From: Eric Wolf ------------------------------------------------------ NOTE: The Coffee Shop accepts CASH ONLY. I'll be in town for the weekend. So I'm calling the meeting. It's entirely social in nature. For those who don't know, the Coffee Shop happens to be where CHUGALUG was formed. Trying to dig back into ancient history, Higher Technology Services was upstairs in the Doctor's Building. They ran a sizable FidoNet node. Regular lunch meetups occured in the Coffee Shop. Eventually, Mike and Dan decided the BBS needed Usenet feeds so they cobbled together a fractional T1 and, with some help from Robert Wilson, got a pre-1.0 kernel Linux system to connect. Then they leaned about SLIP and realized the same hardware could provide direct connections to the 'Net. Thus was born Chattanooga Online at a time when Mosaic was still a science project at NCSA, the nearest 9600 baud modem was America Online in Nashville, and Windows was for Workgroups. Eventually, HTS/COL moved downstairs directly across from the Coffee Shop. CHUGALUG was formed as a LUG focused on advanced applications of Linux (specifically, we never held installfests like CALUG). The name CHUGALUG came from Larry Burton, one of the Chia regulars. So there's history in them thar tables! -=--=---=----=----=---=--=-=--=---=----=---=--=-=- Eric B. Wolf 720-334-7734 ..more..

From: Eric Wolf ------------------------------------------------------ All, I'll be in Chattanooga next weekend for my daughter's graduation. I've carved out time on Friday for lunch. It's been a few years since I've been in town, so someone else needs to choose the place. The Coffee Shop at the Doctor's Building is the traditional meeting place but I'm not even sure it's still open. -Eric -=--=---=----=----=---=--=-=--=---=----=---=--=-=- Eric B.

From: Jonathan Calloway ------------------------------------------------------ It seems kind of odd to make an AA comparison to this list. In AA, you're trying to stop drinking. On the list, you're not trying to stop using *nix. . . . -----Original Message----- From: chugalug-bounces@chugalug.org [mailto:chugalug-bounces@chugalug.org] On Behalf Of Alan Moss Sent: Friday, March 02, 2012 11:21 PM To: chugalug@chugalug.org Subject: Re: [Chugalug] Tmux I left screen a while ago in favor of tmux. I had to manage multiple copies of a long running custom server process. I tried with screen first and had nothing but problems. Switched to tmux and it all just worked [tm]. It probably had more to do with personality than anything else, but it did work. And since this is my first email, I'll take this opportunity to introduce myself to the group. I'm Alan Moss, a software developer and I live in Chattanooga. Why did that feel like an AA meeting introduction? Anyway, hi all. -Alan On 03/02/2012 11:12 PM, Bobby Burden wrote: > I'm a big fan.

From: Jonathan Calloway ------------------------------------------------------ I worked in this job for about a year myself. I did about 6 weeks on 3rd shift once, and it was WFH. My only problem was the calls from India and China, but they were few and far between. It gave me a lot of time to read and study for cert tests! -----Original Message----- From: chugalug-bounces@chugalug.org [mailto:chugalug-bounces@chugalug.org] On Behalf Of Stephen Haywood Sent: Tuesday, February 21, 2012 1:47 PM To: CHUGALUG Subject: Re: [Chugalug] Job opening in Dalton I have to hit a certain number of billable hours and accomplish certain tasks.

From: William Wade ------------------------------------------------------ We had talked a bit ago about a group meeting with the local congressional representative/staffers (staffers actually being more important...) Anyway if anyone was still wanting to do something like that EFF put together a nice SOPA meeting how to. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2012/01/stop-blacklist-legislation-guide-person-meetings Does someone in the area want to take lead on setting everything up?

From: Taylor McDonald ------------------------------------------------------ Hello folks, My name is Taylor McDonald and I have been lurking around the edges of the dev community in Chattanooga for about a year. There has been a lot of conversation about a hackerspace in the past and even more so recently. Being relatively new to the scene, I would like to link arms with what has been going on and contribute to the momentum already rolling. This appears to be a great time to get something like this started, there are several organizations that would support a hackerspace, it just takes some time and effort to get them to see the vision. I would like to help. With regards for moving the hackerspace forward, is there interest in meeting this week to gauge interest, keep the momentum moving? I suggest Thursday (22 December 2011) afternoon somewhere where beer is available. Suggestions? Full disclosure - This is a self-serving attempt to help cultivate, inspire and engage creation, innovation and community in Chattanooga. It is self-serving in that my company desires to eventually partner with the best and most talented chattanoogan's and a hackerspace will be where they can challenge each other and find new limits to break. Our company, Second Site, has partnerships with Layar (Dutch), Metaio (German) and other leaders in the Augmented Reality world and have ulterior motives to add Chattanooga to the world map when people think about AR. It is coming and we will be a part of it. Feel free to contact me: taylor at secondsitellc ((.)) com Best, Taylor 423.486.8562 cell ..more..

From: Stephen Kraus ------------------------------------------------------ I haven't really been able to contribute to CHUGALUG anymore, and while I will certainly be in Chattanooga in the future, I don't feel like I receive much from the list anymore. I'm not an Apple user, and the trend seems to be going more towards Apples products, with the sparse discussion of Linux and TONS of programming and political/community issues being discussed. So for now I bid you adieu So, I'm off. I have fond memories of CHUGALUG, and certainly hope to hear from all of you in the future! Keep the list alive! I remember meeting Mike when I was about 16 and going to my first meeting, and CHUGALUG filled almost all of my teenage years. As I am now 25, digging hard into my Physics degree, I'm leaning more and more away from IT concerns. So, so long all you LUG'ers. I enjoyed you all (even you Chad).
