Re: [57north-discuss] Python User Group
Yeah this is a great idea. Can we arrange the space in a way that would be more conducive to the group's meetup, or provide any services/hardware (I see you mention zoom) that would make it better?

We run mostly on Zoom, with the talks streamed to youtube and breakout sessions hosted after each talk for conversation and query! By night, we'll drink, party dance and catch up with old friends. we're happy to offer private breakouts if you want to talk more in depth about things, plan projects or get excited over nothing and everything with new friends! Tickets are pay what you want with a minimum £1, and all proceeds go towards developing our in person events - campGND proper and NorthernRST in December!

Re: [57north-discuss] Hackerspace virtual activities
Hey Nerds. Let's play some games on Friday. I suggest Among Us[1] (Windows/Wine [steam/epic/msft store], iOS, Android) on Friday to sow the seeds of distrust amongst the community. It's cheap (<£5) and after a simple explanation and attempt, you might even get the hang of it. If anyone has any jackbox[2] games we can drink and be stupid. They're akin to TV gameshows - watch the stream, participate with phone/tablet/PC and trash talk each other. This can easy happen on Friday too, I have pack #3. It gets better the more you drink and has memetastic ads.[4] Also, in more "niche appeal", online multiplayer OpenTTD[3], and build some ridiculous train networks or something. This will need setting up a server somewhere, so Friday is unfeasable.

Of course! Surprisingly on this one, the wiki is actually reasonably up to date, and also has links to the vendors guides! https://wiki.57north.org.uk/doku.php?id=projects:3d_printer#how_to_3d_print_an_stl Because of the filament being a bit old, it absolutely needs to be replaced beforehand https://wiki.57north.org.uk/doku.php?id=projects:3d_printer#replacing_the_3d_filament Alternatively, you may just wish to replace it with a different colour, as you might not want a lime green box!

[57north-discuss] BBQ & Radio on Saturday 5th
Hey all, We're thinking about going to the fields behind the hacklab (https://osm.org/go/e6k7rkgSl--?m= or https://osm.org/go/e6k7rGGRw--?m=) on Saturday afternoon, playing with radios on the HF bands and maybe having a socially distanced BBQ and a few beers. We'll need to take some bricks/wood to keep the BBQs off the grass (unless anyone is going to volunteer a coal fired / off ground model). I also recommend bringing a camping chair as sitting on Grass isn't so much fun. Weather looks good, currently, so it should be a fun afternoon of talking to strangers around the country and talking to friends in a field. If you want to come along, give a shout here or in IRC so I've got a vague handle on numbers. -- Hibby 2M0HIB ___ 57north-discuss mailing list 57north-discuss@lists.57north.co http://lists.57north.co/listinfo/57north-discuss

[57north-discuss] campGNDd, May 29-31
Do you feel a strong desire to sit in a field and do the same things you do at home but in a field with your pals? So do we, but this year we've been campGNDd to protect lives. Let's do the same things at home that we want to do in a field with our pals that we'd normally do at home. campGNDd will run May 29th, 30th and 31st, this time we will be virtual. Normally we are limited by capacity at the camp site, but this year we are only limited by our dreams. As a departure from our normal event we are having talks, walk throughs and music We're looking for submissions on anything you're enthusiastic and excited about. If you enjoy it, the odds are we will too! You don't need to be an expert to propose anything. Submit early and submit often! The CFP is open and the tickets are on sale - all the important information is available on https://campgnd.com.

Re: [57north-discuss] wiki.57north.org.uk Migration
Hi all, To nip this before it becomes a disagreement, irl and I had previously talked about this, but I am reluctant to add more services to finzean & garioch until I/someone else has migrated them to a new platform - I'm not happy with the age of them, and I've been talking about auditing and migrating things with better documentation for some time. There is some work on this on what is now oldwiki, but I keep ending up busy before I can get any real motion on the project. My big fear is understanding enough of the openLDAP to migrate that, and migrating the mailing lists - I suspect if we're moving them it's worth migrating to the .org.uk address too, but I don't know enough about mailman as it stands to a) competently migrate them and b) change the addresses on them without breaking everything. Hopefully once work starts kicking my ass this is something that can happen, until then I'm happy to have working services that are better documented and more portable. hx -- Hibby MM3ZRZ On Fri, 10 Apr 2020, at 12:17 PM, Robert McWilliam wrote: > On Fri, 10 Apr 2020, at 12:13, Iain R.

Hey there, Sorry - you are correct it's tonight, I'm just bad at dates today it seems! Hopefully this works for irc, no guarantees - irc can be a bit finnicky sometimes: irc://holmes.freenode.net/#57N if you have a client, you want to connect to server chat.freenode.net and once you're connected, try to issue the command /join #57N or find a way to join the #57n channel. Freenode has a web client that asks for this up front: https://webchat.freenode.net/ To join us on hack & tell later, download mumble and connect to mumble.milliways.info - make sure you run the audio wizard, and be sure to set up Push to talk (PTT) - it avoids us hearing you eat or similar!

