USER: unbound variable when used in a cron job

I get this error when used in a cron job:
speedtest: line 92: USER: unbound variable

USER env variable isn't available when used as a cron job. I suggest using HOME variable in line 92 instead.

Hi,

Im getting a permission denied error. You know how to handle it?

./speedtest --log

Thanks!

Failed to retrieve list of speedtest.net servers

 !!  speedtest: unhandled ERR via trap, but cleanup finished. 

Mkstemp failed on Mac OS X

Whenever I run the script on Mac OS X, I get the following error (the part after the tmp is different each time)

mktemp: mkstemp failed on /dev/shm/88_speedtest.sh_tmp.jVA7zHF6Uj: No such file or directory

Also if I run

echo "$(curl -skLO https://git.io/speedtest.sh && chmod +x speedtest.sh && ./speedtest.sh)"

I get a blank output and it doesn't actually download the script. I have curl and jq installed.

Running Average of results.

Hey I didn't know where else to post this. I wanted to mention that I used your script and created a companion script that calculates a running average of the speed tests.

Here's the repo:
https://github.com/kgor93/SpeedTest-Average

And here's what the output looks like. Thanks!
