Re: [sudo-discuss] [Mesh] So, about those Meraki Sparky boards

by mattsenate＠gmail.com

Thanks to this hack, we should be able to use a noisebridge-donated lot of ~200 sparky routers for https://peoplesopen.net/ Cheers! // Matt ----- Reply message ----- From: "Adrian Chadd" <adrian.chadd(a)gmail.com> To: "mesh(a)lists.sudoroom.org" <mesh(a)lists.sudoroom.org> Subject: [Mesh] So, about those Meraki Sparky boards Date: Wed, Mar 26, 2014 18:34 A little drinking at Noisebridge and some poking from JC got me thinking about the Sparky boards. So I came up to Sudo and worked with Marc to figure it out. The TL;DR version: It's an AR2317 and you have a watchdog timer, but it doesn't actually reset the unit. It just posts an interrupt. It turns out GPIO6 is the "pat to stop it resetting" line. So, the details: I first did "help" at the redboot prompt. I found "bdshow", which is the "Atheros board info."

Watchdog GPIO pin 6? What's that? After manually checking out the watchdog registers via 'x', we discovered that it would count down to 0 and not reset. So, hm. Maybe the GPIO 6 wire is actually the right thing to pat. And yes, the board doesn't reset when you pat GPIO 6.

Re: [sudo-discuss] membership reboot?

by Vicky Knox

I sympathize with Eddan's concerns that it is in the logic of open knowledge systems to celebrate the [CTRL]+[c]/[CTRL]+[v] of said systems. That said, I think that talking about there being more POC and women in the Hub than in Sudo Room isn't a fair assessment because said assessment doesn't touch on Yar's concerns of specifically *class*/*economic* exclusion. If we are going to talk about diversity and inclusion we need to talk intersectionally. (Not to offend you, Eddan. I think it's important to bring up this point since it hasn't been brought up yet.) HEY!! LOOK! There's this Oakland Wiki article on the Signature Development Group that has questions that need your answering!! < http://oaklandwiki.org/Signature_Development_Group> :D :D

The long-term blocker for this was insurance, which Matt finally bought for us a month or two ago. Last I heard, he'd notified Laurie of the insurance and we're still waiting on a response from her. It might help to poke our landlords about it again.

Head's up! Carpet-cleaning 3:30pm Thu (tomoro)

by David Keenan

The common area and some other rooms are to be carpet-cleaned tomorrow starting at 3:30. I'm not sure where they'll start or how long it will take, but George has asked for our help in moving furniture about. He will also be cleaning one of the empty rooms and the roof starting 630. I know Thursdays are a big day for us and this is not much notice, but i am glad carpets are getting cleaned. Feel like we should scotchguard the whole place.. "just so you know the carpet cleaners come at 3 30 thurs to do the upstairs at Sean's expense and Sean's group 3 helpers are coming thursday to vacuum the yellow room and help me clean the roof at about 6 30. {...} they may be asked to move around, Damien from spotless is very professional and the machines are not too loud. If anybody could help with moving furniture in a way that it ends up located in a suitable location for your meetings and classes and the dirty parts of the carpet are cleaned"

Free Culture and Social Justice (CC Salon San Francisco) this Thurs at 6pm

by Matthew Senate

https://sudoroom.org/ai1ec_event/free-culture-and-social-justice-cc-salon-i… I plan to attend, I especially want to discuss with free culture folks a notion I have been pondering for some time now. It is one thing to employ a license that sets clear and legally-robust terms for the re-purposing of creative content covered under copyright. It is another to pursue, in any given endeavor, the proliferation of knowledge, in all its formats and expressions, and not to make that knowledge scarce, especially as a source of benefits (e.g. income). I am getting the feeling that there is something essential in this thought, that articulates a notion (a side) of the moral basis of free (as in freedom) and openness that is very practical, and critical. I'd like to discuss this with more folks, perhaps at this event on Thursday. Hack on. // Matt

Sudo what- keeping mushrooms and stuff.

by Eddie Che

Hey there, do you guys want to try keeping some of these super simple waste materials rapidly replicating food self-sufficiency starters in your space derr? They would all fit in the little party greenhouse which may or may not still be currently occupying the windowsill, and you could give all the anon strikers dey nutrients. Profile is, like this: They will fit in the area that the current party box occupies, and be less than an iota of money. LOL I give near complete nutrition to hackers, freedom lovers, nearly any alt-civ land project and astronauts. :D The oyster mushrooms eat (preferably sterilized) cardoard, paper, coffee grounds, and straw, as well as even other things like denim fabric and toilet paper rolls (<3), the spirulina algaes eat baking soda saltwater that's more alkaline than any other bacteria and air, so it's not like there's really any competition there they'll survive even in less sterile conditions. They ship in jars but like bigger spaces or, more jars. If this was a sudo room dating email, these would be your new pets. ..they do but play a role in the plan ^.^ <3! -- Eddie Che on all social networks
