I've just stumbled across this: https://cryptoseek.co/ It's a blockchain based treasure hunt around the bay area ... I thought it's really clever and was wondering if you guys knew about it, or the person(s) who made it?

a 3D printer filament 1.75mm / 1kg new roll for donation

by danarauz＠gmail.com

Hello Folks, By accident I bought one of this 3D printer filament, are Sudoroom 3D printer users interested on this?: [image: image.png] https://overture3d.com/products/overture-3d-filament-clear-petg-filament-1-… The roll still in the box as new, never used. Please let me know if interested, so I will bring it over when I get the chance, maybe next weekend. Or, if a Sudoer is in Marin and can bring it over Sudoroom, that would be great. We can meet in San Rafael. Thanks, Daniel

Fwd: Urgent! Do you know how to use FileMaker? Or know someone who might know how to use it?! (Re: Sending out Questionnaires)

by Ed Biow

The Alameda Green Party could use a hand. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FileMaker Looks like it runs on Windows & MacO$. It sort of runs in Wine: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=337 Greg, I'm forwarding this to the sudoroom list, maybe there are folks there who know FileMaker and would be willing to pitch in. I don't do Windohs, but if you can't find anyone else to do this maybe I could take a throw at helping a little if I can get the trial version of "share"ware version to run under Wine in Linux. https://www.claris.com/trial/ https://downloads.tomsguide.com/Pro-FileMaker,0301-2492.html Notify me if you can't find anybody actually competent. Ed -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Urgent! Do you know how to use FileMaker? Or know someone who might know how to use it?! (Re: Sending out Questionnaires) Date: Wed, 22 Jul 2020 03:06:24 +0000 (UTC) From: Greg Jan <gregjan4(a)yahoo.com> To: Green Party of Alameda County Council <countycouncil(a)lists.riseup.net> All, It's now going to be very difficult for the person who has sent out most of our Voter Guide questionnaires for previous elections, for many years now, to again do so this year. So we now _urgently need to find one (or more) other people to help out with this_! It's currently set up in FileMaker, so it would be best to find someone who knows how to use that program, if possible. (Or -- you can use another program, or even do it "manually", if you'd like to). The deadline for questionnaires to be written and submitted to be sent out is Monday, August 3rd, and the candidate filing deadline is Friday, August 7th. We should therefore be able to obtain the candidates' official contact info on approximately Tuesday. August 11th, so questionnaires can be sent out just as soon as we've loaded that data into the program. (And we might even load in some "unofficial" contact info prior to receiving the official contact info). We ask the candidates to RSVP that they've received the questionnaire, but usually only about half of them do that, so you'll then send out the questionnaire again to the remaining candidates, and then after that you'll send a phone-calling list to our volunteer to telephone the ones who still haven't RSVP'd. And finally, at the "end of the process", when the deadline to return the questionnaire passes (about 10 days after they're sent out), for those who haven't yet returned it, you'll email them a notice to please return it right away, and then after that, another phone list for our volunteer to telephone them to please return their questionnaire. So -- _please reply back right away if you can help out with this_! /Or if you know someone who might be able to help (and who is "trustworthy"), please do ask them! / (Or of course, if you have any questions, please do ask!). Thanks so much!, Greg 510-644-2293

Help build a face mask testing rig?

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Are you good at building electronic and mechanical gear? Want to help build a rig to test Covid-19 face masks and materials for filtration efficiency and breathability? We have a plan, and can contribute some funding to get the components. But we really *need someone to spearhead this project! If interested, please contact me at patrikd(a)gmail.com <patrikd(a)gmail.com>*, and we can sort out the logistics... People around the world are sewing DIY cloth masks, or buying N95 masks from dubious suppliers with little or no quality control. There is a big need for being able to test cloth materials and completed masks for filtration efficiency and breathability. But the official, professional testing gear costs around $90,000. The Smart Air folks in Beijing built this far more accessible testing rig, and used it to show that half of the N95 masks they sourced from different Chinese suppliers did not meet specs: https://smartairfilters.com/en/blog/testing-china-kn95-n95-masks-supplement… [image: Smart-Air-N95-mask-test-setup-wind-tunnel.jpg] The Met One GT-521 particle counter that Smart Air used in their setup costs around $2000 new. But Adafruit sells a $45 Arduino-compatible particle counter module <https://www.adafruit.com/product/4632> that can measure down to 0.3 micron. A DIY version of this rig can probably be built for around $100 total. (Alternatively, a used Met One GT-321 <https://www.ebay.com/itm/Metone-Portable-Particle-Counter-GT-321-Used-/1139…> particle counter costs around $600. Or a PerfectPrime AQ9600 <https://perfectprime.com/products/aq9600> particle counter only costs around $200 new) The plan would be to do some research on which fans and pressure sensors to use, order some materials, build a test rig, document the heck out of it so others can replicate it (e.g. on Instructables or Hackaday), and start testing mask materials - maybe in collaboration with Rachel at Ace Monster Toys and the other folks in the Bay Area PPE group that are sewing thousands of masks right now. Our biggest bottleneck right now is that we need someone to lead the actual building. I definitely want to be involved, can help with the research and design, and am willing to put in some of my own money to buy supplies. But I'm also still 100% Working From Home for my day job and don't have the bandwidth right now to take this on by myself. Help wanted! Patrik

