Plymouth LUG meeting report – July 2019

Posted on 2019-07-27 by Paul Sutton

With Café Fandom closed again, possibly for good, we regrouped at the Crown and Anchor on Southside Street. Topics included:

  • The National Museum of Computing : definitely worth a visit if you like retro computing.
  • The Yalp Store : a way to install Google Play Store apps without having to install the Google Play Store (good if you have a de-googled Android phone (e.g. Lineage OS, Fairphone Open) but can’t avoid the odd closed-source app
  • Raspberry Pi 4 – hot as the sun, non-compliant with USB C, and rare as hen’s teeth
  • Debian Buster
  • GDPR – has it improved things?
  • Controlling your kid’s internet access
  • Deep learning, picture classification
  • Floppy drives orphaned by Linux kernel
  • First experiences of Linux
  • Emax (yes, Emax, although I did also have an Emacs t-shirt on…) and SCSCI2SD
  • IT in Special Needs
  • LAN gaming on Linux

From the August meeting, Plymouth LUG will move to the Moments Café.
