For some reason the computer connected to the big screen in sudoroom (the Jitsi telepresence portal) is not answering ping, does anyone know if something happened to it? -jake

Hardware and softWEAR* Hacking Tuesday is tonight

by Jake

Hi everyone, You're getting this email either because 1) you're on the sudoroom discuss email list, or 2) because I BCC'd you directly. Tonight I'll be hosting Sudoroom for those who want to come hack on whatever, in person, or through telepresence (see the last link in this email) ALSO NOW FEATURING: SoftWEAR hacking too: most Tuesday evenings the sewing area at Omni Commons (in the basement) is also active so bring your fabric and textile projects and technical repairs; we've got heavy duty and serger sewing machines available. You're also welcome to bring your own machine to have it checked out and tuned up for tip-top operation or to just sew alongside others. Remember that Omni Commons and Sudoroom policy is presently still that EVERYONE SHOULD WEAR A MASK AT ALL TIMES INSIDE THE BUILDING (if you want to eat something you should go outside) in the past few weeks, we've had about 5-15 people over the course of the evening, not including remote participants who logged in through telepresence Jenny put it on the Omni calendar: https://omnicommons.org/blog/events/hardware-hack-night-3-2022-03-01/ Here it is on the sudoroom page: https://sudoroom.org/events/hardware-hack-night-2022-02-15/ that says 7PM but I try to be there earlier. if you get to the door (at the corner of 48th and shattuck) and you can't get in, call me or someone else who's there to let you in! Email me if you don't have my phone number. Actually a great way to get our attention is to join the video chat link at the end of this email! We don't always hear the doorbell and I don't answer it anyway! You should get on this sudoroom discuss mailinglist! click here: https://sudoroom.org/lists/postorius/lists/sudo-discuss.sudoroom.org/ and you should donate monthly to sudoroom, monthly, by signing up here: https://sudoroom.org/humans and if you want to make a one-time donation, you can go here: https://sudoroom.org/donate if you can't make it in person: join the jitsi videochat with the room, and chat with each other as well as a giant TV screen/speakerphone on the wall: (not working right now but should be fixed tonight) https://meet.waag.org/turtlesturtlesturtles (don't worry if you're the only one in the "room", others will join eventually, and if the camera is pointed at the floor, just yell until someone comes and talks to you and then ask them to aim it back up into the room) see you soon! -jake

More secure wifi at omni

by Yardena Cohen

We've gotten many complaints recently about omni's wifi being totally open and not password protected. Many folks are afraid of their devices being attacked if they join our network. And tbh I don't blame them. I think we should offer a wpa-protected network for those who want one. But I don't have the capacity to work on that. Does it sound fun to anybody else? We used to have a private subnet which would have made this easier, but it got unceremoniously merged with the public one a few years ago. One useful side task would be to identify and label all the ethernet cables running out of our one remaining switch. Some of them could provide the backbone of a new network.

Rollerskate and skate event in February 2023

by Romy Ilano

I’ve been collaborating with some cool women on a two day rollerskate and skateboard ball event with classes at the Omni commons. It was going to be in November to help raise money for the Omni by the deadline but people had family commitments However I think this is genuinely true energy and creativity that will pull in a lot of other projects at the Omni such as the media lab (costumes for the ball,m) and interesting SudoRoom Workshop stuff like helping make skate obstacles or rigging the ones they will bring They also will be spending a day after teaching skate classss (they have taught all over the world) Is there a way to put this event into any loan proposals ? I think this would breathe fresh life into the Omni, get more of a physical event in the space . We were able to figure out where to skate and jot hurt the ballroom floor Sent from my iPhone

Printer

by Juliana A

Is there any printer at sudo room that is ready to use? (AKA, it works, has ink on it and whatever else needed to print something) I'd like to print some flyers for WNB coding night. Doesn’t need to be colored ink or anything fancy. I found this printer but it says no ink -- julianaferreira(a)gmail.com she/her -- julianaferreira(a)gmail.com she/her

[omni-consensus] PROPOSAL: EBDSA in den (fwd)

by Jake

Sudoroom, we need to form a position on this proposal! Omni wants to invite East Bay Democratic Socialists of America to rent the upstairs room that's getting built. I think this is a no-brainer and we should approve it! Please write back indicating your position on this! your delegate to the Omni Commons, -jake ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 12 Oct 2022 18:10:52 -0700 From: Yardena Cohen To: consensus <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org> Subject: [omni-consensus] PROPOSAL: EBDSA in den We talked a lot last week about putting EBDSA in the upstairs den, but never formally proposed it, so here it is. I propose we put EBDSA in the new room we're building up there. After haggling with Max on the phone just now, it sounds like this is the most do-able agreement: * they'll pay $1250/month with first/last/deposit * they move in november 1 or whenever the wall is finished * they sign a year lease, with the understanding that if omni loses the building, it'll probably be unenforcable * we host their next two GM assemblies for free (Nov 13 & Feb 12) and then renegotiate in the spring whether to start charging for it again * they are not yet applying to be a member collective, but may want to in the future Thoughts? Can we decide next week? Next delegate meeting is Thu Oct 20th 7-9pm https://meet.google.com/diw-hszw-msr _______________________________________________ consensus mailing list consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/consensus
