I like wallpapers, but I hate having to download them by hand. So I made a Python script.

Now I have more wallpapers than I know what to do with!

What the hell is a ”git lab”? 🧓🏻

@HampusMa

Github but not owned by Microsoft ;)

@RiderExMachina Why does it matter whether its owned by Microsoft or not? I know that Microsoft had a lot of issues with their pricacy but when it comes to open source they’re fine. Everyone treats Microsoft buying Github as the end of the world even though its not even that big of a change

@HampusMa

1. I have personal reasons for not liking Microsoft that are apart from GitHub

2. I still have a GitHub account, I just like and prefer GitLab for certain things.

3. I really don't want a war about GitLab vs. GitHub, can we just live and let live?

@RiderExMachina 3/ war never ends. Fear us.

Thanks for the script!

I am pretty sure this is a wrong use of exit. A string is not a valid exit code.

@python3
Maybe, but it functions how I want it to (shows an exit message upon program close), so it's not hurting anything.

@RiderExMachina yeah you are right. It just striked me as a bit anti-pattern.

Basically don't do it at work. Sometimes scripts pipe into programs that will rely on a 1 or 0 exit code.

@RiderExMachina awesome work though, definitely gonna use it :D

@python3

Thanks; I do really appreciate the input. I feel like there are places where I could improve, so if you see any definitely let me know so I can get better! :)
