   It’s bloody 2024, think we can agree on either wget or curl being installed by default on every freaking operating system by now so shell scripts can have a guaranteed way of carrying out http requests?

   I mean it’s been about 35 years. I think it’s about time.

     echo -e "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nhost: fosstodon.org\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n" >&5
