Happy Friday Everyone! :)

sethu_payilagam: anything significance this friday? or are you wishing generally? happy weekends anyway to all.

:) No shrini.. just in general. I used to say Good day.. so for a changeeee ;)

sethu_payilagam: ok, shrini is not yet active today here, but I see you are already in weekend mode. enjoy!!

sorry sorry mohan43u..

sethu_payilagam: how is the snow there?

snowing for the past 3 days.. but the first snow was a little harsh and heavy.. but after that it is not that much

there was a discussion in our session with Muthu sir this morning.. and he asked me to check with you

sethu_payilagam: what is it?

Is Brave better or at par with mozilla firefox ? he said you mentioned sometime back that it is not opensource?

sethu_payilagam: yeah, break is not truely FOSS, the company behind brave do some shady things, let me search and give you some links related to it

sure mohan43u. right now I am using brave both in my linux machine and in my mobile.. and it is mentioned as opensource.. it was surprising to know about that fact.. but will wait for your links and may be change to mozilla after

for some reason, when i use mozilla.. the machine gets very slow.. not sure if that is just with me or with anyone else.. but it is not the same with brave..

sethu_payilagam: reddit.com/r/browsers/comments/19ax…_you_trust_the_company_behind_brave

sethu_payilagam: see this post about problems in brave

sure mohan43u

sethu_payilagam: >>the machine gets very slow<< yeah, I also lost patient with firefox. I hate to say this, but at this point of time only blink based browsers (chromium, chrome, edge etc.,) are stable/capable/performative

sethu_payilagam: those stupids in mozilla dont want to improve firefox anymore.

sethu_payilagam: so better use chromium or ungoogled-chrome (the only sane browsers without google's tracking)

true mohan43u.. and on the same line.. i asked my kids not to use gmail.. (i dont have full insight but for some reason i dont want them to use gmail) instead they are using protonmail for their personal mailbox. not sure how far they are true to their words. any thoughts?

so better use chromium or ungoogled-chrome (the only sane browsers without google's tracking) => ok mohan43u. I will give that a try. Thanks

hello all

Good morning and a Happy Friday shrini!

hi everyone

Hi Anish!

hi Sethu :)

friends, anyone going to give talk on upcoming kanchilug meet, send your willingness mail to kachilug mailing-list or reply to TLC forum post. It will give some encouragement to new Kanchilug co-ordinator Hariharan

mohan i have some exams till 31st, i think i might do after that

sethu_payilagam: anish hello

hi shrini :)

have good exam times

annamalai: we need speakers for kanchilug meet

reply here, if you can give a talk

shrini I don't think this week but I do have some ideas on starting to self host a irc bouncer on my old laptop maybe I can give related to that in future

currently started to looking on soju and caddy

ok

just check if you can give any easy talks like

interesting CLI tooks

or git intro

even libreoffice intro also fine

we need speakers to run the meetings

if no speakers, then no meetings

still, this is volunteer activity only

but, we have to put some efforts to move the activities

I am going out on sunday

sethu_payilagam: your plan?

I will send the mail now shrini.

fo basic pdf generation using python

shrini sure

thanks annamalai

hi shrini```

hi itz_mr_evil

still awake?

happy to see we got many speakers

for your first kanchilug meet

itz_mr_evil: from next time, accept only 3 talks and move the extra talks to next meet

so that we can have time for any additional discussions too

this is just my thoughts

its fine to have to mnay talks

but dont allow more than 4

i was pinged you to ask the same

shrini another request for posting in tlc i require a api token can you create it ?

for this week i can do manually no issues on that

got almost all details from parameshwar need to take kanchilug youtube channel editor access

Your words make sense. I will follow that from next weekly discussion

sure

you can ask to paramesh itself for any training

get the code to publish the things automatically

i got it by today

*yesterday its done

shrini :)

annamalai your're going to give talk on distrobox right ?

itz_mr_evil yes

itz_mr_evil: sent you the api key for TLC in email

received shrini thanks

itz_mr_evil if needed i can also switch mine to next week as 4 talks can become a overload

no issues annamalai i have already scheduled you can split your talk into two parts like a small intro and little demo other part can be continued next week

This is my suggession

is it okay to you annamalai:

fine. I'll consider this if it takes more time.

thanks annamalai for your talk porposals
