Hello all,
I won't be at/hosting js night tonight because it is the holidays and I'm
guessing not many people will be there. Just a heads up. For anyone who is
thinking of going without door access, there will usually be someone around
to let you in, but I can't guarantee it.
Best,
Lesley

Subject: [dorkbotsf-blabber] Gift economy: Firmament LEDs
To: Dorkbot-Blabber <dorkbotsf-blabber(a)googlegroups.com>
Hi,
So last spring/summer I had to replace all of Firmament's LED modules. Now
I have 20,000 or so modules to give away. Most of them work, but I can't
guarantee which ones will and for how long, since they were all treated
badly by the Houston rains.
Each bag contains 435 or 465 modules in strings. The strings are attached
to the bird netting that made up Firmament's old canopy. There are JST
connectors at both ends of most of the strings, and power taps at the end of
every string. All wiring is 18ga.
Each module contains a WS2801 chip and 3 5050 RGB LEDs. They run on 12VDC.
You'll need a PixelPusher or other LED controller to make them do anything.
First come, first served!
Christopher

Greetings omninoms!
For those not yet aware, Omni intends to launch a crowdfunding campaign on
Sunday to raise funds toward renovating the commercial kitchen in the
basement!
*if you get the gist, you can proceed directly to the kitchen wiki page
<https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Kitchen> and/or peruse the CAMPAIGN ACTION
KIT
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YRIoL5jlmgxZMBdLQibWNn39gD7wSLx-EgCBbdM…>*
We need *ALL HANDS ON DECK *to help spread the word. In particular:
- reach out directly to folks in your networks who you think would
donate, and ask them if they could contribute when the campaign launches.
pre-pledges help ensure successful campaigns. here's some sample text
you can use <https://peoplesopen.net/pad/p/kitchen-pre-ask> (tx be to
julian!)
- do you have any press contacts you could tap? we are drafting a press
release
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T3xUefmfxntMbin02Nf--R4BsQslth2SZ7Vl7NA…>
to be published on Monday after our soft 'community launch' and have zilch
lined up so far
- can you or your group offer (and follow through on) a perk/reward for
certain donation levels? get in touch!
- when we launch on sunday, help spread the word by sharing, retweeting,
and sending to any and all relevant mailing lists!
- do you have a spare hour or two to help with social media, press
outreach, door-to-door flyering, graphic design (eg, a facebook cover image
people could use?), making a short video or blog post, organizing an event,
etc? join the kitchen working group mailing list
<https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/kitchen> and/or attend the next
meeting - Wednesdays at 6pm in the Basement Library!
Check out the wiki page at omnicommons.org/kitchen for more info on the
project, including the awesome campaign video
<https://omnicommons.org/omnikitchen.mp4> produced largely by the
ever-rad-Anka (and starring some of the most OG Food Not Bombs organizers!).
-- more info:---
Given the holiday season, the extensive burdens on every activist's energy
these days, and a host of other complexities and circumstances, we've
decided to break up the campaign into 3 phases.
For this first phase, our goal is to raise $15,000 - which will enable us
to pull the permits, demo the walls for expansion of the area, and get most
if not all of our plumbing work done.
The subsequent two phases will have goals of $20K each - though by the end
of this first campaign we hope to have a solid lead or two on a significant
grant or donor.
There are many dangling threads and the kitchen crew could definitely use
more support to carry this off. Please do lend a hand, however which way
you can!

