    • juul: you can go during the day and connect to peoplesopen.net and there's internet! so that's a success. however, the system I brought crapped out (ayden brought it back). I think the USB adaptor broke. I want to get the more expensive modem.

    • juul: using calyx hotspot w/o solar power. im stil working with them to figure out a way to do solar well. it's tricky to find a good sustainable spot for it. there's one light pole on NE corner we could try to use if we figure out the berkeley bureaucracy, though it's far from where people hang out.

  • Loomio for lease with Omni closes in less than 24 hours

Next Sunday

We host office hours every Sunday from 1-3pm in Sudo Room to talk to people, work on sudomesh projects, and schedule node mounts.

Solarpunk hotspots proposal

I (juul) propose that we install some solar powered 4G LTE WiFi hotspots on poles close to homeless communities and other public areas used by the homeless (like People's Park).

If the delay for approval isn't long then let's start with one location and expand.

Let's figure out where we want to mount: This is important since we'll have to specify when we apply for the permit.
