  2. #EdinburghUK - #LinuxInstallParty @ Inverleith St Serfs Church Hall

    2.5 hours

    Inverleith St Serf's Church Centre
    1A Clark Road, Edinburgh, United Kingdom

    "#Edinburgh #LinuxCafé is a group of IT professionals that want to help people save money - and reduce #ElectronicWaste along the way.

    We can help you:

    - Try out #LinuxMint for the first time without installing anything on your computer
    - Install Linux Mint if you decide you want it (You can keep Windows too and then choose which one to start when you turn on the computer)
    - Transfer your files
    - Install your favourite software and show you how to keep it updated

    This is a drop-in event, but we are operating informal time slots to help avoid congestion. Please book a slot below and come along with your laptop or a USB stick.

    Things to bear in mind before the event:

    - Do backup your personal files
    - Do bring along your laptop charger
    - If you aren't able to bring your device (e.g. a desktop computer), please bring a USB stick with you so we can put Linux Mint on it for you"

  3. @Linux_in_a_Bit Yes!

    And this is why I'm involved with #LinuxCafé, #Linux #installparties, #Linuxdays, #diday ... events, giving #PIM lectures and talks and hopefully publishing a book on how to organize yourself and your data some day.

    To me, it's all one common topic:
    Helping people to help themselves without #lockin effects.

    Good question! Some ideas:

    * Volunteer for an organization offering Linux help in your area (#RepairCafe, #LinuxUserGroup, #CryptoParty, etc.).

    * Organize an install event with a #Library, #CommunityCenter, etc.

    * Consider opening a #LinuxCafe (see here for some input invent.kde.org/websites/endof1)

    Whatever you do, let us know about it so we can promote it in the context of the #EndOf10 !
