Thank you very much!

“As powerful as LaTeX” is a huge claim. How strong is this claim?

Edit: The claim is that it is designed to be as powerful as LaTeX, not that it presently is. Does it reach its goal?

There are no more first world countries. The USA itself is now a second world country, and has alienated all its allies.

We aren’t pretending it isn’t happening. We are making a mindful sacrifice.

Leaving Facebook is more than just not using a website. Facebook is more than a website and leaving it is leaving the entire culture it has captured, so that our energies are spent building the culture that remains uncaptured instead of contributing to the captured culture. It’s a big fucking deal that affects every aspect of your life in modern society.

Or we can just enjoy the show.

Not as adults.

Trampolines are for every fit adult and child.

Both things could be true.

But your honour, I only beat him to within an inch of his life. What do you mean, guilty???

No, it mightn’t. Err, won’t.

It’s not just that the phenomenon isn’t familiar to my experience, it doesn’t even theoretically correspond to physics as I understand it. Probably you know the things I’m about to say and are speaking informally, but for clarity and to establish common vocabulary I’m going to nail some stuff down according to science.

You can’t see water in its vapour form. You can see when vapour condenses back into tiny liquid droplets in midair (fog, mist, or colloquially “steam” but not really steam) or on cold surfaces (like when it fogs or “steams up” a mirror).

Water vapour can’t carry substances with it when it goes through the phase transition from liquid to vapour. Anything that is dissolved in the liquid water remains behind as residue. When water vapour condenses back into liquid, it is pure water. This is how distillation works. Piss is just water with stuff dissolved in it. If you evaporate piss and then condense the vapour in a separate container, you get pure water.

(Things get complicated when there is something dissolved in the water that has a similar vapour pressure, like alcohol or solvents, but those shouldn’t be present in your urine.)

I think maybe you just have pee that has an unusual or unusually strong odour, and the hot, continuously agitated water makes the smell more obvious than when you use a toilet or urinal. But the scent doesn’t mean you are being bathed in piss vapour, it’s just a normal smell.

Please come back. :-( My life has come to a halt.

There were three Star Wars movies, and none of them were even as good as the Mel Brooks parody.

I’m imagining this sizzling noise when the piss and water mix, and a pale yellow fog collecting around his ankles like he threw some dry ice in the water

I have no idea what you are talking about. And brother, I have been pissing my entire life.

Edit: I really need you to come back here and explain “piss vapor”.

Only sometimes. Often they are based on ignorance and prejudice, and gain credibility through raw repetition in the absence of any real-world observations. Like, shit, you can’t even comprehend of the existence of negative hurtful slanders as stereotypes? GTFO with that.

Windows was never the safe option, it was the anticompetative option that took away the safe options!! Windows has always been quite genuinely the least secure, least stable, least maintainable option.

That’s dumb.

This is probably a problem with how the question is being asked, but…

A .py file is not an application. It might be a component of an application but there is no general way to “install” a .py file. If you are coming from microsoft, you can think of a .py file as similar to a .bat file, but it might also be more like a .dll file.

If the .py file contains a script meant to be run like a .bat file, you can to run it from wherever you saved it using the Python interpreter. That is what is occurring in this example from your page:

python3 rectarg.py R230122W.cht R230122W.txt output.tif --target_dpi 300 --background GS10 --label_axis_visible X=B

The user is using the python3 command to run the rectarg.py script from the current directory, and passing it arguments with the rest of the commandline. This doesn’t require installing rectarg.py, just knowing the path (or in this case, being in that path).
