I ordered a Cisco ATA 186 for the payphone on the front of Omni.
I will bring it over tomorrow night and wire it up... but we have to hook
it into the Asterisk VoiP server, and ideally we will configure it so that
when you pick up the phone, it automatically goes into a menu telling you
to press a key to select which collective you want to call.
Does anyone want to take this on? Robb has set up the asterisk server and
got it going, but I think he could use some help.
This is important …
[View More]because we need to be more careful about who we let into
the building - the OPD and BID are actively trying to shut us down, and we
need to at least try to pretend that we don't open the door for just
anyone who rings the doorbell.
so who wants to help?

Hey it was great to stop by today! I saw the awesome crypto party folks and
was impressed by the biohackers at Counter Culture labs.
I'm thinking about my next project for SudoRoom. I'd like to do something
that ideally benefits both SudoRoom and another non profit at OmniCommons
and use my skills!
I'm working on a cool non profit project (mostly the mobile party) called
FoodRev.org
They are working with volunteers to distribute donated food to donation
centers around the city.
It'd be cool …
[View More]to make something similar for SudoRoom/Food not Bombs.
This could even be extended to things like donations, scheduling clean up
and waste disposal and bringing eWaste to centers.
Looking forward to nice things ahead. *It's really great to stop by
SudoRoom and Counter Culture labs on the weekend. *I'm currently in-between
jobs, but I'm going to get a new job soon and I'd like to keep going to my
favorite hackerspaces, so that means focus on the weekend.
The Sundays are great because the Biohackers are there... it adds a lotta
life to the space! Maybe a Sunday stopover can be a regular thing?

Hey folks
Im looking for a super bright single point light source that is
electronically easy to manage. . An LED comes to mind but i dont have a lot
of experience with high power leds. . Can anyone make a recommendation of a
manufacturer or make or resale source? . Looking for something that
consumes more than 1watt. Fyi. Maybe more like 3w.

I missed out on GDC!
I don't feel motivated to buy or even borrow a VR headset but I'd be interested in checking it out at a hackerspace or cafe
Any interesting meetups around this?

Does anyone know whether the Cisco model 186 (or 188) VoIP ATA can do
"autodial" so that we can have the payphone immediately give a voice
prompt menu when people pick up the handset?
We can get a Cisco 186 for $15 on ebay:
www.ebay.com/itm/Cisco-ATA-186-ATA186-Product-ID-ATA186-I1-A-/301900913722
Or does anyone have a VoiP ATA that can do that? We have an asterisk
system and we need a working ATA that can do that for the payphone outside
of Omni.
We need to set up the payphone instead …
[View More]of the doorbell, so that we can
talk to whomever is at the door rather than just opening the door, in case
it's the cops or building inspectors or whatever.
you may have heard that the Temescal BID and OPD have openly declared
their intention to "shut down the Omni"
so I feel like it's time to start working on our front-door access stuff
again.
Here's a page I found about auto-dial but i don't know if it applies to
asterisk:

I was recently informed by a comrade that an officer from OPD attended this
week's Business Improvement District meeting and stated that it is OPD's
intent to SHUT DOWN THE OMNI due to the "hacking activities" of the
building.
I, for one, consider this to be an outrage that needs to be met with the
full force of the global hacking community & a slander lawsuit from
5ud0r00m.
