I have been wondering how to make a simple Base64 encoding and decoding program using Python. How do I do that?

To do that, first learn how to do that with the easy programming language known as “real life”. Just search it up… BOOM
Then, write python.

You can't sell a soldered CPU. You can sell the SSD, but properly format it and completely wipe the data off it so it's impossible to recover. Not sure why you would sell fans, but 12GB RAM could actually get you a decent amount of money.

*finds out the RAM type is FBD2*

hrmm… hey google duckduckgo how much will 12Gb of FBD2 RAM cost???

a7la-home.com interesting url… but nope

hrmm… hey google startpage how much will 12Gb of FBD2 RAM cost???

NO RESULTS!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?

okay fine… he we go….. we are going to get tracked…..

h-e-y goooogle….. how much will 12Gigggggabyyyyyyyyyyyttttttttttttttes of FBD2 raaaaam cost???

no!!!!!

So…. my computer is worthless???
made small to save space
REAL ANSWER: 4GB = 7.25 pounds = $13.93NZD so 12GB = 13.93NZD * 3 = $41.79NZD. Add

128GB of SSD… ~$2032
so my computer is ONLY $20!!!!!?????
To get $73.79 out of a computer that costed $699… NO! WE CAN DO BETTER! but not now… math homework

EDIT: and to get the now ~$1000 computer that I want…. need to do some investing thinking
EDIT: math homework didn't work now I have to do my spelling homework
EDIT: BACK TO WORK!!!

We also need a new keyboard and mouse, but I can't sell my current one so no.
wait…

but you can sell a computer!

so… backup all personal*** files, programs and some of the registry*, get new fans**, REINSTALL WINDOWS, sell computer.

Then I can include the CPU

The CPU is 1.7 GHz**** so umm… let me guess… $~50-100???

Then the computer case… $~150-500?

Then the multiple few (3) USB slots MINUS ~10

Then the HDMI, VGA and… file share? Cable slots +~15

Then the weight minus $~25*****

Then the windows 10 $~100-500

Then add

customers wrote:
“WOW!!! IT'S A COMPLETE COMPUTER!!!!! I DON'T HAVE TO BUILD ONE!!!”

$~50

You get ~$678.79NZD.*******

But like, no still. This computer is fine******

*I changed some settings, you know!
**the old ones are dusty and probably broken(!).
***Of course!
****it's a nine year old computer y'all know.
*****not as heavy as a nine year old, thankfully
******barely enough, even in 2022.
*******But fine enough to run calculator!!! good enough for now. and can run minecraft BE Education Edition 1.17.31 at 100% CPU. oof.

EDIT: #2 LONGEST FORUM POST!!!

Why not encodedBytes.decode()?
