Hi friends,
Writing to invite you all to a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on Sunday, December
14 in San Francisco.
Join volunteers from the Electronic Frontier Foundation
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Frontier_Foundation>, Creative
Commons <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Commons>, and the Bay
Area Wikipedia community to write and edit about human rights and free
speech online. We will improve, create, and update Wikipedia articles
related to global internet censorship. People regularly turn to
Wikipedia to get a basic overview of internet censorship, so it's
crucial that we ensure Wikipedia's coverage is up-to-date and accurate.
I'm a co-organizer and will be driving from the East Bay to participate,
if anyone wants a ride! Let me know if you have any questions or want a
lift.
# *Date*: December 14, 2014
# *Time*: 1-5pm
# *Location*: Electronic Frontier Foundation
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Frontier_Foundation> office
(815 Eddy Street, San Francisco, CA 94109)
# *Link:
*https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/San_Francisco/Internet_Censorship
Edit-a-thons are actually really fun. You end up learning a ton, become
a stronger writer, and produce articles that will be read by millions.
This is also a great way to learn more about Wikipedia.
Wikipedia entries on Internet censorship are thin, particularly about
regions where censorship is most problematic, since users in those areas
are often restricted from editing. Internet censorship impacts users
everywhere, because fewer people are able to upload or contribute to the
Internet or access information online, making our digital commons less
robust and less diverse.
As someone who has helped with a lot of individual case advocacy, let me
tell you all that this is one of the best ways to help raise awareness
about international issues, where we often have little influence. Often
for long standing cases of injustice, a good Wikipedia presence raises
awareness more than most any news article.
Here's a link to an edit-a-thon we did earlier this year to raise
awareness about imprisoned journalists in Ethiopia:

censorship worldwide. Learn and raise awareness!

The march is supposed to gather at 2pm at Oscar Grant, and they'll start
moving to the Court House at 2.30pm. Did Francisco mean 1.30?

I would like them to be on our side too, and I think "our side" must
unequivocably be the side of prioritizing human needs over property
values.
Hi,
I've been going back and forth with the BID regarding a lotta things
(prompted by the massive hike in our BID tax) and the external appearance
of the building believe it or not is a big issue with regards a perception
of how neighbor-friendly we are.
Great strides have been made visavis debris and garbage ending up outside,
and that is great. However, the newly-longer line of chairs chained up
outside the building, while useful of course, frankly is starting to look
too janky and an eyesore at this point.
In order to improve somewhat the outside appearance of our building and the
perception of neighbors, I would like to cut down on the number of outside
chairs. Basically, I think we should remove all but the bench and the
bare-metal chairs. IE, I think all the new white chairs should be removed.
It's just too much.
In addition, by the way, technically we do not have permission from the
city to put any seating outside. I've looked at our property line and its
not clear actually that it extends a few feet from the building. Even if it
did, there is an easement with the city's sidewalk that means they have
control over it.
I appreciate the doocratic effort to provide more outside seating, but can
we please remove these extra white chairs? Its overkill imo.
Thank yoooo

Hey y'all!
So far I've only had 2 people officially confirm with me that they want
space to sell things on Saturday.
If you are planning to participate in our little Holiday Bazaar, please
just shoot me an email so that I know how many people I need to set up for!
If you have folding tables or saw horses that could be used as table bases,
please bring them as we only have a couple of folding tables at the Omni.
Also - feel free to come by early to help me set up :)

The Internet is great because it belongs to all of us equally. It's a level
playing field -- whether you want to promote your music, apply for a job,
play a game or start a business. But that could soon change.
The web as we know it today is founded on the principle of *'Net Neutrality*:'
The idea that "content" should be given the same priority no matter who
it's coming from and who it's going to. Policymakers in the U.S. are
currently considering whether or not to adopt rules that protect Net
Neutrality. Millions of people asked them to. Even President Obama (
http://www.whitehouse.gov/net-neutrality).
*Come learn more about your digital rights and what Net Neutrality means
for you – and actions you can take!*

We need a process for making this decision in the future. Whose call is it?
We also need a lot of hands on deck Sunday, so come then if we don't have

