[Rustington] Portsmouth and South East Hants LUG - virtual meet April 17th

You know the drill by now.. we're on Jitsi (noting the subtle update of 
the password from last year, although there is now a lobby so you should 
be spotted and let in if you forget it) the next online PLUG meet 
Saturday. See you there or, well, erm, not I guess - it is purely 
voluntary, but we still don't bite and we have not plans to.

The meet will be slightly later than our in person meets at 2pm to give 
everyone enough time to have lunch - virtual sandwiches aren't as filling!

With any luck my connection will be just about adequate to cope and I 
will try very hard not to grumble about Openreach failing to fix my 
connection and then almost, but not quite getting it back to where it 
was (14Mbps is a truly blistering FTTC speed). I will also try very hard 
not to moan about Virgin having cancelled my new line install twice 
because the council have paved over the access and they need permission 
to sort that out.

To join head to:

I'm not sure whether Jitsi has issues with random people joining, but 
just in case I will set a password of 'sat21'. If for some reason the 
URL above has been grabbed I will update via the list and website (you
don't seem to be able to reserve them).

I use Firefox, but I have heard that some have had issues and recommend 
Chrome or Chromium. There is also an app that you will be asked to 
download if you are using Android or Apple (it is also available through 
F-Droid).

If anyone wants to join by phone I can email a code when the meeting 
starts (I don't think it gets created until then with Jitsi), but I have 
no idea where you stand on call costs. It came up at the IWPCUG / IOWLUG 
meet and I investigated.

See and/or hear you there - so to speak!

Keep safe.

Thanks,
Paul
