Hello,
The Fixit Clinic is going to do a TIL on August 24, and I have a few
questions:
- Will the common room be available for us to expand into if there are more
people than comfortably fit in the sudoroom?
- Is anyone with knowledge of the 3D printer planning to be there? At a
recent Fixit Clinic in Boulder, CO someone was able to fix a broken blender
by 3D printing a part "while you wait". I think that is incredibly cool,
and would hope that if an opportunity presented itself to do this here, it
would be fun, but I don't know anything about running the printer, the
modeling software, etc.
Thanks, and see you next Saturday.

At our last general meeting we had people mention they were very
uncomfortable with pitching their idea/project/innovation to a VC and those
alike, so I thought how could I help in that area!
Here it is guys
I host post show for the largest pitch event in Silicon Valley which is
called SF New Tech (sfnewtech.com)
The event is a monthly event where startups from across the world come to
launch officially in SF. Well launch or re launch or re introduce.
I wanted to personally invite a few Sudoers to come and observe and get
tips and inspiration from great startups. Network,meet friends, or lookf
for a job (people are always hiring)
This month you will hear Prezi, Fiverr, BitBalloon,SaasMax,Situation
Assesment Global,and Twibfy
The event is Wed Aug 21( so I will not be at the general meeting) and I
hate to steal people from it but it will be a great opportunity to look,
watch,observe,network,and meet people in Tech ,if thats your thing. Tickets
are 25, but I do have a guest list and I can get you in under #ThatTechGirl
for a smile.
So if you want to go for free let me know

Hello All,
I'm in need of some beta testers for my new Android app, RedZone.
RedZone is a Find My Phone type app with a geofencing twist that I've
been working on since Open Whisper System's Spring Break of Code event
earlier this year. Upon public release the app will be fully open
sourced and made available for free on Google Play without adds or any
of that other junk.
The application has be written to support all versions of Android 4.2.2
and higher. I've tested it extensively on the Nexus One, Nexus 4 and
Nexus 7 but now I need the help of others.
If interested please contact me, I hope to distribute beta APKs starting
tomorrow or soon after. If you know of anyone outside this list who
might also be interested please provide them with my email address as well.
Cheers,
-- rhodey
Hi,
We seem to have all of the tools for making ethernet cables but
none of the materials (plugs and cable). Did I maybe miss them?
Alternatively, does anyone have a 30-foot ethernet cable I
could have/buy/barter/&c.? The ones in the ethernet cable bin
are all too short.

Hi though,
If you have a minute, could you try to figure out how to embed vimeo videos
in our wiki? As far as I know, the particular video here is not on youtube
or anywhere else:
https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Art_and_Revolution#Sustainability_as_Art
Let's get these wiki spaces known and populated! Languages, materials
hacks, life hacks, intel, w/e!
Eddie Che
-- or, Death Guild, anyone?
if it wasn't for the do-or-do-not-there-is-no-try rule, i would be
announcing my intention to go out dancing this evening, with an eye to
perhaps thereby facilitating a ride for myself and a longtime close friend
of mine, who has never been.
should you or anyone you know be attending via automotive transport the
which may have room still for two, and should you want to contribute to my
spiritual health and aesthetic re-invigoration, please contact.
note to self: perhaps "death guild" ought to be featured in the subject
line, no?

Non-profit auto repair facility needs help
I am an auto mechanic by trade and have been in the industry for over
14 years. I recently moved to Oakland and I am interested in starting a
non-profit auto repair facility or some other form of community based
auto repair. I want to do my part to help the people of oakland and the
community as a whole to get their cars fixed and running properly. This
will help people get and stay employed. It will reduce carbon emission
by keeping cars running properly and more efficiently. And it will
reduce pollution by guaranteeing the proper disposal of toxic chemicals
that may otherwise be disposed of in other ways.
I am in the very beginning of the process and reaching out to any and
everybody that is willing to help, give advice, and/or be involved. I
have all or at least most of the automotive knowledge to run the
business, but I am NOT a business guy. The concept of writing a business
plan is like asking me to design a suspension bridge. It seems
overwhelming and daunting.
I envision several different aspects of this business. I would like to
have a sliding scale that would cater to low income customers. I want to
be a community resource for knowledge about the auto repair industry and
possibly even have classes to teach people about their cars and how to
fix them. I envision hiring young people and teaching them a skill so
that they can become successful. Or possibly hiring felons or other
"non-hirable" members of the community. I also think all profit should
go into a fund to help supplement the lower income customers.
Please help. If you think you have information or know how to get the
ball rolling or want to be apart of the project, please contact me.
Together, let's do our part to get people to work and keep food on
their tables. This city needs us. And either way, who doesn't need an
honest mechanic? I mean really!
Thank you!!!

Hey,
So It's come to my attention that quite a few people from Sudo Room are
heading to Burning Man. So...
Who's going? and where are you camping?
I'll be at 9:00 plaza at the Barber Ella camp (We give hair cuts :-) )

Hey folks,
The Cryptoparty / Digital Security Workshop scheduled for this Sunday has
been postponed until *Saturday, August 31st*. That Saturday is the last day
of The Public School's weeklong Summer School. The general theme of that
day will be Information, so we'll start the day with a Cryptoparty - with
hands-on workshops to assist you in generating key signatures, using
encrypted and off-the-record chat, and other tools such as Tor and
Redphone. We'll wrap up the day with lightning talks ranging from the
Electronic Frontier Foundation's work in fighting for civil liberties,
discussions of why privacy and security matter, and the Oakland mesh
network project.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
Jenny

Last couple of times I've come by there's been a little bronze dog propping

tenants?
P.S. sudo room is open.

Max,
A couple of links from having this problem a few months ago. Bottom line: you may need a driver to make your Mac's USB appear to be a serial port. I had it working on Mac 10.6.8.
I can confirm that my USB port has been configured to be a serial port with this software:

In case you need it:

When you get this figured out, would you help get this info on the wiki please?

Would anyone be interested in showing up to help people who come by get

I can be there, but I'm only a little above beginner when it comes to
seting this stuff up my self.
Thanks,
Andrew
Does anyone have access to a co-location room that I could film in? Or,
alternatively, does anyone care if I borrow a bunch of the rack servers
from sudo for like a day in the next couple of weeks? I am shooting a
scene for a film, and will need it.
Server co-lo would be sweet.
Let me know,
Rusty Lindgren
