<br>
Sorry I could not get this out earlier but the exertion was too <br>
much for me.<br>
I had to rest all day Monday and should have rested yesterday but <br>
food called me...<br>
<br>
So I got to the meeting place at Cafe Enchante and setup at the <br>
table in the<br>
alcove where we used to see two or three PC connected to land lines. <br>
The PCs<br>
have been removed and the ethernet connectors are still in the wall.<br>
I got my tablet with the digital copies of the Linux Pro magazine <br>
for the last<br>
year or so set up. I setup my newer Dell Latitude E7450 and was ready to go<br>
but before I could finish that John S showed up and settled in.<br>
<br>
Tom showed up next.<br>
We got online to Jitsi and Ken was there already. Then Dwayne from <br>
San Crux<br>
vicinity logged on as well. Finally Aaron C came online.<br>
<br>
John downloaded and booted up Linux Mint 20.2 in Cinnamon and it looked<br>
very nice on his Dell E6420. At least I think that was what he was using.<br>
<br>
The alcove has a music speaker in it high in one corner and the <br>
background<br>
was not conducive to discussion.<br>
<br>
John and Tom took off early. The noise level I think was discouraging.<br>
I left at 1231 because a live singer started singing religious <br>
songs at a very high<br>
volume in Latin I believe.<br>
<br>
Personally I don't know if I can do this again. I don't think that <br>
Cafe Enchante will<br>
work for meetings on Sunday between 11 AM and 1 PM. At least not until <br>
the Pandemic<br>
is fully resolved.<br>
Covid-19 Delta variant is bad and has provoked the return of indoor <br>
masking.<br>
In case you had missed the constant flood of repetitive information <br>
about Delta<br>
fully vaccinated people can be infected and infect other people because <br>
they may<br>
have no symptoms but a very high viral load in their noses and throats.<br>
Remember how easy it is to spread chicken pox? Delta variant is <br>
just as infectious.<br>
<br>
I am not happy suggesting that we return to our <a href="http://jit.si" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">jit.si</a> meeting <br>
exclusively but that<br>
is what I am doing.<br>
<br>
The next meeting wll be on September 5th from 11 am-1 pm. If the <br>
Covid precautions<br>
lighten maybe we can have an in-person meeting. If we have to be masked <br>
then I think<br>
that we should go back to video meetings.<br>
<br>
If I missed anything interesting the people who showed by video or <br>
in person up can<br>
let us know.<br>
<br>
Oh yes I added the latest versions of GPartEd to the Library as well as<br>
All the updates to the version of PCLinuxOS 64, latest is 2021.08.<br>
4MLinux-37.0-64bit<br>
haiku-r1beta3-x86_64-anyboot.iso<br>
linuxmint-20.2-xfce-64bit.iso<br>
I have the latest Linux Pro digital version and if you love paper <br>
you can get a<br>
recent issue at the Fog City News along with expensive chocolate to <br>
soothe the<br>
chocolate hunger of a significant other or spouse.<br>
