Reminder! Meeting April 9th, 2015, 7pm Rm 331 (Mid-Century Room)

by Tim Keller

Hey Gang! The next WLUG meeting is upon us! I've dropped the ball a bit and haven't lined up a speaker yet... If anybody has a pressing urge for something to speak about, by all means let me know! Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

>You forgot to tell us What T... is a cryproparty? That's a very good question; sorry for not explaining earlier. A cryptoparty <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptoparty> is an event where people get together to learn about encryption and communications privacy. >Is it a keysigning? > >"plan to cover" makes it sound like a lecture. > >Installfest? There's a bit of a lecture component, but I usually think of cryptoparties as workshops. I find they work best when people bring laptops, to set up and try the software (GnuPG and Jitsi in this case). In that sense, they're a little like installfests (e.g., the "help you install and set up" part). That said, laptops aren't a requirement; it's okay to hang out, listen and watch. Since GnuPG is one of the topics, there will probably be some keysigning involved. >"Party" makes it sound purely social. >Drink wine and solve cryptograms? Perhaps after the cryptoparty :) Steve

Hello Worcester Linux Users Group! My name is Steve and I'm a Linux user who lives in the Boston Area.

Another plus is that it isn't based on Broadcom (not very OSS friendly), it can decode more codecs in hardware, and it doesn't require any codec licenses to be purchased. Downsides are lack of separate audio and composite video outputs and lack of HDMI CEC. Oh and it can't run Windows 10 like the RPi 2 can.

What a great meeting last night! Chuck did a great presentation showing off several different model Pi's plus demoing their use as squeeze box remote media players. He also started to show off the MAME and DVR/MythTV stuff but we all got distracted. I think that could merit a meeting topic all by itself! We had a great show and tell of pi devices. The coolest being the homemade pi based wifi enabled security camera (with infrared LEDs!) To cap the night we ended doing a mini install fest on a "classic" Sony Vaio! Thanks everybody!

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody, This is a reminder that tonight is WLUG! We'll be talking about the Raspberry Pi like devices that are now on the market and the amazing stuff we can do with them. Chuck is going to bring along a Pi like device to show off how open hardware helps speed along the innovation curve! We'll be meeting in the usual spot, the Mid-Century Room (rm-331) at 7pm. I'll bring along snacks and drinks and afterwards we'll go out for pizza! See ya there!

March Meeting Reminder!!!! Thursday March 12th 2015 at 7pm in the Mid Century Room (rm 331)

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody! This Thursday (March 12th) we've got our monthly WLUG meeting! Same bat time, same bat channel! This month we're going to be talking about the Raspberry Pi. It's come along way since the "A" model has come out! Also because the Pi is open lots of compatible Pi like devices have come on the market as well. Chuck has offered to show off his ODROID-C1 <http://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php> I'll bring along my Pi and the GPIO stuff. If you've got a Pi, bring it along and we can talk shop and swap ideas! Per our standard convention I'll bring along the soda and chips and afterwards we'll continue to conversation while stuffing ourselves with Tech Pizza. Later, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

I could bring my ODROID-C1 in, which is similar to Raspberry Pi 2, but with some extra features. We might even have a Raspberry Pi 2 to bring in to compare with. I just upgraded my FreeNAS and loaded the newest Logitech Media Server onto it. I've been reading about how you can run LMS, SqueezeBox emulator clients, and AirPlay-compatible servers on RPi, ODROID, etc. Perhaps I could demo something along those lines. LMS + SqueezeLite allows you to create a whole-house synchronized audio system with multiple listening points over Wi-Fi or ethernet (or each client can stream different things).

Hey Everybody! The next WLUG meeting is Thursday March 12th at 7pm in the mid century room (rm 331)! As of right now, I don't have a speaker lined up! If anybody has an ache to present something, have at it. Otherwise, we could do an open discussion meeting since we haven't had one of those in a while. I know in the past there's been some serious interest in what can be done with a raspberry pi. Like always they'll be refreshments and snacks followed by an egregious consumption of pizza. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
