- sudo-discuss - sudoroom.org

by David Keenan

Hi all, The sean I am speaking of is not the awesome sean of Spaz fame here, but the guy with dreads. A lot of us have known him from around, for a while. I've seen him crashing at various group houses and generally around since about 2006 going back to Apgar days, if anyone remembers that house. He says he is a sudoer, although I am not sure if he is or ain't. I suspect he ain't. I know Sean has cognitive difficulties, but after watching him dump about a pint of coffee on the ground and simply refuse to take any time to clean it up because he had 'other priorities', I am not happy to have him sharing our space. After Niki and I confronted him after much - much - haranguing, he eventually got a mop and cleaned it up, yelling at me about some total nonsequitur like how I should care more about Max from FNB being hurt than him cleaning up his own mess (as it happens I drove Max to hospital the other day right after that happened, but whatever.) This is the second time I have had to confront sean about something like this while I have barely been around this last month, but I suspect a lot people don't engage with him when stuff like that happens, so I'm guessing it probably happens frequently. Since he identifies with sudo, I would like to ask Sean to come to a Sudo meeting where he can can be informed as to the the general attitude of respect towards the space and people in it. If anyone can mention this to him or if you know his email? I would like to ask that Sean be unwelcome here until he does come to a sudo meeting. If he is not a sudoer but a guest of a sudoer, I would like to know who will be responsible for dude when he is here, cleaning up after him, etc. I do not think sean is a bad person, just totally in his own world really, and because of that self-centeredness, mental issues or not, he is just uncaring about how he treats others and his environment. I can't believe he expected others, on their hands and knees stocking the fridge full of donated food, to clean up his own mess that he basically pored right in front of them to kneel in. It's just not at all cool. David

Friday Filosophy: Software as Speech

by Eddan Katz

Dear Kopimists and the People who Love Them. For the featured Filo delicacy for Friday Filosophy, we will have potato burekas. I propose we talk about the difference between source code, object code, and executable code in regards to 1st Amendment protection. In other words, when is code speech and when is it a speech-act subject to less legal protection? Below is an excerpt from an essay by Lee Tien, a brilliant EFF attorney for more than a decade, on Software as Speech (2000). These two paragraphs are in the section: Viruses and other "dangerous" software. Of course, as always, we can talk about whatever else. Such as conscience and the unconscionable, perhaps. Lee Tien, Publishing Software as a Speech Act, Vol. 15 Berkeley Tech. Law Journal (2000) http://www.law.berkeley.edu/journals/btlj/articles/vol15/tien/tien.html > Let’s return to the virus hypothetical.192 The main concern lies in the fact that the software may be “diverted” toward unlawful purposes, regardless of the speaker’s intent. This concern is, however, not unique to software. It also applies to other types of information usable for mischief or harassment, whether highly technical like information about nuclear weapons, or utterly mundane like a person’s name, address or telephone number. > Even if the virus author merely posts the source code and fails to release it in active form, the issue remains whether the posting was done with an intent to communicate. If the author claims that she intended it to communicate, we would need to examine the context to decide the plausibility of that claim. There will often be a plausible claim. There is no question that people study viruses and other dangerous software in order to prevent or relieve harm.193 One way to control a virus is to publish its source code so that systems operators can disable or protect against it. Communicating a virus’ source code as part of such an effort qualifies as a speech act because the publisher intends to communicate how the virus works in a conventional way. In fact, one could imagine entire journals or Internet sites devoted to viruses and other dangerous software.194 When such publications aim to alert the world to these dangers, their intent is clearly communicative. sent from eddan.com

