<div dir="ltr">I'm also still subscribed, it's nice to see people are still here, and plenty of people I recognise from the meetings at Maidstone and Ashford. I had to go back to using Windows mostly on the desktop as my family needed MS Office for school (I finally gave in). Still have Debian on my home server and run Linux on all the Raspberry pi's; running Octoprint for my 3d printer and various fun electric projects. So although Linux is no longer a primary OS for me, KentLug really introduced me to a great hobby of tinkering. I just got 3 Pi Picos, what a fantastically cheap microcontroller they are, these are going to go in everything :-)</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 1 Feb 2021 at 18:50, James Mulligan via Kent <<a href="mailto:kent@mailman.lug.org.uk">kent@mailman.lug.org.uk</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Count me as another lurker and desktop linux user. <br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 1 Feb 2021 at 09:54, Tris Linnell via Kent <<a href="mailto:kent@mailman.lug.org.uk" target="_blank">kent@mailman.lug.org.uk</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div>I am still here, I read the messages, but I use Linux less.

morning because in fact 123-reg renewed it and charged me so I
complained and they are going to refund me. I thought I had it
set to not renew automatically but apparently they changed the
settings so that the default was to renew - so they renewed it for
6 years - the period we paid for last time and charged me £115.
I've just seen that they have processed the refund which means
we'd have to pay an admin fee of £75 to get it back. However you
may find that you can get it if you wait a short period.</p><p>I'm still a linux user - that and some Android. In fact it's

Just to let you know that the domain <a href="http://kentlug.org/" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">kentlug.org</a>, which was held on
my <br>
123-reg account, expired today. As there has been no
activity on the <br>
domain for so long I saw little point in paying to renew it.<br>
