Hi Sudoers: Erica from Oakland has signed up for tonight's Software and Hardware Hack Night with these two items: 1 Shop vac Craftsman CMXEVBE17250 It stopped working. I think it worked too hard to pull air through a clogged filter. 2 Small air purifier Germguardian AC4100 It smelled and then stopped working. I think the off-brand filter I bought didn’t let enough air through. Please give Erica a warm Sudorom / Omni Commons welcome; we typically have many drop-ins who don't register and just show up. In general you can check on preregistered items on this master Google Sheet, scroll to the bottom to see the Sudoroom registrations: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14lNfR1scJ53z3UUWgPSR8V4fdN063md6QfB… *✓ *Can someone who arrives early put the Fixit Clinic sandwich sign outside? *✓ *Can someone make sure the sandwich sign gets back inside about 11PM? See you later alligators, -Peter

So what are you hacking on this week?

by Romy Ilano

I have decided to focus on doing hacker projects at SudoRoom, and I hope to have a weekly email thread on what you have accomplished this week. - Moi, I've focused a lot on Augmented Reality lately. Still thinking about creative ways to involve light projection projects and augmented reality with the new headsets. - I'll have more time to hack once my job interviews are over. What have you done this week? == About priorities == Me, I realized that I spent a lot of time socializing, doing social media, and even running meetups and classes, but that's not really what I'm made to do. Leading classes, doing administrative work, posting photos on social media... that's not my main focus. I'm made to hack and be creative! So all of my involvement in SudoRoom is strictly around doing cool, creative hacking projects. ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Free film screening "Israelism" at Omni on 3/31 5pm to 9pm

by Z Silver Zahn

Free film screening at Omni on 3/31 5pm to 9pm Trailer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bondvm3hvGM 5:00 doors open 5:30-7 screening 7:00-9 optional facilitated social space address - 4799 Shattuck Ave. Oakland CA. RSVP with this link -------> RSVP LINK <https://partiful.com/e/LXDxBLiXBp8gsG7eVMAt?fbclid=IwAR2NA7IRRujeWYJ_-ykRbf…> This is a documentary about Zionism, and how the ongoing colonization and genocide of Palestinian people is whitewashed and sold to young American Jews. It exposes the brainwashing, the army recruitment, and predatory tactics such as youth groups, propaganda campaigns, and Birthright Israel. It also highlights the growing movement of anti-Zionist Jews opposing Israel’s colonial project and standing in solidarity with Palestinians. After the movie, we will hold an optional facilitated social space for people to process, learn, and have deeper conversations about the topic. Our goal is to collectively unlearn Zionist ideas and biases, to reflect on our various relationships to Israeli fascism, and to hopefully better prepare ourselves to take action in the movement for a free Palestine. People of all backgrounds encouraged to attend! You don’t need to be Jewish, SWANA or anything else to unlearn Zionism. It has touched all our lives. RSVP with this link -------> RSVP LINK <https://partiful.com/e/LXDxBLiXBp8gsG7eVMAt?fbclid=IwAR2NA7IRRujeWYJ_-ykRbf…> [image: Documentary screening “Isarelism” (2).png] [image: Documentary screening “Isarelism” (1).png]

Sudoroom Meeting/Party tonight

by Jake

meeting tonight! It will be fun and then there will be cake! -jake ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 6 Mar 2024 14:57:28 -0800 (PST) From: Jake <jake(a)spaz.org> To: sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org Subject: Sudoroom Meeting/Party tonight Hi everyone! We didn't have very good attendance at the last meeting, and I can understand why - meetings can be annoying, boring, or even unpleasantly dramatic. Nobody wants that! Things are better these days, and we have the potential for Sudoroom and Omni to grow into even better things than they ever have before. But we need to meet up and talk about things, and encourage each other to participate in whatever ways we can. Just showing up to the meeting is really helping! A lot of people came last night to Hardware Hacking Tuesday, and it was fun. If we could get half that many people to show up to meetings, it would make a huge difference in the energy of the space. Cleaning up, organizing, and even making things or collaborating on things, or playing with the synthesizer, are all options before and after the meeting, and to an extent even during the meeting! So if you have a chance, please show up at Sudoroom meetings, whether in-person or virtually. This is how we build community and keep the project going. Tonight at 7PM!

Re: [sudo-info] Trippy LED glasses project

by Jake

Hi Dylan, yes we have a bunch of Trip glasses! Like as reviewed here: https://the-gadgeteer.com/2009/11/07/trip-glasses-review/ here is the original page about them: https://web.archive.org/web/20160309183257/http://cornfieldelectronics.com/… they originally run on a coin-cell battery but because they were manufactured with counterfeit CPUs, they don't properly shut off and then the battery gets drained. So they need to be powered with other batteries, such as a pair of AA batteries in an enclosure with an on/off switch. I can help you fix them up! How many pairs do you want? I'll be there Tuesday night at around 7:30 and can meet you there -jake On Mon, 11 Mar 2024, Dylan Earp wrote: > Hi there! > > My housemate and I are doing a DIY sensorium for our kooky commune this > Saturday night.

The Last Repair Shop (2024 Oscar-Nominated Documentary Short)

by Peter Mui

“I think a lot of people see a broken thing and they just think it’s broken. It could be anything… …But when we see a broken thing, we think, Oh, with a little something here and a little something there, we can fix the part that’s broken and make things whole again. It’s difficult work but no matter what, you do whatever it takes because It is one of the best things that humans do.” Bravo!

[omni-consensus] Proposal for Expansion of Rental Space at Sacred Makers Arts Collective) (fwd)

by Jake

Dear Sudoroom, we are going to be asked to agree to this proposal being made by the Media Lab people downstairs, to expand in the proposed ways and pay more rent. please read about this and prepare for discussion at the next sudoroom meeting -jake ---------- forwarded message from consensus list -------------- Helloooo Omni, Attached, you will find a new proposal outlining our plans for Sacred Makers Arts Collective to expand our rental space into the basement. In recent months, our team has dedicated significant effort to cleaning and organizing the space, clearing away accumulated items to activate the area effectively. Currently, we pay $800 per month for the sewing zone and screen print zone. With our expansion plans, we aim to introduce a looming zone and a jewelry-making zone, utilizing the proposed spots as indicated in the attached layout. Additionally, we seek one lockable room to secure valuable equipment such as computers, considering the current open layout of the media lab. The enclosed office space adjacent to the village love room aligns perfectly with our requirements, offering the ideal setting for our operations. In light of these developments, we propose an increased monthly rental rate of $1200, effective from March. We kindly request your feedback and any necessary support regarding this proposal. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any concerns or require further clarification. *Below is current rental agreement of $800 a month* [image: SMAC current rental agreement.PNG] *SMAC Proposed Expansion for $1200 a month* [image: SMAC rental proposal .png]
