dude, wait, what? i have never thought that this would be impossible
at sudo, and in fact have acheived it, albeit not upstairs, and not
for longer than forty five minutes at a time. still in the cherished
image i have formed in my heart of hearts this is what sudo is *for*,
so how could it not be possible there?
remind me to tell y'all the oddly haunting joke about
"spoiledmilktown" -- it pertains.
in any event, why not bring the force of all the tech know how we have
to bear upon the issue? create a cone of silence with white noise
makers and or fans aimed crossways along the perimeter of whatever
platonic shape describes our raum zum schärfen eigenen Gedanken, or is
it eigenen Scharfengedankenraum? God bless google translate.
this employs the incredible silencing qualities of the stream of noise
at tangent to the area to be protected. works wonders, even at noisy
parties, and not as uncomfortable as earplugs.
then there are always earplugs.
alternately, could we not soundproof a small section, with a pad of
paper outside where notes describing what no doubt emerged of
importance may be recorded for eventual delivery to & retrieval by
their Sudoer Of Interest?

oh no romy that sucks!
well, people used to use prosthetic legs which were basically a lower leg
that you kneel on top of. so picture an upside-down L and your bad leg is
bent at the knee 90 degrees. your lower leg is strapped onto the top part
of the upside down L.
you put a bunch of padding on the top, and use padding on the back of your
calf, and then you can wear it for hours and walk on it just fine.
people whose feet or legs were chopped below the knee walked around on
such things their whole life.

Hey all,
Here is the video on DIY Molecular Design & Cloning by Craig that was
held by CounterCultureLabs at sudoroom on 1/14/14. Video can be found
here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKiqh-FhyNo
Lecture details a basic overview of designing and cloning
microorganisms using open access databases.
Subjects discussed include:
- Primer design -- tricks, tools and resources
- PCR-based cloning -- methods and means for the DIYer
- Purification, Isolation and Verification
- Databases and software used for design and cloning
Join us for part II of this lecture series on cloning. Craig Rouskey
will talk in depth on PCR:
a. PCR Principle
b. Components/role of each component
c. setting up PCR/Making adjustments to reagents
d. making PCR buffers (Maniatis)
e. Reconstituting Primers
f. Working the thermocycler
Sign up for the event here:

Greetings!
I work for a startup, Open Garden, that builds mobile mesh networking
technology (for sharing internet between mobile devices). We've held a
couple of community meetups so far, and this Wednesday we're trying out a
Lightning Talks model!
Come talk about a project you're working on and meet others developing
peer-to-peer technologies and services - or just come enjoy the 'beer
garden' and learn about some cool projects! Free.

hey everyone,
i'm very new to the worlds of the sudo room but i thought that there might be interest in this design competition on this listserv.

unfortunately the deadline is in 5 days, but hey, grants have been won in less time!

Help! I am lost in a never-ending list of OpenStreetMap apps showcased on
their wiki <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Android>! Does anyone here
have any recommendations for a particular one? I have two requirements: no
proprietary software and yes navigation functionality (BONUS: topographic
features). I would also be down to team up with interested parties to split
the task of doing a systematic review of all apps listed.
w00t!

Hello!
I've been working with the fine folks who have put out the anti-eviction
maps and been doing some of the counter-displacement organizing lately.
Looking for some volunteers, particularly people who are able to put
together front end animations for critical pieces of legislation that are
coming up. But also stats and backend people as well. There is an
immediate need, but also some upcoming hackathons, which I'll announce
later.
If you or someone you know is interested in understanding and transforming
housing and income inequality in the bay area and has 133t skillz0rs,
please put me in touch!
Love!
Praveen
Hi there! I'm working on this concept, and could use feedback on some good
ideas of what's been done before
This is, so me, and you. I love you, Sudo.... All the thing we've worked on
before. So, I'm looking for some good ideas here as to how we can do this
right, I am designing the transition to not using money and so, would be
nice to have something that explained this paradigm better and more
appropriately to folks one would meet: http://freeworldcharter.org/ . Maybe
these books could have the concepts from the charter?
