ScotLUG :: April 30th 2020 :: Remote Lightning Talks

[J J]

Hi,

I normally can't attend but hope to make this virtual meet and am looking
forward to the talks.

Just on a Jitsi Meet call and have notice that the Firefox 75 is no longer
showing a browser warning (not sure if that is due to an update in FF or a
change on the Jitsi side).
CPU use is still high though, with a 6-person call sucking down about 55%
on a Core i7-3520M.
That's using the integrated GPU, might fight again with Bumblebee after the
upgrade to 20.04.

J.
