does sudoroom have an isolation transformer? it's something that plugs
into a regular outlet and outputs the same voltage, but it's isolating.
we have a couple of universal AC converter boxes which provide 240VAC when
you plug them into 120VAC but they are "autotransformers" and they don't
isolate.
I want us to have an isolating transformer so that when people experiment
with AC-powered devices, they are much less likely to suffer a lethal
shock and die.
note: some voltage-regulator …
[View More]transformers are isolating, but since they
distort the waveform in order to achieve the voltage stabilizing, they are
not ideal for our purposes.
thank you,

we got a large box full of capacitors from hayward hackers. i found the box
they were in out in the entrance hall in a trash pile but the caps weren't
in there.
does anyone know where they went?
cm needs some
thx
i saw Max B looking through the sudomesh gear and i told him that i thought
he had quit the sudomesh project & asked what he was doing. He told me to
"fuck off" and i asked him to leave for violating our safe space policy. He
walked back in the front door after i walked him out the side door & when
he saw me he claimed he wanted to grab a spool of ethernet cable. i told
him to contact sudomesh to get whatever materials he claims are his.
i noticed he took a pair of rj45 crimpers (blue …
[View More]handle) which he claimed
were his.

The white FNB truck is not used during the middle of the day on Monday.
Give me a call then if you want to use it. 510 - 332 - 6535.
Does anyone in FNB have any concerns about this?

Hey Folks,
Seriously, we have over 100 AT6 punch down keystone jacks donated to
Sudoroom/SudoMesh.
Each one of them runs for $6.99 on Amazon.
If you would like to read the story about how this happened:
This AM Laura and I went down the street from Omni to drop off some
donations to de depot, and on our way back we saw a lady on her way to
donate some stuff too. But, when I read the label of one of the boxes that
read Panduit", my brain went in alert mode! :) So i asked her what was in
that …
[View More]box, she opened it for us and saw all those connectors! She asked me,
as you an artist? I said, not, but I know what these things are, and we can
use them! : ) She gave us the box. And that is how we got them. :)
Have a great weekend everyone!
Daniel

A great opportunity to get out in nature, do something for the environment,
help make our community a better place to live, and *be very publicly seen
as a force for Good in our neighborhood*!
The 21st Annual Oakland Creek to Bay Day
<http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/PWA/o/FE/s/ID/OAK024743> is coming
up Saturday, September 17. But *if we want to register as a volunteer
group, and propose a specific site to work on, we need to register TODAY
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/…
[View More]1FAIpQLScxmJHcUrUPLEyXjs1HKtX7M__XE1hYO8q…>.*
*Speak up asap if you'd like to participate, if you have any ideas for a
site to work on (here's the existing list so far
<http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/PWA/o/FE/s/ID/OAK024743#locations>;
we can propose more), and especially if you can help as volunteer
(co-)coordinator! *I would love to participate, but September is looking to
be a busy month for me, so I'd prefer not to be the sole volunteer
coordinator
