Hi All, My landlord is selling the building, and offered me enough money to entice me to move out. So, I'm wanting to donate all of my electronics and tools to Sudo Room. Jake suggested I post to the list. In addition to the electronics and tools, I also have all MAKE magazines from #1 through #30 (and some of their books), and all 2600 Hacker Quarterly magazines since 2006. Would these be of interest? How about other electronics books? I also have the last 180 of my NeuroDreamer sleep masks (new, in their boxes), most of which need their small LiPo batteries replaced. These take up a bunch of space in their boxes. Jake expressed that these might be interesting to have. Please discuss. And if Sudo Room is collectively interested in any or all, please let me know. Anything Sudo Room doesn't want goes to the SF recycling center. I'll be ready to donate after 30-June. If it's of interest, anyone have a pickup or a van? Or, should I rent one? Best, Mitch.

The horror of housing

by Autonomous

A while back I had a discussion with Matt Senate about the declining number of Sudoroom members. His comment was that the single biggest factor in his view was the lack of affordable housing which he referred to as the "horror of housing". This week in Marin county a homeless encampment near me in San Rafael was razed to the ground by a gasoline-can wielding arsonist. The police posted a "campsite warning notice" 3 days prior to the attack, then went on to say that there is nothing they could do about it because a of a recent federal ruling. This situation caused a near uproar among Marin county residents on sites such as Nextdoor. The victim of the arson attack Damain stated that he was sieeping inside a structure with his girlfriend when he heard a thump on the roof and a whoosh of the structure erupting in flames. He was barely able to escape and pull his girlfriend from the fire. When the fire department arrived they took no action to put out the fire. The police were laughing at Damian's girlfriend who was wearing nothing but her underwear and was wrapped in a blanket. The emergency responders did not check the victims to see if they were suffering from burns or smoke inhalation. Afterwards the police said that fires start at homeless campsites all the time and that Damian should consider moving on. Since the camp is nearby our sanctuary in Marin I saw the site before and after the attack and took a video of one of the victims: Solution to homelessness in Marin County - arson and attempted murder? <https://youtu.be/FT4KFUzY2UU> Here is a link to an article that came out today in the MarinIJ: https://www.marinij.com/2019/06/24/san-rafael-police-investigate-encampment… I am currently working with an ee engineer in the area to deploy sensors on the site and have delivered supplies and clothing to the victims.

Re: [sudo-discuss] [CCL] Free Scanning Electron Microscope in Pleasanton! (was Fwd: [Microscopy] viaWWW:SMI3200 FIB system looking for a good home)

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Here's some images of the Seiko SMI 3200 Scanning Electron Microscope that is in need of a new home: http://www.beamservices.com/used-equipment.html http://www.caeonline.com/listing/product/9025735/seiko-smi-3200 Note that this is NOT a small system! It's not huge as SEM's go, but definitely not desktop - more like "small room sized". And it would obviously need some dedicated person to keep it in good running condition. It is however almost brand new, and currently *running*, at <5nm resolution! Beam Services Inc is down in Pleasanton, so I guess interested parties could potentially go and have a look at the system. This kind of equipment would be a significant commitment and investment in time and effort on our part, so let's coordinate on this shall we?

Ethernet down at liberated lens office, & iCrap upgrade

by Ed Biow

Hey fiends, I needed to take a bath anyway, so I overcame my revulsion and upgraded the iMac from 4GB to 12 GB of memory. as you can see from the attached screenshot. I also connected the big monitor to the right, I don't know if it was disconnected for a specific reason. It looks like the ethernet cable is disconnected, so the iMuck was using wifi. Anka came in and informed me that the ethernet is not working for the Hackintush, either, and has been down for a week or so. I screwed around with the DHCP settings in OSX, but no luck. So I rebooted to Linux on the Hackentosh and confirmed that the ethernet is not working there, either. Someone added a PCI-E network adapter to the Hack, so I tried jacking into the onboard ethernet, no joy. And I found a piece of ethernet cable lying on the ground, so I used to to directly jack in to each of the 2 ethernet ports that come in from the hall directly, squatissimo. So I connected the random bit of ethernet to the iMac and each of the ethernet jacks coming into the office, but as soon as I turned off the wifi I lost connectivity. So it appears that LL1 & LL2 ethernet jacks are no long connected to the server above the sudoroom. The ethernet was working in the LL orifice a couple of weeks ago when I hooked up the new monitor to the Hackentosh and replaced funky M.2 SSD with a new Linux SSD. Possibly something didn't get hooked up after the Omni router died from from heat stroke & got replaced on or about June 9th. I traced the white LL1 & LL2 cables back up to the sudoroom server farm, but then got lost in the hell-broth of cables, and my "brain" exploded, so fixing this issue is above my pay-grade. So, I scavenged a USB wifi dongle off of one of the GCEA boxes in the hall (that didn't have a mouse, anyway), so the Linux and Windows 10 sides of the Hackentosh now have internet, but with O$X with its wonderful tradition of "Think Different" refuses to recognize the cheesy Edimax EW-7811Un wifi dongle. Anyone have any suggestions to get the ethernet working again? Steamy puddles of affection, Einstein & Ed

Building a Pendulum Clock

by Ryan

Hey y'all! Long time, but I'm thinking my health is finally getting to the point where I might be able to grace the halls of sudo once more. Next term, I'll be taking diffeq, and part of the class is coming up with real-world applications of differential equations and then solving them. I came to the conclusion pretty quickly that I also wanted to build something, and while dreaming of cat toys and thinking about pendulums, I realized I was missing the obvious solution: pendulum clocks. There are quite a few resources out there for building a pendulum clock, some of them 3D printable and some of them wooden, but I was leaning more towards doing one in wood, although possibly printing the timing wheel, then sharpening it down more precisely by hand. I'm currently looking at basing it off of these plans: http://www.woodenclocks.co.uk/Clock%207-PR-3.PDF So my questions are: Does anyone have any experience with clock building? How is the laser cutter functioning currently? Are there any issues a novice clockbuilder should look out for? What questions haven't I thought of? -- Currently Reading <https://www.goodreads.com/user/email_signature_destination/35215676?utm_med…> [image: Book Cover] <https://www.goodreads.com/user/email_signature_destination/35215676?utm_med…> <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_cam…> Virus-free. www.avg.com <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_cam…> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>
