by Matthew Senate

Hey all, I encouraged Louise to stop by tomorrow. If this piques your interest, please contact her. // Matt ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Louise Bloom <louise.bloom(a)qeh.ox.ac.uk> Date: Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 3:50 PM Subject: [!SUDO-INFO!] Pop in visit Sun 20th? To: "info(a)sudoroom.org" <info(a)sudoroom.org> Hi Sudo Room, I am researcher from the University of Oxford working on the Humanitarian Innovation Project. I am in SF for a week learning what I can on how innovation and community spaces here in SF work and support the skills and innovation of the local community. I am taking this learning back for reflection in the humanitarian world and our work on conceptualising an innovation centre for refguees in Uganda. I am going to be in Oakland for the East Bay Mini Maker Faire tomorrow and wondered if it would be possible for me to pop in to say hi and see what you're up at some point during the day (perhaps before or after the faire). I noticed you do have some events running tomorrow, but do you stay open past 5pm?

Tentative: Hip Hop is Bigger than the Occupation documentary screening Sat @ 7pm?

by Matthew Senate

Hey all, First: is anyone in contact with folks at The New Parkway Theater? This group, Existence is Resistance, is trying to put on a screening of a documentary in Oakland about hip-hop artists who travel to Palestine to teach and learn. They're reaching out to The New Parkway, but as a fallback, I've offered the common space at 2141. I checked the public school and sudo calendars, I did not see any reservations for 7pm-10pm Saturday night, please correct me otherwise. https://sudoroom.org/ai1ec_event/tentative-hip-hop-is-bigger-than-the-occup… I assume The Public School will want to support this as well. ++++ View Trailer: http://youtu.be/PGvP0OREI2E Hip Hop is Bigger than the Occupation is a documentary about a ten day journey of artists traveling through Palestine, teaching and performing nonviolent resistance through the arts. The tour included M1 of Dead Prez, Shadia Mansour, Marcel Cartier, Mazzi of Soul Purpose, DJ Vega Benetton, Lowkey, Jody McIntyre and Trinidad, Brandon and Lavie from the South West Youth Collaborative/University of Hip Hop Chicago. Staying in the heart of Balata Refugee Camp at the Yafa Cultural Center in Nablus the group witnesses night raids, toured places like Hebron where there are roads for the Arabs and roads for the Jews, they meet families of shaheeds as well as young Palestinians who have been jailed, shot and humiliated. The group visits Bi’lin where they get shot at and tear gassed and experience first hand what it felt like living under occupation. ++++ // Matt

