Nah, oryaaaaa is somewhat as esotericism for his code, that is so popular for his posts xD.

So if there is not data, so go in Github, there are a lot of opensource ! :mrgreen:

This just seems like attention farming. Occasionally he'll come in here and post something totally random that gets no replies. I think it's either attention farming or a massive language barrior. I'm not judging, but yeah this is very confusing.

Piero has, let's say... a particular sense of humor that not everyone can understand (I don't understand it!)

Google translate does not do well with comedy:

Le barzellette non sono barzellette in altre lingue

"I wanted a new watch and my dad asked me, what do I need it for, I said... only to tell time"

That should not be funny in any language, but if it is, give me credit please. that's an original joke I wrote when I was 11.

I can only think of Windows vs Linux here. Windows collects data, Linux usually does not, except you want it to do so.
The english grammar is freeware, you can use it freely - But it's not Open Source, i.e. you can not change it or publish it in altered way.

This joke is open source. OK, mit license. :mrgreen:

A drunk is in the middle of the street with his keys in his hand.
A person approaches and says: What are you doing?.
The drunk answers: Waiting for my house to pass in front of me.

If you're not drunk you might not find it funny. :lol:

Please forgive me; it was meant to be a THANKS to all wonderful open source "examples" on this Forum, while also criticizing recent """freeware"""… :D

If you mean my spaghetti english often needs too much attention to decode, I sadly must agree with you :oops:
