I uploaded the correct firmware to the machine (it was running firmware for a machine with different physical attributes) and now it seems to print fine. I didn't have the time to properly prepare the bed though, so there was some non-adhesion, but the giant spool of filament is hooked up and it's ready to go. cura-lulzbot slicer is installed on the computer there, and "sudoroom white ABS" filament is defined and should work. Pronterface (red icon) is the program to use to drive the printer and run the gcode generated by cura. don't do the SD card thing, it won't work and is terrible. https://sudoroom.org/wiki/TAZ -jake On Thu, 1 Feb 2018, Paul Orozco wrote: > So I'm coming across something else that's weird.

Money money money

by Captain Chesapeake

Hi all, I still don’t have a clear picture of sudoroom finances, cash flow, or budget? Anybody interested in joining me down this rabbit hole? Where can I get a handle on this information? It would be nice to hear a report at every monthly meeting. Thanks, The Cap’n

transitioning items to disposal

by Captain Chesapeake

Hi all, I neatened up the soldering area and have asked members to review what was placed in the two bins to the lower left of the soldering area over the next two weeks. Once those two weeks are up and nobody claims any more items in the bin, how do I transition the stuff in the bin to it's next life? That is, recycle some, dispose of other stuff. This isn't really run of the mill "trash" to be put in the black building-wide "trash" bins for disposal in a landfill. Or maybe that is OK? Looking for some guidance here. Thanks The Cap'n

Request to have or borrow Arduino preferably with Bluetooth

by Robert Chu

Hello Sudoroom community, I have finally have a project that I would like to pursue. I would like to make Led clothes that are both reactive to sound, pressure, and default pre-program pattern mode. Aside from that... I was wondering if anybody had an extra microcontroller in their collection that potentially is just gathering dust and not being used (one preferably with bluetooth and small). Knowing nothing about these things except that they operate on magic, and probably a magic of maybe a lighter color... I will definitely dive right in, and get to haXinG. Yes I could order one, but due to my current financial disposition, I thought I would reach out to the community first. As I also searched for the microcontroller bin here at Sudoroom, and I think it is gone. Thanks in advance -- RAYC "Radiant Ambition Yields Change" Robert Albert Young Chu "Radiant Ambition Yields Change." Call or Text :415-724-0425 Email: robert.chu01(a)gmail.com

In Finland, Teaching Computer Science Without Computers - The Atlantic

by Romy Ilano

https://www-theatlantic-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.theatlantic.com/amp/… In Finland, Teaching Computer Science Without Computers - The Atlantic Feb 24, 2017 When it comes to technology, it’s hard to evaluate just how well the Finnish approach is working. Computer science isn’t covered on international tests, and it’s a relatively recent addition to the curriculum. But Liukas and others point to Finnish inventions like Linux and Nokia as evidence that the country’s education system sparks the innovation and entrepreneurship that will drive the tech-based economy of the future. And while the United States is obviously a different beast than Finland, with a host of challenges, as Liukas tells the children she meets, “Even the biggest problems in the world are just tiny problems stuck together.” Sent from my iPhone
