it took me a minute to find this link (thanks Patrik) reminding us how to use
the sudoroom laser cutter, but here it is.
Is there someone who is willing to meet with Zerena (cc'd in this email) who
wants to use the laser cutter?
actually i've been noticing a lot of interest in the laser cutter so it would
be good to schedule a training. I'd go.

There is actually a laser cutter in Sudo Room that we can use (and their 3D
printer may or may not be fixed again as well). The old page at RIT that
describes the laser cutter is no longer up, but here's the last version on
archive.org:

should we have a new mailinglist for people working on the vending machines?
long ago we created one for "printing" which was to include 3D printing as well
as paper printing, but it never got used. Do mailinglist take up a lot of
space or weight or cost or anything? Any reason not to?
Or perhaps vending machine discussion should just be in the regular
sudo-discuss list and everybody gets to follow along or not as they will?

http://RevolutionBooks.org needs to make 50-100 a-frame
sidewalk-sandwich-boards out of angle iron very similar to
construction barriers

to mount posters promoting out weekly events
Is there a hackerspace that does welding in Oakland? I either need to
find a welder to donate labor or someone who can support me
inexperienced doing it myself welding / cutting / drilling the pieces
together - or do you know someone at The Crucibile who could support
this?
The photos show the first draft of our simple metal signs made out of
angle iron and in the background, you can see the current version and
size of our 4x1.5' posters.
Rev Books is fighting American fascists and has come under attack 9
times this year by the alt-right. There are many other reasons to
support this bookstore which is part of the center of building a
movement for revolution in this country.

agreed with laura 100%. given previous threats of physical violence to sudo
room members (which i personally witnessed), non-consensus on there not
being a signed agreement (which i also experienced the consenso of
in-person) and lack of clarity on next steps & future accountability, i am
blocking this proposal on behalf of sudo room until the aforementioned
issues are addressed and actually consented-upon. cc'ing sudo-discuss.

Hi all,
I want to start a side correspondence about finances and fundraising. Who
is interested in starting to explore fundraising activities and goals?
Thanks,

i brought in a little box to connect to the sudoroom big TV, it goes between
the HDMI from the raspberry pi and the TV, and provides analog audio out.
The amplifier for the TV built-in speakers is fried. So i want to use external
speakers, so we can have the IRC voice work again, and whatever else.
the raspberry pi's built-in analog audio output doesn't work even when i tried
configuring it like the internet says. Maybe you have better luck, go ahead
and try.
Anyway, i don't know where the little box went. Do you?

hi Julian,
the sudoroom laser cutter is totally available for you to use. I'm CC'ing this
email to the sudoroom-discuss email list to find someone who can show you how
to use it, unless you're confident that you don't need to be shown anything.
when you use it, please make sure the ventilation fan near it is running, and
check the duct connections because they have been falling off recently, which
results in the room being filled with laser fumes despite the fan running.
thank you

Hi all,
I'm working on a long-term project to build a, say, 8 x 20 matrix display.
Each "pixel" hopefully maybe 2"x2" big. Hopefully one day to mount on the
wall in sudoroom and allow people to throw up text and Atari characters
etc. This is related to noisebridge display, but with a different
aesthetic. Is there a spot on the sudoroom website where I could document
my progress on this project, blog style? Otherwise I guess I would use
traditional blogging platform.
Thanks,
The Cap'n