Following is an amendex draft of the the Sin Fronteras Cafe proposal

Hi everyone,
Here is the updated cafe proposal. Some things have been modified based
upon the feedback received so far, most of which has been positive.
If you have any feedback from your collectives, friendly amendments,
questions, etc. it would be really helpful to have them before the meeting
on Thursday.
This will be the 3rd meeting at which the Cafe has been discussed, and the
second since the proposal was submitted. Collectives all should have
discussed it, and I hope we can consense on some version of it on Thursday
so we can sign a lease beginning January 1st. If you are going to be the
delegate on Thursday, please come prepared with your collective's response.
Laura
*Updated proposal to build and open a coffee bar, Cooperative Cafe Sin
Fronteras, at Omni Commons*
* Dear Omni Commons, Sin Fronteras Coffee is a worker-owned co-op created
by Rocio Cervantes, and Jose Rodriguez from Akat Cafe
<http://akatcafekalli.com>, a community space and sustainable cafe, and
Michelle Gutierrez and Abad Leyva. Michelle is a therapist/photographer
working for people of color in East Oakland. Abad is an independent
filmmaker and founder of Encinal Oakland, a community organization fighting
stigma and discrimination through multimedia projects. We propose to become
an Omni Commons member collective and open a coffee/limited food location
which will serve the North Oakland community and Omni Commons. Sin
Fronteras Coffee will offer fair trade Zapatista coffee from Chiapas, and
work directly with the farmers. We also see the need in our communities,
where people struggle balancing a busy and poor life, for the cafe to be a
model of dignified work at a living wage. Once established, Sin Fronteras
Coffee will give to members of disenfranchised communities the opportunity
to learn to run a sustainable, autonomous cooperative business. Our
commitment to horizontal growth means that we will support and promote
others to open similar small, worker-owned co-ops. Our proposal for Omni
Commons: 1. Collective Structure. Worker owned co-op, new owners by
invitation only. 1. Community Benefit. Cultural and political education and
social events; support for events at the Omni with Cafe service; once we
are established, youth internships. In the future, financial and business
training to co-op members and employees. 1. Schedule. Proposed hours of
operation (subject to change) 7:30am-5:30pm Mon-Fri and cafe service for
events at Omni collectives with anticipation. We will establish a system
to request cafe service during events. 1. Security. Conversation needed re.
protection of equipment and safety after cafe hours. We will position
equipment with safety in mind. We will consider increased security and
protection of equipment, if needed, in a way that decoratively and
artistically contributes to the space. 1. Source of Goods. We aim to
serve organic and just trade coffee from Zapatista cooperatives in Chiapas,
Mexico. All produce, pastries and dairy will be sourced through local
suppliers 1. Community Market. Opportunities for Omni Commons collectives
and other POC, Women Owned, Queer Owned businesses to showcase their
products. 1. Lease details. 1. Parties: The
Omni Commons (“Lessor”)
Sin Fronteras
Coffee (“Lessee”) 2. Premises: Omni Commons
3. Term:
2 years with 2 2-year options to renew.
4. Commencement: January 1, 2018 5. Use:
Coffee/Limited Food 6. Base Rent: $800 a
month plus approximately $250 utilities (garbage, PG&E, internet, water
based on what other collectives pay). This rate gives 24/7 access to the
building for cafe operations; and the ability to hold events in the
Entrance Hall at the time the lease is signed. Free use of the Ballroom for
occasional large events will be available at the end of the rental
abatement period (see below). Lessee will pay property taxes levied on the
Lessor by Alameda County due to its non-charitable status. Rent will
increase by 3% annually. 7. Insurance: Lessee shall obtain general
commercial liability insurance with liability limits not less than
$1,000,000/$2,000,000 aggregate, a Waiver of Subrogation, and naming
Lessor (Omni Commons) as an additionally insured. 8. Start-up Costs &
Build Out: We estimate the build-out and improvement costs at approx
$8,000. Omni Commons will abate our monthly rent for 6 months to help Sin
Fronteras manage this initial investment. Sin Fronteras will begin paying
for utilities from the time of lease signing. 9. Improvements: Lessee
shall provide the following improvements, using building standard finishes,
subject to a mutually acceptable space plan, and all applicable permits: -
Coffee Bar - Plumbing and Electrical upgrades - Appropriate tile and
floor finishing - Painting 10. Storage: Extra storage will be included,
approximately 10 sq ft in basement . 11. Parking: Only street parking.
13. Security Deposit:
Upon lease execution, Lessee shall provide Lessor with a security deposit
equivalent to the last month’s rent. 14. Financials: Lessee will be
responsible for funding of leasehold improvements. Some useful links: Akat

Hi Sudoers, please review this proposal to turn the entrance hall into
a cafe. These are the same folks who run Akat Cafe in Eastlake - I
strongly encourage folks to go check it out, as you'll get a good idea
of what to expect. I think this will be very good for us.

Delegates,
Here is the proposal for the cafe in the entrance hall made by the
folks who attended the delegates meeting about a month ago. Please
read it, share it with your collective members, and discuss it at your
meetings. At the delegates meeting tonight we agree that it would be a
good idea for Jose, Abad, Michelle, and Rocio to attend collective
meetings to introduce themselves and answer questions. If you would
like to invite them to your collective meeting, please let me know.
Thanks

Next week I plan on switching Omni's network to a new router. Like I
said I would do ages ago. It should hopefully go quickly, but just in
case, please plan on the internet being broken for a bit. Thanks!
yeah i agree sell
although if i were smart i would have some to sell and i don't :(

