Hey everyone,
Timely reminder of the first Berkeley Linux User Group meetup of the month.
Both the virtual and the in-person physical meetups start at 11:00am PDT this Sunday, August 13th and go to 2:00pm or however late people want to participate.
Please see the currently available meetup schedule at https://berkeleylug.com/meetings gratefully provided by Michael P for further BerkeleyLUG meetup details.

The in-person physical meetup will be at Caffe Strada.
Caffe Strada's address is 2300 College Ave Berkeley, CA 94704 and it is located at the Southwest corner of College and Bancroft across the street from the main Cal campus (see its OpenStreetMap.org geolocation map at https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/37.8691/-122.25484 )

Ph  510.843.5282

As I wrote previously, am planning to bring along an older-generation Lenovo ThinkPad X240 to donate to someone also attending this Sunday's  in-person meetup.
Yep, it's the identical ThinkPad Tom L -- who is away for August's live meetups -- previously suggested I pass along.
Pluses
+ Installed OS is a regularly-updated Linux Mint Xfce 21.1 "vera"
+ Fast internal SSD drive, built-in webcam
+ AC power adapter included
+ Stored in a giveaway simple nylon satchel

Minuses
- one of the batteries somehow tends to become loose requiring a longer-time AC power-charging once properly repositioned (am including the requisite paper clip to reset the internal battery so this _can_ recharge)
- some of the keyboard's letters are continually getting rubbed out (am including a temporary "fix" of a small bottle of standard white correction fluid used to finely paint-back-in the rubbed-out letters)
- USB mouse not included

Cheers!
-A
