Hi sudo,
I've been working on this pinball machine project over the last years and
I'm looking for a new home for it because I'm leaving the bay area and
can't take it with me:
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/ad/105796
I'd donate it to the sudo-room for free (if someone picks it up from my
place in Berkeley).
It's fully working. Everything on it is software controlled, so it's very
hackable!
I thought it would be a nice addition to the sudo room for people to have
some fun and learn about linux / python / embedded in the process.
If sudo decides to sell it to help with the rent, that's fine with me too.
So please let me know if there is interest or -- if it's not a good fit for
sudo -- maybe you know someone who might be interested.
Cheers,
Michael

Hi Michael,
I can't speak for all of Sudo, but I personally do not think we have
room for this. Have you tried asking the folks at the Pacific Pinball
Museum in Alameda?

Yar I think that we should consider using the space we do have to host this
machine while we find a forever home for it, considering Michael is offering it
to us for free and doesn't mind if we keep the money from the sale of it.
We would be able to have it and (safely) let members look at it and learn from
its cool DIY design while posting it looking for a buyer. I don't think we're
using the space we have in the way that we used to right now anyway, so it
seems like a good fit to me.
Does anyone else feel this way?

I like the idea of taking the pinball machine, only for
educational purposes and grassroots organizing...🤓
I think we should take it only as long as we promote it on Sudo Room social
media.
I'll stand aside if folks think it is bad idea for space and COVID concerns
!
On a completely unrelated but vital note,
I forget if Sudo Room or Noisebridge was wanting to do a virtual
watch-a-thon of Hackers 1995 movie and everyone dress up as their favorite
character.
I'm fairly sure the Acid Burn character plays pinball in that movie.

Hi sudo,
thanks for the many suggestions!!
I've decided to hand it over to Michael from the Pacific Pinball Museum.
If you ever see it there, send me a picture :)
I'm not sure what his long term plans for it are, but I'll let him know
that if he wants to find a new home for it, that there is potentially some
interest from the sudo room.
All the best!
Michael
