Hey Peter
We're looking into developing a process to test GPUs for resale. Do you
have any experience or know anyone that understand Linux and GPU testing
apps?

Life just got in the way lately! still trying to work out my sleep
schedule + new work schedule. But will try to take care of it tonight
I'm particularly interested in offering avenues for women who join SudoRoom
to do stuff that isn't necessarily centered around female crafting or
working with children. The more possibilities we create, the more fun it
will be for everyone!

Dear Sudoroom members and leaders,
For the past 2.5 years I’ve been a Sudoroom “member” (I say this in
quotations because I’ve been paying dues and attending but have never been
endorsed as a full fledged member), but I’d like to make a proposal that
Sudoroom become an Apartheid Free Community!
I am writing as a member of SURJ Bay Area’s Palestine Solidarity Campaign.
As a racial justice organization, SURJ believes it is our moral obligation
to demand an end to Israel’s system of apartheid, …
[View More]its genocide in Gaza, and
its increasing violent seizure of land in the West Bank. All this is paid
for by our tax dollars, with the U.S. directly funding the Israeli
government to the tune of $35 billion a year.
We invite Sudoroom to join us to support the Palestinian people’s human
rights, lives, and lands by taking the pledge to become an Apartheid-Free
Community.
Apartheid is a crime against humanity. As defined by the United Nations
<https://legal.un.org/avl/ha/cspca/cspca.html>, apartheid includes:
• Acts such as murder, torture, inhuman treatment, and arbitrary arrest of
members of a racial group
• Deliberate imposition upon the subjugated racial group of living
conditions calculated to cause its physical destruction
• Legislative measures that discriminate in the political, social,
economic, and cultural fields
We could fill pages with examples of how Israel’s treatment of Palestinians
meets this criteria—from arrests and imprisonment without charges to the
destruction of Gaza by bombing homes, hospitals, and schools and cutting
off food, water, electricity and medical supplies. Palestinians are
subjected to entirely different laws and judicial systems, without freedom
of movement and economic opportunities.
Inspired by the anti-apartheid movement that helped topple the white
supremacist regime in South Africa, the Apartheid-Free Communities Campaign
is bringing communities together to end apartheid in Israel/Palestine. We
encourage Sudoroom to join the over 500 organizations across the globe,
including cities, schools, faith-based communities, labor unions,
businesses, and organizations, in taking the pledge to become an
Apartheid-Free Community.
Signing the Pledge makes a difference! It reflects public support to our
elected officials when we press them to divest from Israeli violence. It
reduces harm to Palestinian and Arab members of our community. It
challenges the official narratives and expands the public consciousness
around Palestine. We ask that you sign this pledge, and take actions, in
whatever way makes sense to Sudoroom, to be part of this effort.
Be sure to let me know if you have any questions and how I can support your
Sudoroom in signing the Pledge and joining this campaign.
In Solidarity,
Lo
P.S. We have materials including buttons, posters, and pamphlets you can
use to increase awareness and build support. Plus the Apartheid-Free
Communities website <https://apartheid-free.org/about/> is full of great
resources and educational materials.

Hi Sudoers:
We’ve got two events coming up later this week:
- Fri Jun 27 7PM-9PM: Sudo Room is hosting Denise Wong, Senior Statewide
Membership Organizer, and at least seven others (Denny, Hoang, Jeffrey,
Jennifer, Jorja, Kevin, and Matt) from Asian Pacific Environmental
Network (https://www.apenaction.org/) for a meet-and-greet, tour of Omni
Commons, and an informal clean-up and cull of our laptop cabinet: please
help us give them a warm welcome.
(Is anyone willing to tidy up Sudo Room …
[View More]between now and Friday evening,
pretty please?)
- Sat Jun 28 1PM-3PM: Thinkpads4All.org (a great bunch of high schoolers
and college students) is holding a computer repair workshop at the Tarea
Hall Pittman South Branch, Berkeley Public Library:
https://berkeleypubliclibrary.libnet.info/event/13755420
Thinkpads4All brings laptops and disassembly tools to guide participants
through taking a laptop apart – to change the battery, to upgrade
memory, to replace the hard drive, etc. I’ve been attending their
workshops to field general questions about tech repair.
You’re welcome to attend just to participate in the Thinkpads4All
workshop (and tell your friends too); you’re also welcome to join me in
hanging out and fielding questions, or to bring your own laptop or other
tech to work on. (Long term: we’re talking with the Thinkpads4All team
about incorporating more of a Sudo Room-like component to their future
workshops, e.g. inviting people to bring their own broken laptops,
helping with software migration (e.g. Windows 10 end of support is this
October), and converting laptops and Chromebooks to Linux.)
Let me know you’re coming by registering at
https://bit.ly/inpersoncoachsignup
Hopefully see you at either (or both!) , -Peter
