I think they mean using curl to grab something and piping the output to bash so it it executed locally.

And it is pretty common. Things like ohmyzsh use it. I find it scary because you're running things direct from the web without any package signature architecture. I would trust the omz people but what if their GitHub was compromised? But don't check any of the source? No. I don't anyway, but with a bit of fear :/

Not the commenter you asked but... I played Rapier Punch on the Vic20 and I can't remember anything else. I never knew anyone else with one so maybe not that popular?

I met the two brothers that made dizzy. They told me the that the IP is still owned by their old company and that's why they could never make more. It was one of my favourite games as a kid, played on the Amstrad CPC and it was sad to know there were never more due to this.

If you're UK based, would you mind taking part in a Coventry University study to assess the UK’s automotive industry skills gap, workforce shortage and training needs alongside the role of emerging technologies use, including that of AI, for futures planning in the automotive industry?

It's a short anonymous survey (around 10 min): https://app.onlinesurveys.jisc.ac.uk/s/coventry/ai-skills-workforce-needs-in-the-uk-automotive-industry-can-ai-
