As a Linux noob I like your oneliner but I agree with @solxix@pawb.social

A more approachable way to do that would be to use wget and then manually run apt install with the downloaded file. That’s what I’ve been doing. :) Yours is “magic” ;)

I was looking at this self-hosting guide and scratching my head in confusion. They say $80 nets you a 4TB HDD. Meanwhile, in my country that costs more like $220+. Yes, for an HDD, not SSD (that would be more like way over $500). I see the guide has been updated this year, so either the US lives in another world or nobody has updated the pricing.
