@pureevil That's right, but you probably don't need most of PyPi in cases where IronPython is used. Hell, they even have youtube-dl there, which brings in _binaries_ to do the muxing — without any coded support, but it's still binaries.
They most probably need only stuff like NumPy and it's likely it works with anything, even if extra work was put into making it compatible.
Python is hardly the best, but not the worst out there. But I agree, we need better tools badly.
@scathach

@pureevil And yes there are other implementations, IronPython also comes to mind. The biggest problem with CPython — the reference implementation is that I think it still has this big interpreter lock so only one thread can be truly "pythonic", it makes it unsuitable for true multi threaded applications, this is where all other implementations come in.
@scathach

@pureevil
Yes, you are right. I like Python, but I agree it's hardly the best language out there because nowadays it's often used for things it wasn't originally designed fo, now they are dragging static typing into it it's becoming even more of a mess. Web Development, Data Science — sure, you can do all that, you can do anything, but that hardly made the language itself any better.
But is TypeScript a better language? I'm not sure 🤔

But they didn't claim otherwise, they said it makes you more attractive on dating sites. It's not contradictory, all these things often go hand in hand 🤣
@molly0xfff

@pureevil What about languages that enforce certain syntactic sugar like Python, should they be eradicated? 😏

@ferrous
Yeah, same here. I'm not in France, but I'm using an IP-address allocated to France and I can access it. It's not uncommon for media to do that, that is why it's the first thing that came to mind. Maybe they think that Europeans are unlikely to become paid subscribers, but they'll send the link to their US friends who will — something like that 🤷

@lina In Russia most are proud that their fathers and grandfathers defeated the Nazis, but at the same time a lot of slavic people are prejudiced against the ones who come from Caucasus region, even those who are citizens of Russian Federation. They often call them black. Yeah, they call Caucasians black, no shit! Russia is as weird as it gets 🤪

Aryan race is a Zoroastian myth. Most Persian people are far from what you'd call white, but a small part of them, the nobles, the ones who were supposed to be the ancestors of everyone else were supposed to be white. Nazis just appropriated it, misinterpreted and twisted it further.

@mjdxp Most distros have separate packages for language packs and individual LibreOffice apps — Void does, but they also offer a metapackage that just installs everything, maybe that's what you are installing.
Or could just be poor packaging if the maintainer is lazy 😅

@DotardTed Looks like he just wanted a hug 😄

@drq
Зашёл сюда написать этот комментарий, а он уже есть! 🤣
И кстати, мне кажется, что был. При чём очень давно, когда у меня ещё подписка была — тогда фильмы и сериалы, к которым хотя бы субтитры русскоязычные были можно было по пальцам пересчитать.

@mjdxp Doesn't stuff like that happen all the time, e.g. the infamous Deepwater Horizon disaster? If companies profit, they keep it, but if companies fuck up — it can always be fixed with taxpayer's money 😩

@mjdxp It's so stupid to spend your money on shit you don't need out of spite. But if some are into this, let them have it — at least they didn't spend it on something worse 😄

@breadandcircuses
Did work for me! Maybe because I have JavaScript disabled by default, maybe because it's georestricted and I have IP of a region they aren't interested in 🤷
@jebba

@mjdxp In games like NetHack and original ADOM it probably does 😂

It's just that I don't encounter anything related to Hello Kitty often these days and your post brought back memories. I won't go on if you don't like it. Not that there is anything more to share besides what I already told. Sorry if that made you sad or something.
