People don't seriously try to use Kali as a daily driver, do they? That's just a meme, right? Right?
When I was a kid I installed it and was like "hooHOO, me hacker", so there are silly things like that.
Nevermind me being too intimidated by CLI to do anything in Linux at the time lmfao.
It's been a while since I've thought about it, so what are the reasons why it's a bad daily driver? I assume there's poor support for drivers, hardware, etc.?
Or is it when you do pen testing you don't want to leave traces of yourself? I'm not a cybersecurity guy, so I genuinely don't know.
Don't need to go any further than "default user is root."
Oh yikes LOL.
I understand why Kali needs that for Kali things but hoo boy.
Thanks for succinctly explaining.
Hasn't been the case anymore for quite some time, even though I think it has quite generous sudo rules. But yes, it's not meant to be your main OS but instead more like a toolbox you use in liveboot/VM/etc.