[57north-announce] 57North Gamejam 2017
Good day nerds! On the weekend of the 20th, 21st and 22nd of October, we shall be hosting the first 57North Game Jam! What's a game jam? It's a get together of people to make games! You turn up and create something that you'd enjoy playing. Learn more here[1]. What kind of games? Any! Board/Video/Card/Crypto/Blockchain/whatever! Just because some of us will be programming doesn't mean you need to do the same. They can be silly, serious, important, easy or difficult. Who can take part? Anyone, but we ask that non members of 57N make a donation to the hackerspace. You are welcome to bring friends and team up, or create something on your own. Throw your name on the wiki and/or reply here. What does my game have to be about? At the moment, we don't have a set topic to base games on - feel free to suggest one, or to suggest that we shouldn't have a topic at all! Where is it taking part? We will be based at 57North Hacklab, 35a Union Street, Aberdeen. However, you are not obliged to spend the whole time in the hackerspace with us. We assume you'd like to sleep, eat and maybe work from a comfortable room for a few hours or a whole day. Events will kick off at around 1800 on Friday, however if it's impossible to make it in for then, don't worry, just turn up late. We shall be finishing off at around 1500 on Sunday with a show && tell session so you can reveal and explain your creation! Want to know more?

For those of you not in the know, Tuesday evenings are open to anyone who wishes to come to 57North, Aberdeen's hackerspace[1]! We get up to a range of activities on Tuesday nights, including but not limited to social contact, programming, manufacturing weird things and consuming sugary treats. We usually begin at about 7, but sometimes someone will be in earlier. If you're unsure, ask in IRC[2]! ] If you're new, I'd suggest you bring a laptop, and perhaps a project you want to work on. If you're coming in, feel free to reply and tell us all what you're planning to do! I shall be continuing my "learning sockets in python" project, which is going nicely.

[57north-discuss] Space Cleaning!
Afternoon! I've been thinking about the space lots recently, as I've had time on my hands... so here's the annual reminder email! It'd be really nice if we were a little better at keeping the place tidier and cleaner - it's a bit dusty and nasty at the best of times! This morning Kev and I have been out and picked up some cleaning supplies and dropped them off - there's a mop/bucket, flash cleaner, loads of toilet paper, a toilet brush and toilet duck! If things seem a bit manky, please use them! It'd be nice if we could keep the communal areas cleaner - I'm aware our neighbours aren't great at it either, but that's not justification for us not cleaning and tidying the space we use! There's toilet cleaning supplies to keep that nice to use (I wasn't enjoying the black scum-line or the green mould...). Can you make sure you clean and dry (with paper towels) any mugs you may use and put them away! If there are no paper towels // toilet roll left, mention it to one of the directors and we'll make sure that the supply is topped up! Also, can we all make sure we're not leaving food/drink to get mouldy and stink the place up? There was an old Gregg's coffee under the sink (!) that was fostering a new civilisation and smelled a lot like vomit! It is now gone! Hopefully by putting in a little effort at the boring stuff we can make our space more welcoming for old and new members alike!

[57north-announce] 57N OSM Mapping Day, 2017-08-12
Good day friends and hackers! I would like to announce the OSM Day 2017, on Saturday August 12 2017 @ 10AM in 57North Hacklab! This year's theme is "On yer bike" - Improving cycle accessibility data in Aberdeen. What's an OSM day? It's a day of playing with and hacking on Open Street Map[1]! This event shall provide a reasonably comprehensive introduction to Open Street Map for those who are unfamiliar with it. Key areas covered will be: - What is OSM? - How do I contribute? - Where can I start? For those who already know about OSM, it'll give you an excuse to go and get mapping or hack on the map datasets. How can I participate? There's lots of information about cycle accessibility that OSM can offer - pavement ratings, street quality gradings and cycle lane information to name a few. Much of this hasn't been filled out in Aberdeen, which can make cycle route planning hard! Let's make things a little better by improving the map. If you know of roads and paths which offer shared access but aren't on the map, this is a great excuse to cycle out to them, collect information and help others in the future! It's also a pretty good excuse to go to bits of the city you haven't explored yet and see what's there! If you're not of the going-out-and-exercising type, you're welcome to come along and work on code, trace in data from satellite maps or just learn more! What should I bring? - Yourself - Smartphone (GPS logging/survey recording) - Laptop (Uploading information / app hacking) - Bike (If you've got one!) - Weather appropriate clothing - Lunch Afterwards, it'd be nice to go for dinner somewhere - if enough people are interested I'd be happy to book a pub for dinner or similar. Some of the information you may need is already available at the wiki page [2] Hope to see you there - feel free to ask any questions by email and/or add your name to the attendees table on the wiki!

