Hey guys. I’m new to Linux and I’m running Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon. Yesterday I have f*cked up. I was testing things in users and geve myself standart priveledges insted of Admin ones I had from beggining and then restarted PC. I then tried log back into users tab and change myself back to Admin but even tho the password is correct It says that it is not. /So at this point there is only one user in PC who has standart privliedges and no Admin./ I then tried to access root via terminal and this time It said that I don’t have permision to do that. And this is where I’m at right now. Please help get back my admin privliedges.

Edit: Issue is fixed. I started GRUB and changed my password which fixed the whole issue. Once again big Thank you to everyone who gave me tips and also big thank you to the guy who started posting about rowing machines. You all wonderful.

        Not OP, just an admirer, but:

        1. If you have the cheese for a WaterRower, it’s quiet enough that you can haul ass in your studio apartment for 90 minutes without bothering your neighbors
        2. Rowing burns a fabulous amount of calories with the smallest possible footprint - you take up a rectangle of space for the entirety of your workout and at the end you’re still exhausted
        3. Full-body workout baby
        4. Naturally builds a functional-looking body, not too grotesque, very 3D
        5. As long as you keep it clean, no one will notice you’re not using your rowing machine - it’s pretty obvious when you’re not using the 32 kg kettlebell in the corner
        6. There are cool apps out there for rowing machines, but without the prohibitive expense of Peloton

        Oh man you should get a rowing machine, I got one for Christmas and have used it for like 180 days so far and let me tell you Im getting absolutely shredded. My beer belly has turned into shoulder and chest and bicep muscle and is now totally gone. My torso is like an inverted triangle, my lats are poppin, i got like dimples in my shoulders now above my armpit, shit’s wild.

        The key is doing it like every day and turning up the resistance if it gets easy. Also stretch a lot and look up what you’re doing so you don’t hurt yourself

      I’m kinda used to people being sensitive even to the most minor of profanities but If it’s alright I won’t fucking hold back. I’m not intersted in rowing machines right now but thanks anyway.
