Keep the faith. I had planned to be there,
but I fell and sprained my ankle.
Getting between the bed, bathroom, and armchair,
is about all the moving I want to do.
I haven't fogotten you and I hope to see you next month.

Re: Comparing distro packages
by Dennis Payne
I know openalchemist is there. I have it installed. I maintain
ostrichriders and btbuilder. I alerted the maintainer of shippy to my
updated version of that program.
What I'm interested in knowing, is when something is included in Fedora
but not Debian. This doesn't have to be limited to Fedora and Debian.
They just happen to be the ones I'm looking at. If you give a demo of
say openalchemist at a user group meeting, it would be nice to be able
to say it is available on Fedora and FreeBSD but not Debian. There is a
PPA for Ubuntu.
I stumbled on this wiki page for Debian which compared it to Fedora 20
but I have no idea how up to date it is:

Hey Gang,
I'm going to move the meeting to August 15th.
If you've got a topic idea, let me know. Otherwise, we can either do an
open topic meeting.
Thanks,
Tim.

WLUG Meeting July 18th 2019 NOTE: Location Change: WPI Campus Center: Morgan Room
by Tim Keller
Hey Everybody!
We've got a meeting this Thursday July 18th at 7PM!
Location: WPI Campus Center: Morgan Room (main floor hallway to the left of
the front desk)
Topic: Pi 4
I thought we might talk about the pi 4. I'm going to grab the 1GB version
so we'll have a sample device to poke at. I'd really like the 4GB version,
but those are a bit hard to find..
I'll have it, plus a pi 3 and an assortment of older pi's as well.
As usual snacks and refreshments will be provided and we'll head off for
dinner to continue to the conversation.
Thanks,
Tim.

Next Meeting moved to July 18th 2019
by Tim Keller
Hey Gang,
I'm moving the meeting down a week since I'll be on vacation next week.
The meeting will be on July 18th.
I'd love to do a comparison of a pi 4 vs. a pi 3, but buying a 4GB pi 4 is
a bit challenging...
If someone already has one and could bring it, that would be awesome, if
not we'll have to think of a different topic. Yeah, I know you can buy a
1GB/2GB pi 4... but really why would you do that.
Thanks,
Tim.

Reminder: June WLUG meeting TODAY! Topic: Side Channel Attacks.
by Tim Keller
Hey Everybody,
We've got a meeting today, Thursday June 13th at 7PM!
Location: WPI Campus Center Mid-Century room (rm 331) aka, the usual haunt.
After last meeting we ended up having a side conversation regarding the now
multiple side channel attacks that the Intel microarchitecture is
vulnerable to.
I thought it might be a good time to actually deep dive what these are, why
they keep happening, why they're likely to continue and what efforts are
being put in to try to mitigate them and the effects these migrations have
on performance.
As usual snacks and refreshments will be supplied and afterwards we'll head
off for dinner to continue the conversation!
Thanks,
Tim.
