i know i know, i can just get one on ebay.
but does someone here have a Palm Pilot cable that they don't want?
I am looking for the one with the DE9 RS232 serial plug AND a power connector
(USB i think?)
looks like this but also has a USB plug (although i'll take whatever you have)

Hey everyone,
Tonight is a weekly party, but I just don't have the energy to host these
right now. If someone else does, that would be great.
We have a general meeting next Wednesday, May 3rd. I'll try to host it, but
I'd love to have someone else do it.
If you'd like to add anything to the agenda for today or next week, reply
below.
Cheers,
*Andrew R Gross, (he/him)*

We didn't exactly have much of a meeting tonight, but progress was still made.
- We talked about what to do with the recent influx of Chromebooks that came in. Most of them currently cannot be used because the Fremont School District hasn't de-authorized them yet, so they're hard locked to those Google Accounts, and can't even be properly wiped. This may resolve itself soon, as we were told they would be deauthorized soon.
- Discussions about what OS we want to favor for the laptops we're giving away were also had. There's a tradeoff to be had between favoring stability/simplicity (e.g. Debian) or more frequently updated distros (e.g. Arch) which offer a wider variety of packages.
- I brought in some linux install CDs/DVDs, along with a a CD of rEFInd, as I noticed we didn't have any install media that just "belonged" to sudoroom, for anybody to use. I left them on the cart under the TV; please don't take them home, so that the next person who needs them can use them too.
- I also brought in a keyboard. Ideally I'd like for us to have a couple of "shop" keyboards that are kept relatively clean and accessible, so that we can use them whenever. Not sure of the best way to do this right now.
- I proposed an idea to draw new people to sudoroom by offering a "learn linux" program. I'm thinking we can take some of the older laptops/mac minis/whatevers, and show interested people how to build linux systems from a minimal install (i.e. week 1: basic terminal stuff; week 2: adding a display manager/xorg/window manager; etc.) The idea seemed well received, but I wanted to see who all would be interested in participating, and if anyone had ideas about how we could let people know about this. I was going to propose doing it on a couple of wednesdays a month, or Friday if those are open.
- It looks like two of the newer mac minis were found - these have HDMI ports, so they're easy enough to hook up to any monitor. Some folks wanted to keep OSX on them.

The serial numbers have been submitted to Fremont Unified School
District IT so the Chromebooks can be de-provisioned from Google
Enterprise Enrollment. After that they can have their write-protect
screws removed and any alternative OS (Linux-based, probably) can be
installed.
I'd love if Sudoroom would build out a practice to help students and
residents remove write protection, install an alternative OS, and
empower them to get the most out of that alternative OS.

Hi folks,
I'm working with an art student who's building a neat interactive
experience and needs to use one of these versions of the teensy. Do any of
you happen to have one laying around you're not using?
Thank you,
Anca.