Tabling at the 2nd Annual East Bay Anarchist Book Fair

by Gregg Horton

Greetings, This is your informational email for tabling at the East Bay Anarchist Book Fair. It will tell you most of what you need to know to get through Saturday. Volunteers and organizers will be milling around to help all day long, and are identifiable by their name tags. If you need anything please flag one of them down and we will do what we can for you. First up. There was some confusion about this last year, so we want to clarify the issue this year. There are no free tables at the East Bay Anarchist Book Fair. We have chosen to adopt the percentage model, as used at The Montreal Anarchist Book Fair successfully for almost 15 years. We will not ask for payment in advance. We will come around late in the day on Saturday and ask to collect 10% of your sales. If you are an organization that does not sell anything or asks for donations or does sales under $200, then we require a minimum of $20. So please be prepared. We will come around about 4:30 or so to remind people and then check back in with each table around 5:30. If you are not tabling but receiving this email please tell those who will be tabling. Last year a few organizations did not pay stating they "did not know" payment was required. That response will not be acceptable this year. Anyone who does not pay this year will not be eligible to table next year. And we will grimace at you. A lot. The other thing to give you a heads up about is that we are encouraging Halloween costumes and would like to give out prizes for the best costumes. We are going to come around and ask people if they would like to donate something to the prize vault. Perhaps you will have an item or two that you would be happy to give! On to the logistics of the day. The book fair opens to the public at 10am, doors open for you at 8:30am. There are 27 tables, and we are at capacity. Selection is first come first serve. There is a great deal of wall space and outlets at regular intervals along the two long walls. You should bring your own power strips/extension cords if you anticipate needing power. There is wi-fi in the hall. We will have the area in front of the hall on 27th Street blocked off, for unloading and free hands to help you carry your wares. There is free parking on both sides of 27th Street. However, technically there is a two hour limit, Humanist hall says the city generally does not enforce this. We will have volunteers check periodically during the day to see if cars are being marked. There is a small parking lot behind the Hall on 28th Street, that will hold roughly a dozen cars, where it is safe to park all day. The helpers outside can direct you to this lot and it will be marked so you can't miss it. Again, parking here will be first come first serve. Each tabler gets a standard-six-foot-book-fair-table and two chairs. We can provide additional chairs upon request. We will do what we can to make the day as comfortable and as enjoyable for you as possible. There will be volunteers on hand to watch your table if you need a break or want to spend time enjoying the event. There will be coffee available on a limited basis to tablers and conversation holders until early afternoon. In terms of food, there are several small neighborhood places, and a Whole Foods about a third of a mile east on 27th Street. About a mile south on Broadway is downtown Oakland and Chinatown and about a mile northeast is a small business district on Piedmont Avenue. Each of these areas has quite a number of restaurants. More information about this will be available on Saturday at the info table. Tabling is scheduled to go until 6pm. Again there will be volunteers available to help carry and load you back to your vehicle if you require it. After tabling is over there will be karaoke and everyone is encouraged to attend. The complete schedule for the day can be found online at http://eastbayanarchist.com/conversations/ The complete list of tablers can be found at http://eastbayanarchist.com/tablers/ . Please check your listing and see that it is to your liking. Words, phrasing, link etc. For announcements, updates, and information on all the other events happening over the weekend visit https://www.facebook.com/events/227860837363480/?fref=ts If you have any questions or concerns please contact us and we will respond as quickly as possible. Thanks so much for participating, see you Saturday, October 26! On behalf of the EBAB planners, -ariel

Articles of Incorporation

by Marc Juul

Hi everysudoer For those of you who don't already know, sudo room is aiming to incorporate as a california non-profit, with the long-term goal of reaching 501(c)3 status. For now, we're working out Articles of Incorporation. These are based mostly on Noisebridge's Articles of Incorporation: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Articles_of_Incorporation In reading this, it may surprise people to see all of this talk of a board of directors and hierarchical structures. Most, if not all of this is required by law ( this law: http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/calawquery?codesection=corp ) and we can safely ignore it in the day to day running of our hackerspace. Instead of trying to explain, I will quote Mitch Altman responding to the question "What is the management structure [of Noisebridge] like?": "There isn't any. The official line is that we're an anarchist collective but the reality is that it's more of a web of trust model, with the usual elements of feudalism that crystallize out of any anarchic group. There's a board that appoints officers who technically have executive authority with regards to the space, but the reality is that if any of them actually exercised power they'd get thrown out. For certain things, like insurance, taxes, and our nonprofit filings, they have duties but those are invisible to the day-to-day operations." So, the important thing to remember is that these Articles of Incorporation allow the members to throw out any director who abuses their power. We will then go on to define how our day to day space is run outside of the articles of incorporation (e.g. in our bylaws). The power of a majority of the members to remove directors is defined in 7.6.c.2: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Articles_of_Incorporation#c._Removal_of_Directors If we want to tweak the Noisebridge articles of incorporation at all, I believe that the following are most in need of editing: * Article 3 - This is about our purpose and values. We can and should more or less freely change 3.1 and 3.2, but 3.3 should remain unchanged. * Article 6.1 - A member is proposed for membership by one existing member. Do we want to change this to two? * The Articles talk about how the board can fix fees for the members to pay, but we are almost certainly interested in letting members pay for their membership with work, by putting in time instead of money. I don't think we can put this into our articles of incorporation for two reasons: 1. The California Corporations code specifically says that the board may levy dues, but says nothing about levy'ing anything in place of dues: "5351. A corporation may levy dues, assessments or fees upon its members pursuant to its articles or bylaws, but a member upon learning of them may avoid liability for them by promptly resigning from membership, except where the member is, by contract or otherwise, liable for them. Article or bylaw provisions authorizing such dues, assessments or fees do not, of themselves, create such liability." http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/displaycode?section=corp&group=05001-0600… 2. I'm worried that we may count as an employer if we give out membership in return for work, which may subject us to a whole set of other laws. However, I am not a lawyer. Keep it mind that "membership" for the purposes of the articles of incorporation only refers to the right to vote on things related to the board and articles of incorporation. So we could fix this by simply defining additional membership in our bylaws that define the more important things, such as being part of decision-making at our weekly meetings and 24/7 access to the space, and defining a membership fee in the bylaws that can be substituted by putting in work. We then simply have the directors set an official membership fee of 0. The only weirdness with this solution: It would be easier to become a member in the eyes of the articles of incorporation (requiring only trust of another member) than it would be to become a member in the eyes of the bylaws. -- Marc/Juul

