I have Python installed but apparently it can't find it

[logicguy1]

Did you add python to PATH during installation?

am i an idiot or an idiot?

both. for your first screenshot, you're using MSYS2 at the home directory, and obviously you didn't clone the repo to there; in the second screenshot, you're in the Python shell, so obviously shell commands won't work; and in a followup screenshot we observed that because you weren't in the directory where you cloned the repo, requirements.txt wouldn't exist! (and by the way, it's installed as py on your system, not python. don't know why, it's pretty weird.)

@logicguy1 close this issue, it's clearly off-topic and is not a demonstration of an issue with the project
