  • I wonder, if we apply the strictest rule of “100 years after the death of the last co-author” for the work to enter the public domain worldwide in all jurisdictions (as some have life + 50, 70, and the longest is up to 100), how long do we have to wait to remix Metropolis with no legal repercussions? 71 years to go, more or less?









  • I’ll be honest, with the prices of RAM and storage nowadays, it’s not an ideal moment to start self-hosting. Given that you already have 3.5’’ drives, I suggest going for a NAS form if you can afford it. Also, a multiple app server with Nextcloud won’t work well unless the system has 8 GB RAM at the minimum, preferably 16. Try getting a more modern processor, as those come with support to encode more recent video formats and you mentioned having a media server.
