My first thought was what the hell is going down in Geogia? then I realised this isn’t about the nation in the Caucasus, but in the US, so that tracks.

I did not know that, I assumed they wrote pipx to mean pip/pip3. Thanks for pointing that out.

That might work but it is recommended to not install packages outside of virtual environments as it might lead to conflicts between versions across different projects.

You can run it in an virtual environment:

python -m venv someproject source someproject/bin/activate

Then you can run the commands in the git README you posted.

pip …

Will will install the include files needed within this virtual environment. Alternatively you can do

apt install …

Instead of using pip. Your python script should run within the virtual environment.

This is a common misconception:

Contrary to popular belief, diplomatic missions sometimes do not enjoy full extraterritorial status and are generally not sovereign territory of the represented state.

From wikipedia

Not sure but I think the limiting rate is actually Python syscalling the kernel rather than the actual GPIO hardware.
