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! ~ Korl 1.510.689.4484 STP/ eske silver

robot job files and rectangular coordinates

by Jake

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: https://github.com/jerkey/yasnac/tree/master/jobs 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. -jake

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. :)

chairs!

by Ben Burke

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.

It's Newbie Night at Sudo Room again!

by Eske Silver

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! ~ Korl

air compressor in sudo

by Jake

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. On Tue, Oct 7, 2014 at 8:13 PM, Jake <jake(a)spaz.org> wrote: 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? -jake
