[Tfug] End of Tucson Linux Meetup?

[Caiser]

Ah, that really sucks about the Tucson Linux Meetup no longer being a
thing, I really enjoyed the couple meetings I went to. The lecture you gave
about Ansible in that last one turned out to be particularly handy during
my recent job application, they wanted me to use Ansible to set up a basic
webserver on a VM and I'd never used it before, but thanks to you I'd at
least heard of it and had an idea of where to start Googling.

I'm very interested in any kind of Linux-based get-together in Tucson! It'd
be super cool if it could be under the TFUG name, but I'd show up to the
meeting even if it's not.

However, I am not enthusiastic about virtual, online-only webinars. I want
to talk to people in person, that's the entire point of me going to a
meeting rather than just staying at home and Googling til I solve whatever
the issue is. Good luck with your webinars though Marcia.
