Dear Kopimists and the People who Love Them. For the featured Filo delicacy for Friday Filosophy, we will have potato burekas. I propose we talk about the difference between source code, object code, and executable code in regards to 1st Amendment protection. In other words, when is code speech and when is it a speech-act subject to less legal protection? Below is an excerpt from an essay by Lee Tien, a brilliant EFF attorney for more than a decade, on Software as Speech (2000). These two … [View More]

by Andrew

Say you have two houses near each other that want to share their Internet connections with eacth other as one wireless node. So, for example, they could both connect to Neighborhood WIFI and get a connection that uses their combined bandwidth. How is this possible? What's the best way to set this up so that other houses could join in and share their bandwidth as well. Thanks, Andrew -- --------- http://www.vagabondballroom.com

Sudo Shirts: 2nd Edition

by Dan Finlay

Hi Sudoers, I've received some inquiries about when we could do a second batch of sudo shirts. Herein I will lay the groundwork for such shirts to happen. First of all, today I was struck with a very simple sudo shirt design, which combines a few ideals that I've developed from my time screen printing: Using a colored shirt, minimizing ink use through tactful shirt color choice, creating focus from the graphical elements instead of the text. Also since this design would be a one-screen … [View More]

Bio + Big Data event at my office this coming Thursday Evening

by Anthony Di Franco

I spoke a little about DIY Bio with the person who is organizing a bio entrepreneurship presentation / pitching / networking event next Thursday evening and she said people could join in the pitch session if desired or simply come to network. It will be big-data and French/Bay-investment/incubation focused so I am intrigued by the potential of a group of hackers showing up adhering to an unconventional-to-audience route to impact (open, decentralized development) and considering unconventional … [View More]

rPis >$ Thinkpads

by rusty lindgren

Seems obvious, but I don't think people realize how cheap we can get thinkpads... thinkpads also last a long time, using superior electronics components,hinges and other hardware. http://www.extremetech.com/computing/148482-the-true-cost-of-a-raspberry-pi… If anyone wants to know how to buy thinkpads, I'm willing to sit down with people and find them cheap computers for hacking. -- Cheers, Rusty Lindgren **