FNB proposal

by Lesley Bell

Hey guys, +1 on renegade bio. Also, I haven't seen FNB's proposal on this list yet, so I'm attaching it. On Friday, July 3, 2020 3:55 PM, Helen Finkelstein <hefinkel(a)gmail.com> wrote: Food Not Bombs has gotten a small grant to improve our food storage capacity. We would like to use it to convert our storage room (next to the trash room) to a walk-in refrigerator. This would replace the refrigerators we are now using in the basement. It would require us to install some rat-proof storage, most likely in the basement. FNB would not use the entire refrigerator. We would be sharing it with Phat Beets, and potentially with others.

need a cellular modem or android help

by Jake

Hi community, I'm having to do a job where I install a linux machine on a vehicle, and I need to be able to connect to it over the cellular network. I have a Google Fi data SIM, which should work with most modern cellular devices that are unlocked. I have a Sierra Wireless MC7455 miniPCIe card and a USB adaptor, but it restarts every 43 seconds and I can't tell whether it's a hardware or software problem. I'm going to keep trying it, but it might be a dead end. I have a Nexus 6P cellphone, which is rooted, and which definitely works with my SIM. The screen is broken but i have a root login over adb, and I have an ssh client from an app i installed before the screen broke, but it doesn't give me a root login and su doesn't work from ssh (although i will keep trying) but with the android, I have an uphill battle because i have no idea how to curate the various processes that will take up data bandwidth, and since i'm paying per data for the SIM, i want to make sure that only my own important data gets sent through the cellular network. I want to install wireguard, which I understand might be a challenge, although I can probably just install wireguard on the downstream beaglebone black which will be running regular debian. If anyone wants to help me poke at the android operating system from root ssh (remotely by phone and screen-sharing of a session like tmux or screen) that would be greatly appreciated. I am also open to buying hardware if anyone has a USB cellular modem that you think is unlocked and will work out of the box with a Fi SIM and especially if you know how to get it to work from linux (something i've never done) Thanks everyone! -jake

