Sudopeeps, A friend of mine is getting out of the business of making guitar straps and was dumping a bunch of leather remnants. A lot of it is patterned, some is not. They are all high quality. They are leftovers from custom amplifier cabinet coverings at Mesa Boogie. I packed the trunk of my car with them and am offering them to the makerz. You all have first dibs on them. If you want them, let me know and I will drop by tomorrow or some other evening this week and unload them. The trunk is packed full. If you are not interested I will keep going down my list.... Cheers, Erik Euthymia Electronics Alameda, CA

Re: [sudo-discuss] [Mesh] Help archive free UC Berkeley lectures!

And a decided No, I'm not yet willing to take the time-consuming effort of describing my situation in detail in order to supposedly "help" the admins-that-be on github.com/lbryio/lbry or wherever else fix their archive accessibility issues :( Too many hoops for me to go thru, so I'll do without these Cal lectures for the present, no problem. -- aaronco36 aaronco36@ -- http://www.fastmail.com - IMAP accessible web-mail

sudo room 5MoF call for speakers - April 5th

by Marc Juul

The next sudo room 5 minutes of fame is happening on April 5th. Add yourself to the wiki or respond to this email if you'd like to speak for five minutes about something you're working on or excited about! https://sudoroom.org/wiki/5MoF_2017-04-05 We really need more volunteers to help ensure that the event runs smoothly. Last time we had more technical issues than needed. We need: * Someone to talk about what sudo room is and the rest of the omni during waiting periods in between talks (when people are setting up their laptop). * Someone to set up signs guiding people from the outside of the omni to the right area * Someone to sit near the door and take donations (you can still see the talks) * Someone to help set up and clean up the snack table * Someone to talk to speakers and ensure they have what they need (display adapters, internet, sound, etc.) before they have to speak. * Someone to lead a tour around sudo room and the omni during the break * Someone to sit by the audio mixer and adjust volume as needed Please respond to this thread or to me if you're able to help out with any of these. -- marc/juul

Got you some pick&place component reels...

by Patrik D'haeseleer

I managed to score some reels of components to feed the pick&place, at a lab we were helping to clean out this morning. Mostly smallish pieces; hardly any full reels. But there should be some good diversity in there at least. I didn't count but I would guesstimate I grabbed maybe a hundred reels or so in total. There's a whole bin full of good quality scope probes, and some other knickknacks as well. I'll try to drop them off before the delegates meeting tonight. Could probably use a hand getting all the boxes out of my car... Patrik

roomba scooba charger?

by Jake

do you, or someone you know, have a roomba scooba floor mopper robot? my friend found a scooba in the trash and i sent it to my nephew to play with but there was no charger, and it uses a different connector for the charger plug and I don't know what the pinout is. http://www.ebay.ie/itm/iRobot-Scooba-Power-Supply-AC-Adapter-Charger-Model-… it has a DIN-5 connector like MIDI but it only uses 3 pins. There are pictures of the charger on the web, but the label on the charger shows the pinout for the original barrel connector :p i want to measure someone's scooba charger so i can send him one or something. did you know they're eays to hack and tell them where to drive? they have a serial port and you can just plop a small computer on top and drive it around, looking through the webcam. -jake

Internet Society online course "Building Community Mesh Networks"

by Eve Edelson

The Internet Society offers various online courses. The latest is "Building Community Mesh Networks" : http://inforum.internetsociety.org/LMS/Portal.aspx?tabindex=0 The course was developed by IEEE and ISOC. Many of the course participants are IEEE SIGHT, IEEE Smart Village and HAM radio folks. It is an open course but you must have a ISOC Membership login (free => internetsociety.org) [image: Inline image 1] There's an online registration form with instructions. The course is self directed but has a six week completion timeline. Space is limited - sorry for late notice but I got a late start on it myself. I think after the course is over it will be left online.
