Occupy 10th Anniversary

by Ed Biow

Hey folx, we are coming up on the 10th anniversary of Occupy Wall Street and so far no one that I am aware of has organized any events for the Bay Area. Around the country other people <https://linktr.ee/occupy2.0> have begun to plan things, open mics and art shows, vaccine clinics, free masks, Pussy Riot <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pussy_Riot> is even supposed to show up in Los Angeles. As you can see from the attached video cliplet, there are people who would really like to see something happen in the Bay Area, as well. At this point those of us who are mulling this over are leaning towards doing something on Friday, September 17 rather than Occupy Oakland's 10th anniversary on October 10th. Since I am a pro at crastinating, if it were up to me, we might well have to wait until the heat death <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_timeline_from_Big_Bang_to_Heat_Death> of the universe before something gets organized but I'm willing to throw gobs of food at an event if other people are also interested in getting together for an open mic or speak out or something & are willing to put some energy into making it happen. I can also bring an EZ-up or three and a microphone and speaker, and maybe a few chairs and tables if we can achieve critical mass. I could even cobble together a flyer if we can agree on something. Anywho, if anyone would like to help put something together maybe that could join the biweekly rump of Occupy Oakland's GA (generally just a few people) Sunday, August 28th at 4 PM. I believe that will be here: Join Zoom Meeting https://zoom.us/j/96249815361?pwd=OFluQThwRy9vVitxQXdnSS9TSmVRZz09 Meeting ID: 962 4981 5361 Passcode: 123456 Some dialin numbers: +1 408 638 0968 +1 669 900 6833 If you would like to chime in on the weekly national Occupy Commemoration Zoom meeting, it is every Saturday at noon, PST. /sending a reminder about our national organizers' call for Occupy Wall Street's 10th anniversary.

Susan, I asked Jay Ponti <https://betherevolution.us/> to send me a link to today's Zoooom meeting.

I’ve contacted Occupy the Farm and Strike Debt and of course the Public Bank. Should we invite SF? If I write to Ruthie, everybody will come, so I’ll ask for RSVPs and threaten them with running out of food if they don’t reply.

Fwd: [omni-consensus] OMNI NEEDS LEGAL OFFICERS

by Marc Juul

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Yardena Cohen <yardenack(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, Aug 27, 2021 at 2:41 AM Subject: [omni-consensus] OMNI NEEDS LEGAL OFFICERS To: consensus <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org> Please forward to your groups and collectives - Omni Commons is seeking candidates in our officer election for 3 positions: president, treasurer and secretary. At minimum, folks in these positions need to have their names filed with the California secretary of state and be available to occasionally sign things. At best, folks in these positions would join the finance working group to take an active role in administrative paperwork, writing checks, paying bills and so forth. An active treasurer would enable us to have separation of powers between the bookkeeper and the money spender, for example. Your primary interactions would probably be with finance wg members - currently me, Sarah Lockhart, John Torok, and occasionally Silver. Like all community members, you'd be encouraged (but not required) to attend delegates meetings on 1st and 3rd Thursdays. As soon as we get enough interested candidates, we will hold an election to get delegate approval. Thanks, Yar _______________________________________________ consensus mailing list consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/consensus

Also, you will have: * Excellent Linux administration skills, performance- tuning and server hardening; * Demonstrable experience deploying and managing technology using Ansible, Docker and/or Kubernetes; * Experience with data engineering, analysis, visualization of web traffic and network statistics (e.g. Kibana, Grafana, Icinga, Prometheus, etc); * Experience in network programming (HTTP, TCP/IP, UDP) with knowledge of peer-to-peer (BitTorrent) technologies a strong asset; * Familiarity with coding in Python (with Go and/or C++ experience a strong asset); * An active appreciation for reading and writing documentation! *Now, a little bit about us…* <https://equalit.ie/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/eq-logo-site.jpg>eQualitie <https://equalit.ie> is a growing technology company that puts its principles before profits.

Filezilla Call for Participation: Secure File Storage & Sharing

by Karissa McKelvey

Hey everyone, we're doing a short study and I think someone from the sudoroom community could be a good fit, anyone interested in talking about your experience or know someone who fits the bill? Do you need to share files privately with a limited and select number of people? Are you concerned about security or access, and don't want to use commercial providers like Dropbox? Have you ever tried setting up a self-hosted server, like FTP, FileZilla, or NextCloud, to do this? We're booking 15-30 minute conversations to hear more about your needs. We are Rae and Kelsey from Simply Secure. Thanks to support from the Open Tech Fund <http://opentech.fund/>, we're working on making sensitive file storage, backup, and sharing much easier. Sign up on this brief form <https://form.jotform.com/filezilla/usability-interviews> or send an email to filezilla(a)simplysecure.org to get started. Thanks so much and looking forward to speaking with you soon, -- Rae McKelvey Researcher, Simply Secure decentralization off the shelf <https://decentpatterns.xyz> | about me <https://okdistribute.xyz>

fridge

by Edwinsaurus

I cleaned out a full trash can of moldy and rotten shit from this same fridge a month or 2 ago. apparently it has reverted to the same state as before. I think it is a bio hazard, breeding flies, spores, bacteria and other organisms that we don't need in Omni Commons. I think that the best solution would be to dispose of it.

I'm resigning as omni delegate

by Yardena Cohen

Hi all, I've been sudoroom's delegate to omni commons on/off for many years. I don't want to do it anymore and I think it's time for someone else to step up. I'm happy to help prep new folks for that, but I'm not going to wait around for a transition period. If nobody else steps up by next month, sudoroom will become "inactive" and will no longer be able to block consensus decisions. Best, Yar
