Hi there! Does someone who knows 3D-printing want to do a little project? I'm looking to add a few more blades to this, so that it spins quickly and becomes a super efficient wind turbine! For anyone who remembers last year when I was there, this Would be the perfect complement to the home-made alternator I made then. This picture should diagram it well, let me know if you can help put together something, sweet. -- Ed Che.

I purposely let this spam through just to openly demonstrate the intentional predatory behavior of these domain squatters. But now I regret giving them a signal boost at all. Fuck these assholes. Please, nobody pay them anything ever.

Fwd: This Tuesday! East Bay Mini Maker Faire 2014 Town Hall & Kick-Off @The Crucible

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Anyone planning to go to this? I've helped staff a booth at the East Bay Mini Maker Faire for the past three years, and it's a blast. Very different vibe from the giant San Mateo MF - much more family and local oriented. Plus, the site at which they've been holding the EBMMF is literally walking distance from the Omni! (Park Day School and Studio One Art Center, between 42nd and 45th near Broadway) If we're involved in the planning, we might be able to wing having a whole Omni pavillion to ourselves, with booths from all the member groups. Either way, I'm volunteering to help run a booth for CCL.

Can Mary take the empty boxes located in the basement?

by Somebody

Hello, Mary just asked if she can take the empty boxes located in the basement. I mentioned to her that I would find out, because I didn't know. I will be leaving Sudo soon, someone please feel free to tell her or John. And please let me know, so I know she has gotten the answer. Many Thanks!

looking for OLPC donations

by Mitch Altman

My friend Hilary, in Oakland, is looking for donations of OLPCs for a school in Tanzania. If you can help, please see below: WANTED: OLPC XO-1 laptops. These machines were introduced through a ”Give One Get One” offer by One Laptop Per Child <www.laptop.org> a few years ago. Please check your closets to find these wonderful learning tools now hiding there. The XO is a potent learning tool designed and built especially for children in developing countries, especially those living in some of the most remote environments. It’s about the size of a small textbook. It has built-in wireless and a unique screen that is readable under direct sunlight for children who go to school outdoors. It’s extremely durable, brilliantly functional, energy-efficient, and fun. We are collecting these laptops for a new school in a rural area of Tanzania <http://www.aiscs.org/projects.php>. If you have no further need for your machine, please contact AISCS info(a)aiscs.org or call us: 510-273-9044 to donate it, even if you are not sure it still works. Thanks, Mitch.

But if you don't know what it is, or how you can use it to do all sorts of cool things, then this fun and easy workshop is for you.
