I only discovered this recently, and it’s very handy.

Piping scripts directly to bash is a security risk. You can always download the scripts, inspect them and run locally if you so choose.

    I asked repository maintainers and they said “LXC is not for apps” and of course docker is a good way to waste your weekends. So we don’t have repositories, we have scripts.

    If you disagree, go tell them

    Until then, people who have sacrificed enough of their weekend to the linux gods will be pipe internet text into their root consoles

      “I’ll do what’s easy even if it’s not good” is a terrible approach to, well, anything. I would expect people in this community to look for guidance on what the best way to do things is. Seems I’m wrong.
