it starts out dystopic but then it gets good.
a lot of people linked to this story when Amazon recently patented a
wrist-motion tracking thing that will obviously be used for the same kind of
dystopic BS in this story.
and there's transhumanist stuff in there.

Wanted to report that Running Wolf was seen in the Omni Commons tonight, Thursday, Feb 22nd at around 9pm using the upstairs computers. I and others at Javascript night discussed asking him to leave, but decided not to because of the cold weather and wanted to avoid conflict. There were only five of us and few others in the building. Please relay this to omni-discuss and the building working group.
Thanks,
grant

Hey y'all,
I've submitted a Declaration of Intent to Join. I guess I'm supposed to

I won't be available to come this next Wednesday, but the one after that I
should be.
Best,
Michael

Hi all,
I notice a giant accumulation of “stuff” on the soldering workbench closest to main area past week. Now there is only a tiny corner to work at. It would be nice if we could keep that area open. Suggestions for clearing this area and finding a home for this?
The Cap’n
thanks Robb for installing fresh linux onto the 3D printer computer!
lots of people helped to get our giant snarl of white filament onto a nice
spool, which is situated over the printer, and it extrudes cleanly now.
I also checked that the bed is level, and it is. So i'm guessing it would
print OK. But I ran out of steam setting up slic3r.
so if anyone wants to work on that, go ahead. The hardware should be ready to
go.
