Linux: The great frontier of operating systems that Macintosh doesn't even have an official snarky campaign against. Hive 76 offers this women- and trans-friendly but open-to-all primer on the OS that will make you the Fonz of the Internet café. "Most of the time it goes off without a hitch, but occasionally it can go very, very wrong, so try it out on a computer you don't depend on for work," suggests instructor Stephanie Alarcon. That's some serious tech-allure, but if HAL 9000 had been running Linux, maybe it wouldn't have been so pissy.

Sun., March 28, 10 a.m.-3 p.m., $30 (or pay what you can), Hive 76, 915 Spring Garden St., Suite 519, 215-765-1463, hive76.org.
