Help! any coders out there know how to get data from SudoRoom's calendar
out as a Rest API?
https://sudoroom.org/calendar/
Please email me.
It seems like it's using a Wordpress plugin called
All-in-One Event Calendar by Timely
http://support.time.ly/support/
I'm doing some research but if anyone has gone down this path before (and
especially if you'd ike to collaborate!!!!!) please email me > romy (at)

Hi Eddan and Matt-
Happy New Year!
Attached please find the 1/2014 Invoice for The Sudo Room. As per the terms
of the lease, there is a 3% rent increase effective this month (we decided
to wait until January instead of doing it in December). The new rent is
$1545 a month.
We hope to attend your event next Friday. If I don't see you before then,
hope to see you then!

But we have a functioning document projector that may suit your needs. It's in a black bag on the documentation cart.

thanks everyone!
I'm going to drop by SudoRoom this afternoon to drop off some cardboard backing paper for the event, and look at what we have.

do we have a overhead projector, old school style, with transparencies that we can write on with markers?I seem to recall that we had one.
I'd like to use this to do a live comic book / cartoon session during the Year of the Snake event January 3rd.

I'm going to go to SudoRoom on another day, not Saturday for a January 3
art making event
I'm planning on borrowing the overhead projector from Noisebridge, with
their permission.
Does anyone know anyone willing to be a performer?
Does anyone have any art supplies? Would it be possible for people to leave
art supplies in a donation box by the front of SudoRoom?
There is a big roll of paper somewhere downstairs in the building. I'm
wondering--is this needed? Would George let us use this?

30c3 from Hamburg Germany is being live streamed from multiple feeds to
Noisebridge. Would be great to see some sudo folks out and have some more
hands on hardware and software hacking thru the weekend.
The live talks are running until around 3p, then will be doin more hacking
with sifteo cubes, soldering and code.
Schedule:
https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Fahrplan
Please spread the word to other hackers and spaces in the bay.

Hi,
Would you like to see a combination co-working space and spa in Oakland at
The Omni? Come to the first Hacker Spa Collective meeting tomorrow at
6:00pm in the common room. Here's some more info about the idea:
Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/hackerspacollective/
Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/382439568568178/
Riseup List: https://lists.riseup.net/www/info/hacker-spa-collective
Hacker Spa will be a combination spa and co-working space. We will provide
a quiet, warm, relaxing place to chill and work as well as offer massage
therapy, tea, and hot tubs.
I'm imagining the space to have no or just a few desks. People would mainly
work sitting on couches or comfy pillows and bean bags. Or maybe work in
the hot tub via rented water resistant laptops.
I've had this idea in my head for a little over a year. I've mentioned it
to a couple of people who love it, but the timing was never right to make
it actually happen. Well, as some of you know there is a space in the
Temescal Neighborhood of Oakland that is being looked at as becoming a
community center owned by a collective of collectives called The Omni,
http://prezi.com/fbhw5lnpkyo1/the-omni/
The top floor of this building has an area with 3 - 4 "bedrooms" and a
laundry room with a shower and a hot tub. I think that this area would be a
great place to make the Hacker Spa happen.
The organization would be co owned by everyone working there, so for
example if you wanted to set up a massage table you would pay dues to help
pay rent and expenses and keep any other money you make as well as get paid
dividends if we make a profit. Same with anyone who helps with promotion,
administration, etc. The major goal would be to pay a rent on a portion of
The Omni with this project.

Hi everyone,
Tomorrow (and every Sat.) from 2-5PM at Sudo Room <http://sudoroom.org> we'll
be doing "Today We Learned <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Today_We_Learned>,"
weekly, open, co-learning.
What do we do at "Today We Learned"? We bring the things that we're
learning, learn together, and share what we're working on (we set up a
projector for anyone to share any projects that they'd like to share).
This blog post<https://sudoroom.org/today-we-learned-what-do-we-do-at-weekly-open-co-learn…>I
wrote has some more examples of what we do.
See you tomorrow!

Regarding the ongoing exploration of potentially relocating to the
old Omni, does anyone know folk who work at or are otherwise close to
people at either the Parkway Theatre or the East Bay Depot for Creative
Reuse, who I could talk to for a few minutes regarding their
previous respective attempts to move into the Omni..?
Part of the fact-finding mission regarding what (other) obstacles may have
prevented them from moving into that space -
Any contacts or help in this regard would be much appreciated - feel free
to email me directly / offlist
Many thanks!

hey guys - i'm planning a post oakland art murmur year of the snake
exhibition / collaborative art making night.
this will be january 3, 2014 after the art murmur, so art murmur refugees
and caome to sudoroom, make art and be merry
there will be projections - would like some help - and live drawing.
I would like to make this as decentralized as possible so it isn't just a
bunch of people staring at one guy drawing or one DJ...
and i'd like to involve art and music from surrounding collectives as well.
Let's talk about this.

Stencil Art in SudoRoom
SudoRoom isn’t just about technology – it’s also about art!
On Christmas Eve the wild creative animals of SudoRoom left their marks. As
a nature photographer i was able to catch remnants of their outbursts.
I heard there’s a stencil party in January 2014.
Bring your own dresses, t-shirts, helmets, over the shoulder boulder
holders, bicycles, goggles of boxes, and more… and let the wacky SudoRoom
animals “spray” their creations wherever!
Stay tuned to this blog for more news.

