When you come across some Python code for something written 5 years ago and they used four contributed packages that the programmers have changed the API on three times since then, you want to set up a virtual environment that contains those specific versions so you can at least see how it worked at that time. A small part of this headache comes from Python itself mutating, but the bulk of the problem is the imported user-contributed packages that multiply the functionality of Python.

To be sure, it would be nice if those programmers were all dedicated to updating their code, but with hundreds of thousands of packages that could be imported written by volunteers, you can't afford to expect all of them them to stop innovating or even to continue maintaining past projects for your benefit.

If you have the itch to fix something old so it works in the latest versions of everything, you have that option... but it is really hard to do that if you cannot see it working as it was designed to work when it was built.

There is an implied 6th bit that is zero. Timestamps have a two-second minimum resolution.

That is all those commie leftists they scrape off the streets to babysit their precious middle class kids can think about. /s/s

I didn't say it was unobtainable. But it might look/behave quite different than the tools you are currently using.

As for Microsoft Exchange, I only use that for work, and my employer would not allow me to connect from my personal machine anyway. I am not saying that you that you have to give up your favorite tools... but I am saying that it you are putting up so many fences then you might as well stay with what you have.

No.

If you ever so carefully paint yourself into a corner then the corner is where you will be stuck. How badly do you want out of your corner?

There are FOSS and SAAS options that could work if you wanted them to... but whether they will depends on you.

Meat eaters trying to become vegetarian for ethical reasons often fail because the "un-meat" options out there don't meet their standards. Success almost always requires some letting go and re-adjusting. If you are not open to that then don't force yourself to put up with something you don't really want.

You are being obtuse. Fiber and cable and DSL are not "ethernet standards" and Ethernet is not used for last mile connections. Re-read the excellent explanation.

knowledge takes you past hand to mouth living on the edge and creates the opportunity for spare time with which to ask silly questions.

Did anyone who up upvoted this actually follow the link and look at the script? This is a troll.
