@ciaranmak @Rairii the easiest way to get this LEGO set built is to buy it pre-built from this meth-head who shoplifts them from the local Target, builds them while high and sells them on eBay

@Rairii @andrewnez that one is for you!

@Di4na @Rairii 🫠

@Rairii i never understood how curl | sh was worse than just downloading a script and running it tbh .. seems to do the exact same thing

@Rairii @Li probably still true

Every program that downloads from the internet sends a user-agent header to the server, normally it's program name, version & a bit more text.

A server could use that to detect curl & send a malicious install script that's different from if you downloaded it with Firefox

@Rairii @Li ok, that really is something 🙁

@Li @Rairii well, you are supposed to read the script you just downloaded from the internet before running it, just to make sure that it doesn't have rm -rf / in there anywhere

@mewsleah @Li @Rairii and some sites include a checksum of the file, with instructions to download both & use the checksum to validate you've downloaded a script wth the right contents

@Rairii Is unfortunate because it's such a baller project

@ciaranmak @Rairii this is truly incomprehensible to me. How is a reverse-engineering tool of all the fucking things doing this for their install instructions?! Your users are driven to break things apart and find out how they work. Isn’t this just antithetical to that whole ethos?!

@c0dec0dec0de not gonna lie, this sounds like a dream job

@ciaranmak @Rairii

@Rairii this could all be a a Makefile
