18.04.1 and things based off it (or are going to be), Linux Mint 19,
Elementary OS, KDE Neon, Zorin OS
Gnome 3 and Ubuntu switching to it, stock gnome 3 vs “Ubuntufied
Gnome 3 shell”
KDE 5 and KDE Neon, design and system resources, LXQT as a
“lightweight” desktop environment
We briefly talk about Nvidia and AMD cards and drivers and what to
buy and what’s most compatible

artificial barriers put in place by the manufacturers. Couldn't they
just allow us to use the things we buy as we please, even if it
meant voiding the warranty?
Mozilla’s new
designs -
Waste of time or a good thing to show that an open source project
can be a “designer item” and a “brand”

Linux, what motivates us to organise the DLUG, attend conferences
etc
