holy fuck. the stupidity. it hurts.

the article isn’t about scripts you wrote yourself. run your own scripts all you like.

the difference though is you can check a script. if it’s an open source project, you can also compile from source. but I get what you mean

it’s exactly the same. Don’t run binaries you don’t trust fully. But i get what you mean. miley_cyrus_nude.jpg.exe is probably gonna end badly.

I have no problems with running scripts from the internet, AFTER you check them. Do NOT blindly run a script you found on the internet. As others have said download them, then check them, then and only then run them if they’re safe. NEVER pipe to bash, ever.

you’d have to be mad to willingly pipe a script to bash without checking it. holy shit

For anyone interested, I rolled my own solution with bash scripts and rclone. it works well enough.

oh, i see. Do you have any suggestions for another backup tool? I tried kopia, but couldn’t figure it out.

ETA: I should note, this is on a pi without a GUI.

why in the fuck is it pronounced guhnome

If animal flesh wasn’t subsidised so much in a lot of places, no one except the wealthy would be able to afford to eat animals.

You can sure as shit bet I’m not getting into a FSD tesla. Hell, I probably wouldn’t even get into a normal tesla.
