Guys: don't actually do this. Running stuff blindly on the command line from a URL without checking it beforehand is super risky and dumb.

So long as it's open source and I can read the code myself and enough people vouch for it I think it's more likely then not safe

Very dumb, check the second url I posted first and get the command line from there. Don't trust some random ass dude on Lemmy but I hope you'll see that I posted the same command as on the website