Eddan, did you read Marc's link? http://lists.sudoroom.org/pipermail/sudo-discuss/2013-October/003910.html I sent that email 12 days ago! Frankly, I'm tired of waiting on incorporation any more. I am thankful to Marc for helping us move forward. I respect the desire to find more radical horizontal legal hacks but the truth is, even being a regular corp would not make us any worse-off than we are NOW, where we have a DBA, bank account, lease and trifling assets in the legal names of a handful of people with no accountability other than the goodness of their hearts. IMO, we'd actually be closer to horizontal than now, as bizarre as that sounds. We'd also be generally more likely to exist at all, given that incorporation is the bottleneck for a wide variety of solutions to problems that damage our community with every week of not being solved. Which brings me to my other point: no amount of legalese in the world will make up for souring human relationships. With respect to the horror stories of orgs being slyly pwnd by white-collar embezzlement because of loopholes in their bylaws, it is vastly more likely that sudoroom would get pwnd by more informal, intangible problems like our board having poor skills at empathy, communication and listening. I am not indulging any fantasies about us turning Founding Father and overcoming our differences via parliamentary intrigue. If we can't work together on a simple document over several weeks, then this is pointless.

Have a heart! - free pig hearts looking for adventurous carnivore

by Patrik D'haeseleer

I'm about to order some pig hearts for a science experiment form C&M Meats in Berkeley, but they won't deal with an order of less than five. So - anyone want a free pig heart? About the same size and shape as a human heart. Halloween is coming up. So is end of BBQ season - hint, hint... Also perfect for dissection classes! These hearts are food grade, but will be much more intact than what you might find at the butcher (what's called a "bio-heart" in the trade: arteries still attached, no slit through the chambers to let the blood drain, etc.) Come on, have a heart!

Re: [sudo-discuss] Film Hacking : Hack A Film in a Day - OCT 20 Sunday at SudoRoom 9AM-4PM

