- sudo-discuss - sudoroom.org

by Patrik D'haeseleer

So here's a mystery for all you techno-sleuths and scavenger hunt fans: I just discovered a wall-mounted, old school rotary phone, in a hidden location in the Omni trash room! I'm not going to reveal the exact location so as not to deprive you of the joy of discovering it yourself. * Does the phone still work? * What is it connected to? Hotline to the FBI for mob informers? * What might have been the history of that phone? Did the current trash room have a different use that might explain the need for a phone there? * Is there a link to the doorless room in the basement, or the zombie apocalypse emergency supply closet? Sooo many questions... Patrik

Membership/finances

by Juliana A

I asked this question some weeks ago, posting again here; is there doc we can see SudoRoom finances in general (how much $ in memberships/ donations, etc). Last time I checked humans.sudoroom.org it seems only members have access to finances. Is there anywhere else a non-member could check that info? I think it'd be interesting to have for transparency's sake. Either way, as I mentioned in my last msg, I'd like to apply for a membership, so let me know how to do that. -- julianaferreira(a)gmail.com

sudo-access list access and spam

by Jake

it seems that sudo-access is set to accept emails from non-members and is forwarding spam which is bad. https://sudoroom.org/lists/hyperkitty/list/access@sudoroom.org/2022/7/ Also I need to add someone to the list and i don't see how to do that. https://sudoroom.org/lists/postorius/lists/access.sudoroom.org/ help? -jake On Tue, 2 Aug 2022, Sean Greenslade wrote: > On Tue, Aug 02, 2022 at 07:53:46PM -0700, Jake via sudo-discuss wrote: >> got dammit, sorry everyone, i accidentally approved this fucking SPAM message >> to the list because I was trying to approve a different message and I didn't >> look closely enough. >> >> I don't understand why the spam was waiting to be approved, I thought I told >> the system to discard that message and mark it as spam. >> >> this is bad because now our mailinglist has sent out a spam and will get >> negative reputation points. >> >> -jake > > If it makes you feel any better, this is the hardest type of spam to > reliably trap.

new lockers available

by Jake

tonight we cut the locks off of the lockers, where the combinations had been lost. there are now about six lockers available on the East side of sudoroom, for members. We have combination locks available too! Please let me know if you want a lock. If you take a locker please consider increasing your monthly donation, actually just consider that anyway because we need more money [citation needed] -jake

Help me with wordpress

by steve＠bradytales.com

Hi! I'm Steve, a local wingnut/author, and friend of Jake who claims no knowledge of wordpress. I'm hoping someone can help me with my WordPress site, bradytales.com. As you can see, the basic list of blog posts is duplicated. I hope to find someone very familiar with the wordpress system who can make this go away. Any takers? Thanks!

Fwd: [sudo-info] German TV

by Andrew R Gross

Hey everyone! I almost missed this email because most of the messages received on it are spam, but it looks like a production company is interested in using the space as a location for an interview with former google engineer Blake Lemoine. You can see my response below. I can’t see any reason why we wouldn’t be able to accommodate this request. I also asked if they could check if Blake wanted to hang around and chat with members. If they decide to go forward I suggest that we request a voluntary donation in line with typical space rental fees. Is anyone else interested in possibly meeting with Blake? ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Ingolf Baur <ingolf.baur(a)gmx.de> Date: Wed, Jul 27, 2022 at 10:29 AM Subject: [sudo-info] German TV To: <info(a)sudoroom.org>, <sudo-discuss-owner(a)sudoroom.org> Hi there, we filmed at the counterculture lab a few years ago with Patrik and Josiah for German public broadcasting cultural TV 3sat ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xflXGdd_n6) and I liked it a lot at the time. Now we’re working on a documentary about the developments in AI. I’m trying to organize an interview with Google engineer Blake Lemoine. He’s the one who thinks Googles AI has become sentient. I’d like to do the interview via Skype while I am in Germany and he is in the US. Cameramen filming on both ends. Is there a chance for this interview to happen in your sudo-house in Oakland? It would just be two people: Blake and the camera operator. The date is set for next Tuesday morning, the 2nd of August at 10:30 am and won’t take longer than an hour. Thank you for considering!

