Hi folks,
I still have a few gallons of some hefeweizen I brewed - not my finest but it gets the job done - and my buddy is repoing his kegs from me sunday morning. If anyone has a CO2 tank and a faucet, I will contribute the fuller of the 2 5-gal kegs to the art murmur event and help get it set up, but unfortunately will not be able to stay very late to drink it. Anyone have the equipment to activate this free beer opportunity?
Cheers,
Hol
Just wanted to advertise that I had it as an option.
I didn't write any direct control into the bot thus far. But the thing
about a bot is that the community could control it. It could, without
emotion, act on the IRC policies we program it to know.

I avoided replying to this right away, because I was too angry and
creeped out over being called "Jordana." He did this once before in
the IRC while at the same time talking about me with male pronouns
(he/his) - he knows better, so I took this as targeted harassment, or
at the very least disingenuous passive aggressive participation in the
trolling games that have been going on lately. He's apologized to me
in private since then but I just want to register that joking about
hackerspace wars can be fun, but actually gaslighting each other is
NOT fun. It can be scary, intimidating, and seriously compromise the
accessibility and diversity of our community.
As to the substance, he's absolutely right that we have op privileges,
but this obscures a few things. For technical background, I encourage
people to read about the difference between +F and +o. Your best guide
will be logging onto freenode and typing: "/msg chanserv help flags"
but more general guides are online:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC#Modeshttps://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml
There've been conflicts over how to run the channel. Namely:
1) The person with +F has used his privileges to override the
decisions of those with only +o, at several times unquieting people
we've quieted. The contexts for these were admittedly controversial
and fall on ideological fault lines over how to run an IRC channel in
general, so I agree 100% with Andrew that a clear IRC policy is the
way to go. For the record, this has been mostly about using oppressive
slurs, and my position has been not to tolerate them very much. We
happen to have in our community a person who makes it his life's work
to push peoples' buttons with slurs, and happened to be doing that IN
the IRC channel. He'd also made a habit of typing anatomical words at
random times. Form your own opinions. Again, the solution to this may
be more about having a clear policy, than who enforces it.
2) The person with +F has acted in bad faith. He flooded the channel
with ascii art of an ejaculating swastika and claimed it was an
"accident", which would be a no-brainer kban in most any channel. When
asked to share +F with other people, his response was to vandalize the
Sudoroom wiki to say he is the "leader" (
http://sudoroom.org/wiki/Community_Structure ). In the meantime, he
shares +F with a friend of his who hadn't been to Sudoroom since
summer 2012 and didn't even seem to know anybody's name. They'd also
set the +S (successor) flag for a person who is emphatically NOT a
Sudoroom member and has even publically criticized Sudoroom. This sent
a clear message to the rest of us that we were dealing with people who
saw us as a joke; didn't respect our community; and that there was
little we could do about it in the short term. That mistrust has
colored all of the talk over IRC privileges since then, and has only
escalated since these same people came to our 1/16 meeting and made it
significantly longer (by complaining about the meeting being long!),
and also filled our meeting agenda notes with things like "fuck",
"poop" and "this is why you guys never hack anything".
I'm not bitter or anything, just trying to bring out some of the
subtext here for those not following why things are happening the way
they are.
I think the best formulation for IRC rules that everyone can agree on
would be something like: we want the IRC channel to accurately reflect
the atmosphere at the physical sudoroom space. To me, that nicely
encompasses all the many behavioral problems and general do's and
don'ts. Honestly the room itself has rarely had the kind of problems
the channel has, because people tend to be a lot more decent to each
other face to face, and because it self-selects for people who care
about the community.
hey all,
as discussed at last week's meeting, we are hoping to have a sewing
hackathon on sunday, February 10th. we talked about 1-4pm, but I heard
LOLspace is having its anniversary party on that day around 3pm, so I am
wondering if people want to have our sewing party on a different day, or
earlier so we can head over to LOLspace too?
i am proposing 12-3pm instead! thoughts?
also, how does one become endowed with the powers to add events to the
calendar? or alternately, where does one submit events for the calendar?
all hail sudo!

Oakland Art Murmur First Friday is this Friday, Feb. 1.
In order to facilitate planning and discussion for this and upcoming Art
Murmurs - a new Sudo Room listserv has been created. If you would like to
help out, are an artist that wants to display stuff, or are just interested
in keeping full track of what's going on, please subscribe at the link
below. Today.
http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/artmurmur
We will keep the sudo-discuss listserv updated on major changes and
announcements, but will otherwise focus all displayed art related energy
and information on the Art Murmur listserv.

Hey folks,
I wanted to ask the list if there would be any issues with myself and a
couple of my friends using a wall in the common area to colab on visuals
stuffs tomorrow night?
I know there are some meetings happening tomorrow, but we would be
relatively quiet. We're just experimenting with how to best coordinate
visuals with a couple projectors and possibly test out some projection
mapping stuff which requires a bit more space than I have in my apartment.
I understand it could be visually distracting and I don't want to step on
any toes so please let me know if anyone feels this would be encroaching on
the meetings already in place.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Jack
