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?

*Be seeing you.*

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

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

Subject: [spaghettinight] You're invited to Hear from a Basque (Spain)
ecovillage researcher/blogger over tea tonight at PLACE
To: The Spaghetti Night mailing list <spaghettinight(a)tentacle.net>
Spaghettifolk, we've got a fun guy in town involved in international
sustainable communities (like your lovely group homes) and we're having him
over for tea tonight at a PLACE for Sustainable Living, the neighborhood
ecovillage near Alcatraz and San Pablo. We are hosting a
researcher/videoblogger from Northern Spain who is giving a talk tonight
about his explorations of sustainable community. Join *Ortzi Akizu* tonight
over tea in conversations about his travel to explore different sustainable
living models around the world. It would be a delight to see you there - he
almost made it to SpaghettiNight at Cooperative Roots last night, but the
East Bay Permaculture Guild meeting ran long, and he is eager to meet some
of you before he leaves town tomorrow. Come early for potluck, or later for
conversation and tea.
Optional RSVP via our East Bay Cohousing MeetUp group: http://
www.ebcoho.org/events/134540422/
P.S. If you've got any openings to fill, we've got lots of eager,
experienced community seekers on our East Bay Cohousing group and can help
facilitate introductions and connections, and/or list your open house
events, in more effective ways than the Craig's List overwhelm. I just
yesterday ran into a SpaghettiNighter from Milky Way Co-op who found some
folks from our list, and two others who we connected to Prudence Crandall
House.

Hi, Peter,
My mom works for the West Contra Costa County School District. The district
is decommissioning hardware and software for the Leapfrog Leap Pad system.
There are 30 non-working tablets. My mom suspects the styluses need
attention. She can show someone how to do this, but she doesn't have the
time to do it herself. These tablets and probably many more would then be
available (with accompanying hard- and software) for donation to an NGO or
other after-school program. The set-up just requires one Windows XP
computer per classroom.
Is this something Fixit Clinic could help with? We don't know who might
need this system, but my mom says it's a good learning methodology. Without
repair and a donation recipient, a few classrooms worth of stuff will
become e-waste.
Thanks for your consideration,
Jon Lowe

We have a bunch of AC/DC power adapters lying around,
and we could turn these into extra chargers for our
respective laptops and phones. Is anyone interested in
having a session on this? If so, I'll run it.
The session might go like this.
1. I explain the relevant stuff about electricity
(for at most 10 minutes).
2. We look up the electrical requirements of our devices.
3. We look for matching chargers.
4. If a charger supplies the right electricity but has the
wrong plugs, we cut off the plugs and exchange them.
We'd need these materials.
* Things you want to make adapters for
* Adapters that you're not using, to add to our pool
in Sudoroom
I can also bring some assorted plugs.
If you have a Mac laptop, you should acquire a broken
charger; the plugs seem to be proprietary.
After a long hiatus, the logo revision is back online and ready to be
discussed. I've attached a four page .pdf to review the latest iterations
based on the last feedback I received.
For those not familiar, we've been discussing this for several months now,
and have gone through a lot of different ideas. Prudently, most sudoers
have gravitated towards the logo sketches more similar to the current logo,
and here we are.
This Survey Monkey survey question
<http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Z9W5K3Y>applies to the Very Last Page
(4) of the attached presentation. Please
provide feedback.
