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?

Tablet security

by Natasha Zahn

Hello Sudo folks! Food not Bombs your neighborly collective at the Omni is looking to purchase a table/I-pad to better track food flow and inventory. The goal is to have the tablet installed on the main Fnb fridge downstairs but we also want to make it theft proof. Does anyone have advice on how to installed a locked tablet to a fridge ? Kind regards, Silver

Meeting tonight Wednesday at 6 pm

by Marc Juul

We'll have a meeting tonight at 6 pm both virtual and in person Here's the link for online participation: https://meet.jit.si/SudoRoomMeeting Cel may also provide a mumble gateway. Maybe we should make it a bit of a work-meeting around re-opening and fundraising? We can do a quick round of intros and updates and then proceed to our todos? # Covid safety info for showing up in person Some of us can meet in person. I can't find any specific guidance for hackerspaces so let's follow what CCL has been doing which is 25% capacity. The room's capacity as per fire inspection is 49 people max and we share the space with CCL so that's 6 people for sudo room. I'm just gonna declare that we probably won't have that many people showing up so we don't need to have people announce if they are planning to show. If you show up and there are already more than 6 people then you should wait outside and let us know and we can coordinate with people in CCL to ensure we don't exceed the 12 person room capacity. Everyone will need to wear a face covering even if you are fully vaccinated. Don't bring in any food, though a personal beverage is ok. There is a non-contact thermometer mounted by the entrance to CCL, please use it. Do no show up if you or someone you have been in contact with has had symptoms in the past 14 days. If you have hand sanitizer or electronics friendly disinfectant spray (e.g. 70% or higher isopropanol) then please some. Your access cards to Omni may have been deactivated. We will be monitoring IRC and of course the jitsi call if you need us to open the door for you. We can re-activate people's cards after the meeting.

[Discussion] Noisebridge financially supporting Sudo Room and the Omni Commons

by James Sundquist

What do we think of financially supporting the Omni Commons and Sudo Room as they continue fundraising [0]? Perhaps Noisebridge can help raise money and ensure stability! See this discussion thread on our forum, which anyone is welcome to join if they prefer to post there [1]. We would love input from Sudo Room itself, or those in the Omni Commons, to share their thoughts and suggestions. Thank you, and we look forward to engaging in this discussion!

by Eric O'Connor

____________ < Hello sudo > ------------ \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || || I signed into IRC and u:jerkey recommended I send out an intro email, so here it goes: Hello 👋, I'm Eric. I live in Oakland (near Grand Lake) with my partner and our son. I lead platform engineering and product security at Fivetran. In my free time I've been working on a DIY kitchen remodel and brush clearing (for fire season). I'm interested in federated computers/networks, sneakernets, multi-user computing/sandboxing, data analytics, climate change, energy & water infra, prescribed burns, and renewable energy. Currently reading "Fall, or: Dodge in Hell". Looking forward to meeting you all!
