by Jake

hello everyone, it appears that someone was cleaning up around the 3d printer and they decided to throw away or remove a lot of stuff that was in the bottom of the printer. this included the fiberfrax insulation for the extruder head!!!!! if you know where this material went, please bring it back to the printer, otherwise we will have to get new insulators from the manufacturer. thank you, -jake

"keep in mind that i do not want anyone to be uncomfortable because of me". says that because he is a political figure that there will always be oppoonents. now feels uncomfortable because he doesn't understand that why elliot. gives a message that he wants to be here and help - Eventually, sudo came around to realize that our actions during the meeting are not the best execution and interpretation of our Conflict Resolution procedure of the Articles of Association, ending the conversation about the details of any specific conflicts. - tl;dr shake tried his best but we can't do anything because the other person never showed up - If anyone has a conflict or wants to resolve things they may have heard or speculate with other members, reach out to the person in question, or find another sudoer to act as a mediator. mate made $128 5.

Help me with my desks

by Thomas Levine

Hi, Firstly, I want to get rid of my current desks and non-chairs. Here's what they look like. (They're sized so I can use them while sitting on the floor.) https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_jq7klTEotEb2NJLTFLa3BDNnc/edit?usp=shari… I quite like them, but I want something more portable. If you'll use/hack them, you can have them and/or the cushion that I sit on. In case it affects your interest, you can easily take the legs off the desks. Secondarily, I'm going to replace these desks with a lightweight contraption that folds up into a tiny thing that I can carry on my head. In order to construct this new desk, I need to acquire some tempered hardboard, so I'm looking for someone to take me to Home Depot. http://timebank.sfbace.org/reqs/3081 Tom

Help the SELC win $20k!

by Vicky Knox

Hey everyone! The Sustainable Economies Law Center (the same place Marc, Eddan, Timon and I all went to for free legal advice) is an applicant in a competition in which they could win $20k from Sungevity! It's one of those popular vote competitions. If you're interested in voting, please see the details below, including what the SELC will do with that money (bottom-most section). ykciV ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Christina Oatfield (Vicky's friend and a legal apprentice at the SELC) Hi friends! The nonprofit that I work for, the Sustainable Economies Law Center<http://www.theselc.org/> is a people-powered organization, sustained by generous and dedicated supporters in the community. I'm writing to ask you to take a minute to help SELC win $20,000 by casting your VOTE<http://www.sungevity.org/gives-back> for us! I know, I know, I think these online voting schemes are really annoying, too, but we think we have a really good chance of winning this one and the publicity doesn't benefit any evil corporation, but rather, a really awesome local solar power company, Sungevity, which we are happy to promote through this campaign (my parents have been happy customers for years). When you vote, please also opt into the secondary step of "boosting" your vote which basically means you add on 10 extra votes. It requires that you provide a physical address. *Four Quick Steps: * - Click VOTE <http://www.sungevity.org/gives-back> ( http://www.sungevity.org/gives-back) - Include your email and zip code - Select* Sustainable Economies Law Center* from the list of organizations and submit your vote! *Don't Forget to BOOST YOUR VOTE BY 10 EXTRA POINTS:* - Anyone: sign up for OurSungevity after you vote--it's *EASY and FREE*! OurSungevity is a online platform that allows you to spread solar in your community through different media (if you choose). You can even earn $500 if you refer Sungevity a new client. - Homeowners: sign up for an iQuote to get solar on your home.[image: Inline image 1] <http://www.sungevity.org/gives-back> Vote on! *What will SELC do with this $20,000?* SELC believes communities shouldn’t BUY power. We should OWN power! We’ll create model policies and legal structures for community-owned renewable energy <http://www.theselc.org/community-renewable-energy/>. This includes viable replicable models, essential legal documents, and model policies for community- and cooperatively-owned renewable energy projects. We have some amazing volunteers and staff putting some extra time into creating this program currently, but we're looking to hire a dedicated attorney to really build up this program. *Who is funding this Competition?* Here at SELC, we're conscious of where we get our funding. Sungevity is an innovative solar company focused on creating the world’s most energized network of customers who power their lives with sunshine. Hugs, Christina

Fwd: This Sat. 6pm: Organizing mtg to stop Oakland's mass surveillance system, NSA protest in SF

by Marc Juul

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: actionforprogress <actionforprogress(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu, Nov 14, 2013 at 10:35 PM Subject: This Sat. 6pm: Organizing mtg to stop Oakland's mass surveillance system, NSA protest in SF To: ad hoc network <actionforprogress(a)gmail.com> Hi all, Please attend an organizing meeting to stop the warrantless surveillance of our communities this Saturday, Nov. 16 at 6pm at the Sudo Room in Oakland at 2141 Broadway at Broadway and 22nd st. The entrance is on 22nd St. Oakland City Council is trying to create a mass Orwellian surveillance center (called the Domain Awareness Center), that would allow police to track all residents and visitors. This center would centralize surveillance camera footage, phone calls, licence plate readings, and social media information for use by local and federal law enforcement. This will most likely lead to drones and facial recognition technology. The Department of Homeland Security is behind this project with a $7 million dollar grant to fund it. In the wake of the Oscar Grant, Trayvon, and Occupy revolts, as well as the continuing push by local elites to gentrify the bay area, such a project is paramount in the suppression of the local population. The ACLU, the Electronic Frontier Foundation and even the NY Times all agree that this is an unprecedented attack on our civil liberties. The NY Times basically warned its readers of the larger implications of these systems as they can spread to more cities. Oakland will be the leader in this tactic and it is a shame the city council has already gone forward as much as it has. We are organizing for a community response and rally for this Tuesday at City Hall to SHUT THIS PLAN DOWN! Please attend the organizing meeting this Saturday at 6pm to help us increase our numbers and make an impact. Recently we have seen working class people of color and activists from Oakland fight successfully against the proposed youth curfew. If we bring enough people to City Hall, we can stop this!!!! Thanks for all your good work, -Zaigham P.S. We will also discuss an upcoming protest in SF: Mass March Against the NSA Articles: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/14/technology/privacy-fears-as-surveillance-… https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2013/08/oaklands-creepy-new-surveillance-prog… Attached is a flyer for this Tuesday's Rally at City Hall

Hosting an event at Sudo: How to create a community bank with your friends online Nov 27th 6 PM

by Alex White

Hello Sudo Room! I have been by the Sudo Room a few times now and love the space and really appreciate what a great resource it is. I would like to host an event at the Sudo Room about how to create a community bank online using puddle.com. Puddle is a website where you can create your own autonomous community bank. I met the co-founder of the company and he would like to come do a presentation and Q&A. (I'm just helping him find a space, and thought Sudo would be great.) I've never put together a meeting at Sudo, and am not a member, so I'm not sure what the protocol is, but I think this is very much in line with the philosophy of Sudo and I'd love to do it there. What do I need to do from here? Any help would be much appreciated. Here is an article about the site and what it is doing: http://www.forbes.com/sites/ashoka/2013/08/05/creating-a-line-of-credit-wit… Thanks so much, Alex -- Twitter: Alex_C_White FB: Facebook.com/alexcarlwhite