Can anyone recommend a resin that I could use to replace a glass lampshade?

by Andrew R Gross

Hey everyone! I have an ornate lamp, where the lights are all inside glass flowers, and a few of them broke. I'd like to replace them by making a silicone mold of one of the intact ones and then casting it in resin. Making the mold seems straightforward, but I've never actually cast resin before, and I'm looking for advice on what resin to use. The bulbs are halogen bulbs, so they get fairly hot, and the lamps are pretty close. I'm guessing that if the resin can withstand 200 F they should be fine. Does anyone know whether this is feasible? Can anyone recommend a resin that is clearish and can withstand moderately high heat for long periods of time? Here are some pictures. They're not great, but they give you a sense of what I'm looking to replace: https://photos.app.goo.gl/cPeqyw9ZpQfBufwi9 -Andy *Andrew R Gross, (he/him)* 412.657.5332 - shrad.org <http://www.shrad.org>

So what is everyone doing this week?

by romy＠snowyla.com

I saw Juliana build a cool twitterbot!The women's programming night looks like it's going really well. Andrew has a cool resin sculpture. Would love to see it! Me, I met some cool people at SudoRoom during hardware hack night. we chatted about Blender and I got to see some other software for light projections, but I'm moving on to a phase where I can create my own 3D models, hopefully to print them out and also animate them. I also started on doing world building in Blender using historical artifacts. There are a lot of 3D scans of historical objects that you can download for free from SketchFab https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/combination-padlock-756916ba62b7489294fc9c8… SketchFab has a post on all the open access eminent domain 3D models they have been putting up. https://sketchfab.com/blogs/community/sketchfab-launches-public-domain-dedi… I'm excited about NYC next week! I'm going to be hanging out with Mitch who's in town for the HOPE conference. For fundraising at SudoRoom - so Far I'm thinking the coworking idea, and the study space for UC Berkeley students sounds like a good run. I guess I should drop in on a meeting one of these days!

Blender is progressing nicely

by Romy Ilano

My blender tutorials are progressing nicely. It was worth it to invest the time in only doing blender tutorials - all the other activity has been a big bunch of distractions. The nice thing is that I’m also up to the point of doing video editing and animations so that’s the big block I had to jump into light projections and augmented reality 🤔 I guess tonight I’ll continue my blender tutorials and erect a “hey we’re learning blender” Project page on SudoRoom !

The New Parkway Theater

by Andrew R Gross

Do you guys all know about the new Parkway theater (www.thenewparkway.com)? I went there yesterday to see everything everywhere all at once and was absolutely blown away. The movie was mine blowing, but also the theater is like nothing I’ve ever seen before. I also noticed that they have a partnership with food not bombs, which suggests that we have some major community overlap. I wanted to make sure that everyone here knows about this place because I think everyone here would love it, and also because they seem to be executing a vision that shares similarities to Omni commons, and executing it really successfully. I’d like to know if anyone from Omni commons is in communication with whoever runs this theater. If not, we should set up a meeting asap, because if they have any advice for us it might help save the building. -- *Andrew R Gross, (he/him)* 412.657.5332 - shrad.org <http://www.shrad.org>

What’s your win this month?

by Romy Ilano

Some good vibes: I am focusing a lot more on blender this month. It’s fun and it’s open source! I wish I had hunkered down and focused on blender many years ago, especially since I was into 3D printing but it’s never too late I got to the animation and key frames section. I’m embarrassed I had been using a more expensive pay program to do animation previously but now I’m doing it on open source software It’s cool, I’m pretty sure I would never have learned this much if I had organized a meetup or taught a class tbh. People in lecture classes don’t really follow through and accomplish stuff so if I do have a blender event it will be a workshop But what works for you might be the opposite !