by Liberty Madison

Hi Jenny! And others The calendar was cunsulted and Crypto is scheduled for Sunday at 2-5p correct? On any given day there are simultaneous events/meetups held at Sudo/common room on multiple days at multiple times Every Day. Ie Thursday nights with CCL , Oakland Wiki, Java Script, Phython as one example. Which to me is the makings of a excellent hackerspace! Executing Crypto does not exclude other events/ meetups /people from gathering/assembley/ visiting / touring/ hacking at Sudo/ Public School or the common space. It of course would prevent a similar large scale event from executing at the same time. Hack a Film in a Day was booked on that day (sunday oct 20)because the execution needs do NOT conflict with any standing events. The event, like many meetups held at Sudo,does not monopolize the space in the same way Crypto or a Oakland nights live event does. It requires neither a podium nor folding chairs :) If it were a large scale event or interfered with Crypto I would have certainly reached out to you personally or simply selected another date. The event begins at 9am at Sudo and remains on location for about 2-3 hours. If you have never attended a film hacking event or are unsure of what to expect please feel free to reach out off line. I understand your concern and need to ensure your event is ran successfully. I love Crypto! The last one was excellent! Both events will be a hit! I will certainly promote your event to anyone who attends Hack a Film in Day on Sunday ! Come for the digital and stay to encrypt it! Collaboration is key! Please feel free to reach out off list if you have specific questions or concerns or if you are curious of the format! I would love to have you attend!

Hacker from Togo Makes $100 3D Printer From E-Waste

by Eddan Katz

This is super cool. And a great example of why I think we should become more aware of developing country innovation because their constraints are more likely to embed sustainability design values. ---- West African Inventor Makes a $100 3D Printer From E-Waste http://inhabitat.com/west-african-inventor-makes-a-100-3d-printer-from-e-wa… by Timon Singh, 10/12/13 Kodjo Afate Gnikou, a resourceful inventor from Togo in West Africa, has made a $100 3D printer which he constructed from parts he scrounged from broken scanners, computers, printers and other e-waste. The fully functional DIY printer cost a fraction of those currently on the market, and saves environmentally damaging waste from reaching landfill sites. Discarded electronic equipment is one of the world’s fastest-growing sources of waste, as consumers frequently replace “old” models that become more obsolete each year. However instead of letting e-waste sit them on the scrap pile or head to the landfill, Kodjo Afate Gnikou decided to utilize spare parts in order to create a cheap, DIY 3D printer. Gnikou is part of WoeLab, a hackerspace in the city of Lomé, and has big plans for his recycling project. According to his crowd funding page, he is working with FacLab-France in the WAFATE to Mars project, which aims to make machines from recycled e-waste to prepare for missions on Mars. Systems like the 3D printer could become a crucial part of missions on the Red Planet should they ever go ahead. Gnikou’s 3D printer was mostly made from materials he obtained from a junk yard in Lomé, though he did have to buy a few parts. The entire system cost about $100 which is a bargain considering current models on the market can cost thousands of dollars. According to his fundraising page, Gnikou aims that with his project, he will “put technology into needy hands and give Africa the opportunity to not only be a spectator but to play the first role in a more virtuous industrial revolution.” To support Gnikou’s project, click here. sent from eddan.com

Hacking a phone

by Jeremy Entwistle

Hi everybody, My phone got interrupted while upgrading the firmware and I was wondering if anybody would be interested in fixing it. I'm willing to pay if you can get it running again. I have spent quite a bit of the weekend trying to fix it and I'm at a breaking point with it. It's a Samsung S2 for Sprint (D710) and it boots to Odin mode, but not recovery mode. However, my computer... and a few other computers I've tried won't recognize my phone in Odin mode. It was running Android 4.0.4 with the eMMc bug. I read that you might still be able to do it in Hiemdall, but I don't want to invest another weekend into fixing it. Take care, Jeremy -- https://twitter.com/jwentwistle

If you're looking for a way to put this produce to use, mingle with fellow gardeners, and share with community members in need, join us at the Victory Garden Crop Swap and Harvest to Feed! Meet on Friday, October 18th; 12- 2 pm at the Telegraph Community Center, 5316 Telegraph Ave, Oakland 94609 (across from the Temescal Library.) This is the location of the North Oakland Telegraph Ministry Center Food Pantry that distributes food to those in need. About 200 people are served each week. Bring homegrown crops and seeds to share or trade with fellow gardeners and members of the community. All excess produce will be donated to the food pantry. Please join us - Bring your abundance! Bring a few crops! Bring yourself and a smile! We are currently also looking for volunteers to help run the crop swap. If you are interested and have time to share, come by a few minutes early on Friday to chat with us! We will be there starting at 11 to set up.

