Hey all,
Yes! The time has been set for the long awaited Subiir brew. Marc and I
will fire up the mash at 10am, and it will be kickass. We will make stout.
Again, I hope some of you will join to learn the Subiir brewing setup so
that the gear can be used more and that we can all have access to more
great, cheap, hacked beer.
Make a great thanksgiving,
Morten
I've wandered out into the world, parts of San Francisco.
Not to be negative, but it just seems like a cold-hearted, empty hipster
high school popularity compared to SudoRoom and Noisebridge.
I felt like I was wandering through a world of plastic alternative barbie
and ken dolls. It is really OK though because I don't expect everyone to be
my friend.
Even if we don't always get along, and people do weird stuff like shit in
elevators, piss each other off, we should stand together.* we do have a
heart. *
Yes Marcus. You're so correct.
Cappuccinos and cupcakes..lol. I prefer the grit. Keep that acorn affordable to P.O.C.
One Love

Sudoers,
First, the request. I'm in a pinch, wonder if any Sudoers might help me out.
Two of us (Mike of OmNomProject and I) are trying to create a maker space in San Leandro, at the south end, in Bayfair Center (the mall at the Bay Fair BART stop). Yes, a maker space in a retail mall. It's an experiment. Mike and I have mostly committed to be open this Black Friday weekend to help offset the inhumanity of the holidays. Only problem: Mike is sick, has been sleeping for the last two days, and will be contagious for some days after he's feeling better. I advised him to stay home, which leaves the weekend to me. On our schedule we have the easy, proven activities: bunny copters for smaller kids, crypto adventures for the mid-range kids, a 3D printer for the bigger kids, and a few humble things to sell (SparkFun inventor kits, soft circuit kits, and some blank greeting cards). OMG!
The request: can anyone come help out for an hour or two this weekend? Bring your own activities if you'd like, or just come help color the bunnies. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated, good karma abounds, and many kids will thank you.
The update: East Bay Maker Labs!
The invite: if anyone is curious about what's happening in San Leandro, come join us for a Meet the CIO: Cool Tools for Makers event next Friday eve. Yes, conflict with First Friday acknowledged, not much I can do about that. Here are details: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/meet-the-cio-san-leandro-by-design-cool-tools-… 3D printers! 3D scanners! Laser cutters! and more, oh my! (Hey, it's all new to this community. Everyone starts somewhere.)
With best holiday wishes and warm appreciation for Sudo Room,

Hey all,
At last night's meeting I shared that many recent threads on the email list
and off-list have made me feel hurt emotionally. I get the impression that
there is a feeling of a lack of resolution, and that major issues get left
ignored to fester.
I need help--I want to ask sudoers to *decode* our communications to get
closer to core issues that we can learn to address to improve as a
community to perform our values
https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Articles_of_Association#Values
I have reached out to find resources to help us grow emotionally and
socially over the coming months, and I encourage others to do the same.

p.s. For some time, I was burnt out on the sudo-discuss email list. In the
space, on frustrated occasions, I spouted verbal negativity about the list
and how I felt derailment, non-sequitur, and miscommunication promoted
further negativity and did not reflect sudo's values. However, I realized
this isn't how I feel about the sudo-discuss list. I have always felt it is
necessary to embrace our online communications--and community--as much as
any other contributing element or energy in sudo room. For this reason, it
is even more crucial that I extend my personal appreciation, offer
vindication for any time (all cycles) spent on sudo room, and remind myself
publicly that our discussion list is a core component to running a creative
community and hacker space.
Dear Friends :
Please join us for the next special Public School meeting concerning THE OMNI (the new space on Shattuck Avenue),
Thursday, December 5, 7PM @ 2141 Broadway (the Public School classroom).
There's plenty to discuss, & many exciting new groups are interested --
This meeting is open to everyone, so please join us -- & spread the word !
Love & solidarity -- David Brazil
Gals 'n guys: I am rather pleased with myself. Last night I was able to
install OpenWRT, a free firmware replacement, on a D-Link router.
If I were able to get QoS working on it (I haven't been), there's a
possibility I might put this to use as my main router.
But considering that that's a long shot for me (I'm not exactly one to go
around building my own linux kernels and such, though I'm not necessarily
opposed to trying...) I'm looking for ideas about fun projects to try with
it.
I know there's a group working on neighborhood mesh networks, and would be
super psyched to experiment if there's anybody within range of my house!
(Adeline betw. 32nd and 34th.) Unfortunately I can't make Thursday evening
meetings, or I'd come check in with you guys in person.
Any other fun projects anybody would suggest?
Also, as long as I'm on the topic -- I have a few network devices I'm not
currently using, and would gladly loan/donate (or in the case of the last
2, maybe sell for a few bucks) to anybody looking to hack on them (or just
put them to use).
- Netgear ADSL 2+ modem DM111P (note, this is a v1, which I was *not*
able to get to work in bridging mode for my Sonic connection. It should be
fine if you want to use its built-in routing capabilities.)
- Linksys 802.11b router with 4 port switch (BEFW11S4 v4 -- yeah, it's
ancient :)
- Belkin N300 wireless router/switch (model F9k1002 v4)
- Arris DOCSIS 3 cable modem with 2 phone jacks (model TM722G)

I don't understand the strange self flagellating threads about gentrifying people out of Oakland while searching for a space.
It's not productive and I truly do not understand what the end goal is here. We're not going to solve racism in the bay area
with the mailing list.
It's ok to displace the Chinese, but not blacks? WTF?
Incentives applicable at this location:
* The City of Oakland is offering business license and sales tax abatement as incentives
* The State of California's manufacturing equipment sale and use tax exemptions
* The State of California's California Competes income tax credit
* The State of California's New Employment Credit
* No African Americans would be displaced, only Chinese
