Closest subway exits in order are Jay St - MetroTech Station (A, C, R, & F Trains) Borough Hall (4 & 5 Trains). Notice: Location Change. You should RSVP for this meeting at rsvp AT lists.nycbug.org. You should receive an autoresponse email. Your email address is sufficient verification for entry. Do not expect manual replies to emails to RSVP@ This talk grew out of the experience of going on vacation with only a $100 Pinebook and trying, and succeeding to get work done. Roughly the topics will be: Installation and Updates - possibly automating them Setup after the first boot Battery monitoring with envsys framework tmux - the "GUI" of choice Network connectivity and wireless sudo setup pkgin and binary packages Email with mutt Using external media - USB sticks and CDs/DVDs - with and without sudo Audio Ripping CDs Various audio formats Podcasts Typesetting Typesetting with *roff Typesetting with tex / latex I don't want to give a list of tools only. I would like to discuss more about how they work - for example battery monitoring uses envsys framework that can read various sensors and I have a sample program to demonstrate it. Envsys can react when sensors reach critical values - for exampe when the battery is almost depleted or when the CPU gets hot. Email needs authentication - what the various options are. Wifi - wpa_supplicant is great if you use just a couple of networks, for example work and home; how we scan for wireless networks, how we sniff them. Ivan Ivanov is a Bulgarian software developer currently working for a financial company in New York City. Offsite Participation: We plan to stream via NYC*BUG Website unless the speaker requests otherwise. Q&A will be via IRC on Libera.chat channel #nycbug - Please preface your questions with '[Q]' From announce at lists.nycbug.org Thu Mar 7 03:57:31 2024 From: announce at lists.nycbug.org (NYC*BUG Announcements) Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2024 03:57:31 -0500 Subject: [announce] NYCBUG March 2024: NetBSD for the Advanced Minimalist, By Ivan "Rambius" Ivanov Video Posted Message-ID: Youtube: https://youtu.be/-75TQMbar1Y ToobNix (Peertube) https://toobnix.org/w/84kE7QicaHhih9j8dJz3uP From announce at lists.nycbug.org Wed Mar 20 19:20:08 2024 From: announce at lists.nycbug.org (NYC*BUG Announcements) Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2024 19:20:08 -0400 Subject: [announce] Next NYC*BUG: 20 Years of NYC*BUG and Can We Handle 20 More?, George Rosamond 2024-04-03 @ 19:45 EDT (23:45 UTC) Message-ID: 20 Years of NYC*BUG and Can We Handle 20 More?, by George Rosamond 2024-04-03 @ 19:45 EDT (23:45 UTC) More info: https://www.nycbug.org/index?action=view&id=10695 Patrick McEvoy -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