Hey all, Aspiration Tech is an excellent group of folks. Please consider joining for this excellent event.

[HELP] Oak Tech teacher requests space 6hrs/1x/month **starting Sunday**

by Vicky Knox

Do you all have any recommendations on how to expedite this? What is the current status of the large room and using it for events? For background, this teacher origianally contacted info@sudoroom but never got a response, and called the SR number today, slightly frantic. I think it would be really awesome if we were able to help her out. This event seems quite an incredible opportunity for young people. ykciV ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Vivian Pustell <vivian.pustell(a)ousd.k12.ca.us> Date: Mon, Oct 7, 2013 at 4:16 PM Subject: Space use? To: info(a)sudoroom.org Hi Sudo Room! I'm a teacher at Oakland Tech High, not far from you. I've organized a team of students who are all taking part in the CyberPatriot info sec competition. They're training really hard--and learning a lot--so that they can enter the competition. We've run into a stumbling block, though--the competition windows for reach round are always on a weekend, and the school district has informed me that I can't use the school on the weekend without paying. We are a small group--me, our mentor, and about four students--and we need space to compete once a month (with one month where we compete twice) for about six hours on a Sunday afternoon. Is there any way we can negotiate use of some space at a reasonable rate? They're really excited about this, but I'm afraid we might not have a place to meet and compete if I can't find a space we can afford. Thanks so much for any consideration you can give to us, or any suggestions for other locations we might try! Best, -Vivienne Pustell Teacher, OTHS

Breaking: Oakland to lead country in diverting anti-terror funding to ubiquitous warrantless surveillance

