random idea: wouldn't it be neat if we could reclaim computer hardware from local businesses (which typically come without hard drives) find a cheap way to package a small linux distro onto a cheap drive (maybe even: http://www.amazon.com/Micro-SATA-Cables-Adapter-Converter/dp/B0078PVL8U). then resell them as "sudobooks" for some ridiculously low price (25 bucks?) to raise dollars for sudo?

Writers unite on May 19th!

by Vicky Knox

!sretirw yeH In a previous thread I asked: "Are we alone in the universe?" Not according to all the wonderful responses we got! Come join your fellow wordy humanoids on a fine *Sunday the 19th* afternoon at *4pm* and enjoy gastrological delicacies from your and other star systems (Nothing too fancy. OR don't bring anything at all if you prefer.). We will be making good use of our internal universes in pondering the following action and discussion items brought forth via the email thread (and any other interesting thought that has since rocked your world): – Poetry slams and talent showcases – A writers’ collective website: LinguisticAlchemystic – Sudo Radio broadcasts – Sci-fi writers meetup – Sudo Press: A self-publishing platform with graphic and editorial support focusing on Hacktivism – Book-binding/sewing, book-selling – Algorithmic poetry meetup/workshop – Twitter haikus – User generated algorithm seeds *tear* – Writers/Comic book artists collab – Drop-in writing help workshop – Screenwriters’/actors’ meetup

revolutionaries and the creation of new language

by Romy Ilano

There is a yin and a yang to everything. Here are a few examples of the "dark side" of reshaping language... I've read a lot of history about the Chinese Cultural Revolution and the Cambodian Khmer Rouge... these groups were very interested in reforming a corrupt society, finding new ways of doing things. They are not shining examples but I can say that their intentions started out pure. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khmer_Rouge_rule_of_Cambodia#Establishing_the_… On the surface, society in Democratic Kampuchea was strictly egalitarian<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egalitarian>. The Khmer language <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khmer_language>, like many in Southeast Asia, has a complex system of usages to define speakers' rank and social status. These usages were abandoned. People were encouraged to call each other "friend", or "comrade" (in Khmer, មិត្ដ mitt), and to avoid traditional signs of deference such as bowing or folding the hands in salutation. Language was transformed in other ways. The Khmer Rouge invented new terms. People were told they must "forge" (*lot dam*) a new revolutionary character, that they were the "instruments" (*opokar*) of the Angkar, and that nostalgia for pre-revolutionary times (*chheu satek arom*, or "memory sickness") could result in their receiving Angkar's "invitation" to be deindustrialised and to live in a concentration camp.

Re: [sudo-discuss] Hey writers! (MEETING THE 19TH!)

by Vicky Knox

Thank you Marina for your proactivation, but the 19th will actually be the day! In the previous email Rabbit said that date would work from him. I was waiting for other people to reply, but since they haven't and it doesn't conflict with anything else I have gone ahead and scheduled a writers' meetup for the 19th at 4p!

Does sudoroom have an offiicial youtube, or do you know of an alternative video service?

by Max Klein

Sudomate video tutorials need to be uploaded. Do we have a youtube or vimeo? Or is there a good alternative for us to use? Best, notconfusing

Re: [sudo-discuss] Hey writers!

by Rabbit

Sunday the 19th works for me! I can show people how to make Twitter bots that generate random poetry like the famous horse_ebooks. https://twitter.com/horse_ebooks And I'll read selections from my own army of Twitter poetry-bots. P.S. Romy, these can make excellent comic ideas :) On Tue, May 7, 2013 at 2:10 PM, Vicky Knox <vknoxsironi(a)gmail.com> wrote: > I love all of your responses!sesnopser rouy fo lla evol I > > It seems that a regular meet-up, projects or workshops are in store.
