[Swlug] Getting there

[Rhys Sage]

I have Thonny installed but it doesn't seem to want to give me access to my Pi. I have a Pi Pico that I want to play with. I oopsied when I installed Thonny and said no to the Raspberry option. I'm going to have to work out how to reset Thonny to default values. Not quite sure how to do that.

I didn't get off to a great start. The USB cable I was using turned out to be charging only. I had to hunt to fine another USB cable that was a data cable. I wish they'd mark USB cable clearly as charging only or data only. Having USB cables for charging everything is the craziest thing anybody could ever have done.
