Whoever dropped off this gigantic scanner/copier/printer thing in Sudoroom, with no toner
cartridges, please take it back. We don't want it and neither does anyone on
craigslist (see my post below)
https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/zip/d/oakland-samsung-clx-fw-color-printer…
The Ewaste place doesn't take printers either although we can try i guess.

Okay, I was checking because in the past Cam Life has canceled events and spots have opened up, for example September 10th, so you never know, events do fall through, which is understandable.
Yes, let’s check in with them and make sure they have the right idea of where we are 3 days is a lot, if they’d be willing to shorten it or start earlier in the week to have their 3 days that would work too.
Sincerely,
Marquise Rosier

Hey Sudoers!
Tonight, in lieu of a formal meeting we're going to be tricking out bikes
with LEDs. If you've got Sudo Room business to discuss, drop in in person
or in the video screen. We'll be tricking out bikes, starting at 5.
Event details:
*WHAT*: Sudoroom’s Bike Mutation Station - Light Up Your Ride
*WHEN*; Weds Sep 7 2022 from 5PM-11PM
*WHERE*: Omni Commons, 4799 Shattuck Ave., Oakland, CA 94609
*HOW*: Bring your bike and any parts / lights you may already have.
COST: Free, although donations to the Omni Commons gofundme are gladly
accepted: https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-the-omni
Wanna trick out your bike with LED lights for the Friday Sept. 9 ride?
Sudoroom Hackerspace (at Omni Commons) is having an LED lighting workshop in
time for the next Bike Party!
Bring your bike, your curiosity and your enthusiasm to Omni Common’s Bike
Mutation Station, and we’ll help you get your bike lighting super snazzy for
the ride: we’ve got helpers, workspace, soldering and hot glue, and surplus
LED
tape and strings that we can help help you attach to your bike.
If you’re got spare LED light strings or tape, even broken ones or
“scraps”, or
even just simple bike safety lights you want to fix or install, bring them
to
the event to use or to share!
This is a family-friendly activity, biking families are heartily invited.
our goal for this event is to pull lots more people into the Omni and
sudoroom
to grow our community! and we're going to have to put in a bunch of work to
make it happen but i think it will be fun

Hi!
I'll be at sudo room tonight at 8 pm hacking on an open hardware/software
brain replacement for old HPLC UV/vis spectrometers:
https://gitlab.com/juul/spectrometer-resurrector
If you have any interest in this project, come hang out and chat/hack with
me!
This project can especially benefit from the help of anyone with interest
or experience in microbiology, spectrometry, microcontroller programming,
web development or digital/analog electronics, but of course everyone is
welcome to join in regardless of experience or skill level!
This project is currently funded by a micro grant from GOSH:
https://openhardware.science/
and I am obligated to mention that GOSH got the funds for this from the
Alfred P. Sloan Foundation

Hello Sudo Room Team
My name is Vidit Jain, and I am currently a high school senior. Me and my
team are organizing a hackathon called Unite Hacks in San Francisco,
California, and we are partnered with Hack Club <https://hackclub.com/>.
Our team consists of 6 brilliant individuals out of whom 4 are seniors at
high school and the other two are in college. We have organized some
virtual hackathons, such as Vivid Hacks <https://www.vividhacks.tech/>, and
participated in numerous hackathons, such as Assemble
<https://assemble.hackclub.com/launch>, which was also hosted by Hack Club.
However, this fall, we are inspired to host an in-person event.
Unite Hacks will bring together 60-100 high school hackers from around the
globe for a three-day mystical hackathon in San Francisco. Our goal is to
introduce students of ages 14-19 to a wide range of possibilities to create
something larger for their community with tech and code. Our 48-hour
in-person hackathon will connect students from across the world to utilize
technology and code (Of all kinds!) to create, innovate, and turn their
visions into a reality! Our projected date for the event is October 21 and
it’s expected to run for 3 days (10/21 - 10/23).
Unite Hacks needs a home in San Francisco and we were wondering if Sudo
Room could host us for a weekend (Friday 6:00 pm to 12:30 pm on Sunday) on
October 21.
We are also open for a 2 day event if that is something which can be made
possible.
We’d love the opportunity to connect and answer any questions that you may
have either through email or a call (phone or zoom). We believe that
sponsoring our event will be mutually beneficial and will not only give you
the opportunity to help us meet our goal of furthering learning, but also
to help students build impactful solutions.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out and we'd be more
than happy to clear any doubts!

Note: Our website is still in the works and will be completed by this week
Thanks

Hey Zach,
Really great to see your post! I posted a similar query to survey interest
in collaboration on ecological minded projects via the sudoroom
list, though it's not clear to me that it went through. I am also really
interested in just collecting people interested in ecological projects
which have an ecological focus without restricting what the kinds of
project participation will look like. The tasks you suggest already make
sense to me.
Hoping this email goes through to the sudo list (cc'ed here) as well. We
should start collecting inaturalist data en masse on birds now, since they
are next up to show up dead on the food chain. Pinnipeds might be next.

About a week ago there was an incident where Tom (Is he even a Sudo
member?) was has hanging out at Sudo room. Tom is coughing a lot all over
the place, he wears a mask but most of the time I see it dangling
around his neck. I have spoken to him in the past about this.
He props the door open to let himself in and out.
Dane came to CCL and spoke to me about Tom and his coughing. I went over
to Sudo with Dane and we asked Tom to go get medical attention and not to
come into the Omni coughing like that. Tom's response showed that he
really didn't give a fuck about our concerns for the health of the Omni
community. He continued with his internet activities and didn't leave.
3 days later I got sick and found that I had been infected with the COVID
SARS virus.
Of course I don't know where I got infected but I have had very little
contact with people outside of the Omni.
I would recommend Omni ban Tom permanently for not considering the health
and welfare of the Omni community. People have been banned from the Omni
for less reason than this.
CCL has a set of rules which would prohibit anyone to behave like Tom in
CCL space. We are set up to record temperatures, have people sign in and
state they have no symptoms, etc. Jake you need to not talk any more about
taking the lock off the door. It is in place for multiple reasons and this
is just one. Make the situation better for the community, not worse. I
don't want to have any more discussion, I'm busy healing up.
Just a heads up I got the IG account info with Andrew and started posting
stuff today! So make sure to follow the account if you're into that kind of
social media
https://www.instagram.com/sudo.room/
I'll at least try to post about omni commons fundraiser very often.
If anyone got the Twitter account info I can do that too

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 that EVERYONE MUST
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:
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!
