Shit, just linux.

Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts

I have a vague memory of some project that did this ages ago where you could see the script on their web page but when you ran the command it executed a different script (there was a single-character difference in the URL) and the result was it told you not to be so dumb as to run scripts like that.

It was idontplaydarts.com (search it up on Internet Archive). It could detect if you were downloading it directly, or piping it to bash, abd change the script it was delivering accordingly.
