Next WLUG meeting proposal
Guys, Tim & I both have conflicts on alot of Thursdays in May for the regular WLUG meeting. We'd like to see how people feel about moving it to either May 8th or May 15th instead this month. We're still checking with Technocopia to make sure we will have access on either of those days, but we wanted to reach out and make sure the rest of you are ok with this change. Thanks, John (and sorta Tim)
Hey John, It's tough to go by me as I have not attended in too long a while. I can say for me personally May 8th is booked. The 15th looks ok. If I'm not able to attend either will do my best to view on line Ron ________________________________ From: John Stoffel via WLUG <wlug@lists.wlug.org> Sent: Thursday, May 2, 2024 3:51 PM To: Worcester Linux Users' Group General Discussion <wlug@lists.wlug.org> Cc: John Stoffel <john@stoffel.org> Subject: [WLUG] Next WLUG meeting proposal Guys, Tim & I both have conflicts on alot of Thursdays in May for the regular WLUG meeting.

Unfortunately the 15th doesn't work for me either.. The 8th is definitely safe. May the 4th be with everybody! Tim. On Fri, May 3, 2024, 9:55 AM THE HAMMER via WLUG <wlug@lists.wlug.org> wrote:

Are you kidding!? It's the most dangerous holiday ever!

Hurray, Hurray, for the Eighth of May, national outdoor intercourse day! https://www.holidayinsights.com/moreholidays/may/national-outdoor-intercours... That's OK, I can rearrange my schedule and make time for a jit.si session. Last time people had trouble hearing me. I tested my microphone by asking Diane to let me into her Zoom account. We sat in the living room 3m apart and tried to talk through headphones and our respective computers and OSes. It put up a big button that said "Download Zoom Ap" with misgivings I clicked it. It put a *.deb (Debian) file on my computer, but did not install it (thank GNU). Then I noticed a much smaller button that said "Use Browser". When I clicked that it all worked just fine. Diane and I could Video chat through wifi, Spectrum's router, and (I assume) some Zoom server somewhere. So the hardware works. I think somebody in a previous message hinted that there were audio hardware configuration options in the Jit.Si web page. Does anybody have any thoughts? Using Debian kwright@fcs26:~$ cat /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)" and Firefox 102.15.1esr (64-bit) on a Intel core i7 vPro Thinkpad with Logitech H390 USB headset. -- Keith
Sounds like the 8th is a GO! Now for the topic.. Tim. On Sat, May 4, 2024 at 5:38 PM Keith Wright <kwright@keithdiane.us> wrote:

Excellent! I'll be there.
Now for the topic..
If my hearing has returned after an evening of Bad Religion and Social Distortion, I'll talk a little about the new KiCAD. But I haven't got a new demo done yet. Send out the jitsi link again Tim so we all have it handy.
