by Billy Croan 31 Oct '26

31 Oct '26

Who on this list uses Home-Assistant? Kent Seaton his organizing a Kansas City Meetup for home assistant users in November. I'll get details of people are interested. Totally free it's at some church near State line I think. I finally pulled the trigger last month and I've gone absolutely nuts with it. I'm running it in doctor on an embedded Linux router!

Fun ESP and RPi projects
by Chris Bier 14 Oct '26

14 Oct '26

I know it's not much, but I created a custom image for a e-ink display for my Raspberry Pi Zero W. I love that these displays are only $22. I want to buy them all. 😄 It's a name badge with a full Linux desktop. I'm looking at others for a desktop weather display. What are some projects y'all have built?

Spectrum Internet outage
by Caleb Herbert 20 Jul '26

20 Jul '26

Hi KC, Is anyone else experiencing a Spectrum Internet outage? The internet has been out for several hours, since 16:00. We should really invest in a weather radio. Some music and weather would be great right now. Take care, -- Caleb Herbert PO Box 234 | East Lynne, MO 64743 Chat: https://xmpp.link/#caleb@csh.snikket.chat

KCLUG Meeting Reminder – Wednesday, July 8 at Leawood Pioneer
by Steve G 13 Jul '26

13 Jul '26

Hi everyone! I wanted to let you all know that our booking for Study Room #2 has been confirmed. • Location: Johnson County Library – Leawood Pioneer, 4700 Town Center Dr, Leawood, KS 66211 • Date: Wednesday, July 8 • Time: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM To address Billy’s question from the other thread: no, I have not yet booked rooms for August or September. The automation idea you mentioned previously might be a good thing for us to look into. In addition to Billy’s Nest / No Longer Evil demo, I also wanted to share some of my recent adventures with NixOS, a version of Linux that is managed entirely declaratively. I can speak to what I have learned so far, and how it's different from a traditional Linux distribution. So for Wednesday’s meeting, we currently have at least two good topics lined up: • Billy’s demo of No Longer Evil and controlling a liberated Nest thermostat • A discussion/demo around NixOS and declarative system configuration As usual, everyone is welcome to bring questions, projects, problems, or anything Linux related they want to discuss. See you Wednesday! Steve Gilmore
