Looking for someone that would hold my hand and...

by danarauz＠gmail.com

I know the subject line is like.. woot!?? :) But seriously... :) I am looking for someone to hold my hand and walk me through (help me with) a couple of small projects. Here is what I wish to accomplish: 1- to get a router with OpenWRT (Not sure of its capabilities, but I like the idea to get ride of the corporate code, because potential backdoors) 2- and if needed, a tiny computer that would be always connected to a VPN account, so that all home computers can use it as their gateway; IF the router cannot do this. What can I give in exchange? Well, I don't know what knowledge I can share when all of you seem to be way above my head. I don't know, maybe Photography? Spanish? :) Please let me know if interested, we can start right away. I am eager to start this. Many thanks, Daniel -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Help open a people-powered common space in Oakland, California! https://omnicommons.org/donate - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Don't drop off random "donations" (like stone countertops) in CCL without checking with us first!

by Patrik D'haeseleer

In general, if you have any piece of equipment or furniture you would like to donate to CCL, *please check with us first*! You can always email info(a)counterculturelabs.org to contact some of the organizers (I'll check if we have a donations@ and equipment@ alias as well). At a very minimum, for goodness sake please add a note to whatever you dropped off. So *whomever dropped off a bunch of stone countertops in CCL, please get rid of them.* We don't need them, we don't want them, they're taking up space, and we sure as heck prefer not to have to clean up after you... The same principle applies to any equipment "donations" to Sudo and to the Omni as a whole as well. If you haul something in, assuming you're doing someone else a favor, it is still YOUR responsibility to make sure the respective organizations actually want your "treasure". We are all having a hard enough time keeping entropy under control with the stuff we have already... Thanks! Patrik

Fitting in

by Romy Ilano

I don't fit into the startup scene all the time even though I secretly enjoy it when it's good But I don't fit into the activist & cool social movements folks all the time even though they're doing important smart innovative work I'm still barely getting my feet wet in open source & seek to make contributions but the passionate opinionated folks at Sudoroom && Noisebridge show me the way I'm glad I can visit places like Sudoroom and omni where people like me who don't always fit in can hang out!

Re: [sudo-discuss] Does this strike you as anti-intellectualism

Sounds like general backlash, not entirely gentrification or buses? pic.twitter.com/eoIECW9Bp4 We hosted their event. One Omni person was bottom lining it, but didn't read the full poster before approving. Another Omni person saw the posters and do-o-cratically crossed out the word "autistic". Then we asked the organizers to correct all their flyers, which they apparently did. Our community has no love for Google, gentrification, OR for ableism. We are sorry to have our name associated with any of those things. "Anti-intellectualism" is just a cheap shot which portrays tech workers as intellectual and everyone else as stupid. This is an economic issue. You should know better.

Re: [sudo-discuss] [omni-discuss] [CCL] Don't leave valuables in your car!

Just for the record, I've lived in Oakland almost a decade, I've driven to Omni 100+ times, and my car has NEVER been broken into. I'm pretty sure that's because I just don't leave shit in it.

SUDO Door

by Dustin Mabry

Hey folks! I, Dusty, and Anka have been putting in some time with the door to SUDO and CCL. We have reached a point were it is important to get information/input from you...as we can't proceed with this project without it. *The basic needs for this door:* - The door needs to sweep/open outward, toward the main exits of the building. As such it needs to be "hanged" in a way opposite of it's current (now former) position. - There needs to be a "panic bar" installed along with a nice "door closer". We have the door closer and a panic bar. The panic bar as selected by Marc (who knows more about this stuff than Anka and myself). *Needed from SUDO/CCL folks:* - In order to re-hang this door, we need to figure out how the panic bar will work with the existing door frame. - We need to have folks from SUDO relay information about, or instal (preferred), a panic bar system that will work with whatever electronic entrance mechanism you will want for your space. A note on Labor: Anka and myself, Dusty, are working with doors throughout the building. We are learning as we go and I feel that it's much slower than I anticipated. Each door in this place is different and most are quite wonky. I will be out of town for the month of July...and subsequently unable to work on this project until my return in August. We want you to have a great door for your space, and we want it to be exactly what you want. :). Can SUDO folks take this issue to a meeting and have it discussed (if appropriate)? Thanks! Dusty
