TV IV

by Ed Biow

I know we have a couple of broken TVs in the sudoroom. Does anyone know if they are solid waste or if they can be fixed? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWzPcDtZZZo Anyway, I inherited a 32" "Dynex" LCD TV from a deceased friend that I have no use for if we want to use that instead. It isn't great (720p), but it works. Should I bring it in or would that just increase ambient clutter? I think I have a wall mounting bracket for it if we want to put it somewhere else. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phcOXphCUQo Also, it looks like we're closing in on our Indiegogo target, we're at about $38,500 of $40k. I hereby excuse $1500 of the geld I guess the Omni is in the process of repaying me (I advanced some clink for the ballroom lift), if Niki or someone can tell me what to do to formalize that I guess it would be a goodness.

Invoice #137 from Omni Oakland Commons

by Sarah Pritchard

Hello Sudoers! As you may know, the Omni recently paid the State Farm insurance policies for all collectives through June 2015. Because our lease requires that all groups maintain current insurance policies, we decided to pay everyone's insurance up front rather than risk incurring fines from John Givens due to accidental lapses in individual policies. Below is a link to an invoice for Sudo Room's State Farm insurance policy through June 2015. Take a look and let me know if you have any questions. If it would be helpful for you to pay the Omni in monthly installments, that's fine too. Just let me know what you'd like to do. Thanks so much! Sarah + Finances WG Below please find a link to Invoice #137. Amount due: $581.46 USD Due by: 2015-01-28 To view this invoice, please visit: https://waveapps.com/x4krue-qh2jzt

edible education lecture series (free!)

by J Clark

Thought some sudoers and Omnis would be interested in this free series. http://food.berkeley.edu/edible-education-101/ *Watch Berkeley's free lecture series on fixing the world's broken food systems* /"Eating is, among other things, an ecological act."/ By Vlad Savov Jan 28 2015 http://www.theverge.com/2015/1/28/7927077/berkeley-edible-education-lecture… Some of the world's preeminent food policy thinkers and researchers are taking part in a new Edible Education lecture series at UC Berkeley this spring semester, and their lectures are being made available to stream online. Starting this Monday with an introductory note from Michael Pollan (video above, jump to the 9-minute mark to skip the preamble), the series will be updated weekly with contributions from Marion Nestle, Eric Schlosser, and Raj Patel. You can stream those live on the day itself and participate in a Q&A on Twitter and Facebook, or you can just pick up the video on YouTube later on. The decisions made when setting food policy, argues Pollan, have broader consequences than most of us imagine. "Eating is, among other things, an ecological act," he says, before detailing some of the more devitalizing impacts of high-volume agriculture on our environment and ecology. He also echoes the words of New York Times writer Mark Bittman, another participant in this Edible Education initiative, in asking for more political attention to be granted to the centrality of food to so many issues: "These are all related: You can’t address climate change without fixing agriculture, you can’t fix health without improving diet, you can’t improve diet without addressing income, and so on. The production, marketing and consumption of food is key to nearly everything." The series will run all the way through the end of April, with the final few lectures looking into ideas for a more sustainable food system that can serve the planet's population without sapping its resources as aggressively as the current one.

Re: [sudo-discuss] Stealing Shit Policy

by Jake

thanks Null (whoever that is) for bringing this up and suggesting good pointers on how we should deal with such situations. I agree with Patrik that it's important for someone to take a picture, when someone makes enough of a problem that it takes multiple people to deal with them, a photograph is essential for two reasons: 1. it allows us to share with each other the knowledge about a problem person in case they come back (expecting no one will remember them) 2. it lets them know that we will not forget who they are, and that they should forget about us and never come back. I must stress that #2 is the most important aspect of this, because ultimately our goal should be for problem people to go away and never come back. Ideally they will tell their friends "don't bother, those people are not the victims we believed them to be" or a paraphrase of that. in particular, read the story of "Thief" from the noisebridge 86 wiki: https://noisebridge.net/wiki/86 "This guy went into the back classroom and took Rayc's wallet out of his backpack. Rayc saw him with the wallet in his hand and the guy tried to say it was his. He then started running towards the door and was tackled by Jake. We made him show us that nothing was in his pockets, and he kept avoiding the big pocket in the front of his jacket. This pocket turned out to have Sasha's smart phone. During the search his crack pipe fell onto the floor and broke into many pieces. We let him go and told him not to come back." It took several people holding onto him to keep him from exiting down the stairwell with people's property. He really wanted to leave but he did not hit or strike anyone at any time, which is why we let him go after searching him and getting the stolen items back. When there is no photograph, it's basically impossible to prevent a person from coming back whenever they want unless there is a person there who will recognize them. We can't be playing cat and mouse with people who want to take advantage of us. -jake

