Hi folks, I'm writing on behalf of Common Humanity Collective, a local mutual aid collective that distributes free masks and DIY air purifiers to the community. We've been looking for access to a laser cutter that has NOT come into contact with or been in the vicinity of any carbon fiber dust/residue - we don't want anybody breathing that in because we accidentally transferred some to our air purifiers! I realize this might not be possible to answer b/c so many people have worked in the space, but have people worked with carbon fiber at sudoroom before? Are there any rules allowing/forbidding it from use? Any info would be helpful, thank you! -Skylar

Deepseek sessions for about half an hour before start of Tuesday hardware hack night

by Romy Ilano

Thinking of having informal Deepseek sessions for about half an hour before start of Tuesday hardware hack night - we would be whiteboarding - we can start with quantized models of deepseek that can fit on everyone's laptop I was following the deepseek discussion, but do we have a computer that ca hold larger models? I know noisebrige is running one. ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

by Romy Ilano

what about a super simple and sweet workshop to host deepseek on people's laptops using ollama? it would be nice clickbait for a our page, and it would be accompanied with a whiteboard to help people brainstorm how to get the larger models up. tons of us have already downloaded deepseek (the tiny baby verison) to our laptops ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
