April WLUG meeting to be online
Hey Gang, I hope everybody is staying safe and healthy. While Linux doesn't need virus protection, we do. Wash your hands you filthy animals. As the subject reads, we're going to be doing the WLUG meeting online. I've been active in the wlug-ma irc channel as have others. What do people think about Jitsi for doing a video meetup? Refreshments will not be provided and we won't be going out for dinner!! Stay home, stay safe and I hope we'll all get to see each other soon. Later, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
I never got my webcam working, but I'll give Jitsi a try. On Tue, Mar 31, 2020 at 10:35 AM Tim Keller via WLUG <wlug@lists.wlug.org> wrote:

A buddy of mine runs one. I'll pick his brains regarding what it needs for bandwidth and horsepower. I suspect I've got sufficient quantities of that at my house. If not, I'll think about spinning up a droplet. Tim. On Wed, Apr 1, 2020, 6:45 AM Chuck Anderson via WLUG <wlug@lists.wlug.org> wrote:

Can you advise the group on instructions to join in when/if possible? ________________________________ From: Tim Keller via WLUG <wlug@lists.wlug.org> Sent: Wednesday, April 1, 2020 9:31 AM To: Worcester Linux Users' Group General Discussion <wlug@lists.wlug.org> Cc: Chuck Anderson <cra@wpi.edu>; Tim Keller <turbofx@gmail.com> Subject: [WLUG] Re: [EXT] April WLUG meeting to be online What fun is that ;-) On Wed, Apr 1, 2020 at 9:29 AM Chuck Anderson via WLUG <wlug@lists.wlug.org<mailto:wlug@lists.wlug.org>> wrote: Or we could just use the one they host: https://meet.jit.si/ On Wed, Apr 01, 2020 at 08:42:56AM -0400, Tim Keller wrote:

Hi! When is the meeting? BTW, I have *piles* of (mostly Dell) hardware for sale (donation? either is overly complicated..). Everything from an old Dimension E530 desktop to a Poweredge R515 with 12TB of internal disk (both already running CentOS 6.10). A whole roomfull of Optiplex 740s and 580s, an R300, two R415s, etc. In a few weeks I'll also have a couple of Synology RS2416+ units with expansion chassis. I can forward a complete list if anyone is interested. Most of the equipment is in Worcester, where I work. Stay safe! Pete in Sutton On 3/31/2020 10:34 AM, Tim Keller via WLUG wrote:

Hey Pete - I would be interested in the 580 and the R415s. I can come by tomorrow when convenient. Let me know if that works for you. On Wed, Apr 8, 2020, 1:07 PM Pete Wason via WLUG <wlug@lists.wlug.org> wrote:

I would be happy to attend for a jitsi meetup. I might even be willing to give a lecture about why I welcome Fedora to be on Lenovo laptops. md On Tue, Mar 31, 2020 at 10:35 AM Tim Keller via WLUG <wlug@lists.wlug.org> wrote:
