The user literally can't do this. Only the system administrator can. That's the point. Stop being disingenuous. The system works fine out of the box on any modern system. I installed Fedora 29 on a system with 2 GB of RAM and did software development on it all day with no problems. In this case a clueless *system administrator* used privileged commands to bork his system then claimed that it had a problem.
Exactly. They seem to forget that "*nix is to OS" as "C is to programming". They have same philosophy. These OS and language wa built by programmers for programmers. This OS (*nix) and language (C) is a very sharp tool, you will hurt yourself if you don't know what you're doing.
You must realize that the computer has it in for you. The irrefutable proof of this is that the computer always does what you tell it to do.
