State of the sudo mesh meeting

by Marc Juul

Hi sudo meshers! It's been a while since we've all hung out. A lot has changed and many of us are in different places both mentally and physically since sudo mesh was last properly active. That being said I feel like we still all have things that are exciting to us relating to decentralized internet things. Maybe some old projects should be officially shelved. Maybe people have ideas for new things they'd like to hack on. Let's meet up and talk about what we are excited about and what we … [View More]

CoastFi -‘subletting’ IoT hotspots

by Eve Edelson

‘Passive income’ - they’ll give you $100/year to host a hotspot specifically for IoT devices. https://www.coastfi.com/ I think they’re especially going after owners of multiple-occupancy buildings. [One of the pitches - providing coverage for farm sensors- seems unrealistic- vineyards etc. in Yolo County don’t have heaps of neighbors.]

Hi Sudo Mesh, This is a forwarded message from Omni Commons Communications Working Group as we are working on an updated newsletter (Roberto taking the lead on this work.) Any updates for the newsletter since May 2020 last year ? ------------------------------------------------- --------- Forwarded message --------- Omni Commons Communications Working Group From: Roberto Martinez <rcm00189(a)gmail.com> Date: Sun, Feb 28, 2021 at 1:50 PM Subject: [omni-consensus] Omni Newsletter Call … [View More]for submissions To: discuss <Discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org>, < consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org>, East Bay Food Not Bombs < ebfnb(a)angrylists.com>, Sudo room <sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org>, < fyecollective(a)gmail.com>, Rachel West <rachelwest(a)allwomencount.ne>, Liberated Lens <Liberated_Lens(a)lists.riseup.net>, Counter Culture Labs Members <cclmembers(a)googlegroups.com>, <info(a)anvfarm.org>, Chiapas Support Committee <enapoyo1994(a)yahoo.com>, <comms(a)lists.omnicommons.org> Hello Omni folks, How are ya’ll doing? We hope everyone is doing ok. It’s been a while since we’ve put out an Omni newsletter, almost a year has gone by since our last one! A lot has happened between then and now, so it would be nice to catch up. We’re thinking of putting out the next newsletter by the end of March, so we want to invite Omni collectives and Omni folks to share updates, thoughts, art, feelings, ideas with us, so we can include them in the Omni Commoner. There is a lot to talk about. We are still in the grips of a deadly pandemic which has undeniably exacerbated the ills of capitalism and its deadly effects on our community. But Omni folks and Omni Collectives have organized and actively continued to support the community during this crisis. We are stewarding a town fridge, the North Oakland Mutual Aid Project is going strong, Acta Non Verba has adopted Phat Beets’ CSA, and the rest of Omni collectives continue to do empowering work out in the community. The working groups are meeting, some regularly and other sometime, the finance/fundraising working group though has been at the forefront doing the important work of keeping the Omni alive, critical work, which we are all grateful for! There is much more going on for sure, this is not even mentioning the different individual projects Omni folks are working on! It has been a rough year, but with the spirit of collectivity, the Omni continues to be a hub for community collective action during this pandemic. It is this we would like to share in this newsletter =]. So if you want to share anything with the Omni community please do! Art, thoughts, visions, desires, anything! We are asking from each collective to submit 1-4 paragraphs providing an update of the work ya’ll have been doing. Below are some suggestions of questions or topics you can touch on: - Updates from your collective. New visions and goals. - How your collective has been responding to the covid-19 pandemic. - What kind of world do ya’ll imagine post covid-19? - Anything you want to share….poetry, paintings, photographs, recipes, anything. - Upcoming Events Please send your content to the communications working group email at comms(a)lists.omnicommons.org, by March 21st. Like all the other working groups at the Omni, the communications working group needs more participation. If you are interested in joining please sign up to the communication working group email list at https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/comms. Thank you. With love and solidarity, The Communications Working Group ______________________________________________. consensus mailing list consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/consensus --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dane [View Less]
