sudoers!
With your support, the plan to mesh the world is progressing rapidly.
If you are interested in becoming part of the mesh by hosting a mesh node
in the near future, then please add yourself to the node map:
http://meshmap.sudoroom.org/
Hosting a node involves:
1. Letting us mount a router on your roof, or on the side of your house,
or pointing out your window (they come in different sizes, but even the big
ones are pretty small and unobtrusive) and run a single cable (choice of
colors!) to your existing modem / access point / router.
2. Paying for the routers power usage. They use only 8 watts of power,
which is less than 5.9 kilowatt-hours a month, which at an average bay area
price of 22.8 cents each comes to about $1.35 a month.
3. Optionally paying for the router! $25 to $110 depending on distance to
nearest other mesh node.
4. Optionally donating e.g. 10% internet bandwidth to the mesh if you
already have an internet connection (strongly encouraged!).
Add yourseeeelf!!!:

hey all,
a few of us went to a screening this evening of edible city, a documentary
about the food justice movement in the bay area (and what was particularly
awesome is that the filmmakers and lots of the people in the movie were at
the screening and answered questions!).
the whole movie is available here:

Is it beer? Yes. Subiir batch 4, the best brew as of yet. Hoppy and
well-carbonated IPA. It pops.
Is it in the fridge? Yes. The drawer (mid-left, with a big sign) is now the
place to get your beer-fix.
Is it free? *No!* It's not free to make, and the hacker-brewers are not in
a position to gift it. Please put in $2 per bottle in the little box in the
beer-drawer (you will see it). It covers our expenses, and any amount
beyond that, a) to invest in equipment for brewing larger batches and b) to
sudoroom.
Make a great day. Beerified.

hi everyone,
we had a totally different kind of meeting tonight! it was simultaneous
with dinner, with all of us loosely sitting and/or standing around the
table, with informal facilitation, a rarely consulted agenda with a final
check over the agenda to fill in notes and see if we missed any items.
unfortunately, we still didn't have the financials included in the meeting,
and a few things had not been followed up on from last time, but that's
okay. we're getting better ;)
so here are the rough rough notes!:

- Friends, Jamie and Alex, from Rock Paper Scissors are interested in
cataloguing and digitizing their zine library.
- We discussed best practices and ideas and agreed that we would like to
share a single cataloguing system if there is a good open solution.
- Bill showed off the holdout's zine cataloguing tool on drupal. Its
called Permazine and will be launching soon.
- RPS is happy to have it hosted on our servers. They want to do more
stuff together!
- Their top requirements are:
- End user experience for catalog entry and search
- Multi concurrent entry
- Folksonomy support
- Sudo would ideally want an open source solution, but understand that's
tough for cataloging software.
- Jamie will: Contact the creator of permazine to see if that will suit
their needs.
- Max will: see if oclc will still give us wssl for free, and otherwise
look at whether
- SELC was interested in potentially renting space. SELC is moving into
LOLspace 2-3 days a week and are subsidizing all of LOLspace's rent!
- JC suggested idea of startup incubator in the office behind the
reception area. He is looking for partners. He has a business and is
currently discussing this issue with his employees.
- Jenny happened to meet a masseuse from Santa Cruz who may be
interested in an office at 2141.

Hol, will you be around later today? I have a lot of ideas for use of
the space and would like to collaborate with you on it. I haven't been
around the past couple weeks because of transportation issues (lost my
car) but will try my best to make it there today.
In particular, Romy and I bought that 5-shelf heavy duty set for the
closet. It is meant to be the first of several such units (this one
being only a test). My vision is that after we assemble a few of those
in the far corner of the closet (to the left of the radio room) all
the crap can go on those, and then in the newly cleared space we can
stack those grey metal boxes as lockers - the ones I originally wanted
to bolt to the wall. All we need to do is replace the locks on those!
They are big but I figure people can share them for a flat rate per
box.
I'm less enthusiastic about having shelving out in the common area. I
think we should try to better use the vertical space in the closet and
let the common area be nice, clean working and meeting spaces.

i was not witness, GtwoG was: as i understand it a man was fiddling with
the keypad trying to get in, looked up and was hastened off by the camera
-- which G was happy was there to get his face --
--which it was not, as it had again been unplugged, because there are two
usb slots and three items that have to go in them, and I am told a USB hub
would lead to conflicts. so the keypad and RFID win, and we have no camera
over the keypad, which means ppl just get buzzed in OR the door gets
propped open.* which has to stop.*

makes alot more sense than pulling barstock around! glad to see we're moving forward on this with an ISS demo - i think the second prospective space mining company DSI pins their whole business model on 3D printing the parts close to the ore.

Hey everyone,
While I was in Maui I thought I would check out the only hacker/maker
space, so I caught up with Jerry Isdale of Maui Makers yesterday, and
helped assemble the B9creator 3d printer.
Maui Makers just lost their location, so I drove out to Haiku, where all
the gear is now. Haiku is close to the East side of the Island, and it's
more remote, rainy and generally beautiful like the rest of the island. In
Haiku, they had some really cool tools, like a laser cutter. I have a
decent picture of a cool LED backlit wood box that Tony and Jerry built
with a laser cutter.
It was actually really not too hard to do(although, I mostly just took
pictures). The directions are kind of like lego directions, you get pdfs
for different components, there are some written explanations with
pictures, and then a final assembly doc,...all and all, the design plans
were clear and straight-forward and all lego-like.
Unfortunately, I didn't get to see any printing, because the printing
solution didn't come with the printer. So, If you do get one of those
printers you need to order the printing solution. With the printing
solution, the whole set-up is about 1300 bucks. It's a bit on the pricey
side for a modest 3d printer, but it looks pretty high-quality when you
unpack everything. The parts were solid in my hand and it includes a
projector, so it doesn't seem overpriced.
Anyway, I'll send those images around when I get back... I might stay a bit
longer, but I haven't told my boss that yet ;) Heh, boss... what a weird
word. I don't think they have that out here... very mellow.
Cheers,
Rusty

paying someone $30 an evening for being the doorperson, is the only
acceptable alternative to having these two working. there has already been

Sudoer's plan b.
one more thing:

You guys may have heard about this group doing DIY gieger counters and
crowdsourcing their data collection to aggregate radiation levels in the
followup to the Fukushima Disaster.
They just reached 10,000,000 individual data points! Cool project!
http://blog.safecast.org/2013/06/over-10000000-data-points/
Is there a list discussing Sudo room projects only? I'd like to filter out all these kick starter and non profit projects by people outside of sudoroom

A few months ago I lost a bracelet, it had a black strap with small dark
stone in the center ( a black opal

talking about, or happened to have found said bracelet that would be
awesome.
