Topics for next meeting

by Tim Keller

Before the next meeting suddenly appears and we're scrambling for a topic, is there something that people are burning to know about? We talked about doing a talk about plex, I'm not sure how interested people are. Another topic that came up was a talk about setting up a RetroPi system. Another topic that came up later was BitCoin. Personally I've always found bitcoin an enigma. If anybody in the group understands it I'd love to learn about it and possibly what tools there are on linux for mining and storing bitcoins. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Re: Reminder! Meeting Tomorrow Thursday, Oct 10th, 2019: Topic: CAD on linux!

by Robert Schwein

Unfortunately I've taken on the roll of primary health care provider for a family member. Sadly this means me coming to our WLUG meetings will be sporadic at best. I miss the fun.

April WLUG meeting to be online

by Tim Keller

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.

Next WLUG meeting! April 12th, 2018! Location: WPI Student Center, Rm 331. Topic: Secure Linux Distributions

by Tim Keller

Hey Gang, Our next meeting is April 12th, 2018! Would people be interested in talking about security oriented versions of Linux? We all know about Tails, and in consideration of the issues that Richard ran into with getting stuff installed on Kali, it might be interesting to compare / contrast the different options out there. What do people think? I'm thinking this would work best as having a couple of people each showing off a particular distribution. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

If so, sure, that's possible. Does anybody want to volunteer to give this talk, perhaps at the October meeting? After giving 2 talks in a row, you folks are probably sick of hearing from me for a while. :-) Let's avoid the religious war(s) and choose bash since it is used by root by default. Any volunteers?

The speaker for the February meeting has been lined up!

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody, Great news! Andy will be speaking at the Feb. meeting! He's going to be doing a talk on Mesh networking. I figure this will "mesh" nicely with Frank's talk about 802.11*[nn]* networking. Once I get the official title for the talk I'll send out a more official reminder. On a different note... Is there anything that people are interested in that we could work on lining up speakers for? Here's a couple of ideas... * Software defined networking * Robotics * Home automation -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
