  • Benny - he/him - grandfather exclusively painted cows and ballerinas, and cows being ridden by ballerinas
  • Matt - he/him - grandfather also in korean war, enlisted with best friend, drove ambulances together. they chose that job because it was one of the safest things you could do. during the end of the tour, a tree fell on the ambulance and killed his friend. grandfather was a farmer, grew strawberries and watermelons. whenever we'd go over he'd crack open a fresh watermelon. his special skill was shooting watermelon seeds with his fingers.
  • Jackson - he/they - recently found out a cool Finnish pronoun -- hän (3rd person, gender neutral, signular) - my grandma was the most optimistic energetic ball of positivity. one of the things she did was commit random acts of gardening all over her neighborhood. would plant flowers everywhere 🌻
  • Mai - she/they - my white grandma was a therapist and came out later in life, had dated some of her patients, ended up with someone for the last 35 years of her life named cheryl, who i knew as another grandma. her kitchen was totally fucked up--missing ceiling, covered in plastic and what not.

    • Mai: I will be there!
    • Still a person in claremont interested in putting a node in her house. Can happen whenever though. I'm going to be outta town the 1st half of sept. i'll email her in a couple weeks.
  • Scott
    • I'm interested in continuing with disaster radio. I'd also like to figure out how to get more PON nodes up. What the bottlenecks are, how we can get more people connected.
    • Lately been working on a decentralized project management tool. Curious what aspects I'm missing. Curious if people here want to use it.
  • Ace
    • As someone who lives in the internet archive, im interested in helping. Did design for like 9 years. I used to do company's quarterly reports. Willing to donate time.
  • Lesley
    • Still haven't heard back from city of berkeley about mounting hardware on electric poles. I submitted a form online. Might go bother them in person. Also found a new neighbor who wants to be part of the network.
  • Margaret
    • New. Very interested in disaster radio. Haven't done a lot of hardware in the last 10 years. Used to do a lot of computer networking. I'm interested in getting involved. Currently live in a sublet in the mission, which ends in october. I'm moving out here. I helped benedict deploy the mesh at dweb. Got me interested again. I want my own disaster radio.

    • I haven't been involved lately as when I first started. I used to do some internal internet set up in this building with Daniel. Currently I think I'm good at tagging around and helping.
  • Tyler
    • My focus is HAM radio outreach!
    • Mai: tell them about disaster radio!
    • Tyler: Yes. Upcoming HAM meeting Sept. 7 ill talk about what disaster radio and sudomesh is all about. My main belief is that a wifi disaster network is way more useful than the current disaster network that my people are banking on, which uses very uncommon radios.
    • Tyler: also working on fliers for regular outreach
