The white FNB truck is not used during the middle of the day on Monday.
Give me a call then if you want to use it. 510 - 332 - 6535.
Does anyone in FNB have any concerns about this?

Hey Folks,
Seriously, we have over 100 AT6 punch down keystone jacks donated to
Sudoroom/SudoMesh.
Each one of them runs for $6.99 on Amazon.
If you would like to read the story about how this happened:
This AM Laura and I went down the street from Omni to drop off some
donations to de depot, and on our way back we saw a lady on her way to
donate some stuff too. But, when I read the label of one of the boxes that
read Panduit", my brain went in alert mode! :) So i asked her what was in
that box, she opened it for us and saw all those connectors! She asked me,
as you an artist? I said, not, but I know what these things are, and we can
use them! : ) She gave us the box. And that is how we got them. :)
Have a great weekend everyone!
Daniel

A great opportunity to get out in nature, do something for the environment,
help make our community a better place to live, and *be very publicly seen
as a force for Good in our neighborhood*!
The 21st Annual Oakland Creek to Bay Day
<http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/PWA/o/FE/s/ID/OAK024743> is coming
up Saturday, September 17. But *if we want to register as a volunteer
group, and propose a specific site to work on, we need to register TODAY
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScxmJHcUrUPLEyXjs1HKtX7M__XE1hYO8q…>.*
*Speak up asap if you'd like to participate, if you have any ideas for a
site to work on (here's the existing list so far
<http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/PWA/o/FE/s/ID/OAK024743#locations>;
we can propose more), and especially if you can help as volunteer
(co-)coordinator! *I would love to participate, but September is looking to
be a busy month for me, so I'd prefer not to be the sole volunteer
coordinator

robb,
since we got the zero-crossing detection working, now it's a matter of
deciding how many lamps to control with a single arduino. I believe this
instructable shows software that doesn't rely on the chip's timer being
tied to the triac control pins, meaning that it could be used to control 8
or more triacs with a single plain arduino.

He showed up at the previous Wednesday meeting.
I'm blocking this person's membership. He kept talking to us like we were
total noobs in running a hackerspace and he was going to tell us all how to
fix everything (though not taking on any tasks himself other than his
organizational LARP game idea). He kept trying to tell us about how
noisebridge is run even after I told him that we're no strangers to
noisebridge.
After reading some of his tweets I decided I'm just going to tell him he's
not welcome at sudo if I see him again. Let me know if anyone feels like
that's the wrong thing to do:
https://twitter.com/Xer0Dynamite/status/760708825934602240https://twitter.com/Xer0Dynamite/status/760710581926170624https://twitter.com/Xer0Dynamite/status/760711635363299329https://twitter.com/Xer0Dynamite/status/760714063710150656https://twitter.com/Xer0Dynamite/status/760717666256621569https://twitter.com/Xer0Dynamite/status/761043131710091264https://twitter.com/Xer0Dynamite/status/761043565447225344
And his twitter blurb about himself:
"...He comes from the future. Fought alone. Abandoned by the world I loved.
Silver bullets from the uber-mind. Suicidal without some pussy."
Here are his answers to member questions:
Why do you want to be a member of sudo room?: The people here are good and
want the place to succeed. I can save a well-staffed ship if it's sinking
or make it better engineered if it is not.
If you know already, what are you excited to do at sudo room?: Start a game
that will self-organize the many conversations that happen here.
If you know already, what are you excited to share with the sudo room
community?: One and the same as above, as the project is a LARP (think
Dungeons and Dragons crossed with Treasure Hunt), encouraging everyone to
play.
Have you ever been banned from another hackerspace? If so, when and why?:
No.
