mediawiki underline links?

by Jake

hi, does anyone know how to make it so that the wiki underlines all links? It's nearly impossible to see links without that, unless you really expect people to see the difference between black and dark blue which is ableist. I opened this file but all the things i tried did not do anything to cause links to be underlined. I think both internal and external links should be. https://sudoroom.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css

help finding pyserial for python2.7

by Jake

i know this should be really really really easy, and my google searches keep pointing me in circles suggesting that nobody else has had this problem, but i'm apparently missing something fundamental. $ python Python 2.7.18 (default, Mar 8 2021, 13:02:45) [GCC 9.3.0] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import serial Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named serial $ apt install python-serial E: Unable to locate package python-serial python3-serial is installed and "import serial" works fine in python3, but the programs for controlling the robot are made for python2 and i don't know how hard it will be to port them over: https://github.com/jerkey/yasnac/tree/master/remote $ uname -a Linux wasp 5.4.0-110-generic #124-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 14 19:46:19 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.

FM stereo receiver alignment

by Jake

what specifically is the problem you're encountering? Do you need a stereo transmitter for testing? I might have one or two.... also we have USRPs and transmitting SDRs around, so we could make a signal. Also in sudoroom there is at least one really fancy "arbitrary waveform generator" that you could use to produce a pilot tone, etc... -jake On Mon, 27 Jun 2022, Kent Leech via sudo-discuss wrote: > I’m trying to demystify FM stereo multiplex operation for a vintage Fisher > tube receiver I’m restoring.

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 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! -jake

Resin 3D printing?

by Marc Juul

Hi sudoers. I was wondering if anyone might be interested in having a 3D resin printing setup at sudo room? I'm thinking one of those ~$200 resin printers, a little wash basin and a UV exposure box. We can probably make the wash basin and UV box ourselves and maybe some of us can contribute a few bucks and split the cost of the printer? I know resin tends to stink and release questionable VOCs into the air, however: I have acquired a tabletop ductless fume hood. It functions by sucking the fumes through a carbon filter. I'd be happy to keep it at sudo room for the resin printing setup. It probably needs a new carbon filter but I got some carbon filter material and plan to simply re-stuff the existing filter cartridge. The hood is 35.5" wide with a 24" tall work area. It looks like this but without the bottom tray: http://acintergroup.com/media/catalog/product/cache/2/image/9df78eab33525d0… I'm thinking we can put it on the white southernmost table behind the laser cutter? Maybe a front-opening printer like this one would be appropriate? https://www.anycubic.com/products/photon-mono-se-lcd-3d-printer?variant=358… If this happens I'd like to keep access to the printer and a small supply box locked off unless folks have been checked out on usage of the printer since it's easy to permanently destroy these by not cleaning off the resin and letting the sun's UV harden it. Folks from CCL might also be interested since resin is generally autoclavable and more chemical resistant than what can be done with the melty-type printers. Anyone interested enough to help buy such a thing? -- marc/juul

sudoroom/omni needs an email admin to help reduce spam

by Jake

I am on a few of the email mailinglists on the omnicommons/sudoroom servers, and we've been getting a lot more spam in the last year. I am concerned that this is ranking down the credibility of our server, and resulting in more of the emails coming from our lists being sent into people's spam folders. Is anyone available to help install and configure spam filters on our mailinglists so that we can stop sending out spam? Our email lists are an important way for our communities to function, but they're useless if they just get spam-canned at the receiving end. -jake

women's coding group - creating a displaced homemaker api

by romy＠snowyla.com

wow i'm embarrassed but i've never coded a back end api. i think i will tackle that project. the theme will be displaced homemakers and resources to help them. also there will be books such as "The feminine mistake" to help younger women and men not make the choice to become stay at home wives to avoid the displaced homemaker catastrophe https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/career-development/dislocated-worker <- starting here. I guess how should we organize the resources?
