UnicodeDecodeError

Hi there,

i try to reproduce the example from the start page and i get the following error:

from talkingheads import PiClient
chathead = PiClient()
Traceback (most recent call last):

It appears that the program is unable to decode the output of the google-chrome --version command. You can manually specify your current Google Chrome version by using the driver_version argument when instantiating, for example PiClient(driver_version=128).

Please also provide the output of <path-to-google-chrome> --version via the command line (or PowerShell), to help me observe the output of the command.
