Someone had a question about roof walking. They are about 20 bucks it’s a metal eye you can tie a rope too you lift a roof tile, attach to something solid like a stud which can be found at joints on the roof or every 24 or 16” inches.. attach rope with bowline if not used to knots, attach to harness, voila you’re a piñata if you fall. lol. but hell if the roof is less than 8/12 pitch, just walk it, normal shoes should be fine. I’m very glad to see progress down there, you guys have such an awesome attitude. The guide is coming along well, and is almost ready to be released. If anyone wanted to get on board the apis are finished and working on UI now, could always use help (: I have property here by Portland and in Joshua Tree where projects have begun. I have housing if anyone needs it, is what I’m saying. Much love A Sent from my iPad

mesh routers can't opkg install kmod-usb-acm

by Jake

i'm trying to use a mesh router to operate a duck coop door, and this means i want the USB port to recognize an ACM serial port. This is a normal thing for openWRT and usually works thusly: opkg update # downloads opkg package lists to /tmp opkg install kmod-usb-acm # installs a kernel module for ACM serial USB devices unfortunately, there are some problems with present mesh node firmware (including a node that was flashed in December 2015 and another which was flashed recently) and this process doesn't work. for starters, the opkg.conf on mesh nodes is messed up - i'm not sure why but there's a github issue here: https://github.com/sudomesh/sudowrt-firmware/issues/108 to get "opkg update" to work, follow the instructions in the first comment. That works for me, but when i do "opkg install kmod-usb-acm" i get the following error: # opkg install kmod-usb-acm Installing kmod-usb-acm (3.18.23-1) to root... Downloading http://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_calmer/15.05.1/ar71xx/generic/packages/b…. Collected errors: * satisfy_dependencies_for: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies for * kmod-usb-acm: * kernel (= 3.18.23-1-b2f200610f46d20ef52d269421369d0c) * * opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package kmod-usb-acm. # uname -a Linux jerkey-tl-wdr3500-2 3.18.23 #1 Fri Dec 25 00:14:49 EST 2015 mips GNU/Linux i have no idea what this error means or why it's happening, can anyone offer advice? thank you, -jake

Crow Funding for Students (Q'eqchi', Kiche, and Mam) in Guatemala

by danarauz＠gmail.com

Hello Sudoroom folks, I hope you don't mind me sending this email to the list, but I hope some of you could help these students. Please, when you get a chance, see the details+images on this page I put together. https://www.youcaring.com/help-escuela-chajsaquil-recover-from-flood The short version is that, on October 5th, a tropical storm flooded the Escuela Mixta Official Barrio Chajsaquil and their already old furniture got ruined even more. How I learned about this is because I joined their Facebook group after meeting its principal and knowing the building itself when I was traveling in Guatemala in Dec. 2016. This time I was wondering if you know of someone/organization/company that could help the school economically to bring these students new desks, and other needed school furniture. The list its in the fundraising page linked above. If so, please share the link and this email if you want. In regards of donors wanting a tax exempt form, I am in the process of getting approved by OmniCommons. So they can be the financial sponsor; so Omni be the one sending the money to the school. We are open to the person/organization/company also being the direct donors to the school itself. The school location: Escuela Official Barrio Chajsaquil San Pedro Carcha, Alta Verapaz Guatemala Thank you, and thank you for all you do to make this world a better place. Sincerely, Daniel Arauz Cell: 415.336.9143 <(415)%20336-9143> Signal: 415.336.9143 <https://whispersystems.org/>

What's up with this? You may want to Check your node. The one I have has this constant connection to a Server log ("100.64.0.10:514")?

by danarauz＠gmail.com

What's up with this? You may want to Check your node. The one I have has this constant connection to a Server log ("100.64.0.10:514")? Are all PON nodes pushing logs to a remote location, or is t just me? I SSH to my PON node and while checking for current connections I see this established connection "100.64.0.10:514 (Syslog Server?)? Been refreshing for about 20+ minutes and the connection seems constant. Can someone please explain this? Daniel

Mozilla/NSF WINS grant thread

by cowlicks＠riseup.net

This thread is for tracking our grant. We've submitted our "intent to apply", and we are waiting to receive our invitation to "submit to stage one". The last day to submit the "intent to apply" is October 15th, so we should confirm our submission is good before then. Marc J is checking on this. The next stage is submitting our application to the Design Concept Stage by November 15th. I'll be emailing a document where we can collaborate on writing this.
