I have an old ZAReason laptop (ie. no Windows Lisc) that's been probably a
bit too abused to sell off, but I wanted to know if anyone knew of any
places in the area that might benefit from it?
I was looking for something along the lines of http://www.freegeek.org/
though I don't think there's anything like that (which I'm aware of ) in
the bay.
Main reason I like freegeek is that it teaches others about computers
(educating,teaching and learning) and no matter what shape the
laptop/desktop is in it still serves a purpose.

Yes, I agree. We need not, and should not, submit our Articles of
Association to the state. The 3500 refers to articles of
incorporation. Most organizations don't have "articles of
association". It's just a weird anarchist thing that we did over a
year before we became any sort of legal entity. :)

Consensus was never really the issue. Laziness was the issue. There
were a number of Sudoroom meetings last year where consensus was clear
about the direction we wanted to go, but it was just never
implemented. If we can have something ready to read on Wednesday and
mail on Thursday, that's icing on the cake, but I say just do what we
need to do for now, including mailing it before Wednesday if need be.
>From what I understand, we'll have the chance to change things again
when we do 501c3 so it's just an interim document.
Do you want to learn how to make a circuitboard design with FOSS (Free and
Open Source Software) at sudoroom with me?
If you are interested in working on this, please let me know when you
think is a good time to do it. Otherwise I will pick a time and make an
announcement, and maybe nobody will see how it's done.
i started making the circuitboard for the Hack-o-mat a few weeks ago.
This circuitboard will allow a microcontroller such as a beaglebone black
to control the FORTY different product vending motors in our Snackshop 2:
https://github.com/sudoroom/hackomat
i finished entering the schematic (with a bit of exciting vim hacking) and
now it's time to render it into an actual physical circuitboard layout.
We will need to lay out the card-edge connectors which plug into the
vending machines' original wiring harness, and place all the components
(mostly triacs) on the circuitboard, keeping the dimensions below 10cm for
maximum price value. The finished design will be useful for any
hackerspace wanting a computerized vending machine, or for controlling ANY
42 AC electrical loads from only 7 bits of GPIO (charlieplex style).
Once the board is designed, we will send off to #hackvana in China to get
them made, unless Oshpark is cheaper or more desirable. When they arrive
we can start using our TWO vending machines to sell hacker candy to the
omni!

hi all,
this may be something that you already know about, but in case you missed
it, on july 24th the omni delegates agreed to ban zach houston from the
omni. an extended discussion from that meeting is here:
https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Event:2014/07/24_Weekly_Delegates_Meeting
zach will most not likely come to the omni any time soon, but if you see
him there, please feel empowered to ask him to leave.

Hi everyone,
My name's Aman! I'd love to meet y'all at the Sudo Room. I swung by the
Omni unannounced recently, and Joe suggested I drop a message here at
sudo-discuss to introduce myself.
I'm your neighbor, live close to the Omni. I'm interested in re-igniting an
old college hobby around DIY audio equipment; I'd love to build a new amp
for my HD 600 headphones. It's been a long time since I've worked on
hardware -- these days I do computational math and stats as a consultant.
I'm also interested in experimenting with soap bubbles.
I'd love to meet you and have a chance to share ideas and learn new things.
The new space looks like it has great potential and you're already doing
some very cool things with it. I'd be excited to hear about some of the
projects that y'all are working on, and more about what the Sudo Room (and
Omni) community is like.
When would be a good time to swing by and introduce myself in person?
-A
when!?!? are there competing or compounding events?

someone came to IRC asking if we had a bookscanner, because they are
visually impaired and need to read some books after scanning them.
here is what they said in IRC. I don't know how to contact them but I
think we should prioritize making a working bookscanner, or at least a
regular scanner, at sudoroom, and putting mention of it on our website in
an easily read way. Our site is not the best for visually impaired people
to read, so we should keep that in mind when making changes.
also i am pleased to say that the robot arm has volunteered to help with
any bookscanning efforts, if we have a scanner and book that we are
willing to sacrifice in the name of training it to be gentle.
we can easily attach vacuum and air-blowing nozzles onto its hand, and it
can wield a flatbed scanner and place it onto the pages of the books,
given sufficient software intelligence and programming.

10:10 < jacques_> Hey, I have a reading disability and am looking for
access to a book scanner this week and
interested in working with book scanner hardware
and software with my local hackerspaces long
term. The scanners at noisebride and AMT are taken
apart currently and the book scanning
service at the digital archive only converts to
daisy as I understand it. I need to scan 2
250 page hardback books to text or PDF-text to be
able to do text-t[o speech conversion]
10:10 < jacques_> Do you have a book scanner or do you know where I can
accomplish this locally? I am a professional AV tech
with lots of video, audio, arts, books and DIY
experience.
10:22 < yar> jacques_: i don't think we have a book scanner. if we do,
it's definitely not well-documented or operational.
10:31 < jacques_> Who would you ask if you were trying to quickly find a
book scanner in the Bay Area?
10:32 < yar> idk, noisebridge's scanners may be taken apart but they still
have a "digitalarchivist" email list
where i've seen some activity recently
10:33 < yar> https://www.noisebridge.net/mailman/listinfo/digitalarchivists
10:34 < yar> oh wait that most recent email is probably from you, huh? :)
10:45 < jacques_> yes...(sigh) lots of discussion for this half-blind
half-deaf half-wit
10:45 < jacques_> but no scanno
11:00 < jacques_> sorry for that moment of self-pity. I am unable to read
books except with audio and am part of
an important campaign I need to ead a book by the 2
authors for short promo
http://youtu.be/CsJVwxwYhag a breif promo
11:04 < jacques_> without capital-ism, we would not need to have this
conversation because copy-right would not
have technology, books and all ideas locked up
11:33 < jacques_> called 3 tech shops techshop.ws for-profit hackerspaces
but still cannot locate in perhaps the