Hi all!
First, the good news: The one big-ish leak in the concrete room aka Sudo
Room at 4799 appears to have been totally fixed. It appears to have been
fixed by Rick who took photos of what he did to fix it and I uploaded them
to a public Google Drive for our reference here:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0ByjR12L1MEjCU3hqeEhCSS03MXM&usp=sha…
Second, the bad news: New leaks in the skylight in the middle of the room
immediately south of the one that was just fixed (above sudo's area, now).
These new leaks are not as bad as the previous one.
There are two main spots in that skylight that are leaking:
- the main leak in this particular skylight is along the west edge of the
skylight, just as with the one that was leaking before.
- a secondary leak is coming from under the vent that is in this skylight.
Both spots have been marked on the floor with new 'X's in blue painters'
tape. Please leave those x's there until the leaks have been addressed
(fwiw though the old 'x' in the CCL area can be removed now.)
The landlord, the roofer, and the skylight guy have been notified. Skylight
guy came by today to take a look also and I showed him.
It would seem that a similar fix to this other skylight would take care of
its main leak. The secondary leak under the vent in this skylight could
perhaps possibly be abated by closing the vent.. somehow, since it is so
high up we are not entirely sure how to do this. But, none of the other
skylight vents (that are also open) are leaking so far, so we're not sure
what it is about this one vent that is leaking. Hm.
I did not find any other leaks in the building so far aside from this one,
so that's good. As always, let the list know if anyone finds a new leak!
Best,
David

for a two-row deep circle of seating around the big open floor.
this is the page for the circuitboard to make the vending machine

i have placed all the parts on the circuitboard layout, but someone still

Hi all,
Some Noisebridgers came by sudo's meeting tonight and informed us that Sid
Scott, whom they banned from Noisebridge, is back in town and attempted to
re-enter Noisebridge today.
Sudo Room has a reciprocal ban agreement with Noisebridge. Do not let him
in, and please contact me if you'd like more information.
Here is his photo: https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/File:Sid_20140222.jpeg

I have acquired two Canon SD600 digital cameras for a bookscanner for
sudoroom.
these cameras are good for a bookscanner because they can run chdk and
thus be set to operate very cooperatively with a bookscanner. plus they
are good cameras.
the reason there are two is because a good bookscanner photographs both
left and right pages at the same time. The user flips the page, lowers
the glass panels (which flatten the pages) and presses a single shutter
button.
if anyone here wants to make a bookscanner, and someone is willing to
bottomline the project (not me) i will hand over the cameras.

Dear all,
What will the Omni do in response and in support of the BlackLivesMatter
movement? I've had a few conversations around this question the over the
last couple weeks and I imagine others have as well.
This coming Sunday (Dec. 14th), we'll be hosting Catalyst Project
<http://collectiveliberation.org/> in the Ballroom for an event titled
"Black Liberation and White Anti-Racism in the Time of Ferguson." They've
sent out an invite
<http://us1.campaign-archive1.com/?u=2867d847f3&id=072f757718> to the
public and through their own networks, which has been viewed by more than
23,000 people. Over the past week I've met people who've been receiving
flyers to the event during the marches through Berkeley and Oakland, which
leads me to believe there will be *a lot* of people here, a lot of *new* people
from our wider community.
I'm helping to bottom-line this event and could really use your help!
1. Reply to this thread if you are down to help steward our space and
include your phone # (if you feel comfortable, send privately, etc.) as I
want to be certain we are able to generously host all the folks in our
community who will be coming to our space to respond to recent events
2. They'd like amplified sound and I'm not 100% certain what our current
situation is - where is our sound system? do we have one adequate for this
event? and can someone volunteer to run sound?
3. What has been the latest count of chairs at the Omni? do we need to get
more chairs?
with love

Hey Sudoers,
I just wanted to make sure you are aware that Backspace has officially put
forward our proposal for membership at the omni. If you have any questions
about the proposal please feel free to ask me or Margaretha.
You can read the full proposal here:

I've also attached it.

I think we should put a permanent sign on the entry door that says "Bikes
left outside may be stolen. Cars parked nearby may have windows broken."
does anyone object?

missing a head (since acquired) and I think the unit is complete.
I've never powered it up but, other than some very minor wiring issues
on the z axis (can be operated manually), I believe its complete and

hi again,
i'd like to sit down with our visionary pro-bono lawyer later this week or early next week.
consider this a thread to start collecting questions, which I'll sift through and ask.
could someone who helped get the last leg of the state taxes out the door mind dropping me a line to recapitulate where we are in that process?

anyone need/want 30 or so small and book boxes from uhaul?
already broken down, good for sign making and heavy things carrying. two activities i've done with frequency at sudo.

Thanks Jenny! I helped take apart her beds today; she was very gracious
and grateful... she just needs a few pairs of hands to complete the job
tomorrow morning to move a few heavy things she can't do on her own. Added
a few folks here who I heard are nearby in case they have time to help.
Should probably be a 30-45 minute job.

