Hi there, Checking in about payment for Sudo Room's rent in April (see attached invoice). I apologize for not being totally in the loop on this, but it's my impression that the Omni agreed to give Sudo a $135.00 rebate on your April rent as reimbursement for paying the Omni's wifi. Is that correct? If so, please see the outstanding balance on your invoice for April 2015 rent and process payment as soon as you're able. Otherwise, please let me know if any of this is incorrect so I can update your invoice accordingly. Thanks so much! Sarah + Finances WG ------------------------ Invoice Summary -------------------------- Invoice # : 1006 Invoice Date: 03/25/2015 Due Date: 04/01/2015 Terms: Net 30 Amount Due: $1,680.73 The complete version has been provided as an attachment to this email. ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Fwd: [Announce-sfbay] You Are Invited: SF Premiere of "Life on Bitcoin" Film at the Archive

by Vicky Knox

A documentary for the bitcoin-heads on living exclusively on btc. I'm a total hater. My impression is that it's a couple of bourgie SF-y folks with a self-imposed "struggle", but I think it should be interesting nonetheless! Plus, the Internet Archive is incredible. :] ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Archive.org announcements for San Francisco Bay Area < announce-sfbay(a)archive.org> Date: 2015-07-14 9:55 GMT-07:00 Subject: [Announce-sfbay] You Are Invited: SF Premiere of "Life on Bitcoin" Film at the Archive To: vknoxsironi(a)gmail.com [image: https://ia601508.us.archive.org/28/items/dcgdafcc/dcgdafcc.jpeg] Join us *Wednesday, **July 22nd from 6:30-10:30 p.m*. for a the San Francisco Premiere of the documentary film "*Life on Bitcoin*," at the Internet Archive. The film covers the experience of newlyweds Austin and Beccy Craig who struggle for 100+ days to live entirely on the upstart currency. Austin and Beccy will attend and conduct a Q&A session following the film. The couple began the experiment when their credit cards, debit cards and cash were confiscated at the airport upon arrival from their honeymoon. “It felt like learning to swim by jumping in the deep end of the pool,” said Austin Craig. For the next three months, the Craigs tested Bitcoin (and their marriage) by relying solely on the cryptocurrency for every expense, including gas, rent, groceries, speeding tickets, and insurance. For every transaction, they had to evangelize the currency to survive. Ultimately their adventure took them on a road trip across the United States and into Europe and Asia. This film sheds light on the practical strengths and early limitations of bitcoin technology and mixes it with a large dose of entertainment and fun. [image: bitcoin_c] <http://blog.archive.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/bitcoin_c.png> *All are welcome - the “bitcoin-curious” as well as the long time fan.* *DATE:* Wednesday, July 22 *TIME:* Doors open for mixing and refreshments at 6:30 PM.

Fwd: [sudo-info] Make your own microscope class - could we use your space?

by yar

This email was sent to info(a)sudoroom.org. Would anybody like to follow up? We are still getting a lot of emails to info(a)sudoroom.org and not enough volunteers to reply to them. If you'd like to help, please join this list: https://sudoroom.org/lists/listinfo/info Thanks! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Amir Nathoo <amir(a)outschool.com> Date: Fri, Jul 10, 2015 at 12:00 PM Subject: [sudo-info] Make your own microscope class - could we use your space? To: info(a)sudoroom.org Hi, We're looking to run a 'Make your own microscope' craft class for homeschooled kids based on this Foldscope kit, and are looking for a location to host it in or close to Berkeley and I wondered if we might be able to use your space for a fee? The class would be on Wednesday, July 22, 2-4pm. If it could be a possibility, perhaps we could jump on the phone briefly to discuss? Some context: we're working on Outschool which is a project to make more great learning activities available outside regular school. We're initially focused on the homeschooling community and have blogged about the ideas behind the project here: http://amir.io/outschooling-in-the-bay-area I'd appreciate your help or suggestions. Many thanks for your time! -- Amir Nathoo Twitter: https://twitter.com/amirnathoo Blog: Outschooling in the Bay Area

SOIC-14 SOT-8 surface mounting reflow oven?

by Cere Misc

So there's this chip that I just gotta have for a project I am working on. The only problem is that it seems like EVERYTHING in IC form now it packaged in these teensy little surface mount chips. I don't have a small enough soldering iron and I'd rather not hassle with trying to make it work with my shitty equipment. Wondering if sudo or Noisebridge is set up for a solder reflow oven with an accurate temperature control? Also, I am not totally clear about how I create a silkscreen soldering setup for a given PCB design. Does anyone on this list have a lot of experience with this? Thanks, Cere

by Marc Juul

Maybe we should sign? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Nicholas Merrill <lists(a)calyx.com> Date: Thu, Jul 9, 2015 at 2:01 PM Subject: [liberationtech] Call for free software projects ( and other types of organizations ) to sign an anti-patent-troll pledge To: liberationtech <liberationtech(a)lists.stanford.edu> Hi, The Calyx Institute is running a campaign to try to get 40 organizations to sign a pledge against patent troll lawsuits directed against Linux, Android, Apache, MySQL, PHP, Tor Project and dozens of other free software projects and organizations What if your organization isn't one that develops software or holds software patents? That's OK ! We still would like your organization to sign the pledge. Even if you run a supermarket, a social network or a workers union, we are very happy with your organization becoming a member of the community supporting patent non-aggression. Open source is everywhere (from the cash register running on GNU/Linux, the server that hosts your website and mail or the medical equipment measuring your lung capacity). Everyone should be able to use these open source packages donated by their creators without thinking twice. By joining, you make a difference. The link to the pledge, and associated FAQ's is at the following URL: https://nlnet.nl/help/ It's really easy to do, it should take less than 5 minutes. Just click the URL, click on the 'Sign me up' button, then fill out your project or organization's information, and just be sure to do what it says in the confirmation email ( which comes from a totally different domain ) The subject of the email should be something like "OIN license agreement for you" from licenseesign(a)openinventionnetwork.com Thanks!
