ABUG online #76, Tuesday 6th November 2023, 7pm - 10pm (GMT)

[BigEd]

On Tuesday there will be an ABUG General Session, at 7, on zoom. (General Sessions run on Tuesdays, every three weeks. If you don't have the zoom coordinates, send a PM or ask in this thread. We don't publish them!)

- keep it interesting, or otherwise keep it brief
- keep it Acorn until 9pm
- encourage everyone who wants to, to join in, and to have the space to join in.
- Feedback always welcome, on the night or afterwards

Please use the chat, or PMs in the chat, to update me on anything, like the passage of time, or someone who has something to say. And let me know if you'll be needing to leave early.

Come and join in, to share the enjoyment we get from Acorn computing: things we bought, things we want, things we remember, things we've discovered, things we've learnt, things we've lost (but not things we've forgotten). Games, music, repairs and refurbishments, bargains found (and overpriced items left well alone.) Full attics and leaky sheds.

Acorn-related things, mostly, but we can talk about other things too.

If we go a bit technical and it starts to feel like a Dev Night, that's possible too - but on average a general session should be about half as technical as a dev night.

For a flavour of a typical General session, see this previous thread.

For a bit of a heads-up nearer the time, subscribe to this thread using the spanner gadget below - I'll bump the thread beforehand.

Note that maintaining a calendar for reminders is now up the individual - each type of session runs every other week. There are no formal invitations for these sessions: we reuse the zoom coordinates from previous sessions.

Ah, yes, ahem, there is an issue here - Cruxinc, I gather you're only 15, which is why your PMs are not enabled. And, I think, for safety, it would be better if you don't join us online - we don't have any safeguarding process for our zoom calls. Sorry about that. Only a temporary thing, in a sense.

ok i understand, just wanted to let you know that my parents intended to watch with me (safeguarding etc)
i didn’t intend to talk about anything, just watch.

As I say, sorry. It's just all too difficult from my side, as the host.
