Hey all, I know I'm probably being an idiot, but looking at all the floor plans and detail drawings, for the life of me I cannot figure out the building or room heights.. ie for sudo/ccl room, ballroom, etc. Can some enterprising engineeringly-minded soul help us figure that out as soon as..? love David

Fwd: scissor lifts

by David Keenan

what are sudoer's thoughts on scissor lifts, rental vs. purchase..? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: David Keenan <dkeenan44(a)gmail.com> Date: Mon, Jul 21, 2014 at 1:19 AM Subject: scissor lifts To: "omnilogistics(a)lists.riseup.net" <omnilogistics(a)lists.riseup.net> Hi all.. um - Thinking about all we have to do and talking with contractors - I think we will either have to rent or, maybe, purchase a used scissor lift for all we have to do. Looks we can rent for ~400-$700/mo, or buy one for ~$4500-$6000. Advantage of buying one use is obviously, we keep it as long as we need and when we are done (if nothing breaks) we just sell it for about what we bought it for, which will be cheaper than renting. We have these 'get up high' tasks - some necessary, some potentially necessary: Ballroom: - Ceiling tiles: these are falling off/down, some water damaged - fix, remove or replace - Soundproofing (as per a studio engineer I took through the place): Pexiglass or similar under the skylights, and some sort of closeable/openable cover for the 2 large pull fans (ie large openings from which most of the sound escapes into the neighborhood). This will be necessary for any future cabaret license.. and we need to start renting that ballroom. Barroom: - Ceiling tiles & florescents: remove - New ceiling lighting & eletrical conduit: install Sudo/CCL room: - Pull fans to install in skylight vents - peeling paint & superficial damage to fix in ceiling (as per CCL's need for cleanliness) Exterior: - Siding on south wall: fix up and/or or replace damaged / rotting boards before rainy season (Landlord may pay for some of this) Potentially necessary everywhere: - SPRINKLERS aaaaaaahhhhh - this will make it far less expensive / scary an investment. If we bought a used lift, we could start installing it room by room and take our time. - Fixing any elctrical, gas or plumbing pipe high up that is hard to reach An added possible benefit marc brought up - if we kept it - this would aid greatly in Mesh installs around oakland.. maybe mesh could help out with the purchase, and it could be taken on field trips..? Mesh - what say you..? Best, David

Re: [sudo-discuss] SONIC.NET CANNOT GET INTO OMNI - ANYONE THERE?

by David Keenan

Extension 1 for sales, tech is Keshon - if anyone needs to communicate with them They were let in finally by John thank goodness - It would still be good if someone was there - the tech needs to try to improve the bandwidth. If someone could roll over and assist the tech, that would be good? - I did confirm that at least on paper we are connected to the close C.O. (~1.1K ft away), so we should be getting close to the provisioned bandwidth of 100Mb down / 20Mb up, instead of 20/1.5 as we are currently getting - Tech should be told to try the Tace 5168 Sonic is providing so our Zyxel modem is not blamed / the culprit - Sonic's Tace modem should be hooked up right at the MPOE (in the utility room) to remove any variables possibly related to faulty inside wiring - Tech should probably be told to look for undocumented bridge taps (i.e. at the nearest b-box outside) to see what may be dragging down the bandwidth Best, David On Sun, Jul 20, 2014 at 11:28 AM, Jenny Ryan <tunabananas(a)gmail.com> wrote: > An extension would be helpful!

Reminder -- Wikipedia/open education barn raising tomorrow!

by Pete Forsyth

Hi Sudo folk, I know there are some wiki people out there -- wanted to remind you of this (free) event tomorrow. We'll be working on Wikipedia articles about open education, and similar topics. Please join if you can -- and if you sign up tonight, we've got your lunch covered :) It should be a great way to flex your wiki writing muscles, and meet people interested in hacking education. We'll have online participants joining us from all over, as well! But join us in person at the Impact Hub, on 23rd and Broadway. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:OERBARN Pete [[User:Peteforsyth]]

Activities in CCL space

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Hi all, Just a heads-up that between now and Friday, the landlord will be sending in some movers to take out all the desks and other crap that he left behind in the Counter Culture Labs side of the hall. (Not sure if the big pile of doors in Sudo should be moved out at the same time?) I know that some Sudo gear keeps migrating into CCL's space, but I would strongly recommend that you keep your gear well away from the stuff in our side that needs to get moved out, or at the very minimum keep it clearly labeled, so the movers don't accidentally toss it out as well. After all of John's stuff is gone, we will likely want to clear most everything else out of CCL and do some serious cleaning, painting, and floor sealing, so we can actually start turning the place into the citizen science laboratory it's supposed to be. If you have any chemical sensitivities, or suggestions for what types of products to use (or not to use), now would be a good time to speak up... Looking forward to hack some science with y'all! Patrik