by Eddan Katz

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/14/technology/privacy-fears-as-surveillance-… October 13, 2013 Privacy Fears as Surveillance Grows in Cities By SOMINI SENGUPTA OAKLAND, Calif. — Federal grants of $7 million awarded to this city were meant largely to help thwart terror attacks at its bustling port. But instead, the money is going to a police initiative that will collect and analyze reams of surveillance data from around town — from gunshot-detection sensors in the barrios of East Oakland to license plate readers mounted on police cars patrolling the city’s upscale hills. The new system, scheduled to begin next summer, is the latest example of how cities are compiling and processing large amounts of information, known as big data, for routine law enforcement. And the system underscores how technology has enabled the tracking of people in many aspects of life. The police can monitor a fire hose of social media posts to look for evidence of criminal activities; transportation agencies can track commuters’ toll payments when drivers use an electronic pass; and the National Security Agency, as news reports this summer revealed, scooped up telephone records of millions of cellphone customers in the United States. Like the Oakland effort, other pushes to use new surveillance tools in law enforcement are supported with federal dollars. The New York Police Department, aided by federal financing, has a big data system that links 3,000 surveillance cameras with license plate readers, radiation sensors, criminal databases and terror suspect lists. Police in Massachusetts have used federal money to buy automated license plate scanners. And police in Texas have bought a drone with homeland security money, something that Alameda County, which Oakland is part of, also tried but shelved after public protest. Proponents of the Oakland initiative, formally known as the Domain Awareness Center, say it will help the police reduce the city’s notoriously high crime rates. But critics say the program, which will create a central repository of surveillance information, will also gather data about the everyday movements and habits of law-abiding residents, raising legal and ethical questions about tracking people so closely. Libby Schaaf, an Oakland City Council member, said that because of the city’s high crime rate, “it’s our responsibility to take advantage of new tools that become available.” She added, though, that the center would be able to “paint a pretty detailed picture of someone’s personal life, someone who may be innocent.” For example, if two men were caught on camera at the port stealing goods and driving off in a black Honda sedan, Oakland authorities could look up where in the city the car had been in the last several weeks. That could include stoplights it drove past each morning and whether it regularly went to see Oakland A’s baseball games. For law enforcement, data mining is a big step toward more complete intelligence gathering. The police have traditionally made arrests based on small bits of data — witness testimony, logs of license plate readers, footage from a surveillance camera perched above a bank machine. The new capacity to collect and sift through all that information gives the authorities a much broader view of the people they are investigating. For the companies that make big data tools, projects like Oakland’s are a big business opportunity. Microsoft built the technology for the New York City program. I.B.M. has sold data-mining tools for Las Vegas and Memphis. Oakland has a contract with the Science Applications International Corporation, or SAIC, to build its system. That company has earned the bulk of its $12 billion in annual revenue from military contracts. As the federal military budget has fallen, though, SAIC has diversified to other government agency projects, though not without problems. The company’s contract to help modernize the New York City payroll system, using new technology like biometric readers, resulted in reports of kickbacks. Last year, the company paid the city $500 million to avoid a federal prosecution. The amount was believed to be the largest ever paid to settle accusations of government contract fraud. SAIC declined to comment. Even before the initiative, Oakland spent millions of dollars on traffic cameras, license plate readers and a network of sound sensors to pick up gunshots. Still, the city has one of the highest violent crime rates in the country. And an internal audit in August 2012 found that the police had spent $1.87 million on technology tools that did not work properly or remained unused because their vendors had gone out of business. The new center will be far more ambitious. From a central location, it will electronically gather data around the clock from a variety of sensors and databases, analyze that data and display some of the information on a bank of giant monitors. The city plans to staff the center around the clock. If there is an incident, workers can analyze the many sources of data to give leads to the police, fire department or Coast Guard. In the absence of an incident, how the data would be used and how long it would be kept remain largely unclear. The center will collect feeds from cameras at the port, traffic cameras, license plate readers and gunshot sensors. The center will also be integrated next summer with a database that allows police to tap into reports of 911 calls. Renee Domingo, the city’s emergency services coordinator, said school surveillance cameras, as well as video data from the regional commuter rail system and state highways, may be added later. Far less advanced surveillance programs have elicited resistance at the local and state level. Iowa City, for example, recently imposed a moratorium on some surveillance devices, including license plate readers. The Seattle City Council forced its police department to return a federally financed drone to the manufacturer. In Virginia, the state police purged a database of millions of license plates collected by cameras, including some at political rallies, after the state’s attorney general said the method of collecting and saving the data violated state law. But for a cash-starved city like Oakland, the expectation of more federal financing makes the project particularly attractive. The City Council approved the program in late July, but public outcry later compelled the council to add restrictions. The council instructed public officials to write a policy detailing what kind of data could be collected and protected, and how it could be used. The council expects the privacy policy to be ready before the center can start operations. The American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California described the program as “warrantless surveillance” and said “the city would be able to collect and stockpile comprehensive information about Oakland residents who have engaged in no wrongdoing.” The port’s chief security officer, Michael O’Brien, sought to allay fears, saying the center was meant to hasten law-enforcement response time to crimes and emergencies. “It’s not to spy on people,” he said. Steve Spiker, research and technology director at the Urban Strategies Council, an Oakland nonprofit organization that has examined the effectiveness of police technology tools, said he was uncomfortable with city officials knowing so much about his movements. But, he said, there is already so much public data that it makes sense to enable government officials to collect and analyze it for the public good. Still, he would like to know how all that data would be kept and shared. “What happens,” he wondered, “when someone doesn’t like me and has access to all that information?”

