Benjamin Turnbull will tell us about Qubes OS, a "reasonably secure operating system".
Tim Laurence automated the watering system for his garden using a Raspberry Pi. He will tell us how he did it. This will be a beginner-friendly presentation.
Khalid Baheyeldin discusses his backup strategies using dump, and Colin Knapp discusses Mail-in-a-Box. See kwlug.org/node/1120 for additional information, slides and other auxiliary materials. Note that this audio has had silences clipped.
Sandeep Johri discusses his journey as a Linux user. See kwlug.org/node/1118 for additional information, slides and other auxiliary materials. Note that this audio has had silences clipped.

Jim Kelsh will offer a beginner-friendly presentation on running Linux in a virtual machine, using Windows 10 as the host operating system.
Colin Knapp will update us on GitLab, the "open core" Git-repository manager. He calls his presentation "Creating Problems to Solve Problems in GitLab". Some of the topics he will cover include:
Note: This meeting will be held at a new location, the Google Community Space. Future meetings will be held at the usual location.

Jim Kelsh demonstrates how to install Linux, and Charlie Drage talks about his work with Kubernetes, Kompose, and Kedge. See kwlug.org/node/1111 for additional information, slides and other auxiliary materials.
Mary Loubele leads a hands-on workshop about installing Elasticsearch and using it to analyse Twitter data. See kwlug.org/node/1113 for additional information, slides and other auxiliary materials. Note that this audio has had silences clipped.
Khalid Baheyeldin has been playing with inexpensive Wifi and Bluetooth enabled microcontrollers. These can be programmed using the Arduino IDE or Micropython (which runs on the chip instead of an operating system). He will tell us about the Internet of Things (IoT) and how to use such microcontrollers to interface devices to things like home automation packages (e.g. Home Assistant), and much more.
Khalid Baheyeldin will talk about the backup strategy he uses at home. He achieves versioned, incremental, off-site backups without relying on third-party services, using the dump utility. This presentation is intended to be accessible to new users.
Update: Khalid has posted his slides on his website: https://baheyeldin.com/linux/presentation-incremental-backup-linux.html
