Columbus Arduino Raspberry Pi Enthusiasts (CARPE) (Check Location)

Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability.

Free In-person Meeting: Unwanted Emotions & Loneliness, How to Get Over Them

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Running and Sharing AI Projects in the Cloud

Thanks to Rick Power from TeamClaws for giving this talk! In this talk/demo, Rick will show you exactly how to securely create and share an agentic workflow. This live walkthrough will move one agentic project off a laptop and onto a cloud VM. Then, when on the VM, the project will be still be running while a coworker can open, run, and change it, using a gaming server as an example. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

Choose Your Movie: JIMMY vs GODZILLA MINUS ZERO at Cinemark Stoneridge!

Join us as we get together for a CMG Choose Your Movie event and one of our toughest choices yet! Option 1 is JIMMY, a biographical drama following the life of beloved actor Jimmy Stewart. It follows his life from winning the Oscar for Best Actor in The Philadelphia Story, to enlisting and becoming a combat pilot in the U.S. Army Air Force, and through his return home in the role of George Bailey in It’s a Wonderful Life. Option 2 is GODZILLA MINUS ZERO, a follow-up to the outstanding (and Oscar-winning) Godzilla Minus One (2023). The film picks up in 1949 postwar Japan as it struggles to rebuild while facing a new threat from King Ghidorah. Here are descriptions, trailers and our plan for this event: JIMMY: The film tells the untold true story of America’s most-beloved actor and the iconic role that saved him. It focuses on the most transformative season in Jimmy Stewart’s life—from winning the Academy Award for Best Actor in The Philadelphia Story to enlisting and becoming a combat pilot in the U.S. Army Air Corps at the beginning of World War II. Stewart flew twenty missions over Europe, rising to the rank of colonel by the end of the war, only to return home broken and disheartened. Then George Bailey and It’s a Wonderful Life came calling. The film is directed by Aaron Burns and stars KJ Apa in the title role, alongside Jason Alexander, Max Casella, Sarah Drew, Jen Lilley and Christopher McDonald. TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EURriesRel0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EURriesRel0) GODZILLA MINUS ZERO: Set in 1949, the Shikishima family confronts a fresh catastrophe two years after surviving their previous ordeal with the legendary monster. Like its predecessor, the film is a character-driven drama, grounded in deep human emotion, all while providing all the monster smashing spectacle of the traditional Godzilla movies! The film is written/directed/visual effects by Takashi Yamazaki. It stars Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe, Hidetaka Yoshioka, Yuki Yamada, Kuranosuke Sasaki, Sakura Ando, and Miou Tanaka all returning to reprise their roles from Minus One, along with Min Tanaka, Masami Nagasawa and Jun Kunimura. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to stellar reviews at the Japanese International and New York Film Festivals. With a near perfect 95% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, critics say: “Towering side-by-side with its predecessor, every bit its equal, Godzilla Minus Zero is simply incredible blockbuster filmmaking.” Others declare, “With devastating human drama and earth-shaking kaiju action, Godzilla Minus Zero ups the ante in every way from its predecessor – and is easily one of the best films of the year.” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_Xfz5IMGDs PLAN: Details confirmed and tickets on sale for BOTH films! If you’d like to see JIMMY, please purchase your ticket for the 7:00pm showing and meet in the lobby area between 6:35 and 6:45pm! If you’d like to see GODZILLA MINUS ZERO, please purchase your ticket for the 6:30pm showing and meet inside the theater lobby between 6:10 and 6:20pm! Advance purchase is advised! Once you have yours, please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
