I've added the San Francisco, San Jose, & east bay bike parties to our calendar - let's recruit bike party people again!

by Romy Ilano

https://sudoroom.org/events/categories/others-events/bike-parties/ FYI I've added auxiliary bike party events (Fridays) to our SudoRoom calendar. If we want new members or people dropping by, it's a good idea to "market" to these folks - we had a great time when they came in a while ago to hack on their bikes all at once. https://sudoroom.org/when-the-bike-party-came-to-sudoroom/ what's nice is that the themes change every month for each of these 3 bike parties, and it's a new opportunity for people to be creative especially with costumes. It would also be a good idea to document "starter projects" (I never got around to work on my own bike personally and might add to the wiki) ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

by Romy Ilano

I'm looking for stuff to put on the sudoroom events pages and blog - has anyone created new year's celebrations or costumes? Religious decorations? Winter solstice pagan celebration LED costumes? If you'd like to share your photos we would love it! ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

spire has a buy nothing - clothing swap on Black Friday - should we do something similar

by Romy Ilano

https://sudoroom.org/events/black-friday-clothes-swap-the-spire/ Discussed this with Paige on Monday - November 29 (black Friday) the Spire down the street is having a clothing swap. This sounds like we could do some kind of measured donation on the same day to the free store (we don't want them to be overwhelmed) ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Can you help fixing this tv? fixit clinic

by Romy Ilano

https://sudoroom.org/fix-it-clinic-tv-can-you-help/ Can anyone help out with this fixit project? around a tv? Marc, and Mike opened up a 55″ 4K TV and discovered inside it’s a Toshiba Model K550WDR1 rebranded as a Best Buy Toshiba 551621U - When power is applied It flashes on briefly, shows the logo, and then goes out. Normally this would indicate a power supply issue, but after a little online research some people think the problem might be a firmware issue. *Can someone help to find firmware we can try to flash on this* *TV to see if that resurrects it?* <https://sudoroom.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/IMG_8281.jpeg>Examining the wounded television <https://sudoroom.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/IMG_20241105_224834.jpg> <https://sudoroom.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/IMG_20241105_222750.jpg> ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Should we create a lending library of stuff we actually don't want people to return?

by Romy Ilano

We have a lot of stuff? Should we create a lending library of stuff we don't actually care if people return or not? This would have less maintenance costs and effort than if we had a lending library of stuff we really want back (and we'd have to manage late fees etc) *a members-only "lending library" would help marketing our* - This could serve as a* big marketing plug for SudoRoom -* Hey be a member! You get access to our (wink wink) lending library where you can borrow stuff on the honor system - We could make a page where we give each item (like a cute glue gun) pretty stickers and a name. "Borrow Homer the glue gun! She has created universes you have never seen!" and have little animated cartoons ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Folks I updated the blog with some new blog posts

by Romy Ilano

Do you have any stories of project syou've worked on and how SudoRoom helped you out? - brainstorming a guide for total newcomers. It should have a flow chart and make it really obvious how to plan your projects, how to ask for help https://sudoroom.org/blog/ We are not "marketing" ourselves well enough for a big advantage that we have - we are nerds who offer an affordable hackerspace with ties to the community. Also holidays are coming up and people will be working on lights decorations for various religions, especially the christian and christian orthodox ones! and new year is a biggie. Has anyone worked on xmas lights before at the SudoRoom / new year's even decorations or costumes? that would be nice to feature on our blog ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