Greetings privacy hackers, Noisebridgers, and Sudo Roomers,
At this Saturday privacy hackathon we have a number of special things
happening!
Lisa Rein + New Projects
Firstly, we have a special guest, Lisa Rein (Co-Founder, Creative Commons &
Aaron Swartz Day, Chelsea Manning's Archivist), who will be speaking
briefly at 5pm. She will be announcing the continuation of Aaron Swartz
Day projects through Cypherpunks Write Code(!!), and *introducing 2 new,
awesome projects she would love our help with*. One is an RSS Revival
Project <https://www.aaronswartzday.org/rss-news-reader-revival/> (which
has both research and development components). The other is a Metadata Blow
Out Tool <https://www.aaronswartzday.org/metadata-blowout-tool/> to enable
folks up wipe out the location data on their phone images before uploading
them to social media (so your location can't be so easily tracked by the
photo's easy-to-grab geolocation data). Both will of course be open source.
If you are interested in avoiding *real* fake news or defending user
privacy, you will want to check them out! *Tech stack: TBD.*
Hackers of the World -- Unite!
Secondly, we are calling out to all the international privacy hackers who
were following remotely, watching the webcast online, and generally
following our Aaron Swartz Day <https://www.aaronswartzday.org/> developments
(where I spoke about Pursuance not-1-not-2-but-3 times this year!)
If you would like to participate in Pursuance User Testing remotely, one
way you could do it would be to register on Pursuance's Mattermost chat
server <https://bit.ly/cwc-mminvite>, so we will be able to collaborate
with you there. Until Pursuance builds out a bit more of its functionality,
we will be using Mattermost to connect. This goes for all existing Aaron
Swartz Day projects, the projects Lisa is announcing, and any projects of
your own that you are looking to collaborate on with other members of the
Aaron Swartz Day community. Exciting indeed to have people coming together
from many parts of the globe. So that's 4pm-10pm PST - on Saturday December
9th.
Pursuance
Thirdly, we are officially beginning user testing of Pursuance
<https://pursuanceproject.org/>, an ambitious project intended to amplify
the efforts of activists, journalists, and non-profits around the world,
and that was started by formerly-imprisoned journalist and activist Barrett
Brown <https://twitter.com/BarrettBrown_>. About half of all CWC
participants are working on Pursuance (which I am the project manager and
lead developer of), and I deeply appreciate all of your efforts!
Task management and chat work great, and we are working on polishing things
up to start using internally within the next couple weeks. *If any of you
would like to be one of the first to try out Pursuance and give us your
feedback to help make this project as awesome as possible for the world's
activists, journalists, and non-profits*, let me know either in person or
via email (steve(a)tryingtobeawesome.com). *Tech stack: React + Go +
Postgres + **PostgREST* <https://tryingtobeawesome.com/postgrest/>* +
Bootstrap + WebSockets.*
With Pursuance, we aim to confront and correct, via an energetic, global
network of forward-thinking individuals, the injustices imposed on society
by criminalized institutions the world over.
Event Details
- 4pm - 10pm: Privacy hackathon this Saturday
<https://www.meetup.com/Cypherpunks-Write-Code/events/245596022/> (and
pretty much every Saturday!) at Noisebridge
<https://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=2169+Mission+St.%2C+San+Francisco%…>
(come
and go whenever you'd like)
- 5pm: Aaron Swartz Day Project Updates with Special Guest Lisa Rein
- More information about this event is in this epic blog post that Lisa
just posted: This Saturday: Aaron Swartz Day Reunion Hackathon and
Pursuance Party
<https://www.aaronswartzday.org/hackathon-and-pursuance-party/>
- Email lisa-at-lisarein.com with your project update info, and she will
include it on the above page :-)
Exciting times :-D. See you all there!

i played with the printer on the left last night (the one i used in my
circuitboard tutorial) and I started by plugging it into the network.
its IP address was 100.64.67.250 (MAC address: 00:00:aa:a7:ba:e0 )
it can also be reached at test-77520.local
i opened its address in my web browser and was able to see what its complaint
was, it showed graphically which panel was signalling an error (turns out it
thought the front was open and i reclosed it) and also the ink compartment lid
plastic is broken, so it needs a pencil (normal 1/4" diameter) as a spacer to
hold the black plastic thing down and trigger the "door closed" sensor.
I was doing other things at the time and then i had to leave to pick someone up
from the airport, but when i left the printer was not showing errors and was
just asking for more paper.
the web interface is essential because the LCD display on the front of the
printer is almost totally unreadable because the contrast is out of whack. I
was able to see it just enough to help me find it on the network and now we
know its MAC address and all that, and i wrote that stuff on a label that i
stuck on the front of the printer.
I didn't finish doing this, but the printer's web interface allows you to
upload a .PS postscript file to it to print, so that means to me that it can be
used from any operating system without drivers once we get it working at all.
I intend to try again perhaps tonight to get it working.

Henner made an open-hardware system for UV curing photoresist, and it works:

Hey everybody,
Sudo Mesh, Sudo Room, Omni Commons, et al. now has its own etherpad-lite
<https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite> instance running on the mesh and
also accessible via "the Internet." Help test it out by going to
https://peoplesopen.net/pad and creating your very own collaborative
SudoPad. We are currently working on documenting the service on our wiki,
https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/SudoPad, and it is still very much in the
testing phase, so use it with caution.
cheers,

does anyone have a lenovo laptop that has a place for a 3G WAN modem, that they
want to give me to play with? If it's an X120e with a broken screen, that
works because i just happen to have just the screen for such a computer.
replying off-list will avoid clogging people's inboxes who don't care.
thank you

Two proposals for tonight if we have a quorum of sudoers. This is one:

Am at HHN, and robb just "fixed" that big TV by successfully and
completely connecting the HDMI cable that was apparently "removed" by
someone else. So the Hitachi really _wasn't_ dead after all.
Yay robb!
