    ok i solved it

    i'll live-patch the update script to output the url instead of curling it, and then i'll do the download on a remote box via ssh and bring in the file with scp, easy

    maybe i'll make a shell script that does this for other installers using the same pattern too. i could call it bum, bro upgrade manager

    bum update

    or maybe i'll just call it πŸ‘

    using an emoji as the binary name, how's that for a pattern? such innovation

    @jasmine somehow it feels like πŸ‘.sh would be even worse πŸ˜‚
