Thursday morning there were rats - (a necessary risk) - but folks, please clean out any food!

by Romy Mimi Ilano

Hey folks, Thursday morning my coffee & algorithms session with other people were disrupted by two rats. I accept the rats as an acceptable risk, because it's great to share creativity and food. However. I figured out what was up and instead of getting embroiled in more rat drama I quickly disentangled myself and quarantined the session. It was important for me to take some rotting fruit out and toss it out, and not entertain any of the rat nonsense. In the future we might be able to sequester the rats in their own space, and then folks who want to create can go in separate areas. Rats have feelings too! I've had a lot of fun at hackerspaces over the year, but ignoring the problem isn't the solution, and we are always going to have to accept the reality of rats if we want to have community. https://sudoroom.org/coffee-and-algorithms-bringing-the-soul-back/ keep on learning folks! *Romy Mimi Ilano* *romy.ilano(a)gmail.com <romy.ilano(a)gmail.com>*

Re: Sudo Room member banned from Omni Commons

by Ashley T

Who are you, Edwin ? Why do you keep emailing me privately ? What is your agenda ? I asked if you are a member of the Sudo Room. Did you read the forwarded email from the Food Not Bombs volunteer that described what Sierk has been doing to people?

Fwd: Fire Inspection this Friday

by Paige P

Hi Sudo Room, there is a fire inspection Friday. I suggest we do some cleaning today and tomorrow. I am able to help clean at 7PM tomorrow, can anyone else join? Below is a list from Ojan and Sarah of what to do. Our main work will be making things look less messy. Paige ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Ojan Mobedshahi <ojan(a)ebprec.org> Date: Tue, Sep 10, 2024 at 10:03 PM Subject: Fire Inspection this Friday To: omnidelegates <omnidelegates(a)googlegroups.com>, cc OrangeLush < orangelush(a)gmail.com> Cc: Noni Session <noni(a)ebprec.org>, Candida Haynes <candida(a)ebprec.org>, hiroko kurihara <hiroko(a)ebprec.org>, Freeway <freeway.the.writer23(a)gmail.com > Hi Team! *I know we should probably have a party to celebrate the building being saved! BUT, we have a fire inspection scheduled for this Friday, so we have to get through that first lol.* I'm going to be around for a few hours Tomorrow and Thursday to prepare, and will be entering all the spaces. I hope each collective can organize their own spaces as you have in the past to pass fire inspections. I will need to open all doors for the fire inspector on Friday, so please let me know if there is a space you have an exclusive key to. A few typical items that Sarah has flagged for me: *1. Things blocking electrical panels* *2. Things obstructing egress paths*… the rear hallway leading to the 48th St exit and the hallway in the basement leading to the stairs that go up to the back of the ballroom are the two that regularly are blocked *3. Extension cords used in place of permanent wiring (unplug and wind these up)* *4. Hazmat items not stored in cabinet that aren’t being used by a person present* — also make sure hazmat cabinet in the basement isn’t obstructed by stuff … this has also been a regular occurrence *5. Items stored within 24 inches from ceiling.* *6. Piles of things - anything that looks like a messy pile might look flammable to the inspector!* Thank you all for your cooperation so we can keep Omni's fire assembly permits in good standing! Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

This Evening (Tues Sep 10): Greet for Hardware and SoftWEAR Hack Night /Fixit Clinic tonight?

by Peter Mui

Hi Sodoers: We had a great time at last night’s USA-CA-South San Francisco Library Fixit Clinic Repair Advice Workshop https://www.ssf.net/Events/Fixit-Clinic-Repair-Advice-Workshop-Sept-2024 (Photos at https://photos.app.goo.gl/qyXw5zNzzf9XkEYv8) - We’ve got one person (Terry) who registered for tonight’s Hardware and SoftWEAR Hack Night /Fixit Clinic at https://bit.ly/itemcheckins: Desktop computer Cyberpower PC C Series / ET8160-47547 Turns on, but shows nothing when connected to monitor I went to Best buy, they suggested fried motherboard - Also: Sudoroom member Hilary is going to bring some linux-converted Chromebooks she needs help with. Typically on Tuesdays we have lots of new people visiting the space and it can be intimidating if you don't know anyone and don't know where to go and what to do. So can someone try to arrive early, say, 7:30 or so to greet people for Sudoroom (or SoftWEAR downstairs) and get them started on their projects? And to keep an eye out for people who are standing tentatively in the entrance between Counter Culture Labs and Sudoroom and be welcoming to them? Extra Credit: 1) confirm that the VOIP phone number 442-252-8386 is working by dialing it 2) put the Fixit Clinic sandwich sign out on the sidewalk. Many thanks, -Peter

Could you guys email me inspiring open source projects and why they're important?

by Romy Ilano

The prompt for this week's hardware hack night is "open source" So far I got PSUD Inkstich / inkscape Could you mention in a snippet why the open source has helped you and why? Blender is a biggie - I will put this hopefully in a blog post when I have time. https://sudoroom.org/mochi-at-hardware-hack-night-custom-cushions/ Also, next week's theme is "hidden potential" and wil feature inventors who have beat the odds to overcome stuff like child marriage, lack of formal educatio and even famine to shine! ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