Anyone know folks @ the Audium in SF?

by David Keenan

I'm trying to arrange a talk and audio presentation in mid-Feb by David Monacchi, a Professor of Electroacoustic Music at the Conservatory of Pesaro, Italy who has spent years performing 3D audio recordings of the rainforest. Playback of these amazing recordings requires super-specialized rooms and sound setups and the Audium <http://www.audium.org/index.html> in SF is about the only place I can think might be able to do it. I sent them an email but I'm hoping someone in our community might have a way to contact them, since if this event is going to happen, its coming up fast. Does anybody know anybody at Audium? David

SF Resistor #2 & other unfortunate events (NOT SPAM!)

by Tony Longshanks LeTigre

I hope everyone won't mind this unsolicited zinetic outburst. I simply cannot contain myself. The second issue of my zine is now online at http://resistor.spaz.org! <http://resistor.spaz.org> Click the PDF directory. You will find reading & printing PDFs for both issues of SF Resistor so far. The second issue was actually finished just before Christmas as scheduled, but it's taken me this long to figure out FTP for the first time & get the files up without an internet-connectable laptop of my own. If you are just reading the zine online, select the read.pdfs for each issue. SFR2 appears green because it's printed on green paper. I am heading north in a couple months but plan to produce two more issues of SFR before leaving. I'm already at work on the 3rd one. Each issue will be printed on different color paper. Then I will collect the zine quadrilogy & dispense copies to excellent people. That will happen in mid-March/early April. Instructions for printing are on page 3 of SFR2, & will soon be up on the site in a README file. The site will be developed into a blog (ArcTangent (x) is the name) but is just a seedling file tree a t m. And for anyone who saw one of the crappy first-run print copies of SFR2, the PDF file write snafu has been corrected (it turned out to be a simple directory name error on my part) so I have print copies that look good & are fully legible now. I'm bringing some to the OMNI bookstore this weekend. (My second visit to the new Sudospace.) I would like to help develop the SR zine & teach people how to make zines, do layout both digitally & by hand, etc. Also I am helping my friend, a person known to many, start a combination printshop+cafe in the east bay soon. The need is definitely there. I've been doing my printing at the public library & the print stations there are always packed to the max. I've started giving impromptu tutoring sessions to puzzled library patrons, since I often seem to know more about this stuff than the staff. *SF Resistor #2* *December 2014* *List of Contents* Page 1: Intro / District Zero / Freeks Page 2: Feedback (reader letters) Page 3: Printing, layout & design info Page 4: My Many SF Squats (3 Years of Exhilarating Chaos!)

The Indiebox Project - Web apps that you control

by Dan Krol

Hello, I wanted to tell you about a project called IndieBox: indieboxproject.org/ and to see if there was interest in having its creator come in for a talk and demo. In fact, I'm pretty sure I initially heard of this thing on the Sudoroom mailing list a while ago. The goal is to create a box for consumers to easily be able to run their own web apps locally on computers they physically control, so they truly control their data. The software component is a distribution based on Arch Linux called UBOS. It easily manages web apps as packages, the same way most distros package desktop apps. Did you ever consider how easy it is to install LibreOffice, but how you can't really do that with WordPress and OwnCloud side by side? You have to fiddle with database provision and Apache configs. Well, UBOS handles all of that, as well as concurrent installations for multiple users, upgrades and backups, and it even has a testing framework to make sure upgrades work smoothly. I've seen a couple presentations now at the Hacker Dojo by the guy running the project, whose name is Johannes Ernst. I figured that there would be more interest in a place like Sudo Room for a project like this. I have been an occasional visitor to the Sudo Room, not sure if people remember me. However, Johannes doesn't have any connections to Sudo Room, so he asked if I could reach out to you folks to see if you were interested in having him come in to do a presentation. This may be of particular interest to the Mesh project people, since they are working on local apps. I also told Johannes to check out PeoplesOpen. So, I can post it in that group if people think it's more appropriate, to try to make it part of a SudoMesh meeting. However I thought that the general theme of independences from large companies would resonate would the larger group, so I wanted to post it here first to see what people thought. -Dan

Free lockers available! They are the 1ft square lockers I've been looking for; one set of 15 lockers, and one set of 20.

