SudoKit first draft ->>>>

by Romy Ilano

Hi I've posted more of the first draft of the SudoKit learning box. It is intended to be a collaborative project, with an emphasis on making stuff fun and cool to irreverent teens and weird adults https://sudoroom.org/wiki/SudoKit#First_Draft SudoKits First Draft Small animals, kids, and adults start out holding a pretty box full of SudoKit stuff. It holds learning placemats, shadowbox tool placemats, and small useful charms like an hourglass to measure time spent offline while learning stuff (internet addiction is a big problem) How to use [image: sketch for the SudoKit mats. Help curious souls make sense of the infinite possibilties] <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/File:SudoKit_Sketch_-_the_mats.png> Box of Stuff [image: Lots of things to keep us in the material world, not just the digital world. we learn by touching and talking and doing.] <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/File:SudoKit_full_of_stuff.png> - Material SudoKit keeps people from spending too much time in an abstract, social media world while at the SudoRoom - Touching and holding things is important for learning, especially for folks who don't enjoy book learning. - It's debatable whether people have skills in learning in some ways but hackerpsaces emphasize learning by doing, and having a set of things to touch and hold is proven to work with other inspiring projects - Various members can contribute and will have fun recycling stuff and creating beautiful learning kits - this is extensible Placemats There are multiple sets of these and placed inside the sudokit. people take them out and put them down at a tablespace. the idea is that they don't have to deal with the "blank page" problem when first walking into SudoRoom. there is a starting point. [image: first draft of the placemats] <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/File:First_Draft_SudoKit_Placemat.png> Time Offline [image: how can we make it fun and rewarding for people to limit their internet addiction?] <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/File:Tracking_time_spent_offline.png> Vast treasure trove of the internet has an inherent danger. People can go online to learn about creating vegan shoes, but then be distracted by philosophy papers or softcore porn. I haven't figure it out yet, but there must be a fun way to help people enjoy styaing offline if they see the benefits. It would be cute to have a small hourglass that they can put on the placemat... a personal contest of staying offline? Some people will naturally object and say that staying online is what they want to do. But what if you aren't coding? do you need to be that plugged in? this idea is still pretty nebulous and would need some help. Tool Shadowboxing [image: Keep your tools] <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/File:Shadowboxing_wutang_style.png> With electronics there is so much stuff people can easily be overwhelmed. One of the placemats should have a "shadowbox" like they use in factories.

networking resource suggestions

by Candace Lazarou

Hello mesh people: I am struggling with some fundamental networking concepts as I try to discern between WDS, WDS Repeaters, WDS Bridges Repeaters, Bridge Repeaters, Client Modes, Client Repeaters, etc. I've done the requisite reading up with docs and forums, doing my best to discern reliable sources, but what I'd really like to do is get a good understanding of what the hell is going on on a somewhat technical level. Is there well respected networking bible or something? Any suggestions?

SudoKit idea - First draft, interested in ideas

by Romy Ilano

Hi, I'm working on a learning KIT project called SudoKit. It's to enable learning at the SudoRoom that is fun SEEKING: collaboration in making this fun ideas for various placemats so that people can explore the space ideas on how to get visitors to contribute to the collective instead of only working on their own projects It involves getting a placemat for every visit so that you can have your own "space" to learn and work. It helps solve the "blank white first page" problem (or if you are goth the first blank black page) the idea is - keep you from spending all your time online or hunched over a computer - also it's like a "shadowbox" in a factory, you keep all your tools in one place. - physical world instead of the digital world exclusively Here is the first draft https://sudoroom.org/wiki/SudoKit#First_Draft Here is how people would use it https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/images/f/fd/SudoKit_Sketch_-_the_mats.png ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

please join the taxes list

by April Glaser

hi all, we are creating a sudoroom 501c3/legal needs private email list. anyone who is involved in the inner-workings of sudoroom is welcome to join, but otherwise we are keeping the list closed, as per the recommendation from a lawyer and realizing it's important to have security around some things. we talked about this at the meeting the week before last and ok'd it. we will OF COURSE share all developments with the larger list. and no decisions will be made without consult of sudoroom. it's just to make sure we don't have a public list with private information on it. let me know if you want to join or if you have any questions about the list. and i'll add you or answer your inquiry. all my best, april
