Free to a good home: HP PSC 1315xi All in one printer

by Tim Keller

Have you been waiting to get yourself one of those awesome web connected printers, but didn't want to shell out the big bucks? Well... you're out of luck, this is NOT one of those printers. If however, you'd like a reliable inkjet printer that works well with linux, let me know. The scanner / copier / printing functions all work. Better yet, it has new ink cartridges in it as well! Mind you, it is an elderly printer, but I've had zero issues with it. The only con is that HP branded ink cartridges are getting expensive, but the knockoffs work just fine as well. Let me know if you'd like it and I'll hand it over at the meeting tonight. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Re: [Wlug] REMINDER NO MEETING TONIGHT!!!

by Richard Klein

Thanks for the reminder! I've still got it on my calendar for tonight. It's probably been covered before, but I'd love to know more about Docker and VMs, if we need subjects. It's stuff I haven't had time to explore on my own.

MEETING DATE CHANGE!!! May 17th!

by Tim Keller

Talking with Frank, because of commencement, I'm moving the meeting to May 17th. Sorry for any confusion! Date: May 17th, 2018 Time: 7pm Location: Campus Center Mid Century Room 331 (our usual spot) Topic: Future of WLUG mailing list and website I've recently been tinkering with Digital Ocean and it might be a sensible spot where we can host wlug.org and the mailing list. Also I can show off MFA authenication of ssh sessions (likely on a digtial oceans droplet) As usual I'll have refreshments and snacks and we'll head off for dinner (and maybe dessert!) and continue the conversation. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Next Meeting May 10th 2018 Topic: TBD

by Tim Keller

Hey Gang, Our next meeting is May 10th, 2018. Topic: To Be Decided If there's something someone would like to talk about, let me know and we'll set it up. Here are a couple of ideas: 1. Digital Ocean Cloud Droplet stuff (possibly around hosting wlug mail) 2. Configuring MFA authentication on SSH. Beyond that we'll likely talk about when we'd like the BBQ and other stuff we'd like to talk about.

Re: [Wlug] Digital Ocean

by Chuck Anderson

This looks cool: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-run-your-own-mail-s… I would prefer if there was a turnkey solution for Mailman 3, Postorius, and Hyperkitty. I had played around with those a bit several years ago when they were new. Hyperkitty allows participation in the mailing lists via a web forum interface.

I've got my mail hosted on a Digital Ocean droplet and I'm very happy. For approx $72 a year I get a full Linux system with 1gb of RAM and 20gb of SSD storage.
