title: "E-Waste Meetup"

* Date: Thursday, May 16 2024
|
|
||||||
* Time: 18:15
|
|
||||||
* Location: Boelter 1st Floor entrance, by the dumpsters
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## General Info
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will be a small meetup where the fourth-year students will pass on their knowledge of the best
|
|
||||||
spots on campus to find free e-waste.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You might get your hands dirty, since we are going to be dumpster diving, but you might also walk
|
|
||||||
away with some new hardware! Be ready to do some walking since the locations are fairly spread out.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Open to all who are interested.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## What to Expect
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There are almost always free office-grade monitors and keyboards to be found. It's also fairly
|
|
||||||
common to see decade-old PCs with RAM and HDDs, provided that no one else scavenged them first.
|
|
||||||
Sometimes, valuable stuff gets thrown away like oscilloscopes, Macs from < 10 years ago, CRTs, NVMe
|
|
||||||
SSDs, and PCs from the 1980s (as featured at the [Spring Installfest](/events/installfest-s24)).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The more valuable stuff could require some repairs, but it's not too difficult for a seasoned EE
|
|
||||||
student. Actually, it might surprise you how much perfectly working stuff gets thrown out. Lots of
|
|
||||||
the hard drives from labs don't even get wiped, and we've found adult content on them before...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Your chances of finding something cool will go up the more regularly you check!

development. Many of these programs are Open Source and/or free.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Is it hard to make the switch?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
One of the biggest concerns for prospective Linux users is whether they will
|
|
||||||
be able to use the same programs they did on Windows/macOS. People might have
|
|
||||||
to use particular software for their jobs, after all. Thankfully, this isn't
|
|
||||||
such a big problem anymore.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Nowadays, more and more software ships with native Linux support, including
|
|
||||||
[most](https://code.visualstudio.com/) [code](https://www.jetbrains.com/ides/)
|
|
||||||
[IDEs](https://eclipseide.org/), and even some multimedia programs like
|
|
||||||
[DaVinci Resolve](https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve) and
|
|
||||||
[Synthesizer V](https://dreamtonics.com/synthesizerv/).
|
|
||||||
Even if this isn't the case for you, you still have options. Plenty of free
|
|
||||||
alternatives to popular proprietary software exist (e.g.
|
|
||||||
[GIMP](https://www.gimp.org/) instead of Photoshop for image editing,
|
|
||||||
[Krita](https://krita.org/en/) instead of PaintTool SAI
|
|
||||||
for drawing, or [LibreOffice](https://www.libreoffice.org/) instead of
|
|
||||||
Microsoft Office). These programs are often compatible with the same file
|
|
||||||
formats, too. Still, if you absolutely must use the same program that you ran
|
|
||||||
on your Windows system, [Wine](https://www.winehq.org/) can be used to run
|
|
||||||
.EXEs. [Proton](https://www.protondb.com/) works on top of Wine so you can even
|
|
||||||
play many of the same PC games.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Currently, Linux only holds about 4% market share amongst desktop PCs, but as
|
|
||||||
the open source software ecosystem continues to evolve, and users get fed up
|
|
||||||
with Microsoft and Apple's business practices, this number is sure to climb.

title: RDP guide
|
|
||||||
date: 2024-05-24
|
|
||||||
author: David Z

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Many classes require using the UCLA SEASNet Remote Desktop. For example 115C requires you
|
|
||||||
to use Cadence (yuck). Microsoft's Remote Desktop Protocol is proprietary, but there are
|
|
||||||
open source clients which can connect to it. Here are three ways of connecting which work well.
|
|
||||||
Please note that you need to be on the UCLA VPN.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Using FreeRDP (Most reliable)
|
|
||||||
In order to use FreeRDP to connect, start by downloading the .rdp file from [here](https://rds.seaslab.seas.ucla.edu/RDWeb/Pages/en-US/Default.aspx)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Then run the following command in terminal:
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
xfreerdp <filename>.rdp /u:<username> /p:<password> /gd:rds.seaslab.seas.ucla.edu/RDWeb/Feed/webfeed.aspx /dynamic-resolution
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
Do not put `seaslab\` before your username, otherwise you will not be able to log in.
|
|
||||||
## Using Remmina (More user-friendly)
|
|
||||||
Remmina is a more user-friendly way of connecting. It has nice features (like being able to fullscreen or resize the window).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To use it, simply download the .rdp file and then enter in your username and password. Nothing else needs to be done.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Sometimes, the rdp file will not work. This may be because the server domain changed. In order to get the correct domain, you
|
|
||||||
can use the previous method. Look for the line which looks like this:
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
[02:39:22:381] [19509:19510] [WARN][com.freerdp.crypto] - CN = vmsrv07-rdsh01.seaslab.seas.ucla.edu
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
In this case, we can see that the server domain is `vmsrv07-rdsh01.seaslab.seas.ucla.edu`, which is different from the
|
|
||||||
domain listed in the RDP file (`VMSRV08-RDCB02.SEASLAB.SEAS.UCLA.EDU` in my case). To fix this, right click in Remmina on the
|
|
||||||
connection, select Edit, then replace the domain under "Server" in the Basic tab.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Using SSH (Most direct way)
|
|
||||||
If you are using MobaXTerm, you might have noticed that Cadence actually lives on a RHEL server. You are basically
|
|
||||||
connecting to a Windows server, and then using an application on Windows (which implements SSH X forwarding) to connect back
|
|
||||||
to a Linux server. It's obvious that Windows is just a "middleman" and that you actually don't need it.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can take the RHEL server's address straight from MobaXterm (for me, it's `eeapps02.seas.ucla.edu`). Then, type the
|
|
||||||
following command:
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
ssh -X -C <username>@eeapps02.seas.ucla.edu
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
And you're done!
