We really need to put pressure on these F*!&^#(&-ing A*!&^#(&-holes at the Boy Scouts of America. They really do not seem to care about the world we all inhabit, and need to be put in their place. MAKE, Sparkfun, Adafruit are into pressuring the BSA. If we can get a bunch of hackerspaces to do the same, we will make an impact. "no matter what happens, how we all react to a group like the BSA will define "us" fighting and losing is ok, but i think you need to fight it all the way… think of a world where there are hacker scouts, learning sharing and it would all start with a shared victory together over an old oppressive scared group trying to get in the way of the future." -- Phil Torrone, of Adafruit Here are just a few places to add some well-placed comments: >>>>>> Boy Scouts Google+ page: >>>>>> https://plus.google.com/u/0/+BoyScoutsofAmerica/posts >>>>>> >>>>>> Boy Scouts Facebook page: >>>>>> https://www.facebook.com/pages/Boy-Scouts-of-America/113441755297 >>>>>> >>>>>> Bot Scouts on Twitter: >>>>>> https://twitter.com/boyscouts >>>>>> >>>>>> Boy Scouts on YouTube: >>>>>> http://www.youtube.com/bsa100years >>>>>> >>>>>> Email: >>>>>> PR(a)scouting.org >>>>>> >>>>>> The official publication for the adult volunteers site: >>>>>> http://blog.scoutingmagazine.org >>>>>> >>>>>> On Twitter: >>>>>> http://www.twitter.com/scouting >>>>>> >>>>>> On Facebook: >>>>>> http://www.facebook.com/scoutingmagazine >>>>>> >>>>>> Email: >>>>>> scoutingmag(a)gmail.com >>>>>> >>>>>> Boy's Life Magazine: >>>>>> http://boyslife.org/ >>>>>> >>>>>> On Twitter: >>>>>> https://twitter.com/BoysLife >>>>>> Email: >>>>>> boyslife.mag(a)scouting.org Best, Mitch.

Fwd: Course for the Fall: i290M- Open Collaboration and Peer Production

by Matthew Senate

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Sebastian Benthall <sbenthall(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Aug 20, 2013 at 11:37 AM Subject: Course for the Fall: i290M- Open Collaboration and Peer Production To: oa-team(a)lists.berkeley.edu, open-it(a)lists.berkeley.edu Cc: D-Lab Team <dlab-team(a)lists.berkeley.edu>, Aaron Culich < aculich(a)eecs.berkeley.edu> Hi all, Just wanted to circulate this course announcement for what we'll be teaching this Fall. Note the section at the end where we are encouraging people working on open projects to contact us so we can direct students towards them. Please forward widely. Thanks -- Seb *i290M Fall 2013 : Open Collaboration and Peer Production* *Instructors : Sebastian Benthall, Thomas Maillart and John Chuang* *Class : F 11am-1pm in South Hall 210* *Lab : T 1-2pm in South Hall 202 and on Internet Relay Chat (IRC)* http://courses.ischool.berkeley.edu/i290m-ocpp/site/information.html *Course Description : *This course is a hands-on exploration of the theory and practice of open online collaboration. Students will engage multi-disciplinary literature about collaboration while contributing to an existing open project (such as open source software, Wikipedia, or OpenStreetMap). Readings will explore business models for open source software organizations, incentives of cooperation and organization design for open source projects. Practical work will be organized around themes of project management infrastructure, community self-governance, and engineering education through open source participation. The goal of the class is to engage students in an existing open source community while developing functionality and expertise that can be part of iSchool Masters projects, faculty-directed research, and beyond. *Prerequisites* : Programming skills are not a prerequisite, but programmers are more than welcome to join. Students will come to the first lecture with an idea of the open project they want to contribute to, and which problem they want to address. If possible, a first contact with the community active in the project should already be established. *UC Berkeley Open Source Projects Promotion * This class promotes contributions by students to UC Berkeley Open Source Projects. Feel free to contact us at sb(a)ischool.berkeley.edu to explain your progress so we can match students with it.

