These people are a critical part of the computer ecosystem. Without them, no one would use any settings other than the default. We may not have yet discovered the dark theme.
Now do the “purist” that spends their entire life trying to strip everything possible off to “save memory” when they should probably just use Alpine or NetBSD.
Python is great for scripting, but the advantages of nu and powershell are the ease of interacting with system utilities and the availability of common commands like ls etc.
of course, you can always do subprocess.run or os.listdir(), but that is not as simple as scripting in nu or powershell.
Idk, but it could be because the payment of the delivery is done ‘via surname’ to the postman when the package is handed over. So the bank can’t track on what you spend your money on (in case you are afraid they do). This option exists at least in Germany. However, it costs an high extra fee.
It’s called “per Nachnahme”, C.O.D. in English. You’d pay the postman for your parcel and the post office would pay the sender. It used to be quite popular in pre internet days. You whippersnappers wouldn’t remember. Not used a lot any more these days.
In my experience, if a seller in Germany offers that option, it’s 5 - 6€ extra, I don’t know anyone that ever used that service. Probably was more common before online payment was easy.
