Vending machine feedback

by Thomas Levine

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!

Problems on the Shattuck steps

by Laura Turiano

Hi everyone, I have received messages from a neighbor saying that she is increasingly concerned about the situation on the ballroom steps. It seems to have deteriorated lately. She says there are often "lots of people" out there and loud music is being played at various times of the day and night. The people are drinking openly and intoxicated. Lee and Danny's health problems have been getting worse so folks are frequently calling ambulances to take them to the hospital when they have seizures. She also believes someone (she did not accuse Lee or Danny) is dealing there at night. I asked if she could describe the person who is dealing and she couldn't. She has noticed cops patrolling more frequently and thinks that other neighbors may be calling them or complaining that they they feel unsafe. I think we need to have another discussion about how to handle this. There may be new people coming around. In the meantime, if you see people playing music loud enough for neighbors to hear, please ask whoever is playing it to turn it down. If you feel comfortable asking people not to drink alcohol, please also do so. What I say is something to the effect of, "we don't mind people hanging out on the steps, but if there is drinking, loud music or yelling, trash, or illegal behavior, neighbors are going to complain, call the cops, and that threatens Omni's existence. If we go away, whoever owns the building next is almost definitely NOT going to let folks sit here. So if it continues, then we won't be able to let people sit here." If anyone has any information about any dealing that might be happening, please contact me directly. I will keep your identity confidential. I have been encouraging Danny and Lee to get into a recovery program. Their friend Andrew is also trying to convince them and is willing to drive them to the program we have discussed. Laura

Re: [sudo-discuss] [omni-consensus] Proposal: Hire or Replace Me as Omni's Bookkeeper

by Jenny Ryan

Re: Timing - A quick glance at the edit history of the Google Doc I linked to in my proposal <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pZwwjGPjsCryp78dySTHFbrmiTZR-Q5FqQf82S5…> can demonstrate that I've been writing it since last October, knowing I would need to start generating my household's income this year and acutely aware of how much time Omni's bookkeeping work has taken in the past. It should be noted I'm essentially doing the bookkeeping for not one, but 6 collectives (Omni writ large, Sudo, LibLens, partial DIY [they have a secondary fiscal sponsor as well], The Village [a significant amount of work], and BAPS [tho they contributed $0 in 2019 and have no expenses]) and tax season is now upon us. I am unable to attend the Delegate's Meeting this Thursday as I'll be out of town, but happy to answer any questions or concerns remotely.

monthly meeting?

by Yardena Cohen

We're supposed to have Sudoroom meetings every third Wednesday. I forgot about it and didn't show up yesterday even though I'm supposed to be the Omni delegate. Oops. Did anybody show up? Did a meeting happen? Were any of the Omni proposals discussed or should I abstain on them all?