Fwd: Proposal - Fiscally Sponsor renegade.bio's 'Test the People' Project

by Jenny Ryan

Up for consensus at next Omni Delegate's meeting is fiscally-sponsoring renegade.bio's free public COVID-19 testing. Input welcome! Jenny Ryan *Nonprofit Bookkeeping and Technology Consulting* 315.292.4656 | jennyryan.net ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Jenny Ryan <jenny(a)jennyryan.net> Date: Thu, Jul 2, 2020 at 11:51 PM Subject: Proposal - Fiscally Sponsor renegade.bio's 'Test the People' Project To: <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org> Discussed initially at tonight's 7/2/2020 Delegate's Meeting: Full proposal with amendments at: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/13cJJh1HiQK5m8PC-diO7-D_jBjNudpRD?us… 2 July 2020 Name of Project: Test the People Address: 5700 Martin Luther King Jr Way, Suite 1531 Phone Number: 415.338.9306 Email Address: jenny(a)renegade.bio Website: https://testthepeople.org Legal organization form of Project: For-Profit Public Benefit Corporation Describe the proposed project. renegade.bio is a Queer-owned and -operated Public Benefit Corporation. Founded in response to the pandemic, renegade.bio provides COVID-19 testing to underserved communities in the San Francisco Bay Area and New York City. This past Sunday, renegade.bio launched our first free public COVID-19 testing event at #PrideIsARiot (see TestThePeople.org) <https://testthepeople.org>. - we collected over 250 samples and delivered results to patients within 24 hours. Unfortunately, we were unable to secure funding for these essential public health endeavors from any of the entities that should be funding them: SF Dept of Public Health, Alameda County Dept of Public Health, nor California CDPH. There are those who want to donate to support our efforts, but as a Public Benefit Corporation (see Appendix A <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hp58xQozEFYNA_0D-R35OLTjpXc7LbIi/view?usp=…>) we're unable to accept donations. Previous donations have been forwarded to a sister organization, Vaugn's Wings of Hope, which supports patients with a terminal illness and COVID in the Midwest. In order to continue providing free COVID-19 testing to underserved communities, we do indeed need funding for rent, payroll, equipment, reagents, and PPE. As such, we propose a crowdfunding campaign in collaboration with grassroots organizations committed to the health and well-being of our most vulnerable. Because: #WeKeepUsSafe. How will the project promote Omni's charitable purposes? COVID-19 impacts Black, Brown, and Indigenous people the hardest, due in part to unequal access to testing and other healthcare. We believe that the only way we’ll be able to get through this pandemic is via free, widely-available, accurate, recurring, and accessible testing. Our mission with Test the People aligns with several of Omni’s core missions, including “to provide relief to the poor, distressed and underprivileged” as well as “carrying on scientific research in the public interest.” Attach a page showing the Project budget and the time period for the Project. To support Omni Commons during this difficult time, we are proposing the high end of administrative fees - 15% of donations received through this campaign, which we intend to keep rolling as we plan and popup more free public testing events for as long as testing is needed. Donations received through this campaign will go solely toward paying for expenses incurred directly in putting on free public testing events - a sample budget from our first popup event is attached as Appendix B <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oazUaND09-NoU8ra9qHLRprF_hesJMj8a54…> . Your organization’s history, mission, and goals. renegade.bio is a team of scientists, entrepreneurs, and community organizers, mobilizing in the public interest to provide rapid, cost-effective, end-to-end COVID-19 diagnostic testing for city and county public health. Longtime Omni organizers Jenny Ryan and Marc Juul are both full-time employees at renegade.bio, which was founded by Counter Culture Labs and Real Vegan Cheese member Craig Rouskey. Renegade.bio is accelerating humanity’s capacity to test for novel pathogens such as COVID-19. Our work empowers an overburdened public health system to respond swiftly to epidemiologic crises by delivering fast, reliable, cost-effective solutions for community-based triage. In collaboration with other labs, researchers, and organizations across the ecosystem of public health, renegade.bio is working day and night with a singular goal: to help make COVID-19 testing accessible to everyone in America, regardless of income—because we know it will take nothing less to end this pandemic. Your organization’s current programs, activities, and accomplishments. Since April, we have been conducting COVID-19 testing in NYC in our shared lab space at the New York Genome Center. Recently, we obtained our license to operate our Oakland lab, which is located at the Children’s Hospital ORI just ten blocks north of Omni Commons. This past Sunday, renegade.bio launched our first free public COVID-19 testing event at #PrideIsARiot (see TestThePeople.org) <https://testthepeople.org>. - we collected over 250 samples and had results delivered to patients within 24 hours. We are conducting follow-up testing this Sunday, July 5th at the same site in Dolores Park, for which 200 of our registrants have registered so as to participate in generating data on community spread as these important mass actions continue. We will have an additional 250 spots available for this Sunday, so pre-register at the link above and help keep your community safe! The geographic area and target population served. Our labs operate in New York City and Oakland, California - however, we can and do accept samples from across the country. For our public testing popups, we are planning to provide popup testing at actions and in areas where testing is unavailable, inaccessible, or overloaded. Our first popup testing at #PrideIsARiot specifically aimed to serve Queer, Trans, Black, Brown and Indigenous People of Color. We hope to bring our next popup site to areas of East Oakland where testing is not currently widely available. Estimate the number of people to be served. Our capacity is 1,000 samples a day, so we hope to serve at least that many per month. However, since a single positive case can infect potentially hundreds of people, it’s impossible to quantify exactly how many people would be positively impacted by our testing. The roles and responsibilities of staff, volunteers, and the board specific to this grant request. Staff: - Community Outreach - research on communities and geographic areas in need of testing; outreach to potential community partners; - Marketing - manage crowdfunding campaign and social media; creation of multi-lingual marketing materials; - Operations - identifying accessible sites for sample collections; budgeting; site-based operational logistics; - Sample Collection - Samples are safely collected at mobile sites by Bay Area PLS, one of renegade.bio’s partner organizations; - IT - Ensuring the security and privacy of patient data in accordance with HIPAA - renegade.bio’s IT team manages the patient data portal, in which requests for patient samples are made by a requisitioning physician, and the LIMS (laboratory inventory management system), which manages the flow of individual samples from collection to results. Patient registration and results reporting are managed by Primary, our partner. - Clinical Lab Scientists - process samples and analyze results in our labs. Volunteers are welcome and assist in greeting patients, ensuring the safe and hygienic flow of traffic at the testing site, and registering patients in our secure portal provided by Primary. Describe your criteria for success. What do you realistically want to happen as a result of your activities? renegade.bio would like to continue testing the community in open and accessible ways. Success is defined by testing underrepresented communities, nationwide. From Fruitvale to Immokalee, to the Navajo Nation, making testing available to at-risk, underserved communities is in our DNA. Success is defined by actual tests performed, and terminal success is achieved through a decrease in positivity rates in at-risk populations. Preventing outbreaks, protecting our communities, and delivering access to healthcare to folks from all walks of life is our mission. How will you measure changes? Changes in public health information, positivity rates, are based on physical healthcare data. Our website tracks overall statistics for a given action, and we work to make this data available to communities that need it. Facilitating knowledge during a pandemic, in which people do not have access to their ‘status’ means we can help communities build a safer foundation for a better future. Reports summarizing activities, including income and expenses for Test the People, can be furnished for Omni Commons upon request. Who will be involved in evaluating this work? Our results are reported to the state of California and patients’ County of residence as required by law. Our SARS-CoV-2 test is FDA-approved, and samples are processed in our CLIA-certified lab using positive and negative controls. What will you do with the results of your evaluation? How will it be used to affect the Project? For community transparency, we will post testing statistics and summary results on TestThePeople.org, including totals for negative and positive tests and demographic categories. These totals will not include any protected or personal health information. We are also required by law to share these totals with the state of California. Provide copies of your governing documents, roster of officers, and a complete and filed IRS Form SS-4, showing the Project's separate existence as an organization. - Form SS-4 - see Appendix A <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hp58xQozEFYNA_0D-R35OLTjpXc7LbIi/view?usp=…> - Governing Documents and Roster of Officers - See Appendix C <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fabnxemby9-LrSOqZhj77IJAhfLcb0kE/view?usp=…> Provide a list of the Project's choice of funding sources to be approached and the text of all fundraising materials. - IndieGoGo rolling crowdfunding campaign pitch text to be sent when completed, and prior to campaign launch - see TestThePeople.org <http://testthepeople.org> to get a sense of our messaging; - Potential grants as opportunities arise.

