DUNGEONCRAFT Jan 12th 2019

by Meg Burt

Hello all! I was directed to this listserv via Jenny Ryan (thanks Jenny!). I am proposing the event detailed below for Saturday, January 12th: "DUNGEONCRAFT: Painting Minis & Terrain" Saturday, January 12th, 2019 5pm-9pm (preferred; time slot is flexible) https://eastbayal.com/about-us/ I'm looking to host a free painting workshop with small crew of 10-15 folks; I'll be teaching them how to paint miniature figurines and miniature scale terrain for their tabletop games. We're all members of EBAL (East Bay Adventurers League), a collective of tabletop game players & game masters that hold free play events for the public all over the Bay Area. There's no charge for this event at all, we're just looking for some space to spread out our materials and be able to work through some tutorials together. I'm happy to discuss supporting Sudo Room by paying a small fee for use of the space. Please let me know if you need any further information, thank you! Happy Holidays, Meg Burt EBAL Organizer (510) 542-1354

Tech-for-Social-Good Event: "Our People-Centered Digital Future" | Right now via webcast!

by Yosem Companys

May be of interest to the list. -- YC ***** Today is the "Our People-Centered Digital Future" event, a nonprofit, non-partisan, and tech-for-social-good event sponsored by Constellation Research <https://www.constellationr.com/about> to commemorate both the 70th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights <http://www.unesco.org/new/en/brasilia/about-this-office/prizes-and-celebrat…> (UDHR) and the 50th anniversary of the "Mother of All Demos <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mother_of_All_Demos>." By March 2019, 50% of the world will be connected to the Internet, an inflection point that marks an important moment for examining the “unfinished work” of the Internet and discussing the community norms, human rights, and social contracts required in the digital age. The event is well underway: Internet co-inventor Vint Cerf and Web inventor Sir Tim Berners-Lee have already delivered their introductory remarks. If you missed their talks, don't worry. You can click on the Livestream timeline below to view them. There are many more events to come today and into the late evening. This is a simulcast of the YouTube feed at https://youtu.be/S87r9Bn058s> (which does buffer occasionally), but with added AI captions and speaker names.

Stuff in the entrance hall

by Laura Turiano

Hey everyone- All this stuff (see photo) appeared in the entrance hall over night. I don’t know how many times we have to tell people not to leave stuff in the entrance hall until it stops happening. The EB Zine fest is here tomorrow and they need the EH clear. Any information about who left it is appreciated. If you had anything to do with leaving it, come and move it out or into the basement now. Laura Sent from my iPhone

Cheap tablet with LineageOS

by Marc Juul

Every now and again woot.com sells the 5th generation Amazon Fire tablet (from 2015), and a couple of weeks ago it popped up for $16 + taxes/fees. I bought one and it turns out that you can flash an unofficial older version of LineageOS, which is still being maintained for this device, and get a surprisingly good little tablet running 100% FOSS (well except the bootloader depending on which Fire OS version it has). I wrote up a short guide in case anyone else is interested: https://gist.github.com/Juul/3f93655efb8d99b89a29168dd255b5a2 Beware that I haven't verified this procedure on the latest Fire OS versions since the tablet i got didn't have the latest version and I didn't want to tempt fate. From forum reports it doesn't seem like woot is shipping tablets with the latest firmware anyway, but I can't say with any certainty. If you get one, just make sure you keep the WiFi disabled until the guide tells you to turn it on, to prevent it from auto-updating. -- marc/juul

Fwd: [omni-finance] Fwd: Will the Omni sponsor CR's 20th Anniversary (December 9th)?

by robb

any blocks/objections? ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Julio Rios <julio.rios(a)gmail.com> Date: Sun, Nov 25, 2018 at 3:25 PM Subject: [omni-finance] Fwd: Will the Omni sponsor CR's 20th Anniversary (December 9th)? To: <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org> Cc: <finance(a)omnicommons.org> Delegates, My apologies for not bringing this to a delegates meeting or by email sooner. *Please respond by December 1 if at all possible. * I asked the finance working group if the Omni could formally sponsor this event as an organization, and while everyone in the group agreed that we could and should, they requested that I make a formal request to the delegates since it would entail donating funds to an external group. Last year, I contributed $200 on behalf of the Omni and shared a handful of tickets for Omni folks to attend the Annual Critical Resistance program. This year, the event is even bigger and it features a conversation moderated by Angela Davis celebrating 20 years of prison industrial complex abolition. This year, Laura has agreed to cover half the amount for the minimum organizational contribution of $500, so I am requesting *for the Omni to contribute $250. * Thank you all so much for your consideration in supporting the ongoing work of this highly respected Oakland-based organization aligned with the values and mission of the Omni Commons. If this is approved, l please contact me privately if you are interested in attending the program on behalf of the Omni on December 9.

Alongside other abolitionists, we have achieved many victories -- from successfully stopping the construction of new jails in New York to Los Angeles, to ending the use of racist gang injunctions in Oakland and stopping California's 20-year prison building boom. Our campaigns, vision and strategies have been shared and used as blue-prints across the US and internationally. We invite you to join us in celebrating the gains we have made together, feeding our minds and our spirits, and preparing for the pitched battle of the next 20 years. Every donation, ticket or sponsorship will amplify the vision of liberated communities and the fierce, joyful will of our people to fight to win. *Poster design by Kate DeCiccio @k8Deciccio <https://www.instagram.com/k8deciccio/> and Jules Retzlaff @Cerealforthekids <https://www.instagram.com/cerealforthekids/>.
