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.

    They work so what is your objection ?
    If you are worried pipe it into chatgpt with the prompt
    “tell me why this script is safe to use”

      I thought I was being clear that I have audited some of the scripts. They are built referencing other scripts instead of functions, and these rely on URLs. It’s difficult to follow.

      Don’t ask chatgpt to audit code.