December 10th 2014 is Bassel Khartabil's 1000th day in prison in Syria.
A self taught programmer and open source enthusiast, he started a hacker
space in Damascus and helped to found Creative Commons Syria. He was
working to empower his community in Syria through the ethos of the open
community and making culture, and in light of this, was arrested.
We are holding a letter-writing event for Bassel to mark his 1000th day,
call for his release, show our support, and keep his story alive.
Are you out of practice with writing letters? Don't worry, we can help.
In addition to helping you brainstorm, we'll have pre-written letters to
sign, as well as templates to get you started if you need. All are
welcome to drop in for any portion of the event.
We'll provide envelopes, postage stamps, pens and paper, food and
beverages, although you are welcome to bring any of these items to share!
**Please bring a laptop if you prefer to type your letters**
Event details::
Place: Noisebridge Hackatorium (the tables in the main space)
Date: Wednesday 10 December
Time: 6-9 pm

Orange road bike stolen outside of omni - says falcon on it. Has a basket and white handlebar tape. If anyone sees it, plz let me know, it is my friend's bike!
My number is 6096513306
$99:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dv…
Plugging directly into a 'normal' DVI adapter ie single-link DVI will not
support the display's native resolution of 2560x1600. Single-link adapters
will instead deliver a maximum of half the supported resolution, 1280x800.
Single-link adapters include the typical Apple-style DVI>MiniDP adapter
dongle most are used to using.. See:
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201927
So if anyone feels like giving the video group a christmas present of this
pricey adapter cable, that'd be really great! It would be kept with the
monitor.

The amazing human Erik Strals, of Immersio, 3D-scanned the ballroom & Sudo
the other night.
It took him quite a long time and was a labor of love. The results are in
and they are SO cool.
I love this human!
He even offered to come back and help do more of the building! yay! Yippee!
This will be so useful for our architectural / permit work especially too!
So great -
Thank you Eriks!!

Hi fellow sudoers,
We'll be hosting a private event for members of the Real Vegan Cheese team
and some of our IndieGogo donors in CCL this evening, starting at 7pm.
We'll be doing a tasting of some existing vegan cheeses (the nut and
soy-based varieties). I would prefer not to have random walk-ins during the
event, but I expect there may be some leftover cheeses and beers to taste
afterwards.
Thanks!
Patrik

It would take some work to get me to trust a scheme like this... and

The landlord had a video surveillance system, so it was moot.

Yes, securing their books after-hours.
I visited the Bogotá hackerspace, Hackbo, a month or so ago, and chatted to
them a bit about how the space is working. It's a really nice hackerspace
-- in a residential block, but with four or so big well-equipped rooms, and
with a really busy community, and whiteboards full of really detailed
ongoing projects, which I sort of feel is the real metric of a great
hackerspace.
One of the projects that has shifting from being a prototype to being a
potential full-time work for a bunch of the key hackers is this:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hpsaturn/lumera-transform-your-camera-…
It's a linux-based plugin for Digital SLR cameras (if you don't see your
camera listed, ask, because they're adding them as they go) that gives you
bluetooth LE remote operation, background transfer to online picture
services via your phone or wifi. The hardware will be openhardware, the
code is FLOSS. The device is going to sell for $150 USD ($170 canadian --
they're working with a Canadian group to do the logistics).
Anyway, I just noticed that they're 3 days to go on their kickstarter, but
still have a way to go. I don't have any financial connection with these
guys or the hackerspace, but I try to plug good hacking projects when I
can. I think this'd be a fun gadget to have if you have a DSLR and are
interested in doing some connected messing with it, either with the
existing features of Lumera or extending it.
That's all!
Feel free to forward this around to any communities you think might be
interested!

anyone have any leads on used key cutting machines for omni commons? I'm

You accidentally hit reply-all, so I'm not sure how to respond except:
1) I'm actually not particularly trusting of industry or government, sorry
2) the part where I said "it would create social pressure to accept
whatever results" feels particularly relevant to me right now
hi everyone,
just a reminder that you and all your friends are invited to the women's
variety show taking place at sudo (in the ballroom, not inside sudo itself)
tomorrow night!
it's free and starts at 7:30PM.
more details here: https://sudoroom.org/upcoming-event-womens-variety-show/
i hope to see you all!

Hi all!
We are in the last stages of preparations to launch Omni's crowdfunding
campaign next weekend, and we need your help!
Please use this thread to brainstorm on perks we could offer, keeping in
mind that *experiences* are cheaper to produce and more interesting to
donors than shwag.
* Would any sudoers be interested in co-hosting maker workshops?
* How about making robot drawings (and recording the robot drawing it)
based on SVG images people send in?
* Can anyone bottom-line making 3D printed magnets? Or 3D printed something
or others?
* Marc and I are going to be putting together hackpacks <http://hackpack.me>
that people can buy for themselves or for us to donate to a teenager.
* Maybe we could offer a 'teleconference with a hacker'?
* Anything you can think of!
Fact of the day: 85% of successful campaigns raise 1/3 of their goal in the
first 72 hours. Please prep friends in your networks now for a donation
next week!

Hi all,
I'm glad to see the JavaScript meetups resuming! While I've never been
able to attend, I like to refer people.
Is it okay if I post it on the Oakland Beginner Prorammers Support Meetup
Group (which I inherited recently)?
Cheers,
Anca.
