tonight at Hardware Hacking Tuesday, a friend of mine showed up and set his bag
down on the floor before greeting others who were here.
His bag touched some of the property of someone who had quite a lot of stuff,
and that person berated my friend for touching his property without permission
and made what I thought was quite a big deal out of it.
my friend was very apologetic (I would not have been) but this did little to
calm the person down, who seemed deeply offended and continued to try …
[View More]to make
my friend feel bad for touching another person's property without permission.
i stepped in and told the person that I thought they had quite a lot of stuff,
which was spilling into walkways and very uncontained, and I asked them to
please move some of it out of the way. They responded that they were just
going to leave because I had made them feel "unwelcome". They then packed up
their stuff and left.
the item in question, that was "touched" by my friends' bag, was a sleeping
bag.

Hello Sudoroom folks,
I hope you don't mind me sending this email to the list, but I hope some of
you could help these students.
Please, when you get a chance, see the details+images on this page I put
together.
https://www.youcaring.com/help-escuela-chajsaquil-recover-from-flood
The short version is that, on October 5th, a tropical storm flooded the
Escuela Mixta Official Barrio Chajsaquil and their already old furniture
got ruined even more. How I learned about this is because I joined …
[View More]their
Facebook group after meeting its principal and knowing the building itself
when I was traveling in Guatemala in Dec. 2016.
This time I was wondering if you know of someone/organization/company that
could help the school economically to bring these students new desks, and
other needed school furniture. The list its in the fundraising page linked
above. If so, please share the link and this email if you want.
In regards of donors wanting a tax exempt form, I am in the process of
getting approved by OmniCommons. So they can be the financial sponsor; so
Omni be the one sending the money to the school. We are open to the
person/organization/company also being the direct donors to the school
itself.
The school location:
Escuela Official Barrio Chajsaquil
San Pedro Carcha, Alta Verapaz
Guatemala
Thank you, and thank you for all you do to make this world a better place.
Sincerely,
Daniel Arauz

sudo party. Whiteboard marker text reads: "THERE IS NO MAID HERE - ONLY
HAPPY RATS. CLEAN YOUR SHIT AND A LITTLE EXTRA!" Signed: "Jenny does not do
sudo dishes"
USPS sent me the renewal notice for our PO box at the Shattuck post
office, across the street.
Can we safely let the box --- and the $200 bill --- go? Or might Omni
have some use for it?
I have a key. I believe Matt still has the other.
Sudo's current balance is now* $3,567.91, *which includes the $4000+ of
Bitcoins we cashed out last month.
Income over the past 30 days was *$1,367.59* - which includes a one-time
$150 gift to cover the costs of the U-Haul trip to pick up the new cabinets.
This means we are effectively *losing around $80**0/month, and will be back
to broke by February*. Please check that your payments via
sudoroom.org/humans are processing!
It may be prudent to begin planning an early 2018 crowdfunding …
[View More]campaign,
but in the interim, please set up payments / check on your payments asap.
Cash payments can be given directly to either myself or Charley.

i have installed the bandsaw tires and the saw is ready to be used, but it
needs the plate. it should be 1.5" square, 0.125" thick, made of aluminum or
steel.
it needs a slot cut into it for the blade, but this can be done (carefully)
using the running blade to create its own clearance in the piece.
do NOT use the bandsaw to cut anything until this square throat plate is made.
