Anyone know of available housing/rooom

by Liberty Madison

THE SITUATION: The amazing Piedmont home I am in is being sold in a messy divorce. The owner is wonderful,however her divorce is now calling for her to sell her million dollar home so her husband can be paid his half of the equity. When I first moved in it seemed the divorce was dragging but I never thought he would force her and his 9 year old daughter out of this wonderful Piedmont neighborhood! I have never met him (they were divorcing before I arrived) but I will say I am not fond of this. So because of this and this reason ONLY I am now thrust on SF Bay Area housing market. I just found this out YESTERDAY and I have to MOVE BY APRIL 1 (WTW!) A week! ANYWAY Wanted to tap the Sudo Network to see if anyone knew of a room/space/etc or knew someone who knew someone who know who I need to know! Reply and I can send you info about me A little insight I AM the ideal Human Flatmate! I love making smoothies, I heart cupcakes, love cooking vegan/vegetarian meals, love animals, non smoker, non drinker, responsible, and I have tons of cool FREE perks to events! (The events are only exciting if you are into tech/nerd/game stuff otherwise just control x that last part) If you can reach out to your networks! I would appreciate any direction or hacking on this! Thanks Sudoers libertymadison(a)gmail.com 415.937.3785

Re: [sudo-discuss] Evictions in California

by Vicky Knox

Thanks Jeremy for the Oakland Wiki shoutout! Yar, the people who came to Sudo last night at the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project data vis team. <https://antievictionmap.squarespace.com/> I'm in direct contact with them and will forward the OW article along. They are potentially interested in using LocalWiki (Oakland Wiki is a part of the LW network) as a tool for collective storytelling and resource-sharing. We'll be presenting to them next week. I can keep the list posted. ;]

Banning Xavier

by Yardena Cohen

At this point there have been several informal calls for Xavier to be banned. After last night's events I reluctantly agree that he should not be welcome at Sudo until he's accountable for his behavior: * he made threats of violence towards somebody at Sudo * he did something similar at Rock Paper Scissors * he zealously defended other acts of violence committed by a friend of his I'm willing to act as a mediator, but I'm not confident that the problem can be resolved. So I formally propose that he be banned from our space for an indefinite period. Are there any objections?

Need a little feedback

by Pete Forsyth

Dear Sudoroom, it's 10:40pm on a Friday. Most of you are partying your ass off, and I love you for it. Is anybody in possession of most of their brain? I have a little thing, and I need a little feedback. Got 15 minutes? I would so love to hear from you. Please reply if you are not at the club. -Pete

April is Design Month at your friendly neighboring hackerspace

by David Rorex

Just passing this on, some people might be interested: Starting April 5, Ace Monster Toys Hackerspace in Oakland is pleased to host a month of design courses and workshops with Régis Lemberthe of A&Ré Design. Originally trained as an industrial designer, Régis graduated with his Master's Degree in Humanitarian Design And Sustainable Living before moving to Berlin and getting involved in the local maker community. He now presents several different workshops there, in parallel with his activities as part of A&Ré Design Studio. From his description of the Design Tour (http://2014.design-tour.org): "One of the most appropriate and exciting answers to mass production and consumption, the maker movement has in the last years gained considerable recognition. Fab labs and hacker spaces are being created in every major city, offering those familiar with low-scale productions techniques access to adequate machinery, as well as training for everyone else. Skill sharing in fab labs is based on the know-how and experience of artists, designers, makers, programmers and hackers committed to making production accessible to all. Yet, while some techniques are widely spread, others sadly remain more confidential. After a few years spent facilitating events at Betahaus Berlin, French designer Régis Lemberthe goes on tour - a series of craft workshops and social+collaborative design courses hosted in maker spaces of various different cities - lasting for a month, wherever interest and facilities are. It has started in 2013 in Betahaus Berlin and will continue in early 2014 in the US, Canada and London before proceeding towards south-east Asia. " List of Events: - Upcycling Lecture (free) http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172725002/ - Social & Humanitarian Design Lecture (free) http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172728292/ - Design 101: A 4 part class series on beginning design thinking: http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172725702/ - Product & System Design for Social Good: An 8 part class series on humanitarian design: http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172727482/ - Concrete Objects Cast In Reclaimed Materials: A 2 part workshop on creating designed objects from concrete (http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172728842/ or http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172728632/) - Low Cost Silicone Mold Workshop: A one part workshop on making cheap silicone molds from hardware store materials (http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172729242/ or http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172729042/) - Reclaimed Paper Pulp Lampshade Workshop: A one part workshop on using paper pulp paste as a design material (http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172729742/ or http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172729882/) - Pimp Your Hood with Collaborative Design: A fast-paced collaborative design session, includes a buffet dinner (http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172731372/ or http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/events/172731272/) Visit the MeetUp calendar (http://www.meetup.com/Ace-Monster-Toys/#calendar) for full event details and to sign up.

International Community/Mesh Network Coalition

by Marc Juul

Hi Labitators! We're starting a coalition for an international coalition of free/libre community and mesh networks. One of the first goals is to define a license for free networks similar to a free software license, so that all of the current free networks can connect to each other. We're trying to get funding from the Night Foundation and your tweets, facebook likes, etc. will help a lot! Here's the main link with more info: https://www.newschallenge.org/challenge/2014/submissions/toward-a-network-c… Also, thanks to everyone from Labitat who helped fund our local Oakland mesh project! Here's a small status update: We've developed a new OpenWRT compatible firmware based on German and Slovenian projects + our own code. We are currently testing ~25 nodes deployed around the bay area to find and eliminate the worst bugs before a wider release of ~100 nodes. We've been developing an automated mesh node deployment system that allows us to take supported routers out of the box and flash and configure them for use in our network with minimal human intervention. It is almost complete, and it uses the sticker printer program developed by Asbjorn from Labitat to automatically print a sticker with your basic info (e.g. your default password) that we stick on the the routers before shipping to new node operators. One of the awesome things about our firmware is that it allows you to choose how much of your own internet connection you want to share with the mesh, and all mesh traffic is routed through a VPN owned by the local mesh organization which handles all abuse complaints or legal inquiries. This functionality makes the mesh nodes immediately useful, even before we reach a node density where new nodes are likely to be within reach of existing nodes. This concept was first implemented by wlan slovenja so all credit to them! Our local non-profit mesh organization is called sudo mesh ( https://sudomesh.org ) and the network is called People's Open Network ( https://peoplesopen.net ). sudo mesh is providing a firmware and support for getting on peoplesopen.net and will start selling pre-flashed routers for peoplesopen.net later this year. sudo mesh is focused on Oakland. We are making sudo mesh an easily forkable organization, with all material (legal documents, code, marketing material, documentation) available under open licenses, and we are encouraging others to create groups like sudo mesh that support peoplesopen.net in other geographic areas. If someone wants to start a mesh organization in e.g. Copenhagen, as a fork of sudo mesh, then reach out to info(a)sudomesh.org and we will do our best to facilitate! -- marc/juul
