Yeah, if the admins want to specify a license, sooner is better. The stackoverflow content is actually governed by three licenses, as they changed over time, and so they just list date ranges for each one.

This is the one I started with; the ui has changed a little since then, but the basic info is still good I think. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXN7TOg3kj4
Yeah, this matches my impression. Hopefully it won't take 10 years! I was sort of thinking that an explicit statement of open license would encourage some people that it's worth putting their content here.
I mean, it's all very new, but worth considering eventually I think. There are some who would say that you own all the content on your server, so an explicit statement otherwise might not be a bad idea :)
$12/mo goes a long way toward a mini pc or stick pc. Maybe not the right option for everyone, but it's been great for our family.
Put the Lemmy app where the Reddit one used to be. (Or, swap it out for something else that's good for you.)
Lol, on first read I thought Lemmy made you violently ill. Glad you're doing better now.
Oh yeah, I need to call my dad
oh, I've actually been thinking that people in really dry climates must have a great time; I guess the dry air alone isn't enough though!
I use FreeCAD for most of my stuff now, but I found it very, very hard until I watched some video tutorials. After a little training, I'm really happy with it. I tried OpenSCAD, and that can be a really good option depending on your background.
You will also need to choose a slicer, or try some different ones. A lot of people like the prusa slicer, but I've never tried it. I started with the cura slicer, and it worked well enough that I haven't tried anything else. It seems that some people really like the new orca slicer, so that might be a good choice too.
If you can connect a computer to your printer (either raspi, or something else), some software to manage that is definitely helpful. Octoprint is the most popular option, and maybe the only one; so look that up if it's something you think would be relevant for you. There is also something called Klipper for upgrading your printer's firmware. Whether or not that's for a "beginner" depends very much on what their background is, but it's something to consider if the additional features sound worthwhile.
I don't know if these are really the kinds of resource suggestions you had in mind though.
I meant have you considered hosting your own instance? It would be an additional level of control, which may or may not be worth the trouble.
That's a good point, but I think it's also another motivation to have some explicit statement of licensing: people who prefer a different license will know they should move to a different home instance.
