It wouldn't be a huge topic, but I could talk about the RPZ security feature in BIND: https://dnsrpz.info/ On February 23, 2016 4:16:29 PM EST, Tim Keller <turbofx(a)gmail.com> wrote: >Hey Gang, > >Anybody got any ideas for next meeting? > >My buddy Nick is going to be out of the country for the next meeting, >so >he's yet again a no show... > >Thanks, >Tim. > >-- >I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their >constituents as "consumers". > > >------------------------------------------------------------------------ > >_______________________________________________ >Wlug mailing list >Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org >http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.

Meeting tomorrow at Technocopia at 7pm!

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody! I know we were just there.. but getting back onto our schedule of the 2nd Thursday of the month means we'll eventually have two meetings close together. Date: August 10th, 2023 Time: 7pm Location: Technocopia in Worcester: 44 Portland St, Worcester, MA 01608 Virtual Location: https://meet.jit.si/WlugMA As for a topic, I haven't really thought one up, but I'm just sure stuff will come up! I'd love people's ideas for what to install on a chromebook that's no longer taking updates.. Bunsenlabs looks promising.. I'll bring snacks and refreshments and afterwards we'll head off for dinner! Later, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

by Andrew Oprea

Hi Everyone, Is the usual meet.jit.si/WlugMA going to be up for far away participants? I've also got 30 seconds of follow up about what I've learned configuring my minimalist wifi repeater. I'll gladly type it out and mail it here if a mixed mode meeting isn't the plan tonight.

September WLUG Meeting Announcement!

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody, We've got a meeting next week! Date: September 12, 2019 Time: 7pm Location: WPI Campus Center Mid-Century Room (rm 331) aka. the usual haunt Topic: Tinkercad codeblocks and more! I know that a few of us have tinkered with and enjoy using OpenSCAD. However, for many users the learning curve is REALLY steep and this steep learning curve has kept many users away from programmatic shape generation for 3d modeling. Basically writing code to generate a shape. At our last meeting Frank Sweetser showed off something really cool, which is that Tinkercad has now integrated a "scratch" like language into Tinkercad. At this meeting someone will be giving a demo of this. I think we would be remiss if we didn't talk about exFAT and Microsoft's decision to open the patents on it. It *sounds* like we may have exFAT becoming a first class citizen on linux. Is this Microsoft playing some long game of embrace, extend, extinguish or are we moving towards some wild convergence point? In that is the interesting conversation where we think linux will be in another ten years and for that matter Microsoft. As usual, snacks and refreshments will be provided and afterwards we'll head off for dinner and fall deeper down the rabbit hole! Later, Tim. WLUG President -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Re: Jitsi..

by Tim Keller

Microcenter is showing them available on Oct. 23rd. My plan was to drive there directly before going to work and just be waiting at the door and buy one. Yeah, watching some video's I see the same stuff.. that starting with the pi4, you need active cooling.. which saddens me a bit. I'm using one to drive my 3d printer, and at this point the pi4 with the fan is louder than the printer.. Tim.
