Hi everyone,
You're getting this email either because 1) you're on the sudoroom discuss
email list, or 2) because I BCC'd you directly.
Tonight I'll be hosting Sudoroom for those who want to come hack on whatever,
in person, or through telepresence (see the last link in this email)
ALSO NOW FEATURING: SoftWEAR hacking too: most Tuesday evenings the sewing area
at Omni Commons (in the basement) is also active so bring your fabric and
textile projects and technical repairs; we've got heavy duty and serger sewing
machines available. You're also welcome to bring your own machine to have it
checked out and tuned up for tip-top operation or to just sew alongside others.
Remember that Omni Commons and Sudoroom policy is presently still that
EVERYONE SHOULD WEAR A MASK AT ALL TIMES INSIDE THE BUILDING
(if you want to eat something you should go outside)
in the past few weeks, we've had about 5-15 people over the course of the
evening, not including remote participants who logged in through telepresence
Jenny put it on the Omni calendar:

Here it is on the sudoroom page:
https://sudoroom.org/events/hardware-hack-night-2022-02-15/
that says 7PM but I try to be there earlier.
if you get to the door (at the corner of 48th and shattuck) and you can't get
in, call me or someone else who's there to let you in! Email me if you don't
have my phone number. Actually a great way to get our attention is to join the
video chat link at the end of this email!
We don't always hear the doorbell and I don't answer it anyway!
You should get on this sudoroom discuss mailinglist! click here:
https://sudoroom.org/lists/postorius/lists/sudo-discuss.sudoroom.org/
and you should donate monthly to sudoroom, monthly, by signing up here:
https://sudoroom.org/humans
and if you want to make a one-time donation, you can go here:
https://sudoroom.org/donate
if you can't make it in person: join the jitsi videochat with the room, and
chat with each other as well as a giant TV screen/speakerphone on the wall:
https://meet.waag.org/turtlesturtlesturtles
(don't worry if you're the only one in the "room", others will join eventually,
and if the camera is pointed at the floor, just yell until someone comes and
talks to you and then ask them to aim it back up into the room)
see you soon!

Hi, I'm at SudoRoom rn, I see the printer got fixed (thanks for doing it!),
and I was able to copy a page but having a hard time printing from a
computer. Does it have bluetooth/wifi? I wasn't able to find it to install
on my computer.
Then I was trying to print from a communal ubuntu desktop, I see a Canon
printer but it seems like a different model? Also when I try to print from
it, file just gets queued but nothing happens. (printer is on)

I need to power a device with an LCD screen running on a Raspberry Pi.
Both need 5 V. The Pi needs about 3 Amps. The screen needs between 0.5 and
1 A, depending on brightness. So I figure I can power both off of a shared
5 V power supply as long as it provides at least 4 A. But I can't find a 5V
4A power supply. So I'm wondering... could I just wire two 5V 2.5A power
supplies in parallel? Would this work? I feels wrong but I can't think of
why.

I was talking to Jake and Elaine at a recent meeting, and Jake mentioned
that we've got some kind of laser soldering gun or something.
Coincidentally, I've just started using the soldering stations, and
honestly I'm noticing how much I don't know.
So I was thinking of putting together an afternoon where we could all bust
out some of this exotic stuff AND I might also just pick people's brains
about how to use solderpaste well. We can definitely do it again if there's
interest, but I primarily see this as a discrete event. If I were to
organize this, how many people could I rope into answering my questions?
Would people be more available on a weeknight or weekend afternoon?

Hello, Jake sent me to this group, and suggested I'd ask on here
for help to install a rom on my android phone. I'm trying to install a lineage rom, and
I don't know how to do it. If anyone is available to help, please let me know.
Thank you so much

Hi everyone!
Sudo room's weekly meeting is tonight at 8 - 9 pm in person and remote at
meet.waag.org/turtlesturtlesturtles.
I'm feeling a little ill, so I don't know whether I can be there in person,
but a new member said they're coming, so if you're going to be there let
everyone know!
See you tonight (probably)!
