# petermolnar anyone aware of a static generator or flat cms that's photographer/portfolio friendly, and has some sort of way to import from wordpress? I'm seriously considering moving a few of the wp instances I host to "something else" but every single time I start looking, something is missing. With the static generators, there's no GUI, tinyMCE, etc; flat cmses aim mainly at blogs and their media handling can get terrible; and nearly none of the

# jeremycherfas I'm listening to Maha's YouTube channel and the audio is just great.
# petermolnar gov.uk design guidelines: no icons or pictograms, for similar reasons: they can get confusing
# petermolnar Maha1: it doesn't require a credit card; I had domain before credit card and used wire transfers
# petermolnar doesn't even need to be paid online
# jeremycherfas Do cellphones in Egypt require credit card? I suspect there are many PAYG.
# wakest[m] @tantek cell phones do not at all require a credit card in many countries
# petermolnar crypto is actually complicated
# petermolnar but Hungary used to run quite behind on the domain selling thing, it required photocopied ID card to reg a .hu till 2013-ish
# petermolnar so yeah, you can certainly have domains without credit cards
# petermolnar Maha1: that's the very definition of history :( written by the majority.
# jess1 i'd actually argue that it's the beauty of Wikipedia - that there are opportunities to write your own history and have those conflicts and necessary discussions
# petermolnar tantek: fair point
# wakest[m] not everyone can eat apples.
# petermolnar not everyone wants apples. not everyone qualified to pick apples. lots and lots of questions/problems
# wakest[m] not everyone can stand up to reach an apple
# [shurcool] It seems unlikely that a tree would only have apples at the exact same height above ground.
# jeremycherfas Shurcool++
# petermolnar [shurcool]: that a very good point :)
# Downes Hiya IRC peeps
# petermolnar Maha1: that's not the open source movement
# jeremycherfas The image isn't about apples, or baseball. It is about the difference between equality and equity. That should be the focus of any discussion it is intended to provoke
# petermolnar "spending your life coding"
# petermolnar that's not it
# petermolnar thank you indeed
# jeremycherfas Maha1++ Good talk
# jackjamieson Maha1++ Thank you Maha, great talk!

# [chrisaldrich] Thanks for the update jgmac1106 (for those of us attending remotely)
# [chrisaldrich] I was in bluejeans a few minutes ago, but the audio dropped out and it looked like I was the only one there...
# [chrisaldrich] I suspect that they may have gone to lunch, but I'm not sure since audio dropped mid-sentence
