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

Cheap tablet with LineageOS

by Marc Juul

Every now and again woot.com sells the 5th generation Amazon Fire tablet (from 2015), and a couple of weeks ago it popped up for $16 + taxes/fees. I bought one and it turns out that you can flash an unofficial older version of LineageOS, which is still being maintained for this device, and get a surprisingly good little tablet running 100% FOSS (well except the bootloader depending on which Fire OS version it has). I wrote up a short guide in case anyone else is interested: https://gist.github.com/Juul/3f93655efb8d99b89a29168dd255b5a2 Beware that I haven't verified this procedure on the latest Fire OS versions since the tablet i got didn't have the latest version and I didn't want to tempt fate. From forum reports it doesn't seem like woot is shipping tablets with the latest firmware anyway, but I can't say with any certainty. If you get one, just make sure you keep the WiFi disabled until the guide tells you to turn it on, to prevent it from auto-updating. -- marc/juul

Fwd: [omni-finance] Fwd: Will the Omni sponsor CR's 20th Anniversary (December 9th)?

by robb

any blocks/objections? ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Julio Rios <julio.rios(a)gmail.com> Date: Sun, Nov 25, 2018 at 3:25 PM Subject: [omni-finance] Fwd: Will the Omni sponsor CR's 20th Anniversary (December 9th)? To: <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org> Cc: <finance(a)omnicommons.org> Delegates, My apologies for not bringing this to a delegates meeting or by email sooner. *Please respond by December 1 if at all possible. * I asked the finance working group if the Omni could formally sponsor this event as an organization, and while everyone in the group agreed that we could and should, they requested that I make a formal request to the delegates since it would entail donating funds to an external group. Last year, I contributed $200 on behalf of the Omni and shared a handful of tickets for Omni folks to attend the Annual Critical Resistance program. This year, the event is even bigger and it features a conversation moderated by Angela Davis celebrating 20 years of prison industrial complex abolition. This year, Laura has agreed to cover half the amount for the minimum organizational contribution of $500, so I am requesting *for the Omni to contribute $250. * Thank you all so much for your consideration in supporting the ongoing work of this highly respected Oakland-based organization aligned with the values and mission of the Omni Commons. If this is approved, l please contact me privately if you are interested in attending the program on behalf of the Omni on December 9.

Alongside other abolitionists, we have achieved many victories -- from successfully stopping the construction of new jails in New York to Los Angeles, to ending the use of racist gang injunctions in Oakland and stopping California's 20-year prison building boom. Our campaigns, vision and strategies have been shared and used as blue-prints across the US and internationally. We invite you to join us in celebrating the gains we have made together, feeding our minds and our spirits, and preparing for the pitched battle of the next 20 years. Every donation, ticket or sponsorship will amplify the vision of liberated communities and the fierce, joyful will of our people to fight to win. *Poster design by Kate DeCiccio @k8Deciccio <https://www.instagram.com/k8deciccio/> and Jules Retzlaff @Cerealforthekids <https://www.instagram.com/cerealforthekids/>.
