   Hey Benny!   
      
    BP> i will wait until 4k*4 got standard   
      
   16k?  Given the cost of an 8k I seriously doubt it will be worth it no matter   
   how many stars it can render.  Besides you'll be no closer than you are with   
   4k given the 'infinite' number of them in comparison.   
      
    BP> i just currently fiddle with python versions, now 3.11 is std,   
    BP> and all old versions dependice need to go   
      
   So far all I have that requires python2 is seamonkey.  Everything else has   
   either been abandoned or hacked where needed, although at the moment I can   
   only think of one app that requires messing with the version (gpsd) and I   
   don't actually use it that much, mostly testing ideas.  I can live without it.   
      
    :r !python --version   
   Python 2.7.18   
      
    :r !python3 --version   
   Python 3.11.3   
      
   As far as I am personally concerned, I see no need for either.  Near as I can   
   tell it's a hacking tool for Windows types.  Also none of the fidonet stuff   
   requires any version of python that I am aware of.  I have seen at least one   
   BBS that is python based but haven't heard about it in around a decade now.   
      
   What do you use python for?   
      
   Life is good,
