And since Arch is rolling release it's python-lib, not python3-lib. :)

I basically never audit ANY software I use. I trust those in communities I frequent that say they have.

If you can't audit the code then it's closed source and not FOSS.

I fully support returning to Latin. Dulce est desipere in loco!

I don't get it with these. If it's FOSS why would the country of origin matter? All source is available and anyone can freely fork it? You don't even pay anything in the first place so not like boycotting these types of projects has any effect?

Problem is that distro1 has req-lib2.5.3 while distro2 has req-lib2.7.8, but your project was developed on distro3 with req-lib2.9.5 so you have to deal with every distro having different lib versions and compatibility issues that come with it, not just different packaging formats.

Didn't know about that, how exactly is that implemented?

No problem, just makr sure your system has the exact version of libraries the application needs. And oh, you will only update those dependencies when the application update updates the requirements.

Oh what's that? Another application you want to install uses the same lib but different version? Tough luck, chump!

Seriously it's either flatpaks or the multi-version dependency management that openSUSE has, and you're not saving much more space here either.

Dragon age 2? Sure. Inquisition? Not really. The unspeakable one? Hell no.

Yup, it's something I myself recently started to realise and have been forcing myself to read things that actually interest me.

While in elementary and middle school every 2 months we had a specific book we had to read and then would discuss it in class and would be graded based on our input.

Reading books and writing essays has been cemented in my mind as a boring chore that is forced upon me. It took years before it even occured to me that reading might be a fun activity, and a couple more before I actively started trying to read again. It's difficult to break away from the mould I've been set to during my childhood, but I'm slowly chipping away at it.

Children SHOULD read, but how can we get them to WANT to read?

I am a young person who doesn't read recreationally, and I avoid writing wherever I can. Thank you for sharing your insight as well as sparking an interesting discussion in this thread.
