Arduino

by E Johnson

I have an Arduino here, never used; new in packaging. This is an Arduino Uno, I guess the original, made in Italy. The kit contains the controller board, a 16 x 2 character LCD module (green screen), and a power supply. See wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arduino I will never use this, but I know someone can. Maybe a fun project for the right kid or parent/child combo to build something with it. Someone should come get this. I am conveniently located near Elm Park, not far from WPI and easy to find. You could drop by on your way to/from the meeting. I could tuck it away out of sight on the front porch for you, with your name on it. Liz J

I use Plex and would love to learn more about it, and about similar things, such as Kodi. I'm also interested in Bitcoin, though, mostly, I want a way to recover the Bitcoin wallet I created (and lost all info for) a couple years ago. However, I realized at the time of the last meeting, that Thursday nights are also open shop night at Worcester Earn-a-bike, which creates a conflict for me.

Reminder! Meeting tomorrow! Apr. 13th, 2017! Topic: glusterfs

by Tim Keller

Hey Gang, Tomorrow we've got a meeting! Time: 7pm Location: WPI Student Center Room 331 Topic: glusterfs What is glusterfs? It's a distributed clustered file system. I recently did a talk about GFS2 and while interesting, it requires centralized storage, a knowledge about stuff like iscsi, etc. It's a beast to setup and isn't that flexible. glusterfs is a different animal. It's a flexible overlay filesystem that let's you take a bunch of basic servers and cluster them into a big homogenous filesystem. If you have four systems, each with 4TB worth of disk, you can make yourself a nice 16TB filesystem, or you can setup an 8TB filesystem with mirroring that spans all the machines or a couple of filesystems that do both depending on your needs. What's great about glusterfs is that it sits atop an existing filesystems on the machines and uses TCP to communicate with both fs clients and the node members. It also has a built in NFS server that allows it to be used by other non linux machines. As usual there will be snacks and refreshments and afterwards we'll head to tech for pizza.
