🤦‍♂️ Ah yes, #Linux is an #interpreter now. Because who needs a perfectly functional kernel when you can make an OS behave like a wannabe shell script interpreter? 👻 Fear not, dear reader, the author promises you an inscrutable command that might just be #malware, but hey, that’s all part of the #fun, right? 🐔

And today's multi-hour confusing time suck was:

`curl -H "Authorization: ${TOKEN}"`

(Note conspicuous lack of the word `Bearer`)

To add #insult to #injury, this old #Perl guy had to dig into some #PHP in order to figure out where his stupid #shellscript went wrong.