Fwd: {BayAreaPublicSchool} After School Tutoring @ The Holdout

by Jenny Ryan

This is really rad! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Lindsey Boldt <lindsbo(a)gmail.com> Date: Sun, Oct 13, 2013 at 10:33 AM Subject: {BayAreaPublicSchool} After School Tutoring @ The Holdout To: bayareapublicschool(a)googlegroups.com Hey BAPSters, Do folks already know that The Holdout Social Center (http://theholdout.org/) is now providing after school tutoring for youth? Very exciting! I know some folks involved with BAPS have expressed an interest in working with Oakland youth, especially in a non-school setting, so this would be a great opportunity to do that. Tutors are needed and welcome. They're currently offering homework help and youth programming "such as Youth Power and Healthy Hoods" on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3-6pm. Here's a link to their fundraising page. http://www.razoo.com/story/Holdout-Tutoring?referral_code=share They're currently trying to raise money for books, supplies and healthy snacks. They're also looking for donations of: Nourishing Snacks, Pencils/ Pens/ Paper, Books, Crayons/ Colored Pencils, Scissors/ Glue, AND tutors! I personally have not been over to check it out yet, but am excited by the prospect of a radical space like The Holdout offering something as necessary as homework help to the immediate community surrounding its space. So cool!

proposal to increase membership at noisebridge by changing the rules

by Jake

currently noisebridge is used by 99% non-Members, 1% Members. currently, 99% of noisebridge Members do not use noisebridge. currently, Membership at noisebridge requires ongoing cash flow into noisebridge either by tradition or rules, it is not clear which. I think this is not working out. Noisebridge's rent gets paid but the people who come to noisebridge have zero motivation to become a member, and so they don't bother. We should be adding several new members weekly. Membership at Noisebridge should be a valuable tool to encourage cooperation and a sense of belonging, while reinforcing accountability and support between users of the space (including Members and Guests) There is no reason for membership to be tied to giving money to noisebridge. If someone is excellent and wants to be a part of noisebridge, and no Member blocks them, they should be allowed to join. Members should remain in good standing regardless of their financial contributions as long as they are remaining excellent and accountable for their actions, and those of their guests. I propose that Noisebridge change the rules of Membership to do away with the cash flow requirement, and to expressly do away with the informal and inappropriate "bribe", which defeats the purpose of asking the potential member to step out while their membership is consensed upon _or_not_. We agreed last week to close noisebridge to non-Members from 23:00 to 10:00 every day, with the exception of guests of Members and Members-in-Application who have two signatures. We will be able to take advantage of this policy by encouraging more SUPPORTERS of noisebridge to become Members. We can do this by removing the payment requirement. If people want to support Noisebridge with money, they should feel free to do so, whether they are Members or not. If people want to support Noisebridge with their presence, excellence, and accountability to one another, they should feel free to do so, whether they are in a position to supply cash or not. I think this should be obvious. I ask that absentee Members, who have been unable or unmotivated to offer their support in the form of their presence, excellence, and accountability, please stand aside from this proposal if they have objections (or offer friendly amendments in the spirit of problem solving). People who are not regularly using the space should not stand in the way of improvements to be made by those who do use and contribute to the space regularly. The proposal should be worded as follows: Membership to Noisebridge should no longer be dependant on a person's ability or willingness to pay money to noisebridge, or to bring food or beer to a meeting, but only on their ability to acquire sponsorship signatures and be consensed upon at a meeting, after leaving the meeting to give opportunity for any objections to be discussed before they return. Members will thus enter and remain in good standing without regard to any financial contributions they do or do not make in that time. -jake

Revenge Porn

Tomorrow Sat 10/12: TIL Levels up to Today We Learned experiments in colearning!

