[snarfed] they say CC0 is fine for code, and they discourage others, but only discourage. https://creativecommons.org/faq/#can-children-apply-creative-commons-licenses-to-work-they-create

[mattl] Yeah, I don’t recommend using any CC licenses for code, but CC0 is fine. CC BY-SA is GPL compatible for a reason to give you a get-out.

capjamesg [mattl] I updated my HTML editor to an MIT license now I can use the MIT-licensed trie implementation.
#

carrvo [mattl]++ that is different than what I remember 5-6 years ago so they may have updated it since! Good to know.

#
carrvo [Jo] if you read it's text vs, say, https://choosealicense.com/licenses/unlicense/ then you will find subtle differences. "Public domain", as it turns out, is more of a concept or goal, and you can have different concrete implications with differing side-effects.
#
carrvo [KevinMarks]++ I did not realize that was a side-effect of CC0. Nice!

[social] zachary_kai Congratulations! I created mine in PHP a long time ago and it made things much easier. In my recent update of PHP to modernize I did a minor update to my RSS, but only to .92.

#
zachary.kai social Thank you so much! PHP becomes more of a lifesaver the more I learn to use it.

zachary.kai I've also set up FreshRSS and Etherpad on my VPS! Feels good to have them set up.

#
capjamesg Etherpad is such a good piece of software.
#
capjamesg I have been wanting to try the Google Docs clone that the French government is developing but the setup process is way too complex for me.
#
zachary.kai It is! Oh wow, that's interesting! I'm amazed they're allowed to, but it's good to have backups of things.
#
[mattl] [capjamesg] is it an open source project? I hope they’re working with http://April.org on it.

[mattl] (Did that appear twice for everyone?)
#
[snarfed] yes
#
gRegor yep, on IRC
#
[mattl] Strange. Hopefully it doesn’t keep happening.

[mattl] “Docs is easy to install on your own servers
#
[mattl] Available methods: Helm chart, Nix package” lol
#
capjamesg Yeah 😂
#
capjamesg I don't know what to do with those haha

#
.pi.r2. capjamesg[d] nix has a steep learning curve but I'm super glad to have powered through
#
.pi.r2. helm chart is for kubernetes, unless you want to run a cluster forget it
#
capjamesg _pi_r2_[d] Is there a resource you recommend for the basics of Nix?
#
.pi.r2. happy to help with nix but it's hard
#
.pi.r2. yes 1s
#
.pi.r2. good videos or text?
#
capjamesg Text preferably.
#
.pi.r2. https://zero-to-nix.com/start/ though I thoroughly enjoy https://www.youtube.com/@vimjoyer/videos
#
.pi.r2. could also pair on setting up this specific project once you have installed nix. never use distro packages for that
#
capjamesg Thanks! I need to do some reading 😄
#
.pi.r2. nix ships nix, it just needs a bootstrap

[snarfed] hmm
#
[snarfed] !kick proxik9
#
Loqi proxik9 joined 29260614 minutes ago and can no longer be kicked this way
#
[snarfed] 🤷
#
aaronpk already left anyway
#
[mattl] That’s a good list of proxies to block though.
#
[mattl] What is the best way to mirror a Twitter account to Mastodon and Bluesky? Local transit authority don’t want to post there so I figure I’d do it
#
gRegor Not much experience, but maybe https://bird.makeup/

gRegor [snarfed] is probably aware of some others
#
[mattl] Wired: bird.makeup is already mirroring it
#
[mattl] Tired: it’s not up to date 😞
#
gRegor womp womp :/
#
[mattl] I suspect they’re being API blocked or whatever.
#
gRegor Probably, they got pretty hostile/pricy
