EFF and Creative Commons join for Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on Sunday! Come!

by April Glaser

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: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2014/10/wikipedia-edit-thon-zone-9-bloggers-g… All my best, April PS: Please share widely. Here's a link <https://twitter.com/aprilaser/status/543470086103650304> to a tweet or a sample tweet/FB post you can use: This Sunday we're editing Wikipedia to expand articles on Internet censorship worldwide. Learn and raise awareness! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/San_Francisco/Internet_Censo…

cut down on the # of outside chairs?

by David Keenan

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 d

Remaining Sudo leak

by David Keenan

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

bookscanner cameras

by Jake

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. -jake

Sunday's Ferguson Response Catalyst Project event - call for help!

by Stephen Novotny

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 st

Re: [sudo-discuss] Several bikes have been stolen from outside of the Omni

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? -jake On Tue Dec 9 Tracy Jacobs wrote: Maybe no one else drives, but I also got my window smashed last time I was parked by Omni, right next to that big storage facility.

CSAM for pick up on the peninsula if you want it: (fwd)

by Jake

interested? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2014 10:57:29 -0800 Subject: CSAM for pick up on the peninsula if you want it: John writes: "As I pick up more junk I have to get rid of old stuff. I've decided I'm going to scrap my confocal scanning acoustic microscope which I never really use. If someone is interested in it let me know within a few days. It was mostly supposed to be a holdover until I got the SEM. It was 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 functional. Beware that the granite linear stage is heavy, probably at least 200 lbs. Pictures/details here: http://siliconpr0n.org/uv/sonix_csam/ Probably free to a good home, but cash/trades also appreciated"

Re: [sudo-discuss] [omni-discuss] Can we get a pair of hands tomorrow?

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.

write a letter at Noisebridge, and help free Syrian open source coder Bassel Khartabil

by Danny O'Brien

Niki Korth of the Free Bassel campaign writes: 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 Read more about Bassel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bassel_Khartabil http://freebassel.org/campaign/

special dual-link DVI adapter needed for 30" display - help?

by David Keenan

$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. Best, David

holy shit! Erik Strals' 3D scans of ballroom & Sudo Room!

by David Keenan

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!! >From Eriks: *1)* *Here's the 3d scan viewer for the ballroom:* *https://my.matterport.com/webgl_player/#model=f2tZhjtaAQZ* <https://my.matterport.com/webgl_player/#model=f2tZhjtaAQZ> *Here's the "workshop" (where you can measure things and write comments):* *https://my.matterport.com/models/f2tZhjtaAQZ* <https://my.matterport.com/models/f2tZhjtaAQZ> *Here's Sudoroom and Counter culture labs:* *https://my.matterport.com/webgl_player/#model=9JVcHS4y7aY <https://my.matterport.com/webgl_player/#model=9JVcHS4y7aY>* *and the workshop:* *https://my.matterport.com/models/9JVcHS4y7aY <https://my.matterport.com/models/9JVcHS4y7aY>* *2) Please forward along to the groups who might be interested in seeing them!

Event in CCL tonight at 7pm.

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

Colombian hackerspace kickstarter project for DSLR hacking

by Danny O'Brien

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!

Omni Crowdfund Perks!

by Jenny Ryan

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! <3 Jenny http://jennyryan.net http://thepyre.org http://thevirtualcampfire.org http://technomadic.tumblr.com `~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~` "Technology is the campfire around which we tell our stories." -Laurie Anderson "Storytelling reveals meaning without committing the error of defining it." -Hannah Arendt "To define is to kill.

Who put Newbie Night on the calendar?

by Jenny Ryan

I'm removing it, because nobody ever shows up to host. I'll re-add it if someone can make an excellent case for why it should remain! Doocratically yours, Jenny http://jennyryan.net http://thepyre.org http://thevirtualcampfire.org http://technomadic.tumblr.com `~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~` "Technology is the campfire around which we tell our stories." -Laurie Anderson "Storytelling reveals meaning without committing the error of defining it." -Hannah Arendt "To define is to kill.
