I hax0red your d00r!

by Lisha Sterling

I am a happy girl, sitting in the hackerspace feeling all pwnie, which is like a bronie, only not at all. (But I do like unicorns!) I was given the password to the downstairs door on Friday. I came inside imagining that there would be other people up here. Alas. There was no one. I tried the downstairs password on the upstairs door. FAIL! (Mine, not the system's or the hackers that put it together.) I could not get in. In fact, I didn't even know the right URL to *get* in the door. So I sat my bee-hind down on a couch in the common room, got on the wiki, looked up "door access", found the server name for the inside door access, and went there. It took me a few tries to figure out the password, but it was not a hard one. The door lock is kinda sticky. You can get the right password on the right URL and hear the mechanism trying to do its thing, but the lock doesn't fully unlock. The trick is to push the door closed tighter while the lock turns. So, yup, I'm inside. Between bringing cookies and breaking into the space, I guess I should fill out the web form and start calling myself a real sudoer now. :p How secure do we need these doors to be? If we have people in the space MOST of the time, then there is a lower need for security. With an often empty space, there's maybe more of a risk of theft, vandalism or other nastiness. Security through obscurity is no security at all. - Lish -- http://www.alwayssababa.com/

Re: [sudo-discuss] wiki fixed, reset your passwords + ROUND OF THANKS

by Marina Kukso

thank you so much bill! this was an absolutely urgent need and i would like to extend a million thank yous to you for fixing it. we will suffer through the lack of a single sign on, but that pain is worth it for the pleasure of having the wiki up and running. i'd like to also take a moment to thank others who have been doing awesome stuff for the sudo community (if i have left you off the list this is my oversight and not an intentional slight!): thanks to andrew & jordan for working on the outside door - this is imperative! thanks to mitch for the soldering workshop yesterday thanks to naomi for organizing the radio room (i'm sorry, but i unplugged the ethernet switch because it was giving me some trouble!) thanks to whoever has been getting the site up and running every time it goes down thanks to ray for feeding us at meetings and to all who have taken on the roles of exchequer, facilitator, note taker, and last minute etherpad switcher thanks to everyone who has been trying to improve our conflict resolution process thanks to morten for bringing his family by to see the space and say hello and thanks to everyone else who comes to the space, hacks at the space, brings others to the space, and works to improve things that allow our community to work better together and love sudo room. - marina On Sat, Mar 23, 2013 at 10:10 PM, William Budington <bill(a)inputoutput.io>wrote: > The wiki has been fixed, there was a problem with the wordpress common > login with mediawiki plugin.

Fwd: Re: Fwd: [Noisebridge-discuss] Consensus on Barring Shawn Landden from the Noisebridge space and community (Was Re: On Asking People To Leave (Was Re: Shawn L. ))

by netdiva

I think while its apparent that a discussion on issues of privilege, who is sheltered from what types of harm by existing social structures, and related topics are beyond the reach of this discussion, some of the statements i'm seeing in this sound like garden variety victim blaming. If that many people had been that overwhelmed by him, there wouldnt be criminal charges on record. On 3/23/2013 8:42 PM, Naomi Most wrote: > Yeah...

wiki fixed, reset your passwords

by William Budington

The wiki has been fixed, there was a problem with the wordpress common login with mediawiki plugin. This means, unfortunately, there is no unified login. So reset your wiki passwords https://sudoroom.org/wiki/page/Special:PasswordReset and you'll get a new temporary pw emailed to you. It is a long and arduous process, but the spirit of righteous revolutionary sudo solidarity, nay, Sudodarity, calls on us to bear it together. The spirit of Sudodarity will ring from our glorious Kopimistic towers and halls! Sudodarity Forever! Bill

Fwd: [Noisebridge-discuss] Consensus on Barring Shawn Landden from the Noisebridge space and community (Was Re: On Asking People To Leave (Was Re: Shawn L. ))

by rachel lyra hospodar

In case folks are curious about what is going on at NB regarding this individual who repeatedly stalked people to their homes. Whatever your take on safe spaces and openness, this discussion may help to inform your conception of potential dangers to different members of the community. I hope we all work to be open to the experiences, and needs, of others. R. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Snail" <snailtsunami(a)gmail.com> Date: Mar 21, 2013 12:18 PM Subject: [Noisebridge-discuss] Consensus on Barring Shawn Landden from the Noisebridge space and community (Was Re: On Asking People To Leave (Was Re: Shawn L. )) To: "Noisebridge-discuss" <Noisebridge-discuss(a)lists.noisebridge.net> Last night, we reached consensus on the decision to ban Shawn from Noisebridge and the community, which in full wording goes, "Shawn Landden is barred from Noisebridge. He is prohibited from entering the space or participating in the community." The statement is intentionally worded to so it can be interpreted to encompass DIGITAL as well as PHYSICAL space. You can see the meeting notes at https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Meeting_Notes_2013_03_19 I am relieved to see the community band together on this decision, without hesitation, and hope that it encourages people hurt by this person to return and continue to be a part of our community. :) Because we do care. And I always look forward to discussions on what we can do to do better next time, because it will happen again, at Noisebridge, at every hackerspace, and it will happen with people we like and are very attached to and we need to be prepared, mentally, to make difficult decisions. I know members of other hackerspaces like to joke about Noisebridge drama, but this is not silly Internet drama. These are real problems that happen in every hackerspace, every place on the planet, and we're trying to solve a problem that is unsolved (how can you guarantee the safety of people in a space, when that space is in a society where violence and threats against people is accepted, even lauded, because the recipients are women?). We talk about it openly, and I'm glad talk is open. Information is our best tool here.
