Hardware and softWEAR* Hacking Tuesday is tonight

by Jake

Hi everyone, You're getting this email either because 1) you're on the sudoroom discuss email list, or 2) because I BCC'd you directly. Tonight I'll be hosting Sudoroom for those who want to come hack on whatever, in person, or through telepresence (see the last link in this email) ALSO NOW FEATURING: SoftWEAR hacking too: most Tuesday evenings the sewing area at Omni Commons (in the basement) is also active so bring your fabric and textile projects and technical repairs; we've got heavy duty and serger sewing machines available. You're also welcome to bring your own machine to have it checked out and tuned up for tip-top operation or to just sew alongside others. in the past few weeks, we've had about 5-15 people over the course of the evening, not including remote participants who logged in through telepresence Here it is on the sudoroom page: https://sudoroom.org/events/categories/sudo-room-events/ that says 7PM but I try to be there earlier. if you get to the door (at the corner of 48th and shattuck) and you can't get in, call me or someone else who's there to let you in! Email me if you don't have my phone number. Actually a great way to get our attention is to join the video chat link at the end of this email! We don't always hear the doorbell and I don't answer it anyway! You should get on this sudoroom discuss mailinglist! click here: https://sudoroom.org/lists/postorius/lists/sudo-discuss.sudoroom.org/ and you should donate monthly to sudoroom, monthly, by signing up here: https://sudoroom.org/humans and if you want to make a one-time donation, you can go here: https://sudoroom.org/donate if you can't make it in person: join the jitsi videochat with the room, and chat with each other as well as a giant TV screen/speakerphone on the wall: https://meet.waag.org/turtlesturtlesturtles (don't worry if you're the only one in the "room", others will join eventually, and if the camera is pointed at the floor, just yell until someone comes and talks to you and then ask them to aim it back up into the room) see you soon! -jake

Bathroom near SudoRoom is 🤢

by Juliana A

Think some man peed on the floor, it stinks really bad rn. How does Omni proceed about cleaning that bathroom? Is it SudoRoom responsibility? That would be a good timing for what Romy proposed, pay for a professional cleaner. -- julianaferreira(a)gmail.com she/her

Thursdays coding nights - art + stable diffusion?

by romy＠snowyla.com

Hey I had fun at sudoroom hardware hack night Here's he updated blog post on our "collaboration" with stable diffusion https://sudoroom.org/stable-diffusion-artist-jam/ It seems to get people so excited! Maybe if people could come along, bring their paintbrushes and jam alongside the stable diffusion prompts it would be a really fun event! The idea of collaborating with the AI to make art, and also automate some stuff like music (until we get a musician to join our group) was very appealing. We could treat the AI as a sort of jazz group band member, and we can bounce our flesh meat ideas off of it.

Willing to help pay for a professional cleaner

by Romy Ilano

I am a Sudo member willing to help pay for a professional cleaner I don’t have time to clean other peoples junk and clutter. While I will help clean the days I do go, usually what happens is one person ends up doing most of the work and it’s not very effective. Also women tend to clean more than men for some reason. End result of members cleaning g is more wasted energy and effort and no cleaning by the people who cause the mess Sent from my iPhone

Gear to donate?

by J Clark

Hi all I have an older MendelMax 3D printer that has all parts but was damaged in a move. It should be easy to put back together with another 3D printer to create a few broken pieces. Also have a handful of VR headsets (also older but still in new boxes). Is there a home for these things at Sudo Room? Thanks. JudiC

seeking talented node coder for sudoroom infrastructure software

by Jake

looking for someone good at node to help maintain a project that sudoroom and CCL both depend on! first step will be updating dependancies so that it can run on a modern Debian installation - the project hasn't been maintained so this is a bit of work. A lot of people have volunteered for this over the years but nobody has actually followed through - are you the one to get it done? Here's the repo, let me know if you think you can do it! https://github.com/sudoroom/sudo-humans -jake

I won’t be at tonight’s party, but I hope others will!

by Andrew R Gross

Hi everyone, I’m traveling tonight, so I won’t be hosting a Wednesday party. I’ve also been unusually busy this last month, and haven’t been active in updating the calendar or sending out a summary of events for the month (or sending this email in a timely manner). There’s a lot going on, though, so if anyone is interested in hosting our monthly meeting or our weekly Wednesday parties or really anything else, let me know! Coordinating a reliable and organized group of active volunteers is an ongoing process and there’s never been a better time to find new ways to be a part of that! I’ll be back next Weds and hosting a game of a solarpunk tabletop rpg! That’s on Wednesday, April 19th and 26th at 8. Email me if you want to play! Cheers, Andy -- *Andrew R Gross, (he/him)* 412.657.5332 - shrad.org <http://www.shrad.org>

Extra keyboard etc

by Romy Ilano

Hey Juliana my office closed down and I have a great fancy extra Logitech keyboards that I can donate. I also have some extra paper cups and plates that I don’t think will add to the clutter Could we please put up a wiki page on these efforts? If there’s no one I’ll make one. It’s too hard to keep track of everything over email and reply to the threads 🧵 Sent from my iPhone

We need keybords/mouses! Do you have a spare one?

by Juliana A

I was talking to Jonathan Cadle and we're working on having accessible computers for those who dont have one/cant bring it to sudo room. They are working on creating "communal stations", which would be desktop computers plugged ins, with some basic linux os and ready for use by anyone. But we dont have keyboard / mouses enough. Posting here first to see if anyone has spare ones. Or brainstorm where we could get donations. I'll think/ask around and post my findings here. I think rn we have one communal station working. It would be nice to have a couple! -- julianaferreira(a)gmail.com she/her

[omni-consensus] Basement room proposal for Pro Arts (fwd)

by Jake

Hi Sudoroom people, tonight in the Delegates meeting (without quorum) we checked in on this proposal. Sudoroom people should look into delegates meeting notes and find out about all the exciting things we talk about at these meetings. As your delegate, it's my task to communicate the collective desire of the sudoroom membership back to the delegates' meetings, so lets have meetings and talk about delegates issues so that I can do that without having to make it up on the fly. I am also totally down to train other members to be a sudoroom delegate! It's 1-2 hours per meeting, 1st and 3rd thursdays at 7PM, online (you can attend from anywhere you want) regarding the proposal below, Sarah is part of Pro Arts which was operating in Oscar Grant Plaza downtown until recently when the City raised the rent, but since their mission is very aligned with that of Omni, Sarah has suggested this collaboration. I think it's great. -jake ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 26 Mar 2023 16:17:21 -0700 From: Sarah Lockhart <sarah.ee.el(a)gmail.com> Cc: consensus <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org>, Subject: Re: [omni-consensus] Basement room proposal for Pro Arts Pro Arts would basically help promote the media lab to its community of artists. It would definitely be collaborative, rather than taking it over! I, personally, would be willing to contend with the removal of the "wall of crates" in the collaborative spirit.
