00:02:43 micheline: I missed the URL to register for the Pizza Party in June. What is it? 00:08:11 Alan German: Once again we are fast approaching the end of our OPCUG season, and once again we’ll celebrate it with pizza, drinks and desserts. These are free for OPCUG members and their guests. This year we’ll even have several door prizes to draw for our members. The event will be, as always, on the second Wednesday of June, that is June 14, 2023, starting at 6 PM. It will be at the Britannia Park Trolley/Picnic Station (see images below), under a sheltered area in case the weather does not cooperate, with free parking and bathroom access. For those who would like to bring beer or wine, alcohol is not permitted in the park. Pop and water will be provided. To help with planning, we’re asking you to register by email to pizzaparty@opcug.ca. Tell us if you are bringing guests and how many, if you require special pizza accommodations (e.g. gluten-free, vegetarian), and if you need a ride or can offer a ride. https://opcug.ca/events/annual-pizza-night-2/ 00:12:42 Chris Taylor: Want to present at Q&A? Give us your material and we can create slides, or we have a PowerPoint template you can download and use: https://opcug.ca/downloads/Q&A-Template.potx 00:12:55 Chris Taylor: Want to join the OPCUG? - https://opcug.ca/join-or-renew/ 00:14:33 Alan German: We have scheduled a Members’ Favourites night for May 10th and are looking for speakers.

You have to use it every month or so to keep it alive. It will remind you. I call the NRC time signal 613 745 1576 00:23:17 Chris Taylor: Orleans Photo Club https://cpopc.ca 00:24:14 Tom Trottier: The RA also has an active Photo Club - https://www.raphotoclub.ca/ 00:27:39 Lynda: lbuske@sympatico.ca 00:28:20 bea: Thanks Lynda 00:29:21 Tom Trottier: Does not work in Firefox 00:30:30 Natalie: It works for me, too. 00:30:57 Chris Taylor: Public key cryptography https://www.tutorialspoint.com/cryptography/public_key_encryption.htm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-8l98O9lhw 00:31:00 Tom Trottier: I get a cursor speed bar - I am using a Logitech mouse with software 00:31:01 micheline: My problem is that the scroll cursor comes up when I do not want it 00:36:40 Tom Trottier: Edge also has the new "Discover" button to access its chatGPT 00:39:03 E O'Driscoll: Very interesting about Edge. 00:39:48 E O'Driscoll: Time for me to pay attention to what is available! 00:41:17 Natalie: I use the unit converter on my cell a lot (embedded in the calculator). I don't use Edge & wonder if other browsers will add these functions. 00:41:31 Lynda: Nice and handy re Edge. Thanks Chris! 00:43:12 Tom Trottier: https://www.bing.com/translator is the same translator 00:43:23 KW-G: I have extensions on Chrome 00:43:31 Natalie: I'll check extensions. Thanks! 00:43:57 Natalie: It's nice to have quick access! 00:44:53 Tom Trottier: Scribus can be used to create presentations. It supports text wrapping 00:49:26 Chris Taylor: Stocard https://stocardapp.com/en/ca 00:51:59 Chris Taylor: reebee https://www.reebee.com/flyers 00:53:07 Martin: I also use Stocard for my Ottawa Public Library and CAA cards. 00:53:20 micheline: I see people making payments with their phone. How do you use a phone wallet? 00:54:33 micheline: Metro is the store I use most!!! 00:54:37 Claudette: I have been using the Stocard app on my android phone for several years. 00:54:39 Bob Gowan: a friend returned from Australia - they use phones for everything, payments, hotel room access 00:56:22 E O'Driscoll: I have Apple Wallet and once the credit card is loaded, I just press twice on the right side and the transaction completes. I've never tried to use a loyalty card though. I must try that. 00:56:23 Natalie: So it's like scanning the actual loyalty card, but in the smartphone? 00:56:52 Tom Trottier: Thanks Stew 00:56:52 Serge-Érik: I had problems with my Mastercard and bank card at Metro. It is not a Stocard problem. 00:56:58 Chris Taylor: @Nat - so it would seem 00:57:27 Chris Taylor: reebee https://www.reebee.com/flyers 00:57:29 Lynda: Metro accepts my Amex but you can't tap, always have to insert it yet I tap it in other stores. 00:57:32 KW-G: I use Flipp 00:59:14 Jeff Dubois: One of the nicest features in Reebee is you can search for items. For instance, 'chocolate milk" and it will generate a list of all stores in your location that have chocolate milk in their flyer. (I didn't like the Flipp interface.) 01:01:06 Stew Bruce: Replying to "So it's like scannin..." Correct 01:01:43 Tom Trottier: Yet another reason for a bigger monitor..... 01:02:49 Stew Bruce: Replying to "I had problems with ..." The problem I had at metro was the Tangerine Mastercard in Google Wallet. Not Stocard. Interestingly, the same problem occurred at Super C, Jean Coutu as well. 01:04:09 Stew Bruce: Replying to "Thanks Stew" Welcome 01:04:14 Tristan: Given you work for the government, Microsoft does have representatives assigned to help. So may get more traction if get in touch with the M365 team and have them contact Microsoft directly. 01:05:36 Tom Trottier: You can also use the ONION router for more security for free - but slower 01:05:45 Stew Bruce: Replying to "One of the nicest fe..." I'm not comfortable with the Flipp interface either and still using Reebee but gonna have to make the switch some day.... 01:07:27 Tom Trottier: https://www.torproject.org/ 01:08:11 Tom Trottier: Opera browser gives free vpn EU/US/Asia 01:08:44 Glen: Is there a way to track your data through TunnelBear to stay within 2 GB /Mo? 01:10:48 Jeff Dubois: StrongVPN has unlimited data at great prices plus 250GB cloud storage through SugarSync. StrongVPN also has a standalone app to turn your whole system through the VPN as well as browser extensions so only the browser goes through the VPN. YOu can also choose the city and country. (I"m currently payling $18.25US annually and use it all the time for streaming to circumvent geographical restrictions.) 01:12:21 Stew Bruce: Replying to "Metro accepts my Ame..." I'll have to try my Amex there but every other card (except Tangerine MC) worked in the Google wallet. 01:14:25 Martin: Would using a VPN at a coffee shop be a safer way for doing online bank transactions than simply relying upon the security of a https connection? 01:15:04 Bill: Are you connected to the correct port Tom? 01:16:24 KW-G: @Martin.I use NORD VPN when away from home and at public wifi. I've run into problems with NORD connecting at OnRoutes and Tim Horton's. When I inquired with NORD, seems there is something related to Roger's in these locations.... 01:16:42 Chris Taylor: Right - click Start and choose Computer Management 01:16:53 Chris Taylor: Expand Services and Applications 01:16:58 Chris Taylor: Click Services 01:17:11 Chris Taylor: Find Print spooler on the right 01:17:32 Tom Trottier: for any services changes, you need to open as administrator 01:18:09 Chris Taylor: Click Stop the service near the top 01:18:21 Bill: Thanks everyone. Great night! 01:18:28 Chris Taylor: Actually, don't Stop the service 01:18:40 Chris Taylor: click Restart the serivce 01:20:23 Chris Taylor: To stop and start the print spooler service Right-click Start button and choose Computer Management from the pop-up Expand Services and Applications on the left pane Click Services Find Print spooler on the right click Restart the serivce 01:21:58 Natalie: Thanks! 01:22:02 Wayne: Thanks to All for another Excellent evening. 01:22:04 Gail: Thank you! 01:22:06 Carol Pearson: Thank you 01:22:07 E O'Driscoll: Thank you !!!!
