YOs- James and I got robbed at gunpoint, right outside the side entrance, at about 2:45AM on Saturday 01 June. Nothing like thinking that you & a friend are about to die, to screw up an otherwise great night. No injuries, just terror. The guy wanted our cellphones. Lucky us, I don't have one and James had left his upstairs. He got our wallets. It could have been worse, he could have killed both of us. OK, time for the kick-myself-in-the-arse maneuver, for not having gone inside the moment we saw an unknown guy walking down the street toward us late at night. I should know better, hell I _do_ know better, but my safety-sense was down just long enough for the robber to get close enough to pull the gun, and the rest as they say, isn't history, just another statistic that got personal. QUESTION: HOW DO WE GET THE SURVEILLANCE VIDEOS FROM OUR BUILDING AND THE ONE NEXTDOOR? Peace, love, and safety y'all- -G.

sudodoor buzzer keeps buzzing the door open every 1 minute, someone left the door open

by Romy Ilano

- sudodoor keeps buzzing the door open every 1 minute. - someone propped the door open... i'm sure no ill intent intended. whoever did it, please don't do this, we agreed to keep the door closed - someone wrote in chalk in front of the sudodoor. whoever did it, please don't do this because we have an agreement with our landlord not to write in chalk on the sidewalk. ( a cheezy sf vodka company was writing lots of commercial graffit in front of our door )

MicroController Madness Night - this Tuesday evening at SudoRoom!

by Romy Ilano

*- This night will be blogged on the sudoRoom blog--stay tuned! code will be shared* A good night for both beginning and more experienced microcontroller users. Emphasis is on first principles, trying out new sensors and actuators , testing out new ideas that haven’t yet found a home in a project, and *cracking open black boxes* of all sorts for fresh ideas.

3D Printer - Basic G-Code Settings saved on gittorious / github / our server?

by Romy Ilano

Hi, Is there a file somewhere or a screenshot of the basic settings for our beloved Type A Machines 3D Printer? Clarification - the printer is working right now, but I'd like to know... cool guy made his own settings - I would like to create models in G-Code on my own version of Repetier host on my own computer! Best, Romy

This Sat. June 1st: Today I Learned: The Simple Computer

by Marina Kukso

Please join us this Saturday June 1st at 2pm for the FREE workshop “*Today I Learned: The Simple Computer*.” Perhaps you’ve heard of the 0′s and the 1′s. Perhaps you’ve heard of bits and bytes. But how do the 0′s and 1′s tell your computer to do things? How do we go from 0′s and 1′s to lolcats and code? How does the little box of plastic and circuits do anything at all? Want to have the most basic introduction to what a computer is and how it works? We will break a computer down to its most basic concept and answer any and all questions you will have (dumb questions, smart questions, normal questions – all questions are welcome!). Finally, we will take what we’ve learned and build a very simple computer! If we have enough folks come, we will BUILD A COMPUTER OUT OF HUMANS (WHAT?!)(YES.). Specifically, during this “Today I Learned” workshop we will: - Go on a quest to make computers *as simple as possible*. Intro to computer science. Understand how computers work! - Cover binary math and boolean logic - Make half & full adders made of water, marbles, rocks, dominos, people… - Build a very simple computer with 64 bytes of memory and 4 instructions *This workshop is part of the series “Today I Learned,” a series of free workshops that take place every Saturday at 2PM at Sudo Room, a creative community and hackerspace in downtown Oakland. Check out the full schedule at http://sudoroom.org/wiki/Today_I_Learned and please forward widely.*

Troubleshooting access to the video:

by GtwoG PublicOhOne

YOs- Wondering if it would be worthwhile to systematically troubleshoot the problem we're all having trying to access the video. MacOSX 10.6.8, using Firefox 20.0 and Safari 5.1.8. Enter the destination given directly by George the landlord: http://50.1.57.132:81 Shows a screen in light blue with the message "please click icon to load and install WebkitPlugin:" and "please restart browser to ensure WebkitPlugin can take effect after install!", and a dark blue arrow pointing downward as the clickable icon. Clicking the download button produces a typical sequence of events that go with downloading something. Restarting browser, with all privacy settings turned off, produces the same result. George the landlord was able to view the video on a desktop machine running WinXP, probably viewing it in MSIE. I'm going to guess that accessing the video requires WinXP w/ MSIE. I've got an XP machine with IE on it, but setting it up is going to be a pain (hint: first I'll need a desk-dozer;-) I'm not going to try on my Win7 machine which is exclusively for PBX/VM programming on my clients' systems. Any assistance in getting that video downloaded to a cross-platform format, would be much appreciated. This 21st Century Tower-of-Babel effect is beyond maddening. -G.

New Sudo-Cube model for 3d printing

by Rabbit

here enjoy http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:96468 I'd print some myself but I don't know how to switch the filament (since it obviously must be printed in red) Maybe we'll have hundreds of these things infesting the room soon, like in that movie or tv show about the things that reproduced too much. You know, that one.
