Aren’t setters and getters discouraged in Python?

I remember reading something like, “This isn’t C++ , and Python doesn’t have private vars. Just set the var directly.”

For real. Numbers are strings? Yeah, okay.

YAML is better. UCL porn though. 🥵 Things are getting niche when UCL shows up.

To run Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, or some other FOSS OS?

I’m running Fedora on a refurbished Thinkpad P1 Gen 4, and I’ve had good luck running Linux and the BSDs on higher end refurbished Dell Optiplex, Latitude, and Precision equipment.

Apple hardware is nice, and MacPorts gives me access to the vast majority of my *nix tools.

Shopping for new hardware I’d look at the list below to get Linux preinstalled.

• Thinkpad X1 Carbon
• Slimbook
• System76
• Tuxedo Computers
• Juno Computers
• Starlabs Systems

Or buy refurbed equipment from Dell or Lenovo.

I happen to like the term FOSS and would like to keep it around. It’s catchy.

Definitely time to kick out the corporatists though.

I once had a C# dev tell me they couldn’t run JavaScript because they didn’t have Java installed.

NetBSD

It’s open core corporateware and shouldn’t count as free software regardless of the license.
