Hey gang, this just got sent to alumni of the Albany Civics Academy, and looks relevant to this group, so I thought I'd pass it along.

Noob Mesh Networking Question

by Andrew

Say you have two houses near each other that want to share their Internet connections with eacth other as one wireless node. So, for example, they could both connect to Neighborhood WIFI and get a connection that uses their combined bandwidth. How is this possible? What's the best way to set this up so that other houses could join in and share their bandwidth as well. Thanks, Andrew -- ------- Andrew Lowe Cell: 831-332-2507 http://roshambomedia.com

KopimismSect revival - Possible gitmerge with public school poetry group to create SudoRoom Chants

by Romy Ilano

Hello the Kopimism sect is now defunct. https://sudoroom.org/wiki/page/Kopimism Even though I'm not a full religious convert yet (personal reasons) I think this is really important and the SudoRoom family will benefit from the creation of RITUAL CHANTS AND PRAYERS -===anyone interested in contributions? These will most likely be published in small handbooks jack chiclet style and recited aloud at meetings with members holding hands and looking upwards with solemn facial expressions I will speak to the public school poetry class about potential ideas for the creation of SudoRoom Kopimistic ritual chants and prayers. All chants will most likely be recited Potential phraseology 510 is nottabout just tha dough sudo is a do-ology

lost clipper card at sudo room

by Naomi Most

Looks like I dropped my Clipper card somewhere in the space. I don't have time to try and get it back, so if you find it and need it, it's yours. If you don't need it so much, pass it to someone who does. It's not connected to my bank account or anything, so don't expect it to autoload. :) --Naomi -- Naomi Theora Most naomi(a)nthmost.com +1-415-728-7490 skype: nthmost http://twitter.com/nthmost

Friday Filosophy, April 12: Crowdfunding!?!

by Eddan Katz

Running late - Filo speciality may not be part of today's session. Hopefully the Athenian Deli will be open (an uncertain assertion). I propose we discuss Crowdfunding, as part of the effort to stimulate our exploration of these sorts of sources of revenue. The discussion will be continued on the Sudo-Crowd mailing list (sudo-crowd(a)lists.sudoroom.org) The following blurb is also for the TechLiminal Lunch Box next Wed., Apr. 17. Please contact Evan Savage through Tech Liminal for more about that. Crowdfunding. What does it mean and how does it work? Why is it the biggest buzz word since social media? Will it really circumvent the flow of investment capital to bypass Wall Street? Can it stimulate new jobs in the small business enterprise and contractors markets? Is there anything more to this than passing around a hat for donations amongst your friends and family in order to do a project you and they know will never be completed? What is the Securities Exchange Commission worries about that is delaying their implementation of the Crowdfunding provisions of the JOBS Act, which was supposed to go into effect in January? We will address these questions, more or less. We will at the very least read all of them out loud at the beginning. Please also note the text below about the wiki, mailing list, and background resources I had sent around a few weeks ago. >> We will be collecting background resources and commentary on crowdfunding to fill out the JOBS Act page on the Sudo wiki -http://sudoroom.org/wiki/JOBS_Act. >> >> To sign up for the list, please go to: >> http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-crowd. >> >> In addition to discussion, we will use the mailing list to collaborate on crowdfunding related projects. The first one being the drafting of public comments on behalf of Sudo Room (http://www.sec.gov/spotlight/jobsactcomments.shtml). You can see the comments currently submitted to the SEC athttp://www.sec.gov/comments/jobs-title-iii/jobs-title-iii.shtml. >> >> There are a bunch of them, so I think the most substantive comments to perhaps start with are the two Rockethub white papers on Regulation (http://www.sec.gov/comments/jobs-title-iii/jobstitleiii-39.htm) and Implementation (http://www.sec.gov/comments/jobs-title-iii/jobstitleiii-39.htm). sent from eddan.com

Your Are Subiir! [Subiir bottling after next Wednesday meeting - you're invited!]

by Morten H. D. Fuglsang

Hi all! Subiir batch #2 is almost ready to be bottled. Exciting! Mr. Juul and myself will be bottling next Wednesday after our meeting, and want to invite the curious beer connoisseur in all of you to come and bottle your very own special Subiir. It works like this: * Bring one/more bottles fit for bottling (beer/soda bottles all work, as long as non twist-top) - we encourage you to find a special one, and maybe even DECORATE IT! WOW! * We will help you clean it and bottle it. (Optional: * you might think, "nice", and donate for the next brew) * Patience becomes your BEST FRIEND! You will enjoy ~3 weeks of looking - not touching - your cute bottle. * After about 3 weeks, we will have a nice batch #2 release - and you are super welcome to pop open your own Subiir there! Or wherever else you might please. Hooray! Make a great day, Morten
