Hey all,
I just registered a BACH assembly at 31C3 for folks to hang out at. It's
on the wiki: https://events.ccc.de/congress/2014/wiki/Assembly:BACH
If you're bringing neat things and want a space to show them off then
feel free to add them to the page.

Orange road bike stolen outside of omni - says falcon on it. Has a basket and white handlebar tape. If anyone sees it, plz let me know, it is my friend's bike!
My number is 6096513306
$99:

Plugging directly into a 'normal' DVI adapter ie single-link DVI will not
support the display's native resolution of 2560x1600. Single-link adapters
will instead deliver a maximum of half the supported resolution, 1280x800.
Single-link adapters include the typical Apple-style DVI>MiniDP adapter
dongle most are used to using.. See:
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201927
So if anyone feels like giving the video group a christmas present of this
pricey adapter cable, that'd be really great! It would be kept with the
monitor.
Best,
David
The amazing human Erik Strals, of Immersio, 3D-scanned the ballroom & Sudo
the other night.
It took him quite a long time and was a labor of love. The results are in
and they are SO cool.
I love this human!
He even offered to come back and help do more of the building! yay! Yippee!
This will be so useful for our architectural / permit work especially too!
So great -
Thank you Eriks!!

Hi fellow sudoers,
We'll be hosting a private event for members of the Real Vegan Cheese team
and some of our IndieGogo donors in CCL this evening, starting at 7pm.
We'll be doing a tasting of some existing vegan cheeses (the nut and
soy-based varieties). I would prefer not to have random walk-ins during the
event, but I expect there may be some leftover cheeses and beers to taste
afterwards.
Thanks!
Patrik

It would take some work to get me to trust a scheme like this... and
it would create social pressure to accept whatever results...

The landlord had a video surveillance system, so it was moot.

Yes, securing their books after-hours.
I visited the Bogotá hackerspace, Hackbo, a month or so ago, and chatted to
them a bit about how the space is working. It's a really nice hackerspace
-- in a residential block, but with four or so big well-equipped rooms, and
with a really busy community, and whiteboards full of really detailed
ongoing projects, which I sort of feel is the real metric of a great
hackerspace.
One of the projects that has shifting from being a prototype to being a
potential full-time work for a bunch of the key hackers is this:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hpsaturn/lumera-transform-your-camera-…
It's a linux-based plugin for Digital SLR cameras (if you don't see your
camera listed, ask, because they're adding them as they go) that gives you
bluetooth LE remote operation, background transfer to online picture
services via your phone or wifi. The hardware will be openhardware, the
code is FLOSS. The device is going to sell for $150 USD ($170 canadian --
they're working with a Canadian group to do the logistics).
Anyway, I just noticed that they're 3 days to go on their kickstarter, but
still have a way to go. I don't have any financial connection with these
guys or the hackerspace, but I try to plug good hacking projects when I
can. I think this'd be a fun gadget to have if you have a DSLR and are
interested in doing some connected messing with it, either with the
existing features of Lumera or extending it.
That's all!
Feel free to forward this around to any communities you think might be
interested!
