This Friday's title is called Nothing (1hr30). Directed by Vincenzo Natali,
2003 - Rated R.
After an especially terrible day, two friends find the oitside world has
become a nothingy void.
It's one of my favorite incredibly quirky movies, I hope you all enjoy it.
See you at 7 in the basement!

so far, all the robot programs we have extracted have coordinates stored
in PULSE format, meaning that all positions are stored as a list of
positions for the six axes. This means we have been trying to create a
math model of the robot's joints to get it to do our bidding.
however, today I was reading page 106 of this document:
http://spaz.org/~jake/robot/479236-17-Communications.pdf
and it explains more about the format of a Job file:
///PULSE : Indicates position data (pulse counts)
///RECTAN : Indicates position data (rectangular coordinates)
so far we have only seen PULSE, but we could try RECTAN and see if we can
feed the robot rectangular coordinates, like we do to a 3D printer.
also there is the line starting with ///ATTR
///ATTR a-p : Job data attributes
... m = Position data format, 0 pulse, 1 rectangular ...
and
///FRAME coordinate system : Identifies the job coordinate system
BASE = base coordinates
ROBOT = robot coordinates N = user coordinate number (1 - 8)
also, we should realize that the line ///NPOS describes the number of
coordinates in a job, and until now I thought we could simply add or
remove coordinate lines and that would be enough, but probably not.
See how the NPOS line always matches the number of coordinates (of each
type) in the jobs we have saved so far:

all our jobs are FRAME BASE and coordinates in PULSE. I don't know how to
create a job any other way, so we will have to experiment.

LOL and Sudo have a long history of cross pollination and overlap of
people. LOL is probably not moving anytime soon, especially not to
Temescal. Monday isn't a general meeting, it's an open hack night!
Also, LOL has existed for longer than Sudo and I believe it was Jen
Mei who first formally "reached out" to us. :)
The East Bay Depot for Creative Reuse called about four metallic outdoorsy chairs that Omni bought that have just been waiting for pickup. I did the deed, they are in the ex-barroom… they are off-white, a bit rusty, and there is a decorative sash around the lot… creative reuse indeed. If these weren’t sudo chairs, would someone pass this along to the omni list. I’m not a member.
Has Sudo reached out to LOL? They hold general meetings on Monday at
7:30pm. Would be a great ally for Sudo and Omni Commons as a whole!

This might be a decent group to contact if folks are looking for more
potential collectives.

Hi all!
I'll be hanging out in la Sudo Room tomorrow, from 4:30 to 6:30pm, for la
Noob Night!
Woohoo!
Come one, come all, All ye Noobs and yet-to-be-converteds!
We'll all learn some terrible origami together, and talk about things like
hacking, pasta, arts and crafts, and why walruses don't lay eggs!
Afterwards, we'll have our weekly, official, sit-down conversational,
no-movement dance party (yay!), where you can learn more about what
projects, issues, ideas and concerns Sudo members have on their minds!
It'll be a gas!
See you there!

there is an air compressor in sudoroom, labeled DO NOT HACK
if you labeled it, you should write your name and/or contact information
on the note, otherwise it might get hacked anyway.
can i get an AMEN about DNH stickers needing more information than simply
DO NOT HACK?
-jake
---------- Forwarded message ----------
yeah, that's the one
I'm not sure why it would be labelled "do not hack", as Juan handed it off basically as an "up for grabs" but maybe he changed his mind or I misunderstood.

it (the blue campbell-hausfeld air compressor in the corner) is clearly marked with a large DO NOT HACK note. however, there is no name on the note.
is that the one you're talking about?
