\¥/ Hey look, Torrie wrote another novel! \¥/ \¥/> absolutely cannot afford right now. We have 15 members now and we would \¥/> need at least 7 more Budding Nerd members to afford rent and internet \¥/> alone. Keep in mind, with this number we would be JUST BARELY making \¥/> rent \¥/> and internet payments. The board has expressed that they feel a lot
I just recently went and posted flyers at Akron University :)I would like to see more members out spreading the word. \¥/> I'm hoping the Akron maker faire will help us gain more members. Getting members to sign up as makers will help to show what the space is about, along with SynHak's booth. \¥/ Here's Torrie's seekrit agenda for growth at SYNHAK: \¥/ \¥/ 1. Build sustainable, persistent infrastructure that doesn't depend on a \¥/ single person with all the tribal knowledge \¥/ 2. Entice others to contribute to basic upkeep of the infrastructure \¥/ 3. Encourage membership in exchange for collective funding of the upkeep \¥/ 4. ??? \¥/ 5. Profit! (Intellectually) \¥/ I'm good for #4, I'm full of ?¿?. \¥/ If y'all have friends outside of SYNHAK -forever alone- \¥/ * Where the heck can we put a friggin coat rack?!? We have a three dimensional space, put it on the ceiling. \¥/ * Solar powered winter heating system? Awesome but, we still need access to the outside, same issue as the AC unit :/ AANNDD I would really like to see both systems up and running, with or without the landlords help. we just need to get him on the line... \¥/ * Make it look pretty with arts I brought in that nice picture of the MythBusters. :) \¥/ * Raspberry Pi+RFID cards to check training on spiff when you try to use a piece of equipment That sounds like a bad idear. I can see this stopping me from using stuff right when I need to use it. Kind of like the "open / close" status for SynHak (no offense to Torrie) \¥/ * Certainly, someone knows more LaTeX than me and can fix the namebadges \¥/printed from the Kiosk I know latex, oh wait, wrong latex. \¥/ * Having a SYNHAK-managed computer means we've got an answer to people who \¥/ need to print from their windows desktop (until samba is setup). They can \¥/ copy \¥/ the file to the workstation and magic happens. Please, just put a windows system for people to use! (I don't have time to learn free bash / linux printer drivers! I just need to print a doc!) -well, it would be nice to see a selection of systems to use, Mac, PC, Linux- Just my thoughts! See you at the space!
