Doesn't look like it, but you can be the one writing one.

Dude, you wrote 2 days ago, you will vote in the general election in November in a thread about the American general election...

Who lives in denial?

Btw. as a German, no one outside the US wants Fahrenheit.

Where is Themen Park™ Manager?

I want to play that again so badly and its not even in GoG (unlike another Theme Park, I didn't play back then).

Why do people still host their stuff on github if they know its illegal?

How would you play a DRM-free game bought through steam without steam? (Genuine question)

Yes and if you bend them out of the way, some become sharp and I poured a carton of milk. So no, I to not like them.

To each their own except I have no (real) choice.

I have cut my lips twice on these fuckers. Also just this week while pouring milk, the cap somehow slipped right under the stream and spilled the milk everywhere.

Who loses their bottlecap?

Also this makes it harder for kids to drink from bottles, since they can't put their whole mouth around.

I hate these shit stains with a passion.

I am 99% sure, thia was all just a PR stunt by some bottle company. If they really wanted to do something for the environment, they would go for glass bottles again, since they can be recycled forever.

Mullvad is the most private a VPN company can get. They literally accept cash by mail.

Mullvad is RAM only for a few months by now, no log since forever and regularly contributes to privacy related topics.

The thing is: you can't trust a company when they say they are no log or RAM only. But you can trust what info you give them. Mullvad only has my IPs. No info about who I am otherwise. I send them 30€ twice a year and that's it.

BUT: they don't allow port forwarding anymore, if you need that, so they are not perfect.

A frozen embryo is not really "alive". Anywhere outside of a specific clinic in a specific container it would thaw and be destroyed immediately.

I know, where you are coming from, but counting a frozen embryo as alive is really stretching the meaning of alive.

First off, cause you are programming under windows, a lot of things will be harder for you. As seen on your problems with Python.
Most Linux installs have it right from the get-go and everything else is as simple. So giving directions for developers on other platforms might be much easier than what you had to go through. (Maybe use WSL?)

Let's get to your real question: How does one organize dependencies in a way easy for new contributors?
Since you will use Python, I will use that as example.

Most languages have a way to automagically import dependencies. Python has the requirements.txt file. Installing dependencies is then really easy. It is also a widely known way to do that, has lots of explanation online etc. so seasoned pythoneers will know what to do and younglings will get to know a good standard right away.

Bonus tip: If you don't have a GUI library yet, maybe also search for game engines. They provide all the necessary tools as well, oftentimes have good GUI add-ins and are (mostly) for all mayor platforms.

Now what most people don't know is that websites can insert arbitrary text when you copy stuff of them. A malicious site will abuse that.

It works like that:

You follow a tutorial online or search for a code snippet. You copy some code/said snippet and paste it into a terminal or the browser command line. This copied text is altered by the site to be a one line command to install malware or grab passwords or cookies. All of that is followed by a line break and maybe your real command to lower suspicion.

Some of the terminal or browser shells interpret a line break in the copied text as enter which then executes the command.

To prevent that, get a shell, that doesn't just execute what you paste (fish shell) or a terminal program, that warns you about line breaks (Moba xterm).
And please check text from unknown sites before pasting it into a program that may execute it right away. (Just paste it into a text editor or look at your clipboard manager like Win+V in windows)

You are right in that it isn't (or shouldn't be) part of the parsing, but the program has to check the blacklist even if it's in a database.

Well chrome should, yes. But they don't.
Then some JavaScript framework developers think "well this non-standard feature is neat, let's use that everywhere" and then companies who use their framework (or a framwork dependent on it) can't support all browsers.

It's a multilayered problem (as always) with lots of individually decisions that make sense, but don't work out in the end (as always).

What is this, a festival starter pack?

GPL

Why wait?

What about bloihoi and blow hoe?

My PC has a dedicated key to kill all processes.

In germany we had a 10k€ bonus for all buyers of an electric car. After the bonus ended, all the cars suddenly cost 7k-10k less in about 2 months.
