August 2023 - WLUG - wlug.mailman3.com

Meeting tomorrow at Technocopia at 7pm!

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody! I know we were just there.. but getting back onto our schedule of the 2nd Thursday of the month means we'll eventually have two meetings close together. Date: August 10th, 2023 Time: 7pm Location: Technocopia in Worcester: 44 Portland St, Worcester, MA 01608 Virtual Location: https://meet.jit.si/WlugMA As for a topic, I haven't really thought one up, but I'm just sure stuff will come up! I'd love people's ideas for what to install on a chromebook that's no longer taking updates.. Bunsenlabs looks promising.. I'll bring snacks and refreshments and afterwards we'll head off for dinner! Later, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

It would be really interesting with a 4K screen and plenty of storage bays (would really like some SATA options for my existing SATA 2.5" drives).

I am also happy either way. My own issue is that due to my work schedule, I often don't know until the last minute if I can attend.

I'm happy either way. Does anyone attending have a camera we could use instead of a laptop? I can bring one if need be. Logistech C920, which works well.

Hey Gang! If we go back to our normal schedule we'll be at Technopia this Thursday. Would that work for people or would next Thursday work? Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
