Anti Material Sniper Rifle
A lot of fun is made in this video, with some serious antimaterial sniper rifles. Instead of talking a lot about them, I invite you to have a look at the video. It's fun to watch
facts:
A sniper rifle is a high-precision, long-range rifle. Requirements include high accuracy, reliability, mobility, concealment, and optics, for anti-personnel, anti-materiel and surveillance uses by military snipers. The modern sniper rifle is a portable shoulder-fired rifle with either a bolt action or semi-automatic action, fitted with a telescopic sight for extreme accuracy and chambered for a high-ballistic performance centerfire cartridge.
20th century
During the Second Boer War, the latest breech-loading rifles with magazines and smokeless powder were used by both sides. The British were equipped with the Lee–Metford rifle, while the Boers had received the latest Mauser Model 1895 rifles from Germany. In the open terrain of South Africa, the marksman was a crucial component in battle. The Lovat Scouts was a British Army unit formed in 1899 that was renowned for the expert marksmanship and stalking skills of its personnel. The men wore ghillie suits for camouflage and were expertly skilled in observation. Hesketh Hesketh-Prichard said of them that "keener men never lived".[5] After the Boer War, the Scouts became the first official sniper unit in the British Army.

My name is Rodmund, and I come from far away.
My country is called Thiuda; or at least we call it that, but our neighbors - that is, our enemies - call it by different names: Saksa, Nemet, Alaman.

What a rabbit hole. Even though #Cappa uses #Rich internally, forcing colors with `FORCE_COLOR=1` did not work.
After a super painful investigation, turns out my #Python code imports a module from #Copier which uses `colorama.init()`.
Changing that to `colorama.just_fix_windows_console()` fixed it, but the output still had an extra reset sequence at the end.
Turns out Copier imports #Plumbum colors module, which registers a function to reset styles at exit.
Don't run things at import time!
