This is a pretty casual blog post but with permission from Juliane and the others. I’d like to start posting more peoples personal projects here if they are not on the blog
Thinking about maybe doing a today I learned which we used to do 10 years ago. The topics were pretty cool back then they range from Mads to Computer Science to stuff like cooking. I think I can’t remember.
Also, now that everything‘s opening up again it’s pretty cool I’m hanging out at the mechanics library in mannys in San Francisco mission there is so much stuff going on involved with a local community.
I’m just trying to think of ways to bring that stuff back to Sudoroom because I definitely do bring it but it’s all inside my head like I’m going to go see the SF opera folks talk about the stuff that they’re doing at the Mechanics’ library tomorrow night. Had to bring stuff like that into the Sudoroom like also a Mechanics’ library has a big chess club. Maybe they can do a chest and I’ll ballroom someday I’m not sure it’s like something like that would be like really cool I think.

I wanted to print stuff tonight on the paper printer (the 2D one) and there
used to be several, but there don't appear to be any now. Where'd they go?

is there something wrong with the DSL modem or the Dell server (not rackmount)
that's supposed to be serving non-monkeybrains internet?
and the jitsi telescreen is not working, perhaps it's not on the internet?

I am looking for the one with the DE9 RS232 serial plug AND a power connector
(USB i think?)

Hey everyone,
Tonight is a weekly party, but I just don't have the energy to host these
right now. If someone else does, that would be great.
We have a general meeting next Wednesday, May 3rd. I'll try to host it, but
I'd love to have someone else do it.
If you'd like to add anything to the agenda for today or next week, reply
below.

We didn't exactly have much of a meeting tonight, but progress was still made.
- We talked about what to do with the recent influx of Chromebooks that came in. Most of them currently cannot be used because the Fremont School District hasn't de-authorized them yet, so they're hard locked to those Google Accounts, and can't even be properly wiped. This may resolve itself soon, as we were told they would be deauthorized soon.
- Discussions about what OS we want to favor for the laptops we're giving away were also had. There's a tradeoff to be had between favoring stability/simplicity (e.g. Debian) or more frequently updated distros (e.g. Arch) which offer a wider variety of packages.
- I brought in some linux install CDs/DVDs, along with a a CD of rEFInd, as I noticed we didn't have any install media that just "belonged" to sudoroom, for anybody to use. I left them on the cart under the TV; please don't take them home, so that the next person who needs them can use them too.
- I also brought in a keyboard. Ideally I'd like for us to have a couple of "shop" keyboards that are kept relatively clean and accessible, so that we can use them whenever. Not sure of the best way to do this right now.
- I proposed an idea to draw new people to sudoroom by offering a "learn linux" program. I'm thinking we can take some of the older laptops/mac minis/whatevers, and show interested people how to build linux systems from a minimal install (i.e. week 1: basic terminal stuff; week 2: adding a display manager/xorg/window manager; etc.) The idea seemed well received, but I wanted to see who all would be interested in participating, and if anyone had ideas about how we could let people know about this. I was going to propose doing it on a couple of wednesdays a month, or Friday if those are open.
- It looks like two of the newer mac minis were found - these have HDMI ports, so they're easy enough to hook up to any monitor. Some folks wanted to keep OSX on them.

The serial numbers have been submitted to Fremont Unified School
District IT so the Chromebooks can be de-provisioned from Google
Enterprise Enrollment. After that they can have their write-protect
screws removed and any alternative OS (Linux-based, probably) can be
installed.
I'd love if Sudoroom would build out a practice to help students and
residents remove write protection, install an alternative OS, and
empower them to get the most out of that alternative OS.

Hi folks,
I'm working with an art student who's building a neat interactive
experience and needs to use one of these versions of the teensy. Do any of
you happen to have one laying around you're not using?
Thank you,

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
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.
