Winter Seasons Greetings! I am reaching out to let everyone know that the new roof installation process has concluded. The roofing crews last day was on 12/13 and this past week our team performed a third visual inspection after final punch list items were concluded. In the coming days, CALLI will square away the final paperwork for this project. The Sierra Roofing team has shown us that the roof is weather proofed and the work appears to be satisfactory. Please keep in mind that there is meant to be a warranty on the work performed by the company. In the event that there are leaks/droplets identified please let me know via email or slack as soon as possible and we will try and identify the source. Over the scope of the project, two additional building issues were brought to our attention pertaining to the exterior wall of the building facing 47th street that will need updates in the coming year, and the design of the rafter beams that go into the stucco wall on the front facing Shattuck side of the building (close to the overlaps with the tile) that might be cause for an additional scope of work. The CALLI team will continue to review capital improvement needs and work on scheduling building upgrades to strengthen the longevity of the building. In the meantime feel free to remove your tarps and protective sheeting, and make efforts to clean and operate your spaces at normal capacities. This post construction period coupled with the ongoing pest/rodent servicing will be most successful if we are able to stay alert and monitor whether the changes are making a positive impact.

Sudoroom tonight: KQED and More!

by Peter Mui

Hi Sudoers: Heads up that KQED is going to be at Sudoroom tonight to get advance footage for a Fixit Clinic event Jan 22 at KQED headquarters: https://www.kqed.org/events/4915/fixit-clinic Ericka Cruz Guevarra, Host and Producer of KQEDs The Bay podcast <https://www.kqed.org/podcasts/thebay> will be bringing a clock to be looked at tonight; that and the other items we might see are at bit.ly/itemcheckins Also: someone (Patrik from CCL?) left a Samsung un48J5200AF 48” TV (If it’s Patrik’s: “It has been having intermittent problems with the screen going black,”) We also still have the 55” 4K TV, Toshiba Model K550WDR1 / Toshiba 55l621U disassembled: when power is applied It displays the splash screen with the logo, and then goes out. It’d be great to get at least one of these TVs working so we can use it to telepresence people in to sudorooom. And we’re building out a core of stewards for Sudoroom’s Chromebook/laptop refurbishing, conversion to Linux and long-term support program. I plan to bring some converted and convert-able Chromebooks to play with tonight. (see http://bit.ly/cbsave.) Let’s put on a great show! See you later, -Peter

Old Sudo-er/synth head coming visit the Omni Thurs & Fri

by lewis_black

Hi all, I used to live in Oakland 9 years ago (wow…), of when I used to attend hack nights at Sudoroom and participate in festivities. I play my own blend of modular psytech. I brought a small backpack hardware setup. If anyone wants to jam between now and Friday nite. Also planning on taking my battery-powered rig to Dolores park or Lake Merrit to play a set, which is usually a consistent 137bpm. Control voltage and analog contraptions highly encouraged. Cheers. And continue hacking the Planet ✊🖖 Oh, a link to my music can be found here: https://on.soundcloud.com/tvfeR3bSHFEyRr4s7

50" TV for Sudo?

by Patrik D'haeseleer

I have a 50" TV that I'd like to donate to Sudo. It has been having intermittent problems with the screen going black. I don't have time to chase down the issue, but maybe someone there can diagnose the problem during one of the FixIt clinics. Shall I drop it off? Patrik

cheap electric vehicle projects available

by Jake

Hi everyone, I seem to be plagued with too many electric vehicles, from about 10-20 years ago. They are really cool and fun to drive, but they need work and I'm out of space and time to store and work on them. Most of them are 2002 Toyota RAV4 EVs, which many people don't even know were ever made. Here's the wikipedia page on them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_RAV4_EV#First_generation_(1997) If you have a place to park a project car and interest in working on one, please let me know. If you are a PG&E customer, you can get up to $4000 (depending on your income) for buying a used EV like this (whether it drives or not) I will be fixing mine and my friend's over the next few months and I can help you fix yours too. Just let me know if you're interested. -jake