sudo mate gear

by Marc Juul

I have been told that one or more of the people currently running sudo mate have removed mate-brewing gear from sudo room and are apparently brewing at another location. This seems like something that should have been brought up with the group, or at least been announced to the mailing list. (Perhaps it was and I just missed the email?) There are now a few issues: 1. No-one else can now brew mate at sudo room. 2. Some of that gear was purchased by and for the beer brewing group, which made the last bottling session problematic. 3. I don't know the contact info for anyone who knows about this. Who-ever moved the gear: We love you for brewing delicious sudo mate for sudo room, but please reply to this email and update the sudo mate wiki page! -- Marc Juul

TIL Fixit Clinic Questions?

by Steve Berl

Hello, The Fixit Clinic is going to do a TIL on August 24, and I have a few questions: - Will the common room be available for us to expand into if there are more people than comfortably fit in the sudoroom? - Is anyone with knowledge of the 3D printer planning to be there? At a recent Fixit Clinic in Boulder, CO someone was able to fix a broken blender by 3D printing a part "while you wait". I think that is incredibly cool, and would hope that if an opportunity presented itself to do this here, it would be fun, but I don't know anything about running the printer, the modeling software, etc. Thanks, and see you next Saturday. -- -steve

Android beta testers needed for my new open source app

by rhodey

Hello All, I'm in need of some beta testers for my new Android app, RedZone. RedZone is a Find My Phone type app with a geofencing twist that I've been working on since Open Whisper System's Spring Break of Code event earlier this year. Upon public release the app will be fully open sourced and made available for free on Google Play without adds or any of that other junk. The application has be written to support all versions of Android 4.2.2 and higher. I've tested it extensively on the Nexus One, Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 but now I need the help of others. If interested please contact me, I hope to distribute beta APKs starting tomorrow or soon after. If you know of anyone outside this list who might also be interested please provide them with my email address as well. Cheers, -- rhodey

on craigslist

by hello＠sl-co.com

From a different mailing list but of likely interest here too, I share a posting from Craigslist. GO Josh! j. Non-profit auto repair facility needs help I am an auto mechanic by trade and have been in the industry for over 14 years. I recently moved to Oakland and I am interested in starting a non-profit auto repair facility or some other form of community based auto repair. I want to do my part to help the people of oakland and the community as a whole to get their cars fixed and running properly. This will help people get and stay employed. It will reduce carbon emission by keeping cars running properly and more efficiently. And it will reduce pollution by guaranteeing the proper disposal of toxic chemicals that may otherwise be disposed of in other ways. I am in the very beginning of the process and reaching out to any and everybody that is willing to help, give advice, and/or be involved. I have all or at least most of the automotive knowledge to run the business, but I am NOT a business guy. The concept of writing a business plan is like asking me to design a suspension bridge. It seems overwhelming and daunting. I envision several different aspects of this business. I would like to have a sliding scale that would cater to low income customers. I want to be a community resource for knowledge about the auto repair industry and possibly even have classes to teach people about their cars and how to fix them. I envision hiring young people and teaching them a skill so that they can become successful. Or possibly hiring felons or other "non-hirable" members of the community. I also think all profit should go into a fund to help supplement the lower income customers. Please help. If you think you have information or know how to get the ball rolling or want to be apart of the project, please contact me. Together, let's do our part to get people to work and keep food on their tables. This city needs us. And either way, who doesn't need an honest mechanic? I mean really! Thank you!!!

Cryptoparty Postponed til August 31st, 12-3pm!

by Jenny Ryan

Hey folks, The Cryptoparty / Digital Security Workshop scheduled for this Sunday has been postponed until *Saturday, August 31st*. That Saturday is the last day of The Public School's weeklong Summer School. The general theme of that day will be Information, so we'll start the day with a Cryptoparty - with hands-on workshops to assist you in generating key signatures, using encrypted and off-the-record chat, and other tools such as Tor and Redphone. We'll wrap up the day with lightning talks ranging from the Electronic Frontier Foundation's work in fighting for civil liberties, discussions of why privacy and security matter, and the Oakland mesh network project. Looking forward to seeing you there!

