However, Russ said you can run one machine model Plan 9 with your favorite user name, and if neccessary you can add your favorite name to sys group, wright? In this case, you should remind you can create any file from fossilcons window, if you need it to be owned by 'sys'. This is the one point which I told lastly, the three machine=20 Plan 9 model is clearer. However, I know Russ's idea is interesting.

This "invent > root by another name" meme has lasted long enough. I started to respond to this but halfway through realized where this meme was coming from, at least in my mind. I was feeling nervous about running in group sys because, well, I could accidentally destroy the whole file system, right?
