Yes, this would definitely be better. Not that long ago I was updating a script written for 3.5 to 3.7 or something like that. Most changes were so minor that you could fix it with a few sed runs, but I'd appreciate if they had a standard tool to facilitate that. They've had 2to3 after all, why not for different 3.x versions.
@lanodan @a1ba I see. You're right it may feel this way because breakages never happen.
I still don't think it's anything like C, but nothing close to what happens to Python either — adding strong typing, changing the way modules are handled, etc.
I get why this happens, they try to use python for everything: web, big data processing, etc. And every crowd brings something new to the table. I don't like it either.
@lanodan That's because Perl 6 never saw wide adoption and Perl 5 was dormant for what, 15 years already?
I think most modern distros and OSes still come with it because everyone is lazy to rewrite the perl parts. If Git itself wasn't disgusting I'd find it disgusting that it uses Perl 😅
Python on the other hand is finding more and more uses. That is why it's so fscked up. I like some changes e.g. they've made async part of the language, but yeah, a lot of stuff that gets added is cursed.

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network GTK had some environmental variable to force wayland, I'm not sure if you still need it, maybe it detects this automatically. SDL apps still needs some var to use wayland backend.
BTW if you are serious about going the wayland route, try Alacritty. It's fast on wayland (I always thought of it as wayland-only, found out that it works with X11 only a month ago 😆) and really good.
@jrballesteros05 Yeah! AFAIK there was a bug in how Windows handled jpeg images when generating thumbnails. You could use a specially cooked image to run arbitrary code.
I believe it wasn't even fixed when Windows XP went into the limited support status. MS just advised everyone to turn off displaying thumbnails for all folders 🤣

@Hawlucha I don't think they'll collect your voice samples and your phone number if you call support as there is no way to handle this automatically — they don't know anything about the account you use, just your voice and phone number. Linking that to your account will require manual input from support engineer's side — and that is the last thing he/she wants to do I think.
But I suppose it depends on your paranoia level 😅
@Hawlucha Linking a phone number was never mandatory for me though, e-mail always did the trick, you've got to have a non-MS email-address linked though.
It offers this from time to time, but there was always a button like "Not now" or "Do it later".
The only time they insisted on entering some phone number is when I've sent too many e-mails in a short period — some antispam measure, I think.
@Hawlucha I've never played Minecraft, but I have MS account. It gets locked out once in a few months, mostly when using TOR. I don't think this happens when I just use VPN with exit nodes in different countries as Proton tries to keep their IPs from getting blacklisted.
It's always a bummer as I have to change my password six times to set it back to original one (AD-style security measure). I know it's me, there is no point in changing the password, right?
This one gives off strong vibes of The Process from Transistor game: a cybernetic entity imitating organic life.
Not that I'm against this cancer devouring the city. The blocks of flats behind it look terrible 🤢

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
