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.

    Upgrade what? The LXC/VM you just removed because of a wonky script?

    Did you purposefully misunderstand me? How did you not know that I meant “how do you update the thing you installed with a rando shell script” and not “how do you update something after removing it”?

      You go into the LXC’s console and type update, or use whatever package manager is available in the LXC.
