking watergate) was the same amount of time it would take most people to pass credentials into SU.
Why is this difficult to grasp?

What? It was six seconds. How does anyone know it was fast? All we know ALL we know, is that it was six seconds. That's not fast. Maybe you take 5.9 seconds to type your creds, that's fine, then PS was fast, but whether you make the video or not, it comes down to you having to just say "it was fast". The video doesn't make it any more or less apparent than you just stating it.

See, this is the problem. I want to know how a blank screen tells me something is fast, and you think that that implies knowledge or lack thereof of Windows. That Windows was underneath isn't even relevant to the conversation.

Do you think that using Windows determines typing time? That's not OS dependent.

redentials into SU.Why is this difficult to grasp?
Why do you think it's being discussed? why is THAT difficult to grasp? You are talking about something unrelated to the topic. I'm talking abotu the video, you think that Windows is part of that. It's not.

If you use su, not SU, then you'd know that once you do it, you are switched and you don't need to do it again. So your point doesn't make sense. Hence why I didn't think you mean su.
Inj theory sudo is the one that you have to do over and over, except it doesn't require, if you don't want it to, any typing and all, and by default it gives you a period of time when you don't need creds again anyway. So neither work the way you were describing.

I'm done arguing with you. Clearly something is off within your head that you're incapable of grasping what has been shown and explained so clearly that a toddler would know the difference.
And I know the command isn't SU but is in fact su, and I also know that su changes the user to be whatever you want. It's unimportant at this time.
Have fun trolling people.
I'm out for a bit.

Huh? So you DID know how su worked and said something wrong about it anyway to try to prove you weren't crazy earlier thinking that we wouldn't notice?