Need to film inside of a server co-location.

by rusty lindgren

Does anyone have access to a co-location room that I could film in? Or, alternatively, does anyone care if I borrow a bunch of the rack servers from sudo for like a day in the next couple of weeks? I am shooting a scene for a film, and will need it. Server co-lo would be sweet. Let me know, Rusty Lindgren **

Fwd: [spaghettinight] You're invited to Hear from a Basque (Spain) ecovillage researcher/blogger over tea tonight at PLACE

hi all, an alternate event for this evening if you're not coming to sudo :) you can go to this event and represent us! - marina ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Raines Cohen <raines(a)mac.com> Date: Tue, Aug 13, 2013 at 4:14 PM Subject: [spaghettinight] You're invited to Hear from a Basque (Spain) ecovillage researcher/blogger over tea tonight at PLACE To: The Spaghetti Night mailing list <spaghettinight(a)tentacle.net> Spaghettifolk, we've got a fun guy in town involved in international sustainable communities (like your lovely group homes) and we're having him over for tea tonight at a PLACE for Sustainable Living, the neighborhood ecovillage near Alcatraz and San Pablo. We are hosting a researcher/videoblogger from Northern Spain who is giving a talk tonight about his explorations of sustainable community. Join *Ortzi Akizu* tonight over tea in conversations about his travel to explore different sustainable living models around the world. It would be a delight to see you there - he almost made it to SpaghettiNight at Cooperative Roots last night, but the East Bay Permaculture Guild meeting ran long, and he is eager to meet some of you before he leaves town tomorrow. Come early for potluck, or later for conversation and tea. Optional RSVP via our East Bay Cohousing MeetUp group: http:// www.ebcoho.org/events/134540422/ P.S. If you've got any openings to fill, we've got lots of eager, experienced community seekers on our East Bay Cohousing group and can help facilitate introductions and connections, and/or list your open house events, in more effective ways than the Craig's List overwhelm. I just yesterday ran into a SpaghettiNighter from Milky Way Co-op who found some folks from our list, and two others who we connected to Prudence Crandall House.

Fwd: [FixitClinic] Leapfrog educational tablets

by Steve Berl

Anyone interested? -steve ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Peter Mui <petermui(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Aug 13, 2013 at 7:49 AM Subject: [FixitClinic] Leapfrog educational tablets To: fixitfan(a)googlegroups.com Hi Fixit Fans: Are you interested in this? Contact Jon directly. -Peter Begin forwarded message: *From: *J L <juanitobandito(a)hotmail.com> *Subject: **Fixit: Leapfrog educational tablets* *Date: *August 13, 2013 12:41:55 AM PDT *To: *"petermui(a)gmail.com" <petermui(a)gmail.com> Hi, Peter, My mom works for the West Contra Costa County School District. The district is decommissioning hardware and software for the Leapfrog Leap Pad system. There are 30 non-working tablets. My mom suspects the styluses need attention. She can show someone how to do this, but she doesn't have the time to do it herself. These tablets and probably many more would then be available (with accompanying hard- and software) for donation to an NGO or other after-school program. The set-up just requires one Windows XP computer per classroom. Is this something Fixit Clinic could help with? We don't know who might need this system, but my mom says it's a good learning methodology. Without repair and a donation recipient, a few classrooms worth of stuff will become e-waste.

Workshop idea: Make extra chargers for your portable electronics

by Thomas Levine

We have a bunch of AC/DC power adapters lying around, and we could turn these into extra chargers for our respective laptops and phones. Is anyone interested in having a session on this? If so, I'll run it. The session might go like this. 1. I explain the relevant stuff about electricity (for at most 10 minutes). 2. We look up the electrical requirements of our devices. 3. We look for matching chargers. 4. If a charger supplies the right electricity but has the wrong plugs, we cut off the plugs and exchange them. We'd need these materials. * Things you want to make adapters for * Adapters that you're not using, to add to our pool in Sudoroom I can also bring some assorted plugs. If you have a Mac laptop, you should acquire a broken charger; the plugs seem to be proprietary.