Rides from Berkeley?

by pansophia

Hi there- I am interested in participating in some Sudo Room projects - particularly Mesh, but perhaps others. My problem is I am mobility impaired in multiple ways: a connective tissue disorder that causes artheriosclerosis, arthritis, peripheral neuropathy, a tremor- I hope you get the picture that though I don't use a wheelchair, even walking the few blocks from MacArthur Bart is a trial for me. Also I'm extemely slow! I was wondering if anyone drives from the Ashby Bart area of Berkeley and might be willing to give me a ride? I tried volunteering via email but I get the feeling "out of sight out of mind". Apart from my physical issues, I'm quite capable and would like to find something interesting to do with my skills. ~Elisa

Stealing Shit Policy

by null null null

We've got a lot of big items scheduled for next week's meeting, and it'd be helpful to start talking about them now so that the meeting itself can be as fruitful as possible without stretching on into midnight. One of the bigger items is the "Stealing Shit Policy," which would outline an appropriate response to theft in the space. It might be worth extending this into something more like the "Confrontation Response Policy," so that it could address other situations in which someone is threatening the space or its membership, whether they're drunkenly destroying items or verbally accosting people. I spoke with several people about how we could deal with these situations without calling the police or violating our safe space agreements <https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Safe_space>. Most of us were at a loss, but Ryan had some good initial suggestions. I've outlined them below as best I recall: - If someone is trying to leave the space with a stolen item, call all hands on deck and block the entrances until they've relinquished it. - If someone is harassing people or damaging the space, ask them to leave. If they refuse to leave, then call all hands on deck and form a human net around them. Without touching them, guide them out the door. - Only if someone is physically violent do we respond with physical force. These responses would be absolute last resorts, and hopefully we would never need to employ them. Still, even if we tighten down our entrance policies, we should be ready to respond to people who are abusing the space and its membership. This way, we'll be prepared to respond in a way that's aligned with our values. Are there other ideas about how to deal with these types of situations? I've reached out to some radical spaces back in Austin to see how they would respond. If there are other spaces in town that might have some perspective or techniques, it'd be great to hear from them too. -null

If you are just reading the zine online, select the read.pdfs for each issue. SFR2 appears green because it's printed on green paper. I am heading north in a couple months but plan to produce two more issues of SFR before leaving. I'm already at work on the 3rd one. Each issue will be printed on different color paper. Then I will collect the zine quadrilogy & dispense copies to excellent people. That will happen in mid-March/early April. Instructions for printing are on page 3 of SFR2, & will soon be up on the site in a README file. The site will be developed into a blog (ArcTangent (x) is the name) but is just a seedling file tree a t m. And for anyone who saw one of the crappy first-run print copies of SFR2, the PDF file write snafu has been corrected (it turned out to be a simple directory name error on my part) so I have print copies? that look good & are fully legible now. I'm bringing some to the OMNI bookstore this weekend. (My second visit to the new Sudospace.) I would like to help develop the SR zine & teach people how to make zines, do layout both digitally & by hand, etc. Also I am helping my friend, a person known to many, start a combination printshop+cafe in the east bay soon. The need is definitely there. I've been doing my printing at the public library & the print stations there are always packed to the max.

kapton tape for 3D printer

by tom wang

Hello Guys, Do we have a thicker kapton tape for 3D printer printing bed? Something like >5" to cover the entire print bed with one shot. If we don't, would anyone be welling to pitch in with me for something like this <http://www.amazon.com/Mil-Kapton-Tape-Polyimide-yds/dp/B00CU3TB6O/ref=sr_1_…>? I really don't need 36 yard of kapton tape in my life time. Thanks -- ----- Tom Wang Ideation and Creativity Officer Voltset The content of this message is confidential.

Newbie Night Topics

by null null null

These last few weeks, we've been getting a lot of people for newbie night. It's a great way to introduce folks to the space, though the way I've been conducting the night, it's mostly just been an architectural tour. This is the ballroom, this is the community printing press, this is where the dumpstered croissants live. Unfortunately, this only prepares people to navigate the space; not to be excellent sudoers. So I want to open this up and ask, what else should newbie night cover? Some important ones: - our values - our history - our safe space agreements Is there anything else we feel should be added? -null

They imply a radically different way of thanking than the status quo outside our walls, where people tend to only care about themselves and think "other peoples' problems are not my problems". Which is GREAT but also raises the ante for all of us. I think this is one of the most important things we should be getting across when acculturating new people to our space - sharing isn't just about software and tools. We share responsibility for the space and for each other.

