Hello!
A friend referred me to Sudo to see if anybody could maybe help me out in
fixing my laptop. It's a 2014 macbook pro, the battery had been fussy for a
while, then I didn't use it for a couple months and it started getting
slower with the mouse freaking out frequently. Then my friends cats knocked
a small amount of water onto it which I cleaned up, and now it wont turn
on. The charger also won't charge it.
Hopefully it's just an issue with the battery, what do ya'll think?
Thanks so much,
Juhlz
Does anyone have login access to the Sudo Room instagram account?
https://www.instagram.com/sudoroom/
It appears to be abandoned but I would like to begin posting about hack
nights to get people and the space activated. If we can't get access to
this account I may create a new one.

Hi, I’m Ron - Food Not Bombs volunteer and cook. I found an iPad 3 this week, but it’s locked, needs Apple ID and password for activation. Anybody know how to bypass this? Thanks.

Tuesday night around 10PM, two people came into Sudoroom while we were having
"Hardware Hacking Tuesdays" and one of them said he had been there before, and
he said his name was "El" or "Ellis". He was about 5'10" and had short black
dreadlocks and no glasses. I don't remember his friend's name, but he left
after not too long.
El asked for help with setting up speakers, asked if he could use the computer
for something, asked for various tools and seemed to be working on something
like hacking a piece of network gear that had been in the e-waste pile, which
seemed normal enough for someone coming to hardware hack night. We helped with
various requests but mostly he worked on it by himself.
He had his phone connected to the speakers near the laser cutter, and a few
times I had to ask him to turn down the music because it was making it harder
for us to talk to each other, but it wasn't a big deal.
He asked if he could smoke inside, which was one of several times the topic of
fire came up. Apparently at some point he said "I like to set things on fire"
but I didn't hear that. We told him that people don't smoke indoors and
someone took him outside and showed him the side doors so he could smoke out
there, and then he came back in. He went out and came back in a couple of
times.
Around 12:45 AM, I got up to go to the bathroom and when I got to the door to
the hallway next to CCL's entrance, it was closed, so I opened it and he was
standing there and said "there's a fire" and I turned and looked and there was
a paper shopping bag on the floor that was on fire. I yelled and stomped out
the fire and the others came to help. He said "You locked me out. You stole
my phone". I told him to gather his shit and we escorted him to get his phone
and other items, and I escorted him to the door and made sure he had all his
stuff with him and he left. I was unable to get a picture of him.
After he left I looked at the area where he was standing, and there had been a
sign or paper on the door that had been entirely burned, as well as the paper
bag set on fire. I poured water on everything and made sure there was no fire
left. Myself and the others present then went around the whole building to see
if there was anyone else inside the building.
The side doors (on 48th street) were not latched, although they were mostly
closed. We should probably try to make those doors close automatically.
If anyone else has information on "El" aka "Ellis" please speak up. One person
said "Well that's horrible. That guy has been to sudo many times before"
good night