by Marina Kukso

"Today I Learned" has leveled up to "Today We Learned"! We've had a lot of fun at TILs and other events (open hack nights at LOL makerspace <http://pocmakerspace.org/>!) learning together informally, so we're trying out a new format for Saturday afternoons - open co-learning with time available for people to give workshops, present things they're working on, etc. >From the wiki <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Today_We_Learned>: Hi everyone! We're trying out a new experiment in co-learning. *two hours of time* Every Saturday from 2PM to 4PM (but really till whenever) in the common area of Sudo Room. *to learn together* We get to figure out what that means. What's most useful to us? What do we want to learn? What do we want to share? How do we want to do this? *with minimal, optional coordination beforehand* https://pad.riseup.net/p/twl This pad has the next TWL's date and a bunch of empty space. Share what you're planning on working on; what you'd like to learn; if you'd like to sign up to do a workshop, do it here; if you want to give a lightning talk about some new thing you're working on/learning, post it here (you can even post a time...like, "I'll be giving a short talk on some new things I've been working on at 3PM"). We'll fill up the pad throughout the week and we'll clear it out after that week's session so that we have a nice, fresh sheet for the following week. You can share the pad with others to invite them to your workshop or to work on a topic together (for example, you can post that you'll be learning python <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_%28programming_language%29>and then send this to everyone you know to say "hey! i'll be learning python! if you want to work on python together, come join me!"). come tomorrow for the first one & add what you want to learn/plan to work on on the pad: https://pad.riseup.net/p/twl! - Marina

by Matthew Senate

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: George <travology(a)mindspring.com> Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2013 17:46:10 -0700 Subject: Fw: [Long Now Members] Manual for Civilization To: Matthew Senate <mattsenate(a)gmail.com> ----- Original Message ----- From: Alexander Rose To: members(a)list.longnow.org Sent: Wednesday, October 09, 2013 10:57 AM Subject: [Long Now Members] Manual for Civilization Long Now Members, Please help us find the most useful books in the world... We have begun an effort to populate our upcoming book collection for the Salon called The Manual for Civilization. This will be the 3500 books you would most want if you had to restart civilization. So.. If you were stranded on a desert island, what books will YOU pick? Come on, be honest (and selective). Behold the ONE TRUE GOOGLE FORM. We have made strides to make it as easy as possible to make submissions. Our main identifier is an Amazon URL which will later be parsed by a massive child labor force in a secret underground bunker into things like ISBN and book size etc. But right now we are trying to grow the list as broad as possible with amazing selections. Dont get too hung up on details or categories, just make good submissions. There will be a later vetting process that will be more fun that playing "Hot or Not" in 01998. Ready, set, go..! (dont forget to bookmark this page so you can come back to it as you think of more books later) -- Alexander Rose Long Now executive director -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Members mailing list unsubscribe / change email: http://list.longnow.org/mailman/listinfo/members

Restore the Fourth SF Bay Area update

by Alice Townes

Dear friends from other organizations, We just wanted to give you a brief update on what we've been doing, hopefully you can pass it along to your respective organizations. The resolution project is in slow motion, as is the shareholder proposal project. There is a Rally Against Mass Surveillance in DC on October 26th, and we are raising money to send Bay Area residents to the rally by train, https://www.wepay.com/donations/restore-the-fourth-sf-bay-area-1026-rally-f… Our checking account is with the Internet Archive's credit union, which we think is really cool! We're not able to give a location for the local 10/26 activities just yet, but we know it will be from 9 am to 12 pm. Two other upcoming privacy events: Sudoroom's monthly cryptoparty is on Oct 20th https://sudoroom.org/ai1ec_event/cryptoparty-a-digital-security-privacy-wor… we will be presenting at the Aaron Swartz Hackathon Nov 8-10. http://aaronswartzhackathon.org/ Best, Alice Legal Advisor Restore the Fourth SF Bay Area http://www.restorethefourthsf.com/

East Bay Mini Maker Faire?

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Is Sudo Room planning a booth a East Bay Mini Maker Faire, weekend after next? If so - any idea where you'll be located? The EBMMF is much smaller, more intimate, and has much more of a community feel than the giant San Mateo Maker Faire. Typically lots more families as well. Different atmosphere, but just as much creative fun - strongly recommended! We'll have a booth for Counter Culture Labs (I did a booth for BioCurious the past two years). Use code CCLAB for a 15% discount off you ticket. Last year, we were in the same room as Ace Monster Toys, Tekla Labs, and Hacker Moms - great neighbors! Patrik
