Hey All,
Some Sudoers went over to
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/off/3734928687.html today to check it out.
There are three spaces available. I took some pictures of the 1100 sqft
space that's $1500.
I don't have pictures of the other spaces. I know other people do.
Take a look. The other spaces are larger and have more spaces for shop
like activities and are 4500 sqft for $4000 (no elevator), and a street
facing ground floor retail space at 4000 sqft for $5000.
A big plus is that one of the spaces was being used by the landlord to fix
macs and donate them to non profits and schools. So yeah, good landlord :-)

Dear All,
I just thought you might be interested in a fun upcoming event, the East
Bay Vegan drinks night on Thursday May 18th at Olde Depot in Jack London! I
thought it might be a great cross pollination between Sudo room, East Bay
DIY Bio and the East Bay Veg community (which is also diverse).
At the moment there are 20 people confirmed on Facebook and about 12
maybes, come, join us, hang out whether you're vegan, veg, veg curious or
just want to come and have a beer and hang out :)
-
-
Thursday, May 16,
2013<https://www.facebook.com/events/calendar/2013/May/16>
-
6:30pm until 8:30pm
-
Whether you're vegetarian, vegan, or just experimenting with meat-free
eating, come meet others in the community for happy hour drinks!
We'll be at the new vegan bar Olde Depot, right down the street from
Souley Vegan, one of Oakland's best.
people, tomorrow is the last day of april. you know what that means: the
day after tomorrow, we will need to once again pay our rent in order to
continue to stay at our current address.
you have a number of ways to contribute:
1) online (via wepay): https://sudoroom.org/
2) online (via gittip): https://www.gittip.com/sudoroom/
3) in person (anytime): please drop cash or checks into the clear plastic
box by the door that goes to the elevator
4) in person (at meetings): bring cash or checks to wed. meetings.
see you soon,
marina
This place seems way too large for any of us individually, but could make
for a good place for a hackerspace collective, if a couple groups want to
band together.
Not close to BART, but with a good bus connection (including the free Emery
Go-Round shuttle).

All,
just saw this poking about:
http://www.ccarey.com/resources/propertysearch/DetailPageIndustrialLease.as…
7000 sq ft, Emeryville, ~$7030/month
A bit bigger than we need, but it has tremendous curb appeal in terms of a
space that would attract attention. Not that that's a good thing.
Thoughts?

Hi Sudoers,
I've received some inquiries about when we could do a second batch of sudo shirts. Herein I will lay the groundwork for such shirts to happen.
First of all, today I was struck with a very simple sudo shirt design, which combines a few ideals that I've developed from my time screen printing: Using a colored shirt, minimizing ink use through tactful shirt color choice, creating focus from the graphical elements instead of the text. Also since this design would be a one-screen design, it would be ideal for doing an in-house screen printing workshop using water based inks (another environmentally superior decision), not to mention the possibility of keeping the screen on location for impromptu sudo prints.
This design is not actually the original sudo-button .svg that goes around. I modified this one (attached) to enhance the lines, fix a couple corner-jag issues, and to tweak some of the sides to be more parallel.
I'm pretty sure the edges are not all "perfectly parallel" here, and if we have any illustrator gurus on the list, that might be a cool thing to do. That said, this is a more precise sudo logo than we've had before, let me know if the subtle imperfections were cherished and I can revert this design. (Btw- What's the constellation depicted? Any?)
I and other sudo members have volunteered to donate the labor involved in producing these shirts, which would bring the price down to "cost", which will be $4.55 per shirt (American Apparel runs more expensive, but has some good-labor practices, so unless there's another preferred manufacturer, it seems the morally superior choice for now).
I donated the previous batch of shirts, but I'm currently donating what I can per month in dollars, so I'd like the Sudo Room's help to buy the blank shirts. If resold at $20 each, there would be a 339% profit on each shirt sold, which is probably a good thing to ask, since it doesn't require change, and it's a fundraising shirt anyway.
So: How's support for this design, and at $4.55/shirt, how many would we like Sudo Room to stock up on?
When the time to print comes around, I'll organize the volunteer effort, thanks for all the offers I've received!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for agreeing to host Bike Smut!! Below are
the details that Bike Smut co-organizer Reverend Phil and I are working on.
Your help and input is much appreciated, so please speak up! With your
help, this event will be that much more spectacular!
1) MONEY/TICKETS
Due in part to the popularity of the show, and to keep the show going, Bike
Smut has historically been a paid-entry event. They would like to offer to
split door sales with Sudo Room 50/50--yay money!! (And just a note on
this: I don't know if this is a no-brainer, but this would not effect your
ability to access Sudo Room. Please be fair though if you do plan to "sneak
in" and donate a little mulah if you are able to.)
2) AUDIO
Does anyone here on the list have access to a good audio system for movie
screenings? This will be an ongoing question as we host Fabulous Friday
Films. I have a carshare and can offer to pick up, babysit and drop off
your sound system.
3) SEATING
Hooray for all our couches, chairs and pews! We will need help with
arrangement and expanding our seating options.
4) LIGHTING
The show includes live performances, and said performances will need good
lighting. Overhead lighting is not flattering, and a few lamps might be all
we need. Let's try setting this up in advance.
5) PROMOTION
It's a strange beast but absolutely critical to the show. This is the last
screening of their current tour, "Turning Trixxx" in The Bay and possibly
ever. Let's make sure people feel luck they got a seat at all! Please make
a call out to your networks far and wide!
Sudo Room promotion: Bike Smut people will be giving us a shout-out. If you
have any other suggestions for promoting our space, please speak up!
6) MERCH/DRINKS/SUNDRIES
We will need to claim one of the common room tables (5 sq feet or more) to
sell underwear, stickers, and such.
Beverages: Let's talk off-list at the next meeting (May 1st) regarding
availability/donations/etc.
Food: Pretzels! Popcorn! If there is something snacky you like making,
consider bringing it for donations/sale!
And finally,
"I'm glad we have got some mustached men on working the door. Ushers who
can make the guests comfortable are very welcome." --Reverend Phil
Hey all,
In the interests of sharing the common space with The Public School
folks and not double-booking events, and in the absence of a web-based
solution, the Public School has posted a physical calendar in the common
room. If an event is expected to be large enough that it needs to
reserve the common room and can not meet in sudoroom proper (I'm
thinking Oakland Nights Live, for instance), please pen in your event
for that day as well as the time it's starting/ending, so that other
groups that use the common space know that the space is reserved.
If your event is only going to take up half the common room, but is
still too large for sudoroom, please write it in anyway and make a note
(e.g. "1/2 common room needed") and then if the Public School has a
similar situation we can work it out on a case-by-case basis. I predict
this to be an edge-case though.
Sudodarity forever!
Bill

