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. *

request for maker help, update & invite

by J Clark

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 … [View More]

Decode -- a sudo room community call to action

by Matthew Senate

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 … [View More]

Openwrt success! ...now what? Fun/useful networking projects?

by Pete Forsyth

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 … [View More]

Stop with the race baiting immediately

by The Batkid

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 … [View More]

New Spaces, Sudo Room, and the Public School.

by David Keenan

Hello, The new potential space on 8th & Alice by Laney sounds cool. On its face it seems about the same price per square foot as the Omni (base+projected NNN). I'd love to check it out. I realize the landowners of this space are trying to attract light-industrial hackerspacey folk, ostensibly in an effort to incubate startups out of Laney, so I'm not sure how the Bay Area Public School might fit into this scheme as a possible co-tenant, and I guess that concerns me in a worried-for-the-… [View More]
