I asked Lovi to Leave ...is Lovi a Sudo Room member ? (Lovi was harassing Chicago, previously harassed Habiba, and had to leave Noisebridge for similar reasons previously)

by Dane

Lovi was harassing Chicago (ANV, long time Omni Commoner) this afternoon about something and Chicago asked that Lovi leave him alone. Lovi mentioned wanting to call police on Chicago. Lovi had previously harassed Habiba saying that she (Habiba of East Bay Food Not Bombs) should not be in Omni Commons (Lovi did not know who Habiba and kept harassing her asking for her ID) Lovi had to leave Noisebridge previously when accusing a random person of being a CIA agent and some other xenophobic conspiratorial ramblings (emphasizing that the random person was foreign and not from here.) I asked Lovi to leave and she ran up to the roof as she knows Mike the roofer. Is Lovi a Sudo Room member ? Dane

Fwd: Donations unloading today and flooding: Sudo needs your help!

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Forwarding Lilu's last email, which I think she accidentally sent just to me. Also, if anyone else wants to put some effort into selling gear on eBay or CraigsList, CCL is offering a 25% commission on any of our excess lab equipment you can sell for us! I believe we still have a couple pieces that may be worth a few $hundred each. Contact me and David Anderson at davidcharlesander(a)gmail.com if interested. Patrik ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Lovi <ponderosa(a)tutamail.com> Date: Thu, Dec 16, 2021 at 2:24 PM Subject: Re: [sudo-discuss] Donations unloading today and flooding: Sudo needs your help! To: Patrik D'haeseleer <patrikd(a)gmail.com> I concur about raising things off the ground. I emptied a few buckets but it was not as bad as it could have been this morning Bcause Mike put tarps over the leaky windows and he was vacuuming the floor and surfaces and emptying out buckets while I moved donations into the Sudo room. At this point we really need: 1) people to lift things off ground 2) people to evaluate damage to equipment 3) people to clean things that arent fucked 4) people to identify and describe things for sale. Lots of the equipment is sellable or keepable including some wifi thingies, a 220 power supply, cords galore and a boss amp. There are some servers that arent but they "have lots of space and parts". Not my wheelhouse but I am good at copy and photos for selling, but I need some buddies. -- Sent with Tutanota, the secure & ad-free mailbox. Dec 16, 2021, 20:43 by patrikd(a)gmail.com: Thanks, Lilu! I carted out five 10-gal mop buckets of water from Sudo and CCL on Tuesday, and I know Lilu did more of the same in Sudo with the shop-vac (shop-vac is easier to use, but mop bucket is easier to roll out to the curb for emptying). There is more rain on the way over the next couple of days, but supposedly less than we've had so far. Meanwhile, the more standing water we can remove, the faster we'll be able to dry out the building, and the less problems with mold growth in the next couple of weeks! If there's any valuable equipment or supplies you don't want to get water-damaged, make sure it's OFF THE GROUND on a table or rack, and covered with a plastic tarp. You can split open one of the 50gal garbage bags from the Omni supplies closet (next to the doors from the entrance hall to the ballroom) - I brought in an extra box because we had already used so many for CCL.

Donations unloading today and flooding: Sudo needs your help!

by Lovi

I desperately need to save my computer. I can't get to or transfer my files from a (mz vpv5120) ssd. I have lost three days of productivity I don't have on this. Much Appreciated! Also anyone seen a grey 32gb PNY USB? I could be working on my files if I knew where it was and I may have left it in the computer nearest laser, as I wasn't feeling good Sat eve. Much Love!

Re: Active leaks in CCL and Sudo!!!

by Lovi

Sudo room is a disaster of flooding! Thanks Patrick. A black bin was full to overflowing where the tesla coil had been. But there are still leaks everywhere. David suggested we could borrow some totes from the basement so I did. I grabbed anything that wasnt porous or obviously filled and not dumpable. Micheal and I each spent several hours mopping and vaccuuming and bucketing. Michael says he gave them a bargain basement proposal for the roof (covering supplies moastly in March. This is not his fault! There are a million seam on the roof because of how previous people cut the sheets to go around the windows and everyone was so focused on the ballroom and that part of the roof drains to sudo area with no outlet. If you care about Sudo or things in it please show up to rescue it in next day or so.

Omni Roof leaks status - CCL-urgent

by David Keenan

CCL: has multiple significant leaks. * IMO, a ccl member if at all possible needs to come on-site stat to assess lab & equipment if they haven’t already. * in the event the sump pump is at all inactive or affecting flow of ccl drain, I cleared away items in front of access hatch in NW lab. ** If possible I would like all shelving / items in NW corner of the NW lab temporarily removed asap in case the sump pump itself needs to be accessed / assessed, which is presently blocked by interior siding / shelving here (predating Omni’s possession of premises.) * * sump pump function to me as a layman looks unrelated to roof drain flow over CCL, but roofer may want to check this to be sure. * if it can’t be feathered up, west edge of building may need additional roof drains. Water collects here and flows too slowly to NW roof drain, the indent in the roof here appears to lead to thicker layers of elastomeric collecting here which it turned out did not have enough time to cure before the weather turned. Ballroom: three leaks, one on main floor (severity: medium), one on east mezzanine (medium), one on south mezz (mild) Roof drainage: - 48th st drain near corner door: is flooded / partially blocked at 2nd-story air gap, resulting waterfall down side of building. Water is flowing off roof but itappears that roof drainage is insufficient on this side and an additional drain must be added. Termination for this drain at curb: I just noticed is only about 20% of drain orifice, significantly reducing flow rate of bottom portion of drain. To fix, either the street must be dug out a bit around opening to unblock, or the sidewalk must be trenched and the horizontal drain level raised. - 48th st drain closer to ANV room: drainage works but appears pretty slow; & termination at curb is 50% of orifice. - 48th st drain near trash room (from ccl): flows, but w/ 60% clear orifice at curb face The rest of omni from a cursory check appears leak-free.

Active leaks in CCL and Sudo

by Patrik D'haeseleer

I counted at least five active leaks in CCL, four in Sudo - details below. I put bins under the worst ones. The water leaking through is milky, which suggests some of the roof coating is dissolving. Can't stay here all day, but it would be good to have several more visits from Sudo and CCL members while the rains continue the next two days! In CCL, we were getting leaks on the HPLC again (tarped, but some water pooling on the bench), on the bioreactor table (which was *untarped*, but most of the water seems to have landed on the table. Cleaned up and tarped now, but an expert should come look!), and on the cart with some electronics right in front of the big screen TV. Sahib and I moved the 3rd bench, bioreactor table and some other gear out of harm's way, mopped, and put down a few more tarps. In Sudo, there was a very active leak right on the big Tesla coil. I pulled it away and put a large bin there. Also active leak right on the first table. Quick sketch of leak locations attached below. Patrik
