a warm place to hack - sudo-discuss

9 Jan 2016

i certainly like the sound of building an enclosed area upstairs & will
help w/same but it really hasn't been that cold the past few days.

i wonder if the worst is behind us.

 please write back if you think this is a good
idea. 
 Yeah, you can also look up one of the following heating methods: Kotatsu,
 Korsi, Mesa Camilla, or Sandali

 I have used something similar to stay warm in sub-freezing temperatures
 without having to rely on space heating.

  we are all starving for a warm place to hack, and
sudoroom attendance is
 reduced for obvious reasons.

 what we need is a warm room to hack, and i propose the following:

 we tarp above the server balcony of sudoroom, and seal the whole thing
 like a room.  To enter from the steps you have to pull back a  magnetically
  sealed thing or maybe we can make a hinged door
thing, i don't know.

 all the heat from the servers (and people hacking in there) will be
 conserved and it will be social in addition to being warm.
 I have some lighting that might be appropriate, to help people feel like
 they're in the sun, as well as providing warmth.

 also it will be a nice chance to clean up that area and move things  around
  and make it a hacking zone again.

 HOW CAN I HELP?

 if you have tarps or sail material or blankets or rope or anything you
 think could be used to close off the area, let's talk about it to see if  it
  will work.  If you bring it in on your own I hope
you install it too - it
 might take some carpentry or something to have places to attach it.
 I think the ceiling should be about 10' high, or whatever it takes to
 enclose the eastern shelves up there and securely seal to the wall.

 if you know what any of the stuff is upstairs, and think you can clean up
 or move things elsewhere, please do that.  We have a lot of printers and  I
  don't know which ones are good or bad, and
there are a lot of stereo
 systems and computers up there that maybe need to be put back into
 inventory, or put in the e-waste pile.

 also it's really dirty and dusty up there, so if you know where is a
 vacuum and/or brooms/dustpans please help get it clean up there.

 please write back if you think this is a good idea.
