[SOLVED] Wiki account creation: wrong answer

ctown.myth · 2015-08-20 19:35:12

Trying to create a wiki account, but apparently the output is incorrect:

$ date -u +%V`uname` | sha256sum | sed 's/\W//g'
8bd7b17e14378c99135afa4d0412bef5a59d5e8ade4bd7bed33d2fd2b1301fee
$ date -u +%V`uname`
34`uname`

I have tried 35`uname` and 33`uname`, none work. JavaScript is on, and tried with uBlock and Ghostery off as well. None have worked. Any ideas?

What's the output of

type uname

Is there actually a shell that does not support the backtick syntax for subshells? If uname were not found, the shell should print an error (at least bash does):

$ date -u +%V`foo`
bash: foo: command not found
34

Ah, yes, fish doesn't support backtics.