Logo Revision

by Ryan

After a long hiatus, the logo revision is back online and ready to be discussed. I've attached a four page .pdf to review the latest iterations based on the last feedback I received. For those not familiar, we've been discussing this for several months now, and have gone through a lot of different ideas. Prudently, most sudoers have gravitated towards the logo sketches more similar to the current logo, and here we are. This Survey Monkey survey question <http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Z9W5K3Y>applies to the Very Last Page (4) of the attached presentation. Please provide feedback.

Great to see SudoRoom at the Noisebridge party!

by Romy Ilano

It was cool sitting with the SudoRoom folks in the Noisebridge Library. So many people would have tried to get on my case about how "print is dead" and told me books are "dead trees." I should go "look online" where all the "information" is. It was cool learning about POSIX, going over SmallTalk, and learning about Ruby, Python and so on while looking at print books. Viva SudoRoom!

make your own RFID tag

by Jake

i mean, the real things are only about $2 and an attiny chip is $1, and your time is surely worth something, and you should just get a numeric code to get into sudoroom, which doesn't require any matter, but in case you decide to make an RFID tag yourself, here's how: http://scanlime.org/2008/09/using-an-avr-as-an-rfid-tag/ i believe this will work with the sudoroom RFID reader. but why bother? you can just buy a tag or get a code you can type in. -jake

Re: [sudo-discuss] Oakland Police Radio Feed

by Jake

does anyone know what the frequency is? One can buy a $12 SDR receiver which plugs into the USB, and can decode many kinds of radio signals including fancy encryptable signals used by some police depts. once we get reception going, it will be appropriate to talk about choosing a server to host a stream. -jake Aug 6, 2013 09:34:34 AM, yardenack at gmail.com wrote: >There used to be a way to listen online to OPD's radio communications >here: http://www.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/10182 > >This required someone in the city to connect an analog radio and serve >the content digitally.

Re: [sudo-discuss] sudoroom phone!

I don't know. We do! Our paired DSL comes with two phone numbers: 510-858-5052 510-858-7145 Right now our modem is attached directly to a 2-line jack. To start receiving calls, all we need is a splitter box and DSL filters. Last I checked there were a number of decent handsets lying around. We really should have done this already, and I'm glad someone is showing the initiative. :)

sudoroom phone!

by Jake

I think sudoroom should have a telephone! a real telephone, wired into the wall. Perhaps sudoroom already has a telephone number? I don't know. The reason i say this is because unlike noisebridge, sudoroom is only open (to non-members a.k.a. potential members) at uncertain times. I would really like to be able to tell these people "call this number to see if anyone is at the space". That way, if sudoroom is open, the members there can answer the telephone and tell the noobs that it's okay to bike over, or whatever they do for transport. If there is not a telephone at sudoroom already, I think we should set up a VOIP phone. I know there is at least one VOIP box at sudoroom and if not, i volunteer to donate one. (it's just a little box that plugs into the ethernet, and has a telephone jack) If anyone has a nice telephone, we can use that. Alternately I volunteer to grab a payphone from noisebridge (there are a couple on a shelf) and bolt it to the wall inside sudoroom and set it up. but i am not willing to set up the VOIP account and configure the little box, someone else can do that. Fortunately the cost of a VOIP phone line is on the order of $2 per month (yes thats right). I think it should be a 510 number, because some people don't have long distance and it actually matters. -jake

Moar Bottles!!11

by Morten H. D. Fuglsang

Folks, Subiir needs more bottles still, in order to bottle our most recent batch. So get your beer-face, get to drink, rinse with the bottle washer and place in cupboard. Also, remember to get regular capped bottles, no twist-tops :) Harrr! Make a great day, Morten

Radio Update

by Marina Kukso

hi everyone, radio room was rearranged this past weekend and is still somewhat in flux. things are disconnected and kind of all over the place. also the raspberry pi that was streaming content from the radio room to radio.sudoroom.org has a problem and i am borrowing both it and the audio interface that was attached to it to troubleshoot it. i've left notes in the radio room to this effect as well. will aim to return both of these (hopefully fixed!) within the next few days! best, marina
