I’ve added this to my ~/.bashrc to stuff installed by pip install --user is accessible from interactive shells:
# set PATH so it includes user's private python "pip --user" bin if it exists
if [ -d "$HOME/.local/bin" ] ; then
PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin"
fi
The addition is at the end of the path. It is a choice: it means machine installs take prevalence over user installs. That’s usually what I want. For more considerations (including non-interactive shells), see [WayBack] bash – How to correctly add a path to PATH? – Unix & Linux Stack Exchange.
The --user installs do not affect the full system, nor other users.

Cool tool:
MultiBootUSB is a cross platform software written in python which allows you to install multiple live linux on a USB disk non destructively and option to uninstall distros. Try out the world’s first true cross platform multi boot live usb creator for free. Download Now!
Information and downloads on [WayBack] MultiBootUSB.
There are actually a few repositories within [WayBack] mbusb (multibootusb) · GitHub of which one has a ruby implementation as well.
A more elaborate article is on [WayBack] How to Install Multiple Linux Distributions on One USB, but the site should get you going just fine.
Via: [WayBack] Multiple Linux distributions on one UBS stick. I just tried it with: * CloneZilla * Lubuntu * LiteLinux The tool they describe – MultiBootUSB – comes w… – Thomas Mueller (dummzeuch) – Google+

There is still so much Python 2.x stuff on the web, and I’m slowly moving what I have to Python 3.
These links are good starts for print calls and string formatting:

After a 2018 discussion with a “zorgkantoor” (Dutch for office that arranges for special long term health care needs, successor of AWBZ) about their very low (10 megabyte) SMTP message size limit – even though they expect scanned PDF documents.
Their web-care team posed this limit as normal, so I made a list of limits in their peer group, common world-wide and well-ranked Dutch internet providers.
My plan is to check the progression of these limits over time.
Note these are the bruto message sizes including encoded attachments. Since encoding in [WayBack] MIME Base64 – Wikipedia has a overhead of at least 37% (encoded size is at least 1.37 the original size), the unencoded maximum size is less than 73% of what is listed below.

The article is dense but goes way deeper than straightforward sys.argv[1:] handling: [WayBack] 10.6. Handling command-line arguments.

Cool example, which requires dnspython and might need an update of the DNS record type list (maybe dnspython has that list built in?):
