[03:43:55] Gentoo/rizon I wanted to listen to music, but I didn't head it in that video

[03:46:05] Gentoo/rizon !bang

[03:46:07] Gentoo/rizon !bang

[03:46:09] Gentoo/rizon !bang

[03:46:11] Gentoo/rizon !reload

[03:46:12] Gentoo/rizon !bang

[03:47:57] Gentoo/rizon Ehh, google is nastily throttling my IPs, so yt-dlp+mpv isn't working too well for 1080p video.

[04:42:53] Gentoo/rizon Nice, but what license?

[04:43:37] Gentoo/rizon So it's proprietary?

[04:44:29] Gentoo/rizon Since unless you select a free software license for a game, it becomes proprietary, as the Berne convention makes it that every copyrightable work is proprietary by default

[04:45:46] Gentoo/rizon It's worldwide unless you like in like Palestine; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berne_Convention?useskin=monobook

[04:46:10] Gentoo/rizon Merely because the game is gratis doesn't mean it respects your freedom.

[04:46:28] Gentoo/rizon I have no problem paying for free software if there's a good reason to.

[04:47:31] Gentoo/rizon It really isn't that hard to throw files at nginx.

[04:48:00] Gentoo/rizon Merely because it's inconvenient to run the software doesn't justify making it proprietary.,

[04:48:03] Gentoo/rizon !bang

[04:48:04] Gentoo/rizon !reload

[04:48:08] Gentoo/rizon !bang

[04:54:05] Gentoo/rizon !shoot Kuro-chan

[04:54:46] Gentoo/rizon There's no years of legal technicalities, it's all of 40 seconds of selecting a license.

[04:56:08] Gentoo/rizon Kuro-chan, Proprietary hosting wouldn't give you an option to conveniently not make it proprietary. Who would have thought?

[04:56:27] Gentoo/rizon They're both bad licenses, but Apache is much better than MIT expat.

[04:56:49] Gentoo/rizon Anything in the GPL family.

[04:56:56] Gentoo/rizon All BSD licenses are terrible.

[04:57:54] Gentoo/rizon You keep your copyright if you license under any license in the GPL family.

[04:58:36] Gentoo/rizon Everyone is given the freedom to run, modify and share the software, the only thing restricted is the ability to turn the software proprietary, which you should not allob.

[04:58:38] Gentoo/rizon *allow

[04:59:16] Gentoo/rizon MIT expat and all the BSD licenses allow making the software proprietary, meaning you're effectively doing work for proprietary software companies without getting paid if it's any good.

[04:59:34] Gentoo/rizon MIT published many licenses and not just one

[05:00:07] Gentoo/rizon Kumool, I recommend the AGPLv3-or-later and applying that is as simple as including the license as a file and noting what the license applies to in a README (although a license header for each non-trivial file is strongly recommended).

[05:00:43] Gentoo/rizon https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html

[05:03:49] Gentoo/rizon wez, Really, the only way you can ensure that the software is both free and yours for sure is to license under the AGPLv3-or-later.
