Hullo S(tan) P(ublishes) A(wesome) Z(ines) & other worthies,
This weekend at the Land of Broken Refrigerators---aka the 'Coon Shack, aka our permission
squat located in a warehouse in one of San Francisco's few green oases---myself, Glamortramp
& a mysterious entity known only as +11+ will go into full production mode on the first issue
of "RESISTOR: a Zine for those holding on for dear life to San Francisco (as well as those we
have already lost)."
https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2014/08/10/18759852.php
I o w, zine-making party in SF this weekend, and no one is invited! We've got glue sticks,
scissors, a ream of 11 x 17 paper, & a semi-working laptop, which is all we need to slap this
first issue together. So we don't need your help. But we will be happy to give you a print
copy of RESISTOR #1 in person the next time we cross paths in SF. So if you want one, let us
know.
We plan to print 100 copies or so of this first issue. It will be online eventually but we
can't tell you where or when just yet. One or two issues of RESISTOR will be produced before
we move north (at long last!) in late September or early October. Back to the Pacific
Northwest---finally!---where it may still be possible to leave the raccoon life behind & live
once again like a human being, with the comforts of modern civilization.
Then again, that sounds kind of boring, & there's something to be said for the raccoon
life---so either way, we'll be all right.
We could use help printing the zine! Black & white on tabloid (11 x 17" paper) is what we
need. If you can help, let us know! Drop us a line here or at sfresistor(a)riseup.net.
Peace etc.
+11+

Hi,
I am looking for someone that is skilled at electronics and mechanics who would have availability to help me with some upcoming small art projects. Prefer someone in the east Bay because that is where I live. I’m willing to pay $$ for your time, please contact me if interested, thanks,
Tracy

for those of you wanting to program the giant robot from another computer,
here is the place to start learning its language:

page 51 seems to be a good place to start reading.

Agreed, the board definitely needs to start scheduling its next
meeting now. The last one was November 2013 iirc.
This is so RAD. Bravo.

</div>the robot finally works. Jenny got us a three-phase power converter and
that's all it took! people have been steering it around using the
training pendant all night. It makes a squealing noise while it's on.

it has a serial port. we are going to need to RTFM a bit to learn how to
actually control it, for example from a program on a real computer.
it can move much faster than we are able to steer it with the control
pendant. But for now it moves pretty slow, even on "fast" mode.
here are all the PDFs i have found so far. I believe there is enough
information in here to be able to communicate with the thing over the
serial port. If you want any help actually connecting serial to it,
please let me know.
I would like to plug it into a serial port on the 3d printing computer,
and then people will be able to talk to the robot from their laptop using
socat or whatever program they run on that computer. Let me know if
you're interested in doing that. But first read the manuals, and put
whatever you find on the wiki page so the rest of us know where to start.

Hello Sudo,
I want to make it clear that eventually - not right now - I want to find a
replacement for myself as Sudo Treasurer.
*Responsibilities*
The things the Treasurer has to do are:
(i)be responsible for filing yearly taxes,
(ii) deposit misc. funds into the bank account
(iii) give out misc money that sudo room approves
(iv) report to sudo room the state of finances.
*Fundraising*
Additionally, since Sudo Room is once again receiving less income each
month than expenditure, a good Treasurer would have some fundraising ideas,
and/or want to execute other's ideas.
My reason for leaving is to clear up space in my life for a career change -
not because the job is terribly dramatic, difficult or involved. (Post
Burning Man mental spring cleaning :) )
Thanks for listening,
Max Klein

Someone please troll this event. The free ticket link is re-usable and

Hi sudo!
October 2nd at The Folsom Street Foundry in San Francisco: twenty
of SF's leading tech orgs (GoPro, Twilio, Homejoy, 2k, Indiegogo,
Intel, etc) are attending to meet and network with passionate
technologists. Based on your Git profile, we'd be thrilled to
offer you a complimentary VIP ticket ($50 value).
This is a discreet and private event. Invitations are being doled
out prudently. Lots of networking and career ops will be present.
Purely exploratory.
Here is the special link with more info (use promo code GIT-LD for
your free ticket): http://goo.gl/8FvVr7
Please do not share this info with anyone. If you would like to
bring a qualified friend, or if your company is hiring and would
like to attend, I can help with that.
Can you lmk either way?

In two weeks, on September 20th, the omni will host this event:
http://criticalresistance.org/oakland-dreaming-wildly-fighting-to-win-with-…
They are expecting 300+ people, for many of whom this will be their
first time at the omni, and first impressions count a lot!
We'll need a high quality sound system with at least one portable
microphone ready for this. Ideally it will be something durable,
failsafe and easy to use.
Who's willing to work with me to make this happen? Please reply here
or contact me privately. I am no expert but will work hard alongside
you. I would like to meet within the next few days to plan logistics,
and have the system fully set up and ready for testing by next Monday
the 15th. Thanks!
