free tools, dollies and storage up for grabs 10am tomorrow

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Anyone have time to drop by this place tomorrow at 10am sharp? http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/zip/5363426630.html They've got a bunch "tools, dollies, storage, and packing supplies" up for grabs. Tools and dollies we can *always* use more of. Don't hope for any lab gear though - this is the same place I checked out a few weeks back, so this is just their leftover pile. I expect all the useful stuff to be gone about 5-10 minutes after they open...

[!] Need Qurorum @ tonight's meeting to Change Banks for Sudo

by Matthew Senate

Hey all, Sudo did a straw poll last week to get the ball moving on this, but need quorum to come to a decision about switching banks. It doesn't seem too controversial to me, there aren't that many options anyway. https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Meeting_Notes_2015-12-09#Move_to_Western_Federal_… Long and short of it is that sudo's current credit union, Internet Archive Federal Credit Union (IAFCU) is struggling to stay open. The credit union members took a vote that was due Dec 8th about whether or not to liquidate the credit union. Sudo Room did not vote on behalf of its membership, but the evidence is pretty convincing that this is a failed experiment and it's time to reorganize and try new things: https://blog.archive.org/2015/11/24/difficult-times-at-our-credit-union/ Western Federal Credit Union, is large, stable, now supports quickbooks, and is where Omni Commons holds its main account currently, making payments very efficient. It seems like a no-brainer, and I personally have not found any more appealing options. For instance, Bank of the West is closing its Temescal branch location, part of long-term closures, so there is no obviously close credit union to our current location at 4799 Shattuck. Finally, it'd simply be nice to see your faces at sudo tonight, just to say hi and catch up, possibly before some of us go out of town for holidays, etc. // Matt

Keep Omni safe and secure over the holidays

by Laura Turiano

Friends, At the Commons working group meeting we were discussing how, last year, over the winter holidays, many of the people who usually spent time at the Omni were not around. What resulted was people without an interest in taking care of the Omni and our community entering the space, engaging in conflict, and ignoring community agreements. With that in mind, we would like to ask Omni collective members who are in town over the next several weeks to come by the space on a regular basis and check the building to make sure everything is secure and that the space is being used appropriately. All the doors (Ballroom, main entrance, and the two 48th St doors) should be locked at all times unless there is a member of a member collective keeping a door unlocked for a particular reason (such as loading, or an event) and someone is keeping a eye on who is coming into the building. Please remember that non-members can only be in the building as guests of a member. If you let someone into the space, you are taking responsibility for them. From omnicommons.org/wiki/building: Only members of member collectives are granted 24-hour access to the space. Members are asked to not occupy the space without at least one other member present for safety reasons. Members are not obligated to let non-members in to the space at any time. Members may ask non-members to leave the space at any time, for any reasons. If your collective is hosting an event or class, one of your responsibilities is to make sure everyone leaves after the event is over. Please ensure members of your collective understand this information. And please sign up for an ongoing door shift here: https://ethercalc.com/omni-front-desk. <https://ethercalc.com/omni-front-desk> Thanks to everyone for your hard work and friendship over the past year. Laura, for the Commons working group

Meeting re how the BID can best support Omni Commons (fwd)

by Jake

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2015 23:52:15 -0800 From: Shifra de Benedictis-Kessner <shifra(a)temescaldistrict.org> To: Jake(a)spaz.org Subject: Meeting re how the BID can best support Omni Commons Hi Jake! I am the new Executive Director for the Temescal BID, and I'd like to set up a meeting with you and/or any other decision makers at Omni Commons to get to know your organization, and learn how I can best support you. I've shared some of your events on Facebook, and taken a short tour of your space (as well as attending the Bicycle Music Festival after-party in your space!). But I'd like to know best how to talk about all your amazing organizations, as well as your over-arching mission. I offer marketing and promotions support to all the organizations and business in the district, as well as coordinating the cleaning, and graffiti removal in all the different zones. I am eager to hear your issues, challenges, and successes. I'm also interested in finding out if Omni Commons rents out space for events on a regular basis, and if I could possibly publicize. People frequently approach me for meeting/event space available in the district. And on a different note, the storage unit that the Temescal BID's clean team uses will be demolished in less than 4 weeks to make way for the development at 51st and Telegraph. The BID is urgently looking to find the team a new storage unit in the district, and we are willing to rent one. We are definitely interested in both temporary and permanent solutions given the urgent need. The team needs a space on the ground floor, ~200-250 square feet. The team needs access 5 days a week (M-F) starting at 8am and ending at 2:30pm. Do you happen to have any extra space available? Please let me know when you would be available to meet? Omni Commons is an important stakeholder in the Temescal BID. Best, Shifra -- Shifra de Benedictis-Kessner Executive Director Temescal Telegraph BID 4430 Telegraph Ave #49 Oakland, CA 94609 510 860-7327 shifra(a)temescaldistrict.org www.temescaldistrict.org https://www.facebook.com/temescaldist

