i was just so blown away at the crypto party. all these smart hackers
sticking it to "the man."
i'm just so impressed at how passionate everyone is. why i was there and
the passion just showed. people were going to go hiking in the sierras.
they were going to fly to cuba.
sudoroom is such a brilliant place full of smart people. wow, the passion
just dazzles me. i am so impressed at all the after parties, and how truly
full of passion and genuine people are.
i am just so lucky to be part of sudoroom and all the smart people. i will
just dive into making promotional comics to teach small children how to use
3d printers now.
viva sudoroom!
it was so awesome to see so many good things at the sudoroom crypto party
saturday night. i dropped by and was really impressed. it is so cool to see
all these smart people taking things into their own hands.
viva sudoroom!
Hi guys! So I just got into oakland and was treated with a big bag of trash
outside the doorway. Excellent! Given the previous email I sent, a great
time to test the theory. So going through it made this AWESOME thing, which
is a miniature greenhouse (it's there, plant something in it) and gonna be
sweet if hemp goes in.
Do you think it's a good idea, that we could when we have a party have an
"afterparty" in the morning where we put on a bunch of music and hack stuff
or upcycle it, recycle it, and see how little we can get the stuff reduced
to? (there's really not any such thing as trash (except WalMart), think
cardboard, plastic bag, plastic, metal, aluminum, etC!)
re negative value, some guy I guess actually got pretty emotional about it.
So I hacked his message into the meme. <3

So enjoy, and here's a video. Because I'm at the sudo room and can't get a
working wifi+ sound (can we.. nvm), you don't get the one with nudity in it.

Hey all,
There was a link sent to the Nerds for Nature email list about using community photographs to collect data for natural spaces, parks, etc. You set up a single station with a guide for your camera, let folks take photographs with any device, gather them up, then use a photo stitcher to put together a timelapse.
I think this is an excellent way to document moments at sudo negotiated by the consent of individuals and through human action, rather than a webcam and automated constant stream.
Please leave the pedestal in its current position, there is tape on the floor so you can replace it if necessary.
Thanks!