Hey!
It looks like we'll be having our next NymRights meetup this Thursday,
7pm at sudo room*, near the 19th st BART stop. I'm also going to try
to arrange for some kind of call-in conference phone number so that
people who are not in Oakland can join and contribute as well.
Main topics for the meeting:
* What is this IDESG thing coming up?
* Discussion on our existing "nym" use cases
* Positive ways to educate people on nyms
We'll also make something resembling meeting notes and post it on
NymRights.org for people who cannot make it but are interested in
participating.
Cheers,
aestetix

A friend of mine who sews semi-professionally mentioned that an
exceptionally beefy sewing machine is available at the estate sale place by
Jack London / 4th near Broadway (this one:
http://www.somethingtosellabout.com/home.html) for $175 as of a few days
ago.
She'd split the cost with a few of us if we could put it in sudo room and
make it available. I'd also split the cost with 3-4+ people.
I won't be able to go down to see if it's still there, gather more detailed
info, and plan transportation to sudo room if appropriate until Saturday at
the earliest.
With or without me, and asap, would anyone like to get involved as a
co-investor, detective, or sewing machine transport specialist?

one thing i learned from sitting in the biohacking group was that
(biohacking) patrick established a rule that they would have a "working"
meeting, not a socializing meeting, with more emphasis on managing time
wisely and getting things done.
i thought that was a cool approach.
i personally like talking a lot at meetings, socializing but i realize my
extroverted style isn't respectful of other styles
perhaps we could experiment, do some "working" get things done quickly
meetings with a minimum on longer speeches?
we had some people who took the opportunity to make a few things out of
clay during our meeting!
[image: Inline image 1][image: Inline image 2]
i think they liked it :)
Hi All,
There has been a lot of talking about working and general meetings and how
we can have fun and get down to business (have our cake and eat it too) at
the Sudo Meetings. I would like to propose that we tackle this by simply
splitting the meeting up in to two time blocks with different purposes.
I wont be able to make it to the next few meetings, which is why I
haven't proposed this sooner. But if anyone who is facilitating thinks this
is a good idea and wants to follow it go ahead!
Here's the proposal:
6:00 - 7:30 : Community Potluck + General Meeting (Introductions, Updates,
and Announcements)
7:30 - 9:00 : Working Meeting (Proposals, Conflict Resolutions,
Overflow Discussions)
Thoughts?

I was thinking that it might be useful to have some of the Sudo Room projects have their own office. So all the documents, mailing list archives, and sections of the wiki relevant to that group can be made easily accessible. It could also be used to join in people remotely for the weekly meetings. Each room could have information that could be made available at different layers of permission according to role - so someone can come into a meeting that is a public meeting, but can't mess around with the etherpad or other trolling behavior.

Who is this rule for? Do you appreciate the actual problem? He
literally has a habit of going up to people using the bathroom and
yelling at them through the door.
I don't want SR to move either.
I spoke with Steve, the CL poster, and he said 3:30 would be best to meet
up and show the space.
Morten, Andrew, Ray, David, and anyone else who would like to check it out,
let's meet at 3:30 at 1924 Franklin (in front of the CoCo Cafe)!

We have those four giant light-box-storage things cluttering up the
space. A few days ago I started preparing to hang them from the rear
wall. I got sort of derailed by drama and uncertainty, but I'm making
up my mind to continue acting like this space IS sudoroom until
further notice. That said, I need a few strong people to help me
finish the job. Anybody up for it? How about tomorrow night
before/during/after Hacky Happer Hour? Mostly you will need to hold
each one in place while I get the first screw in, and possibly also
the second.
i resurrect the proposal for a day hacking in a museum. it could be node,
it could be python...
i'm inspired because i saw a lot of node people doing hacking in the museum
in sf. i'd like for us to do it too!
==> problem - museums do cost money. I have a membership and can get people
in +1 ... maybe we can go on a free day... but those are crowded?
==> benefits - there's so muchs tuff like the history section of the
oakland museum. i could see how this dovetails nicely into the oakland wiki
group... how could you NOT be influenced by all the cool stuff going on
there?
==> potential solution to money issues - we could buy group tickets or talk
to the museum to get a special deal for our starving collective???

I like meetings but I realized that if many people do not like meetings,
then it is partly our fault. yes ,meetings have to get done, but time is
precious.
i would like to help out with making meetings and cleaning less boring. ray
+ max have helped out a lot with bringing food, spicing things up!
for cleaning of natural decay--i propose we theme these as well.
we are theming our hacker happy hour for costume. i am hosting and will
wear a personally humiliating cosplay fanime outfit... so why not do this
for natural decay? anyone up for a french maid costume natural decay hour?
