- eitland 2y agoI always run everything through virustotal first. (I should probably add that this is step two in my process: step one is to be very cautious and not download most things in the first place.)
- sparky_ 2y agoGiven the audience on HN, I think we can presume any readers of my comment are not trying to execute completely random untrusted binaries. There are legitimate cases when you need to do this to run a binary you trust, but the system doesn't.