Recording Everything: Digital Storage as an Enabler of Authoritarian Governments (fwd)

by Jake

wow prescient, look at the date: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sat, 24 Dec 2011 11:42:41 -0600 From: Roger Baker Subject: Recording Everything: Digital Storage as an Enabler of Authoritarian Governments http://www.brookings.edu/~/media/Files/rc/papers/2011/1214_digital_storage_… Conclusions Declining storage costs will soon make it practical for authoritarian governments to create permanent digital archives of the data gathered from pervasive surveillance systems. In countries where there is no meaningful public debate on privacy, there is no reason to expect governments not to fully exploit the ability to build databases containing every phone conversation, location data for almost every person and vehicle, and video from every public space in an entire country. This will greatly expand the ability of repressive regimes to perform surveillance of opponents and to anticipate and react to unrest. In addition, the awareness among the populace of pervasive surveillance will reduce the willingness of people to engage in dissent. The coming era of ubiquitous surveillance in authoritarian countries has important implications for American foreign policy. Strategies for engaging with these countries will benefit from specific consideration of the presence, growth and increasing impact of these enormous digital databases. This will impact human rights, trade, export control, intellectual property security, and the operation of multinational businesses with in-country facilities, subsidiaries, or subcontractors. Finally, the use by authoritarian governments of systems that record everything in the complete absence of privacy considerations will lead to a long list of other unforeseen and generally negative consequences. Unfortunately, the residents of those countries, as well as the rest of us, will soon start to find out just what those consequences are

book: Low Power to the People

by Jake

this book is super awesome. it's about putting up FM radio stations around the country in the last ten years (and more) and the group of activists and former pirates that pushed for and won legislation to increase legal access to the FM radio band. it's an anthropological work mostly, and it has a lot of coverage of the gender gap and dynamics which relate closely to what we're doing in the hackerspace movement. -jake ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 9 Nov 2014 13:04:28 -0500 From: christina dunbar-hester <c.dunbarhester(a)gmail.com> To: Christina Dunbar-Hester <c.dunbarhester(a)gmail.com> Subject: announcing Low Power to the People Dear friends far and wide, Apologies for spam, but I'm pleased to announce that Low Power to the People, my book on radio activism, exists in the world... just out with MIT Press!!

sudodesk robot tools

by Ben Burke

I’ve symlinked 3 robot-related tools into /usr/local/bin on sudodesk. The new commands are motocommand, motomessage, and motodisk. They are under development and can break, but if you want to try them you should. Here’s how: 1. Get people away from the robot 2. Turn on the robot with the black rotatey-dial thing on the top left of the robot cabinet door. 3. Press the “REMOTE” button on the right side of the robot console. 4. On sudodesk, type the following (including quotes): motocommand “SVON 1” The robot will growl appropriately as the servos come on. 5. Now on sudodesk, type the following (including quotes): motocommand “START DEMO" Currently the robot job called DEMO is really slow and unimpressive. Maybe someone could make it wave around perilously… or play the marimba (gently)! We could make a converter that turns midi streams into robot motion. If you want less exciting stuff, try the above steps, but instead of step 4, type: motomessage “MUST KILL HUMANS” The robot will show up to 23 characters of your snarky input. I’m working on these remote mode tools here: https://github.com/glvnst/yasnac <https://github.com/glvnst/yasnac>

my transmitter design on the cover of a book

by Jake

look at the cover of this book (you can click on the image) http://mitpress.mit.edu/books/low-power-people the text in the back cover says: Jake designed this transmitter with the help of wizened elders, to provide a reliable and repairable communications device for noncapitalist communities around the world. At that time, cheap and effective transmitters from China were not yet available on eBay, found by searching for ST-15B in "consumer electronics". you'll notice that there are pictures of Mandela and Ghandi on there. The circuitboards were fabbed eight at a time, so we put a transparency over the whole thing with EIGHT different pairs of dead revolutionaries: Mandela and Ghandi Nina Simone and Rosa Parks Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. Rachel Corrie and Judi Bari Fidel Castro and Che Guevarra Emma Goldman and Mother Jones Ernesto Zapata and Ricardo Flores Magon Annie Oakley and Lyudmila Pavlichenko you might notice a pattern of dichotomy in rhetoric vs. direct action, that was accidental.

