Hi All,
Sorry, I mostly lurk, but this thread really caught my eye.
* Whiteboard feature for real-time collaboration
I recently finished a graduate level classical mechanics class in Fall
2020. If you think sharing a simple drawing on Zoom is hard, imagine
trying to do 100 hours (no, I'm not

I think that you are complicating it. It makes sense to follow working
path/road taken by others.

You can use mdadm to examine the superblock on each drive and it will
give you the details of the array that the drive thinks it is in.
Without a mdadm.conf, the kernel will attempt to assemble the array
based on what it finds in the drive superblocks and will default to
md127 and count up from the

Yes, that is an interesting question.
What is the appropriate/effective tool that does the work that a real life
blackboard does in a meaningful discussion.
Most of the shared whiteboard software is not effective and is a pain in
the ***.
How do you make an interactive diagram that works?

I was thinking back to the Overhead vs blackboard conversation in the
previous note.
When someone asks a question and you want to diagram something to discuss
what was asked about, we would in-person pick up the pen / chalk and map it
out.

I have a couple short text files of quick reference info with links on the
desktop of a Raspberry Pi. When I need my memory refreshed, I just double
click the icon and it opens the file in the text editor. Since it is a
small 7" screen, I'd like this to open in a large font making it easier to
see.

Hey!
I am not a huge advocate for strict rules with something as in formal as
PLUG, with the distinct exception of code-of-conduct violations, but
here's one: Please have every single link ready that you want to mention!