embroidery machine

by Jake

people have been using the embroidery machine lately. you might notice a piece of fabric on it with practice runs on it, and a black piece with SUDOROOM in green thread. the machine works perfectly. if you want to learn how to use it, I can show you anytime i'm there, including every tuesday evening starting at 7pm. For now you need to use a stencil to get lettering. (although you can certainly try to freehand stuff) There are a couple of sets of letters you can set up to spell out your name or whatever. you could also take a thin piece of wood and carve a design into it, and use it as a stencil. You could also (easily) 3D print a stencil with the design of your choice on it. There is probably also a way to use the laser engraver to make a stencil, although the groove in the stencil should be a bit wider than the laser beam. Probably the right settings and the right wood would produce a good stencil after a single pass. Also, the embroidery machine can be used as a sewing machine, in which you can move the fabric in any direction (not just in a straight line). The catch being that you have to move it yourself and it won't guide you or help you keep a pace. The hardest part is controlling the speed using the pedal.. It's like a clutch on a sports car, it takes some getting used to. Let me know if you want a lesson. -jake

line printer at sudoroom!

by Jake

I brought in a Panasonic KX-P2180 Dot Matrix printer a while ago, and someone found some tractor-feed paper for it. I want to use it to print lines from IRC when someone says 12:34 < jerkey> !print 12:33 < sudobot> DOOR EVENT: RichardStallman swiped into the building the printer will actually print that line onto the paper and advance one line like a typewriter. this is what a dor-matrix printer looks like in action: (ours will be printing lines of text, not graphics) https://youtu.be/qlEUrEVqDbo?t=28 so i got a USB to parallel converter, and i plugged it into the desktop computer next to the 3D printer. It comes up as /dev/usb/lp0 because of kernel module usblp, which sees the hardware and makes that device. If i become root, i can do echo "hello world" > /dev/usb/lp0 and it will print "hello world" to the paper, and advance to the next line. this works a couple of times, but then the printer stops printing, and then the command doesn't exit, until you press a button on the printer and then it prints SOME of what you sent it, and you have to press the button again and again... it makes no fucking sense. I experienced this in the past too, playing with the same kind of printer, probably under DOS, and I never figured out what the fuck was wrong. any ideas? the printer is still set up on the desk if you want to play with it. -jake

No TA3M SF in December. Have a great break.

by Danny O'Brien

December, January and February are always a little awkward for USian Techno-Activism Third Mondays. December is very close to the holiday break. The third Monday in January is MLK day, and in February it's President's day. We're going to take a break in December, and we'll announce plans for January and February in 2016 (hint: those plans may well have the word "Tuesday" in them). For now, many thanks to everybody for your talks, your questions and you support in 2015, and see you next year. d.

Love is a Weapon: Gandhi, Tolstoy, Kallenbach and nonviolence | The Brooklyn Institute for Social Research

by Romy Ilano

Inspiring course taught by my bro Adeola on Brooklyn . Reminds me of cool public school courses! https://thebrooklyninstitute.com/bisr_course/love-is-a-weapon-gandhi-tolsto… Love is a Weapon: Gandhi, Tolstoy, Kallenbach and nonviolence | The Brooklyn Institute for Social Research Before Gandhi became the Mahatma, he was Mohandas. Living in South Africa for over twenty years, the young lawyer-turned-activist campaigned for the rights of migrant workers from India, fighting alongside the British in wars against the Boers and the Zulu Kingdom. It was in these harshest of racist, imperialist battles that young Gandhi began to develop the thought and practice that would become his signature in later years. During these years in South Africa, Gandhi formed friendships with the Russian writer Leo Tolstoy and Prussian-Jewish architect, Hermann Kallenbach. Out of their unlikely friendship, Kallenbach and Gandhi founded the Tolstoy Farm, a retreat which acted as a laboratory for experimenting with techniques of nonviolence both as theory and as a practical way of living. In this course we look closely at Gandhi’s South Africa years―a time of both racial warfare, and great love and friendship―to understand the source of the philosophies and practices that would later inspire many currents of the civil rights movement in the United States. While many analyses of Gandhi and his thought focus on ideas and influences from Braminical and Jain sources, this course will focus on the South African moment and this archive in particular. Main texts for the course will include the collected writings of Gandhi, The South African Gandhi: Stretcher-bearer of Empire, by Desai & Vahed, Tolstoy’s The Kingdom of God is Within You, correspondence between Tolstoy and Gandhi, and Gandhi and Kallenbach. We will also read supplementary texts, which provided inspiration for Gandhi’s practice, such as Thoreau on civil disobedience, John Ruskin’s “Unto this Last,” and Plato’s Apology.

The "official" place to send card requests is the sysadmins list: sysadmins(a)lists.omnicommons.org https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/sysadmins But when talking to people in person it's often just easier to say "tell me" because then you don't have to spell another email address outloud. Sometimes in an attempt to make the conversation go faster I've told people to email keys(a)omnicommons.org or cards(a)omnicommons.org because we have an email system which catches everythingelse(a)omnicommons.org so they all go to the same list pretty much, and a lot of the same people read that list. But I guess that's the kind of thing which makes things more confusing in an attempt to be less confusing.
