[omni-consensus] PROPOSAL: BIPOC and Oppressed Gender Safe Space Committee (BOGSS)

by Jake

Dear Sudoroom, Today I voted in behalf of Sudoroom in favor of the MOP proposal, and they are now a member collective of Omni Commons. I emailed about them on April 20th but didn't hear anything back, so I hope everyone is okay with that decision. Today a proposal was introduced for a new committee to be formed at Omni Commons to value and protect the safety and interests of BIPOC/Non-Men. this is the original proposal in PDF form: https://omnicommons.org/pipermail/consensus/attachments/… [View More]20220505/ab900701/a… this is an editable "cryptpad" and we are requested to "please leave comments in red" https://cryptpad.fr/pad/#/2/pad/edit/6IhZqwyXxN6CrEvtiljmnqTa/ actually this is a cryptpad copy of their document just for sudoroom, and I will forward our discussion to Rafiq to integrate our input. Other collectives are asking questions too, so if you want to be more engaged in the discussion, please join the [omni-consensus] list! But definitely make discussion here in the sudoroom list and get engaged. If Sudoroom members have concerns or objections, we need to communicate them promptly and work toward agreeable amedments. It is not an option to simply reject the proposal, but rather if you have specific concerns then we need to work with each other to address those concerns and come up with something agreeable. -jake ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Yardena Cohen <yardenack(a)gmail.com> Hey all, I'm boosting this email with a new subject line so that it's clear to readers - this contains an important new proposal!!! Brief summary: this proposal forms a congress of BIPOC and non-men from all Omni's groups, who then elect a small committee which has its own seat on the board, its own delegate, and a few specific powers related to addressing racism and sexism. This is an important step towards making omni representative and accountable! This finally begins to put our Statement of Solidarity into action! ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: rafiq.ali <rafiq.ali(a)protonmail.com> Date: Thu, May 5, 2022 at 12:16 PM To: <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org> I added a little note at the beginning on our proposal and the events from 2 weeks ago. Happy to provide a short statement. In general, I appreciate the apologies made and think this can be a growing opportunity to forge a stronger collective. If it's possible, we can open discussion on the proposal this week if enough delegates have had a chance to review with the idea of approving at the next delegate meeting (or worst case, the one after). As mentioned earlier, we are proposing the creation of a safe space Committee (see attached). We appreciate and accept all feedback/comments/concerns. In struggle, Rafiq CLP [View Less]

Visiting from Hayward Techies / Sun Gallery Makerspace

by Carl Gorringe

Hi Sudoers, As you may have heard, we're building a Makerspace at the Sun Gallery in Hayward. We are getting ready to purchase supplies for the space, but before we do so, we'd like to ask you if you happen to have any items on our list that you no longer need and would like to donate! In that way we can save some money to invest in things that we can't get donated. It was suggested that we come visit Sudo Room and take a look. So a few of us plan to take a visit there tonight during … [View More]

omni finances

by Jake

yes this is great news for Sudo But Omni Commons in general is not doing so well. As you may have noticed if you read the delegates meeting notes, we are due for a tax payment by the end of this month, of $60,400. And we don't really have that much, although we are going to be able to get the check to clear by creative shuffling of various accounts. if we don't pay the PG&e bill, we don't lose the building. if we don't pay the water bill, even if the water gets turned off we don't lose … [View More]

Chromebook Unlocking at Sudoroom Sunday 11AM

by Peter Mui

Hi Tom and cc: Sudoers: Thanks for for organizing this. I'm still hoping that FUSD will unlock the Chromebooks so check occasionally as you process them to make sure they're still locked. Also see: USPIRG’s petition to extend the life of Chromebooks: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc-QGoW0UzE0t0oUsKzM6Xsxft1kHM-d6b… For more background see “Chromebook Churn”: https://pirg.org/edfund/resources/chromebook-churn-report-highlights-proble… And Fixit Clinic's efforts to keep already … [View More]AUEed Chrombooks in service as general purpose computing devices: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JSbGXhJFJeABWVOn1wO4M6bPT-gPBLV4oQ85xMy… Maybe we can launch a broader "Keep 'Dem Chromebooks" public good program at Sudoroom and get a bunch of Linux-enhanced Chromebooks in circulation in the community to improve digital literacy, digital equity, and digital inclusion?

SudoRoom is on Shattuck Ave between 51st and Telegraph 4799 Shattuck Ave., Oakland, CA 94609 The entrance is on the corner of Shattuck and 48th https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wtxH4mtxL2HUe3y5JXJlhe7iqSDnikT8/view?usp=… The project this time is converting chromebooks to Linux. Peter Mui of Fixit Clinic was given a stack of EOL chromebooks from the Fremont school district. Unfortunately they neglected to unlock them first. But I have found that the bios can be reflashed so you can boot a Linux installer bypassing the Google check. I had a thought of using a Pi to do the flash as PI gpio can do SPI. But most of the chromebooks have 1.8V bios chips while the PI has 3.3V gpio. I probably have level shifters but I have recently dumped stuff unorganized into storage. So I will likely not find them in time. For now I am using a USB programmer with an 1.8V adapter. Yes I will also try to be online at meet.jit.si/Pi.BerkeleyLUG This will be a conference room mic and speaker in a shared space so maybe some background noise. Thomas P.S. You may be interested: SudoRoom has a hardware hack night every Tuesday from 7pm Also It's a Fixit Clinic.
