October 2024 - sudo-discuss

by Peter Mui

Hi sudoers: There’s a Toshiba 55l621U 55” 4K TV in sudoroom I’d like to put in service as the new jitsi and discord telepresence monitor. But it’s currently not working: it flashes on briefly and then goes out. Normally this would indicate a power supply issue, but I’ve done a little online research and some people online claim the problem might be a firmware issue, e.g. see https://forums.tomsguide.com/threads/toshiba-55l621u-wont-turn-on-properly.… Can you do some more online … [View More]

Fwd: Roof Renovation Starting TODAY

by Paige P

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Valerie Jameson <valerie(a)thecalli.org> Date: Tue, Oct 29, 2024, 9:08 AM Subject: Roof Renovation Starting TODAY To: omnidelegates <omnidelegates(a)googlegroups.com> Cc: Patrik D'haeseleer <patrikd(a)gmail.com>, <cultlabsboard(a)googlegroups.com> Hi everyone, After some uncertainty the roofers arrived today at 8:30 am and are starting on the 48th street corner. Closest to CCL and the disco room. They will be moving … [View More]clockwise throughout the building in sections. Most of the tear down is happening in the next 72 hours and the entire project is slated to last two weeks. They will wrap up daily by 4-5 pm. They have a 4 person crew : Cleaver is the Forman, Marcelo, (another person) and David as the Project Manager. They are using the neighboring properties' parking spaces to fit their equipment. I have yet to speak with their Project Manager this morning, but will get end of day updates starting today. *Roof work preparation:* - Avoid parking on Shattuck - Discourage folks from hanging out outside - Remove hanging items and things on walls - Be cautious and move items that are stored too close to one another that can crash -bump against each other due to unavoidable vibration during tear off - Consider wrapping items in a protective material. - Secure items in bins/boxes that are sensitive to dust - Place tarps or plastic sheeting to avoid debris and dust falling on personal property - Consider wearing an K95 grade mask or higher to avoid inhaling any toxins from chipped paint etc. I will be on site early today and tomorrow to offer support to groups that need it. Feel free to reach out to me on Slack or email to get in touch. -- *Valerie Jameson* (she/ella) Property Manager - 4799 Shattuck Avenue <https://www.google.com/maps/search/4799+Shattuck+Avenue?entry=gmail&source=g> *Collective Action & Land Liberation Institute (CALLI) * CALLI Website <https://www.thecalli.org/> East Bay Permanent Real Estate Cooperative Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/ebprec> | X <https://www.x.com/ebprec> | Instagram <https://www.instagram.com/eb.prec> | YouTube <https://www.youtube.com/ebprec> | LinkedIn <https://www.linkedin.com/company/ebprec> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "omnidelegates" group.

Misfit Shine and other no-longer-supported wearables?

by Judy Tuan

I just found my old Misfit Shine, an activity tracker from around 10 years ago. All its apps appear to be down. Does anybody know how to decode bluetooth signals, maybe we can get step data off of the thing and start using it again? Does anyone know of a wiki or something of defunct fitness gadgets and their open-source life support? lf such projects exist in the world? Maybe there are things for really popular old fitness trackers but I don't think the Misfit Shine ever got much traction lol. … [View More]

Sudo Room hours and access rules under new ownership

by Paige P

Hi everyone, Please read over the attached lease we signed with the new building owners, CALLI. CALLI recently asked us to list who our "Designated Individuals" will be. It looks like they are asking for up to 6 people, 3 with "extended access" from 9pm-12pm and 3 with 24 hr access. Until we choose "designated individuals" and work out the side door access with CALLI, *we are limited to using the building only during open hours from 7am-9pm (7 days a week). * It makes sense to me to have … [View More]

by Spicy Bits

Hello everyone, The Chaos Communications Congress (CCC) is happening again this year between December 27th and 30th in Hamburg. Does Sudo Room want to apply to get early bird tickets?

Pilfer/Theft Proof Money Donation apparatus for Free Store (and Sudoroom)?

by Peter Mui

Hi Sudoers: Now that the Free Store has to pay rent: can we design some sort of donation apparatus for them that can accept money but is not easily pilfered? My initial thought is some sort of large free-standing but heavy plastic tube structure (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorade_box) but I'm open to other ideas. Bonus points: add some sort of fun sound as in this youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbEKAwCoCKw We could make these for sudoroom and the fabric and … [View More]

Sudoroom volunteers needed! for membership and nonprofit administration

Sudoroom needs people to volunteer for administrative tasks! Including the new nonprofit organization being formed, and more importantly, for communicating with members and reminding them (you) to pay your monthly dues! We also have a backlog of membership applications which need attention, formally approving those who have three endorsements and no blocks, and reminding the others to get one or two more endorsements so they can be complete.

Arduino 101 aka Intel Curie w/bluetooth

by Jake

I know where there a bunch of these, but they're a little bit deprecated. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/retired/13787 Does anyone think there's a good project that could be made with these things, that could be offered as a kit for people to build during a class at Sudoroom? Maybe some sort of music making thing, or an art piece that makes patterns onto an old monitor? It's a very powerful computer, in an arduino form factor. -jake
