They are still using a website from 2004. and want to create a new (probably wordpress) site. They are looking to contract someone to build it pretty immediately.

Laser gantry, oh gantry, where art thou drivers?

by Adam Munich

Hi all, The full spectrum laser cutter I brought to the hacker pace has been out of service for some time, after Brendon's attempt to fix its loose keyswitch ended in board-popping disaster. (Shit happens, **but ermehgawd always remove power before fixing circuits guize**) Anyway, I bought some new stepper motor drivers to replace the burnt ones on the controller, but unfortunately there seems to be more wrecked with it than just that simple fix. I'd love to get this thing working for the community, though, that's a bit hard with no brains for the machine. A new board from full spectrum is $1500, but I contacted them with a "we're a poor hackerspace" card and they'd be willing to replace it for $250 if I mail in the old controller, which I feel is within raise-able reach. This would give us full access to their software suite / print driver, and a reliable machine. The other option, suggested by rayc is to use an arduino, stepper controllers and a g-code generating toolchain to run the machine. While I don't see any reason why that couldn't work, I feel like that might be a bit awkward for people who wish to use the cutter, and further makes the guide I wrote kind of useless. http://hack.rit.edu/tools/full-spectrum-laser-cutter/ As a community, what do y'all believe is best?

Since we're on the topic of keeping bathrooms clean, I have some other recommendations as to how to keep bathrooms clean. See "Keeping Toilets Clean" inside "The Hovering Cycle" http://thomaslevine.com/!/hovering-cycle/#keepingtoiletsclean and sections 5.2 and 5.3 of "Unsanitary conditions in the Risley Hall bathrooms". http://thomaslevine.com/!/risley-toilets/risley_toilets.pdf Tom

by April Glaser

Hi everyone, The potential sudoroom lawyer Kyle (awesome person) has drafted an engagement letter to get us started with becoming a 501c3. Here it is: https://github.com/sudoroom/lawyer-engagement-letter I think it looks solid, but if anyone has any concerns, please let me know. I do not think that I'll make tomorrow's meeting, but if there are concerns, let me know and I'll communicate those. I have a meeting with Kyle this Friday with Julio. w00t! -- 0x54FC570B

Electrical cords running out to the street

by niki

There's an electrical cord that has been hanging out of the window by the front door. I think it's okay to let community members use electricity while they are here, but we need to communicate that cords should be brought back in when they're finished using them. I'm not sure who talked to the gentleman who is charging his motorbike - he said it was brought up at Sudo room - but I asked him not to leave the cord out there and if that message could be reinforced that would be great! <3 N

Re: [sudo-discuss] I'm going to pee sitting down at the omni: A call for others to join.

by Ed Biow

Good idea M^6 , and Einstein & I will start dropping trou, but I find I _can_ actually can get almost of all my Goldwater in the receptacle despite my underwhelming endowment, but only if I kneel in someone else's splatter. Luckily, I always wear shorts, so its easy to wipe off my knees. My pal David Rovics wrote a song apropos of this issue, Stand Up For Your Rights But Sit Down To Piss: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STKDSMPzneE BTW, what's the story on the urinals in the head in the hallway to the sudoroom? One of them was operational, but I notice they are all cordoned off now. Do we need funds to fix them or are they destined for the knackers? > Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2015 21:03:29 -0800 > From: Maximilian Klein <isalix(a)gmail.com> > To: sudo-discuss <sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org>, > "discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org" <discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org> > Subject: [sudo-discuss] I'm going to pee sitting down at the omni: A > call for others to join. > Message-ID: > <CAKbmofgapiMzQ2PCLg3Y=774wrfP=M6tvRq-z2LQSd4sLzACvg(a)mail.gmail.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > Please excuse the unusual nature of this email and take me seriously for a > moment. > > I have started the practice of sitting down to pee at the Omni, which is > not something I do anywhere else in my life.

Tom's data indicates that neither cis men and cis women can be fully trusted to keep toilets clean. The solution is clear: only trans and genderqueer people should be allowed to pee at the Omni.