PEOPLE.
Though I would like to support their local business, I am sick of LMI's
ultra slow Sonic connection! :[ And I don't want to sell my soul to
Comcast. Webpass has mixed reviews. Etc., etc. Where do I go? help!!!!! I
just want to dust off poor old neglected Transmission and watch some
thought-provoking films! D:
This all said, I'd like to get an initial temperature check on the idea of
Sudo Room making official recommendations for IT services and publishing
those recommendations on our websites as a public service. Thoughts?
Salvē! Quid Agis Sudum,
Bollocks to: "no meeting because of Christmas." Give a stiff finger to
religion in hackerspaces by Kopimist amassing with me. I will be there to
meet, and even 30 mins before to lead some Yoga, and 30 mins after to lead
some Zen meditation (no experience necessary).
-notconfusing
Happy holidays from your friendly neighborhood hackerspace! If you are
wondering what material gifts Sudo needs right now, please consider:
* TALL LADDER - a member of our community graciously stored her ladder
here for a year and let us use it, but she's taken it back and now we
cannot reach many high places in our space.
* RICE COOKER - we had a couple of them but they were left on all
night and broken. Please help us feed ourselves - this thing pays for
itself!
* EXTENSION CORDS - we spend a lot of time futzing around and swapping
the same extension cords between the same 4-5 areas. It would be so
much more efficient if we had a few more long ones. It would also be
safer, since some of the cords floating around here don't have a third
grounding prong.
I'm sure there's other things! Please reply with more!
I replaced the rotary took shaft, but for some reason tube quick release bit holder keeps falling out of the mill? Can't figure out why the magnetic attachment is performing so weakly. Any thoughts?

Subject: [sudo-discuss] cnc mill
Date: Mon, Dec 23, 2013 08:49
Hi Jake,
Apologies I don't keep up with the list that frequently..
I'm out of town till the 5th but I can provide help via email for now just email me directly (off the list) so it goes right to my inbox.
Other than myself, Matt and Hol know the most about using the machine at this point.
My basic process:- First figure out how you're going to mount your stock material
- Load up cambam on the controller machine (unless you're writing gcode some other way) and set the stock properties to be the same size (in mm)- Set the top of stock surface to 0 with a stock offset as this makes aligning the machine coordinates easier
- Create or load the geometry you want to cut and create the toolpaths in cambam- Make sure to set cambam's gcode post-processor to "mach3"- Generate your toolpaths and export the gcode (nc files)
- Turn on the power to the CNC machine controller - the main power supply switch it is the hardest to reach and is on the back of the grey control box that the steppers are connected to. (Don't flip the little toggle switch on the same box though, I believe I have it taped to the on position because that disconnects the USB interface)
- Turn on power to the motors via the small black box on the side of the stand holding the controller computer.- Load up the CNC controller on the controller machine (Mach3) you shouldn't get any errors about not being able to talk to the machine, if you do you need to kill mach3 and check the USB connectivity including that toggle switch I mentioned previously.
- Finally with the machine on and Mach3 open, click the big flashing red safety button in the interface and then click REF ALL HOME to return the machine to its home position and reset it's machine coordinates
- To jog the machine the controls are the four arrow keys for the X/Y axis, and page up and page down for the Z axis. Always watch what you're doing and try not to clip any stock/mounts on the surface or you risk breaking the machine/bit etc
- Load the gcode for your part into mach3- Jog the machine to where <0,0,0> should be relative to your stock material (it should be the same origin as in cambam, I usually set this to the top, center of my part I'm cutting out, unless something else makes more sense for the work to be done)
- Once you align the origin for the part, zero out each axis in mach 3 and then click REGENERATE TOOLPATHS (if you don't do this the paths will exist in the coordinate system that was set up when you loaded the gcode) you need to do this any time you change the machines coordinates.
- If you need to change cutting bits you always need to re-zero the Z axis to the top surface, and then REGENERATE TOOLPATHS again.- Finally carefully jog around the boundaries of the part in mach 3 with plenty of height above the z axis to make sure you're not going to clip any mounting hardware while milling.
- Now you're ready to start milling.. I typically start at about 50-70% of the default feed rate. - Jog the CNC to roughly the origin again (slight higher than the part)- Put on some goggles if you want to get all up in there
- Start the spindle motor- Start the shop vac- Click run!- Hope everything doesn't explode
Good luck! I will try to set up some tutorial sessions in the new year.

Who does one contact about putting on events at SudoRoom? Alan
Rockefellar and I are interested in doing a mushroom ID and microscopy
workshop (which we've done in the past at Noisebridge) at SudoRoom at
some point after Xmas. Anywhere from the last week of December to the
second week of January.

Anyone want to participate in a read aloud of One Hundred Years of
Solitude?
Readers would alternate chapters over a couple days, although just
listeners are welcome.
The book is amazing! My schedule is open Tue and Wed.

Hey Jake,
No FTDI chip onboard for this one, just shown on the attachment to help lay out the connections which are 6-pin TTL serial. I'd like to keep everything through-hole for the first sudouino so it can work as a kit for newbies, and since I personally don't even know how to SMD solder, all the work done on it so far assumes no SMD components. I remember encouraging you a few weeks ago to take the lead for the sudouino 2 board around the ATMega32U4 as you've suggested using this chip previously. I think there are many cool things that can be done with it, so I look forward to seeing what you come up with to accompany that chip. In the meantime I'll continue work with the 328p as planned in order to bring this board online as soon as possible.
As far as connectors, I probably won't use any myself and I think we should sell some boards without them. I do agree with Steve on having an option for screw terminals for the switched loads, and either a screw terminal or a barrel jack for DC power input to the board. Whatever we think would be the most popular, I'll space the holes accordingly so the PCB design will accommodate either way. So it looks like we're up to 8+ different packages based on 3 different choices - 3,3V / 5V, kit / pre-assembled, bare holes / terminals.
What kind of connectors would the most people use for power in and out?
Cheers,
Hol
