Hi, I hope this message is OK for the list -- I feel there's probably a lot
of relevant knowledge in this community.
I have a friend -- not a close friend, but somebody I care about and trust
-- who is needing to leave her home due to a volatile situation with her
boyfriend, very suddenly. She is OK for tonight, but she said she has
contacted some shelters and has been put on a wait list, and is not sure
what she can expect.
If anybody knows of good resources, or just has any words of advice, please
send them to me off list. I don't have much experience with something like
this -- I think she is very isolated here, her family is very far away, and
I want to at least point her in a good direction.
Many thanks for any help.
Pete
Hey Everyone,
Great party last night!! Lots of really cool people showed up, including a bunch from Sudo Room. Thanks for coming!
There was lots of great food, drinks, fantastic music, and dancing! I'm told we raised about $1,400! And Marcel got one of our 3D printers to print during the party -- and printed out our logo. :)
Naomi took that photo.
Here's a link to the photos I took at the party last night:

BTW, our IndieGoGo campaign is now above $16,000, with 10 days remaining. But we still need to spread the word so we can raise enough funds to pay our electrician and pay IndieGoGo. So, please spread the word!
Best,
Mitch.
Dear Friends :
I would like to request time during this coming Wednesday's sudo meeting to discuss the revised voting proposal for the Omni.
I understand there are concerns about this proposal coming from the sudo community, and I want to work them out in your meeting so we can pass this proposal.
Please let me know when I should come, & thanks for your consideration !
Love & solidarity -- David Brazil

okay so we really really almost got the robot working tonight
we replaced the memory battery, and temporarily disconnected the other
memory battery and then initialized its brains..
and now it seems ready to turn on and move! but when you press SERVO ON
it tries to turn on the motors, and then says there's an error.
I think it's because we don't have three-phase power for it. But i
believe we can simulate the signal of a third phase for the circuitry, so
that it will think that everything is OK, and then it will act normally.
in the meantime, i discovered a treasure trove of documentation. If you
were asking before how to operate this thing (once it's functional) here's
the answer: read these PDFs.

Hello everyone,
I posted this event on Introduction to Javascript today:
https://sudoroom.org/events/intro-to-javascript/
This is intended for beginners but all skill levels are welcome. I know for
me initially learning to program was a bit daunting. There are lots of
technologies and programming languages out there. It can be hard to figure
out what to learn. Through this series it would be cool to get people on a
track of learning how to learn programming. Open to everyone, totally free,
6pm today

Danielle got a huge pile of yummy food donated by a farmers market in Oakland for the Noisebridge Grand Re-Opening Party tomorrow: Hummus, veggies, olives, other dips, a ridiculous amount of strawberries . . .
But she needs someone to grab the stuff from her tonight, since she has an early morning appointment tomorrow.
Anyone have a vehicle and wanna help grab the food from Oakland to Noisebridge tonight? If so, please contact me off-list, and I'll give you Danielle's contact info.
Thanks,
Mitch.
HI all,
I just joined the mailing list not too long ago. I was going to stop
by over the weekend to checkout the space and meet whoever is lurking
around. I just wanted to see if there was any trick to getting in.
Noisebridge has that quirky phone that never seems to work.
Also, I'm a tech/linux enthusiast/developer/foss hippy that moved to the
bay area a few years ago. Would love to get more involved especially as
I'm debating moving to Oakland at some point in the foreseeable future.