Evil magnifying glass lamps

by Marc Juul

I was randomly in sudo room today when I noticed smoke rising from the main tables. This was caused by one of those adjustable magnifying glass lamps which was focusing the sun from the overhead windows onto some plastic bags. Given that the overhead windows are not going away I think we should ban these types of lamps from sudo room. I have given the evil lamp away to a good home where hopefully it can be rehabilitated of its pyromaniac ways. -- marc/juul

iOS Shortcut Blurs Faces

by ...Anka

Does anyone know anything about iOS Shortcut Blurs Faces, an app that was developed by Noah Conk, a San Francisco-based software developer? Sounds like a great tool, my question tho is whether the app itself saves the photo and whether they could release it when subpoenad. also, once you think about it, it would be a great tool for FBI to have database of pictures that need to be blurred. anyway, anyone knows anything about the dude? -- Anka https://epikurewicz.wixsite.com/anka

recruiting for HOPE

by Mitch Altman

Hey All, I'm one of the organizers of a large, awesome conference that happens every two years: the HOPE conference (Hackers On Planet Earth). It's normally in New York City, but this year thousands of people will be attending totally online. 25-July through 2-August https://www.hope.net/ Would you or anyone you know like to give a talk or workshop or performance (or something else you think is cool?) for HOPE. It can be live, or pre-recorded, or a combination. It can be about one of your projects, ideas, musical pieces, art pieces, or about anything else you are excited about and would like to share. No presentation experience is necessary. And the project or topic doesn't need to be revolutionary. The only requirements are that you think it is awesome, and you'd like to share it. The deadline for submissions is Friday 28-June. I'm happy to answer any questions. Cheers, Mitch p.s. please pardon my cross-posting
