Underground, overground waddling free…

The Hand and Heart is one of the more unusual venues in Nottingham, being partly built into the caves near the castle. Whilst we intend to kick-off at 1930 as usual, you may wish to arrive early and have some of the rather excellent food they have on offer in the restaurant.

There’s no big talk planned, more just a general discussion on recent happenings. Topics could include:

• Why SSH beats your VPN into a cocked hat.
• The BBC hates freedom (as does ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5, Sky….)
• How to (maybe) make a Pi run fasterer for not much. Reliably (maybe) even fastererer for a smidge more.
• The ‘best’ to approach the coming switch from Upstart to systemd that will affect Ubuntu and derivative users.
• Getting announcements out in a timely manner/boosting membership.
• An argument about why systemd is better.
  • No it isn’t.
  • Yes it is.
  • No it isn’t, it’s monolithic and doesn’t follow the Unix way.
  • Neither do many things and systemd is modular – so shut-up.
  • Right you, outside!
• How to upload amusing ‘minor fracas’ videos to YouTube.
