Cool cody.  Thanks for hosting it for so long.  Hope everything goes well for you in your future endeavours.

It was indeed a fun decade, especially traveling to Portland together to 
attend a Release party or two with James, B.

Wishing you the best of luck with work, and your future endeavors.

As for myself hosting, I'm recently getting more involved with robotics 
and radio technologies through my participation with the electronics 
club over at Chemeketa.
I'm currently helping with the VEX-U robotics competition, along with 
organizing FCC exam testing at the college. Our goal for FCC testing is 
to provide a consistent place for our LoCo community to get their 
Amateur radio Technician Class license. Of course I'm involved with the 
Electronics club, and occasionally the new Makerspace here in Salem.  So 
if anyone is interested in Hosting the Salem Ubuntu Hour, please keep in 
mind there is the possibility of meeting at the Makerspace, although I 
prefer to meet at Broadway coffeehouse, because it is more centrally 
located downtown near bus stops.


It's something to think about, all this LoCo tech stuff started more 
than a decade ago at our LoCo Ubuntu Hour, amazing to see the growth of 
so many tech clubs from a single seed planted more than a decade ago.
Thanks Linux/Ubuntu community, and everyone for your awesome community 
support.


P.S. Even though this Friday, Jan 26th is not our normally scheduled 
Ubuntu meet up, I will be at Broadway coffeehouse this evening at 6 pm, 
so feel free to stop by to say Hi!


'twas a fun decade indeed. Ciao for now
Your Friend,
Trekkie Techie Phil. - Co-founder of Microportal, the Electronics Club.

at 5PM, and I get home at about 6:30.

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour

Yeah you too.  I have been using PIA(Private Internet Access) for a long time.  Does ProtonVPN have port forwarding capabilities?  Also how is the app with split tunnels and stuff? I like Thunderbird a lot despite its slow progression I follow many of the devs on twitter and they have been posting lots more teaser pictures.  I think it will continue to improve.  Another good option is Mailspring.   Just a side note since Cody and I were talking about it and we didn’t get a chance to exchange friend codes.  If anyone has a Steam Deck you can add me if you are so inclined.  Maybe we have similar gaming habits.  My Steam friend code is 50349520 Ryein  From: Philip NSent: Friday, January 20, 2023 11:26 PMTo: Ubuntu Oregon LoCo Team; Steve LangasekSubject: Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour Thanks Steve for your advice, I will keep exploring new things about Proton.I've been using their VPN on my Ubuntu 20.04 laptop for a while now, and so far I really like ProtonVPN. Good seeing Cody, and Ryein at the meeting this evening, plus was able to find out new things regarding Thunderbird as well.BTY: ProtonMail runs in Thunderbird mail via Proton Gateway app ;-) Cheers, P.N.  On Fri, Jan 20, 2023 at 5:28 PM Steve Langasek <steve.langa...@ubuntu.com> wrote:On Fri, Jan 20, 2023 at 05:14:40PM -0800, Philip N wrote:> Hey Ryein, Cody, Looks like time is permitting, so I'll be there, although> I may be a bit late.> Regarding Proton mail, it's not secure when sending to non-proton users -> there used to be a way to add your own public-key into Thunderbird mail,> not sure if that is still doable,> See ya soon.> Phil.

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Feeling abandoned?

[Ryein Goddard]

Yeah I use Kubuntu personally and was looking forward to a more Qt 
centric development on Ubuntu and I was watching development of Unity.  
Very sad.  Hopefully the community picks it up and just makes it better.


Anyway, I am going to try and make it.

Disconsolate over the end of Unity?


…and sad to see Qt development in Ubuntu diminish? No worries, there's 
always Kubuntu! In fact, if the change of desktop environment is the 
issue there are plenty of [others][1].


I'm kind of screwed this year as far as time is concerned but maybe 
making a release party around flavors might actually be a good thing. 
As a contributor to two flavors, I can say they don't get nearly as 
much attention as Ubuntu proper does, but there's some exciting stuff 
going on there. Anyone want to organize such a thing? I'm sure I could 
wrangle funding from Canonical.

Yeah I won't be able to make it either.  Not feeling so hot.  Got sick

I have been contacted by Rossella, who would like to know more about 
the Command Line Interface (CLI), so it could be taught at one of the 
schools here in Salem.  So if anyone is interested in teaching a class 
on Linux CLI in Salem, please let me know.


Rossella has not yet RSVPed the invitation I sent her, regarding this 
evening's Ubuntu meeting, so don't know if she can make it or not.

I'll be there at the new tables next to the fireplace... ;-)

 There's a set of meeting rooms that COULD do perfectly, the venue has
 decent wifi (albeit unprotected, which is something I am not too keen 
 on),
 I'd probably have to see about the food and drink. and the venue is
 something that has to be booked beforehand and isn't free. So, I guess
 we'll see what Walter says, I'll see if I can ping him tonight or
