Heh, I haven't used irc for over a decade now, and never was a big irc user. Maybe I'll try to join up thursday night. I've been messing around with ATTiny85 chips and programming them from Linux lately. Need to get off my duff and do more with it. Ideally I'll be able to give a talk about KiCAD and designing boards with Linux (and windows) software. Very cool stuff. John

That's too bad, but it's reasonable. I'm awfully rusty on IRC.

Physical WLUG Meeting is cancelled tomorrow...

by Tim Keller

I'm cancelling the physical WLUG meeting for March. WPI just put out a notice that they're closed for all events/meetings and I've been contacted by several members that they're going to be staying home out of an abundance of caution or they're under the weather... I'll be in our IRC channel tomorrow night and we can continue the fun online! Hopefully things will calm down for April. Stay safe.

WLUG Meeting March 12th 2019!

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody, We've got a meeting! Date @ Time: March 12, 2019 @ 7pm Location: WPI Student Center Rm 129 (Chairman's Conference Room) at the bottom of the stairs. Topic: TBD but I thought we might talk about subsonic and plex. I guess we should also talk about people working remotely and the technologies that exist on linux for remote desktop access as well. Refreshments and snacks will be provided and we'll head off for dinner afterwards. Sorry for the last notice. Later, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
