Hi Sudoers,
Last night was the first electronic music production meetup and it was
great fun! Some friends showed up later in the evening and we had an
impromptu jam.
I'll be holding this meetup every Sunday between 5-7(ish) pm. We can meet
at Sudo Room and move into another open room in Omni if necessary.
This group will be focusing on the production/composition/programming
aspect of electronic music production with an emphasis on Ableton Live and
Logic Pro X. However,all DAW's (Reason, …
[View More]Cubase, Pro-Tools, Fruity Loops
Studio) are welcome.
I'd like to keep the group loose and unstructured for now so we can let it
grow organically.
The idea is to meet others interested in electronic music production, learn
from each other, inspire ideas, collaborate on projects, etc.
I understand there is another music collective forming at Omni same night
and time and I have reached out to them to see if we can combine forces!
Looking forward to meeting and collaborating with more of you!
~ Merry

The magstripe card access system at the front door works again.
The problem? It got unplugged from electricity. It needs to be plugged
in. Presently it's plugged into an extension cord.
There is a backup battery in it, which can operate for a really long time,
and as soon as it's unplugged, it starts telling us in IRC (hacker
chatroom) and we start telling each other to plug it back in, but none of
us are there.
This happened, and everyone in the chat was like "lol plug it back in pls"…

but it didn't happen. Instead people came by Omni and marveled at the
various wires in the system, thinking they must be the problem. One
person replaced the wires to the door, wiring them incorrectly in the
process.
Eventually it got plugged back into the extension cord and powered up
again, but I had to fix the rewiring that happened while people were
trying to fix it. It works now.
Moral of the story: we are going to wire the thing into the AC wiring of
the building so this doesn't happen anymore.
If you have questions please let's discuss it on the appropriate list,
which is:
access(a)lists.sudoroom.org
thank you!

i regret to inform you that the front door electronic locking mechanism
(omnidoor) is not working. all connections appear to be intact and seem to
have continuity.
however, the beaglebone is powering itself off. the 13v dc power supply
feeding the 6v battery that feeds the 5.2v beaglebone has me concerned. i'm
gonna try 5.2v to power the beaglebone.
any other ideas?
thx

Subject: BREAKING: TPP text leaked
To: danarauz(a)gmail.com
*Last week, WikiLeaks released the final text of the TPP’s intellectual
property rights chapter and it is absolutely terrifying.*
*These are just a few of its most dangerous pieces:*
-
Compel ISPs to take down websites without any sort of court order, just
like SOPA. (Appendix Section I)
-
Extend the US’s copyright regime to require copyrights stand for life
plus 70 years, preventing anyone from using works that belong in the public
domain. (Article QQ.G.6)
-
Criminalize whistleblowing by extending trade secrets laws without any
mandatory exemptions for whistleblowers or investigative journalists.
(QQ.H.8)
-
End anonymity online by forcing every domain name to be associated with
a real name and address. (Article QQ.C.12)
-
Make it illegal to unlock, modify, or generally tinker with a device you
own. (Article QQ.G.10)
-
Export the US’s broken copyright policies to the rest of the world
without expanding any of the free speech protections, like fair use.
(Article QQ.G.17)
*The worst part is that this is just one of the TPP’s 30 chapters. *
*The final text confirms our worst fears — click here to take action
demanding Congress vote NO on the TPP.
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>*
For years, governments have held critics of the massive Trans-Pacific
Partnership agreement in a perfect catch 22. Officials brushed off public
outcry and concern by claiming that the dissenters didn’t have all the
facts.
This was by design—the 12 country trade deal was negotiated entirely behind
closed doors by industry lobbyists and government appointees, and even now
the text of the agreement is still classified.
But late last week, WikiLeaks released the final text of the Intellectual
Property chapter, meaning those excuses won’t work anymore.
*We’re planning to go all out against the TPP, but the first step is to
make sure Congress knows just how many people oppose the TPP. *
*Click here to take action demanding Congress vote NO on the TPP.
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>*
Taking action today is just the beginning, because if all we do is send
emails and make phone calls, Congress is not going to reject the TPP. Too
many giant industries are seriously invested in making sure Congress
ratifies the TPP.
*If we’re going to win, we need to go big. Which is exactly what we’re
going to do.*
*So take action right now. Contact your Congresspeople now and tell them to
vote against the TPP
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>*.
Then get ready to do more because we’re going to unleash some of our
strongest campaigns ever.
Already we have plans to work with hundreds of different groups as a
massive coalition to fight the TPP, coordinate gigantic on-the-ground
protests in key cities across the country, and produce compelling content
to spread the word to as many different audiences as possible just what is
at stake in the TPP.
*To do all that, we need your help — if you can, pledge to chip in $5 every
month between now and when the TPP fight ends so that we can run our
biggest, boldest, and best campaign yet.
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>*
Thanks for all you do,
Charlie
P.S. Want to read the text of the chapter for yourself? Check it out on
WikiLeaks here
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>,
or read their overview of it here
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>.
It’s long and complicated, so maybe you'll see something that we didn't. If
you do, send us an email.

Hello Sudoers, I am samthetechie from c-base, Berlin.
I am on Mitch's
https://noisebridge.net/wiki/NoisebridgeChinaTrip5#People_interested_in_goi…
trip (which is amazing). Currently in Shanghai spending a lot of time at
this cool hackerspace: https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/Xinchejian
I came across https://www.climategames.net/en/ which some folk at the
space might quite like and the trailer (https://youtu.be/PLuSZSI0vz8) is
awesome and the concept looks thrilling!
So does anyone want to …
[View More]collaborate on ideas for how hackerspaces in
general can participate in the climate games and maybe who wants to make
a team and get disbodient? Omni/Sudoroom Team? A Noisebridge team?
C-base team? etc
Not sure about the best way to move forwards, open to suggestions? Maybe
a call or IRC meeting would be best? freenode/#climategames
I posted this on the mailing list as I see this more as a project rather
than a simple: here is a link/thing :)
Cheers,
samthetechie
