When: Thursday, May 6, 2021 Time: 19:00 Where: jitsi video conference For those new to Linux, John has a short talk titled: “Surprises after setup”, followed by a hopefully interactive talk titled "BASIC: A retrospective and appreciation for Linux in 2021" After John has finished, Scott will do a talk that is partly inspired by Tug’s discourse on remote management of a system and a need for a TV based video conferencing system. This month’s code: LinuxOttawa20210506 Meeting Details: The meeting URL will now be a fixed URL, https://six.linux-ottawa.org and should be up for connection by 18:30 on meeting nights and will vanish shortly after the meeting has concluded. You will be joining as anonymous guests, so you will not have a username or password. If it asks for a username and password, it has not been started yet. I will be attempting to have it running by 18:45. It may be online earlier, but it should be online by then. Rules/Procedures/Common-Sense: Video and audio will be disabled when you join. In order to make sure the experience is a reasonable one for all involved, the presenter will share their screen-window-whatever they are comfortable with and you will see it quite clearly. Rather than unmute, pressing your space bar will unmute your microphone while pressed, so you can try that to ask questions. There is also the chat window, which no longer appears to obscure the rest of the session (maybe on small monitors?) Feel free to post questions and as opportunity presents itself and the presenter notices, they will get answered. After the presentation is completed, feel free to unmute and have a normal voice/video Q&A.