asked to leave

by Jake

Today a person who is suspected of having stolen something from Adam on January 3rd at 3:40PM was in the space. I had talked with Adam about it before, and I knew the story. Adam pointed out that the person was back. He was at the table in sudoroom using his computer. I gathered some people and we asked this person to leave until or unless they come back to a meeting, which we explained is at 7PM on wednesdays. I'm not sure if this discuss list is the venue for listing reasons to believe this person stole something, and i'm not naming them here at this point. This person said they do not know yet if they will attend the meeting. They said they would contact me via IRC if they plan to attend the meeting. If they do so, I will let everyone know so we can meet up and talk about it. thank you -jake

Remington full upright piano (that used to be a nuematically controlled player piano)

by Cere Mona Davis

Hiya folks, Art in North Berkeley (cc'd here) is offering a really in-tune full upright piano. The key action is totally solid (full spring back on every key). He has a truck to transport the piano in but we need to provide the muscle. I figure we would need at least 4 strong (and tall doesn't hurt) people to move this thing. It's kind of an amazing piano in that is used to be a player piano that was controlled via a bellows system and air tubes. I view this kind of piano as being imminently (and very interestingly) hackable in a way that very few pianos are and I really really think we should bring it into Omni! I made a short video of this piano here: http://youtu.be/AaFc4yRctZQ Demonstrating some of the unusual portals and controls that can be used on this piano. Art lives in N. Berkeley closeish to the N. Berkeley Bart so some of us to help to move this piano by barting then walking to his house. He would like to try and move this tomorrow or saturday. Also there is a very large bookshelf (or storage shelf) that we will likely want to grab for sudo or CCL. -Cere -- Best Regards, Cere Davis ceremona(a)gmail.com ------------------- GPG Key: http://taffy.findpage.com/~cere/pubkey.asc GPG fingerprint (ID# 73FCA9E6) : F5C7 627B ECBE C735 117B 2278 9A95 4C88 73FC A9E6

Thriving by what standards? Sudoroom's values go against many of the dominant trends in hackerspaces, so in this and many other cases we might find ourselves making our own way. :) That said, I support having a lockable door. It's not about being strict, it's about having options. Members who are in the space should have the choice to decide whether they want to do the heavy lifting of holding a radically open space, or whether they just don't have the spoons for it. I think this is a great balance between all of our community's needs and values. I think most of the day we'll find ourselves in the former situation. And it's not that radical a change for Sudoroom, it's pretty much exactly how things were during our formative years at 2141 - the door could be (and often was) locked at any time.

Crypto Class Study Group

by Garrett Robinson

Hey Sudo! Yet another session of the excellent Coursera Crypto course has started as of today! [0] If you are interested in learning more about cryptography, this is a great place to start. Additionally, I and some others are interested in starting a weekly study group to discuss the course material and help each other with the assignments. We were thinking Sudo Room would be a good place to host it! So this email is meant to: 1. Gauge interest in such a study group from the sudo community 2. Make sure it's ok to host something like this at Sudo Is there anything we should do to host this at sudo in the most positive way possible for the space and community?

I could drive some muscle over there in my car as well. Would we put this in the ballroom? The existing ballroom piano is getting really sad and out of tune, I think because it keeps being moved around. I would love to know any ideas people have for keeping the pianos open-access and reconfigurable, but also not a total maintenance nightmare. Also, I would really like to fix the existing one but don't know where to start. If anybody out there knows how to fix and tune pianos, and would like to exchange knowledge or learn alongside me, please let me know! :D

Re: [sudo-discuss] [omni-discuss] Donation box at CCL raided

Coming to the conclusion that sudoers should actively try and keep a better awareness of their surroundings, including CCL. I know I often let CCL just be at the boundary of my awareness and have no idea who's in the space, although it would be easy for me to know.

Sudoroom has many long-standing policies for this. First, any Sudoroom member is empowered to ask a non-member to leave at any time. Second, when a person's presence makes someone else feel unsafe, we ask them to leave and not return until the end of a conflict resolution process (if they want one). The process involves a mediator and steward having private meetings and then reporting back afterwards. Facts and arguments are not hashed out at a public meeting unless the process has failed spectacularly. We've never had to do that. Sudoroom values fairness, but we have always prioritized safety over fairness. WRT Elliot, I haven't been around enough lately to know, but it sounds like we've kicked out many strangers for less and never thought twice. It's so much easier to be lenient with a familiar face, but that's not "fair"...
