The vending machine now provides some more feedback after money is put in. Source code associated with my contribution is here. I haven't documented the other components of the vending machine. https://thomaslevine.com/scm/sudo-vending Based on the implementation details, it appears to me that the bill acceptor is in fact plugged into one board (Arduino Leonardo) that is connected by serial to another board (Raspberry Pi). Why is the former board used at all? That is, why is the bill acceptor not plugged directly into the latter board?

reinstate Rannette's good standing

by Brendan Reddy-Best

I said "your 'community' space," but honestly, I still want this to be my space, too. I hardly ever make a fuss about any of this stuff because it's all so futile, you know? but in this case, I really want to make my point clear: I think we should rescind our action against Rannette. I think she's been treated unfairly. Even if she is "aggressive" towards you or your compatriots, I don't think we need white dudes policing our space of black women's bodies. Matt, you claim to have acted in another's interest and you offer an injured third party -- let them speak for themselves, because I don't think it's your place right now. If there was a violent incident that threatened our space, let's hear it from a witness or an involved party. "Something Happened" is not good enough. Otherwise "but above all the Omni Commons must maintain a safe, welcoming environment" seems to fly directly in the face of the lived experience of too many black people.

Call for Facilitators / Participants in a sudo Men's Group

by Matthew Senate

Hey all, I wanted to reach out for some feedback. Seeking folks who would want to facilitate or participate in a men's group. I've previously participated in small groups like this and found them beneficial for various reasons. I would like to see if folks have had similar or different experiences. The way I'm thinking about this would culminate in something like a regular meeting for men in the sudo room community to discuss relevant issues including those of identity, oppression, privilege, patriarchy, gender, sexuality, stereotypes, safe space, and mutual support. This may not be the best or even a viable path to approach these topics, but I wanted to throw it out there to see if there is any interest. Thanks, Matt

Re: [sudo-discuss] [CCL] Free Scanning Electron Microscope in Pleasanton! (was Fwd: [Microscopy] viaWWW:SMI3200 FIB system looking for a good home)

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Here's some images of the Seiko SMI 3200 Scanning Electron Microscope that is in need of a new home: http://www.beamservices.com/used-equipment.html http://www.caeonline.com/listing/product/9025735/seiko-smi-3200 Note that this is NOT a small system! It's not huge as SEM's go, but definitely not desktop - more like "small room sized". And it would obviously need some dedicated person to keep it in good running condition. It is however almost brand new, and currently *running*, at <5nm resolution! Beam Services Inc is down in Pleasanton, so I guess interested parties could potentially go and have a look at the system. This kind of equipment would be a significant commitment and investment in time and effort on our part, so let's coordinate on this shall we?

Re: [sudo-discuss] sudoroom 3D printer is working!

by Adam

Nope, just finding a good adhesive for reattaching it is hard. I ended up just using an open cell foam pad to push the header on the glass mechanically. Only advice is to not be too aggressive and let the glue take its time to release. Doingbot while warm would help. On Mar 21, 2018 1:34 PM, "Marc Juul" <marc(a)juul.io> wrote: Cool!

can we implement stuff-org at sudoroom?

by Jake

Henner wrote this awesome parts organizer web service, and it's running at noisebridge (and his house): https://github.com/hzeller/stuff-org here's the noisebridge implementation (type a letter to begin instant search): https://parts.noisebridge.net/# i would love to help fill it with information about the stuff we have at sudoroom, but i am not confident in my ability to install it and get it running on our network. If someone feels good about doing this, sudo make it happen and i'll help. -jake

Failed Payment Alerts

by Jenny Ryan

Lack of email reminders to members has been an issue for awhile now. It occurred to me that perhaps this was just a Stripe setting - seems it was! So now members will be notified by email when their payment fails, and notified 1 month in advance of an expiring card. https://stripe.com/docs/receipts#failed-payment-alerts Is this problematic to anyone? CC'ing some CCL folks who've mentioned this before.

Omni commons Wifi Down

Checked across several devices, the Omni Commons ssid is not available. No one present knows how to fix it. Any help appreciated. Thanks, -- *Donald Hanson* Creative Technology <https://donaldhanson.net>

Omni Commons wifi is unavailable

by Sierk

There was a (neighborhood wide?) power outage this morning. Unfortunately, after power came back online, WiFi did not. There is no Omni Commons ssid available (I checked in several locations through the Omni). Also unfortunately, nobody present knows how to resolve things. FYI, in case relevant, I believe that (internet access via) the modem came back online after the outage (because the relevant lights on the modem seem to be flashing correctly, as far as I can tell.) I've been told (but have not verified) that (at least some) wired connections here do have internet access. Sierk

Build Your Own 3D Printer in 1 Day!

by Patrik D'haeseleer

This Saturday, come join us for a whole day workshop (8am to 8pm!) on building a 3D printer at Counter Culture Labs, with some of the folks from Open Source Ecology. Build the open source 3D Printer with the lowest part count in the world. Learn about 3D Printing with step-by-step guidance in a supportive environment. To support Counter Culture Labs, this workshop hosted by Open Source Ecology is $10 recommended, but no one turned away due to lack of funds and free to participate (please register using the link below). Walk-ins are very welcome, especially if you're curious and want to swing by for a few hours or less -- Open Source Ecology wants to share something new and impressive with you. Register for FREE here: https://microfactory.opensourceecology.org/portfolio/1-day-3d-printer-works… We’ll show you step-by-step how to build this modular design in an accessible and straightforward way. You’ll appreciate how an open source 3d printer is designed and experience how teams can work together to build something amazing, even if they’re novices. Each team takes a 3D printer home to their community that they can use to build community-scale infrastructure or make 3D printed objects. To take a printer home, the price is $799. Compared with other open source 3D printers, ours can be built with off-the-shelf parts and our part count is half the others, making it easier to understand, build, and maintain. Because it is part of the Global Village Construction Set (for more info, please watch our founder's TED talk here: https://www.ted.com/talks/marcin_jakubowski), the OSE 3D printer is designed to scale and handle industrial production, which means if you want to some day build a 3 foot printer, this is the printer for you. Additionally, every CAD design of the 3D printer is available in its entirety, so if you want to change out printer heads to print something other than PLA or ABS plastic, our design makes this process significantly easier, especially because we have a 300 page manual to support builders and a process to continually improve documentation. Claim your 3D printer TODAY for 1 of 2 possible builds by registering here: https://microfactory.opensourceecology.org/portfolio/1-day-3d-printer-works… Schedule The event runs 8am-8pm. Specific timing depends significantly on how we progress as a group but generally we follow a timeline like this: 8am: Introduction. Applications of the 3D Printer Construction Set. 9am: Morning Build Session 12pm: Break 1pm: Afternoon Build Session 5pm: Break 6pm: Printer Calibration & First Prints 7pm: Review and Learning Discussion 8pm: Event ends Special Offer Registration secures your placement in this workshop to build and take home a 3D Printer. Participants are welcome to bring along one or more persons to share in the educational experience and assist the build for no extra cost. The workshop is a fast-paced collaborative experience and goes well with many helping hands!