good news! the booksale proposal

by D. Scott Nanos

needs to be amended already :) just spoke with the owner of pizzaiolo (Charlie) and he's letting me sell books outside his restaurant whenever I want to (!), so location and permitting concerns are now moot! also, Charlie is *really* into the omni and wants to be a part of it in any way possible. He also owns boot & shoe and penrose... I'm sure he would love to do food/drinks for the upcoming omni fundraiser, so someone please let me know info and dates about that! He called us an "art movement", which I thought was pretty funny. I was stoned so I didn't correct him- plus it's not entirely untrue, although it's definitely an abbreviated way of thinking about what we're all doing. I figure his ideas about the omni will become richer thru participation :) anyways, my $1-$7 booksale has moved and is now in front of pizzaiolo tonight, a couple blocks from the omni. Stop by if you're free! let me loose for a pee break? xoxo Scott

Bookselling outside the omni

by D. Scott Nanos

PROPOSAL: to let Scott sell books outside/nearby the omni up to 2 days a week Dear OOC community, I am intending to start selling books outdoors and on the street, and I'm wondering if there's a way that I can somehow do it, two days a week, nearby or directly outside the omni. I really think this has the potential to be good for everyone! First, ways in which the OOC can benefit by this. I will make the finances of all sales public to the ooc, and would agree to either paying a nominal monthly fee (remember, this is going to be outside, perhaps between TAC and lanesplitters on 48th?), which would be sliding scale (ex: if i actually make any profit at all, the omni gets more $/month) or, preferably, 10% of (non-consignment) sales, which seems easier to me. This hopefully would also cover being able to store (2) boxes and my handtruck in the omni. The boxes would be likely be constant, but the handtruck would only be at the omni 1-2 nights a week max. Another way OOC members can benefit from this is through consignment. Both korl and Jenny have expressed interest in consigning some of their books for sale, and since my operation is so small, I think I could manage consigning with just about any core member of the ooc. The small size is a bit constrictive- I'll probably only have 100 books plus ephemera "on the shelves", and it will be completely curated, so I'll have to be really selective with consignment. BUT i'm really into this idea and hope that it will, in a small way, be able to financially help out members of the OOC who do so much unpaid labor for the omni. I already have multiple spreadsheets that i've been using to track consignments of my own books in local bookshops, as well as for TIL books i've been consigning to owl and company. It's been a couple months and i haven't let anything slip by, so i'm confident I could keep track of ooc members' books, should anyone want to consign! Also, this will totally help bring more people into the omni (and La Commune too)! I think, since I'll only have about 100 books at a given time, a lot of people won't find what they're looking for and will likely walk inside omni to browse la commune's shelves :) Being near the omni will help me out greatly. Since a lot of OOC members will be around, I would be able to go on quick bathroom breaks or grab more stock from my storage box, and be able to see all of you lovely people while "at work"! Plus, I'd get to spread the word about the omni to book-lovers and passersby, and occasionally play acoustic guitar while tending to the "shop", which would make my set-up even better. My hope is that, although this project won't really operate *inside* the building, that it could still serve as a model for other business type tenants/member collectives in the omni, one that is based on transparency, gratitude, and mutual aid. Other closing thoughts/concerns: should I contact the Temescal Arts Center and see if they'd be okay with me setting up in between them and lanesplitters a couple days a week? does anyone have that contact info? and, if I do sell books on the street and have it be loosely affiliated with the omni, would it at all pose any legal problems for us? Thanks and love, Scott ps no problem at all if it doesn't work out for this bookselling thing to be associated with omni- there's plenty of outdoor space all over oakland! that being said, I think it could be really great. <3 pps i'll be having a small $1-$5 booksale tomorrow night in temescal alley (49th and telegraph) from 6-9 pm tomorrow night! Come drop by if you're free!

education heads @ sudoroom - anyone reach out to Oakland Tech?

by Romy Ilano

Hey, are there any education heads at SudoRoom? has anyone at SudoRoom reached out to Oakland Tech? Don't they study electronics and mechanical stuff? Wouldn't hanging around the shop at SudoRoom be a cool way to augment the apprenticeship program and inject a little theroy and science magic? http://www.npr.org/2014/10/23/358238891/what-the-new-factory-worker-should-… ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