[57north-discuss] Events
Morning All, More than half the year has gone! Oh goodness, where did it all go? It's been a bit of a quiet one at 57N this year! I've been quite bad for going to other places and playing with toys there. Let's sort that and get some weekend events on the go! I'd really like to see one weekend event a month happening in the hackerspace. It can be a one day, two day or 3 day event! They don't take much work to organise, and we're all willing to pitch in to make it happen! There is a new category on the wiki - Events [1] - which can be used to list your event. Just add `[[Category:Events]]` to the bottom of your wiki page and it'll appear! There is probably a fancy way that semantic mediawiki can make this easier, we'll work that out as we go along. Before the end of the year, I intend to run a Game Jam [2], another OSM Mapping weekend[2] and the popular Stupid Shit No One Needs hackathon [3]. That should do August/September/October. Who's on November and December? ChristmasHax could be fun, and I'd love to do a Fireworks session in November for Guy Fawkes // TJ's Birthday weekend, but that seems like a Bad Idea(tm). Thoughts, ideas, questions and comments are all encouraged and welcome!

Good Tuesday everyone! Week 3 of may has come, and the weather promises to be great again this week.

Drinks, hacking and relaxing in a field with friends, what more could you want? Anyway Today is open Tuesday at 57N and all are invited to come along after 7pm! For those of you not in the know, Tuesday evenings are open to anyone who wishes to come to 57North, Aberdeen's hackerspace[2]! We get up to a range of activities on Tuesday nights, including but not limited to social contact, programming, manufacturing weird things and consuming sugary treats.

[57north-announce] 57North Hacklab Ltd. AGM
Friends, members and associates. A reminder to all the AGM as detailed below is tonight at 19:30. Much Love, -- Hibby d...@vehibberd.com - Original message - From: Robert McWilliamTo: 57north-annou...@lists.57north.co Subject: [57north-announce] 57North Hacklab Ltd. AGM Date: Sun, 19 Mar 2017 22:54:38 + Most of you will receive this twice as it is going to -announce and members' email addresses. 57 North Hacklab Ltd. Will be holding our Annual General Meeting (AGM) at 19:30 on Tuesday the 4th of April 2017 in the Hacklab, 3rd floor, 35A Union St, Aberdeen, AB11 5BN Much of the procedure for the AGM (and other things about how we operate as a company) are laid out in the Space Corp. Directives (see clause 4) which can be obtained from Companies House or (if you trust me that they're going to match the official Space Corp. Directives): https://github.com/hackerdeen/articles/raw/master/hacklab_articles.pdf Our current membership count is 18, a quarter of 18 is 4.5 which is less than 5 so quorum for the meeting will require 4.5 members (Space Corp. Directive 44). I don't really want half a member at the AGM so I think we'll call that 5 members for quorum. The AGM is intended to be a check that we are sticking to our legal requirements rather than going through the day to day running of the space (issues about the day to day running would be better raised on the discuss mailing list). Agenda for the meeting: - Election of meeting chair - Report on activities since last AGM - Treasurer's report - Election of directors - Any Other Competent Business We are now accepting nominations for anyone who wishes to stand for election as a director for the next year. Nominations can be made by sending an email to 57north-annou...@lists.57north.co stating that you would like to stand (and some explanation of why) before the meeting or by indicating that you want to stand when we get to that part of the meeting. Email is not instantaneous, and can be subject to glitches, so if sending your nomination by email please send it as soon as possible. The details of how the election of directors will be conducted will be up to whoever is elected to chair the meeting (Space Corp. Directives 48, 51 and 52) but will probably be something along the lines of: if we have less than 5 candidates more nominations will be sought until we get to 5 or more candidates. If we have exactly 5 candidates at the AGM then they will become the new board. If we have more than 5 candidates then we'll have an election to decide who gets to be a director - previously [0] we've done this with Meek STV via opavote.org, I'd be in favour of using this method again if an election is needed. If any member can't make the meeting there are a couple of things they can do to participate should they wish to. Any issues you'd like to have raised at the meeting can be sent to 57north-discuss@lists.57north.co or privately to any of the directors or to the directors collectively at 57north-ctte-priv...@lists.57north.co (please make it clear you are sending something you want raised at the AGM) and we will see that it is brought up. A proxy can be appointed to vote on your behalf at the meeting (see Space Corp. Directives 47, 53 and 54). If you would like to appoint a proxy please send an email to 57north-ctte-priv...@lists.57north.co Email sent to the 57north-ctte-private address is redirected to all presently listed directors and is not archived by 57North Hacklab (but may be by the individual directors). The email (preferably PGP signed, with a key trusted by the directors to be yours) should contain: - Your name and address (as it appears in the register of members (hackhub)) - Who you would like to appoint as a proxy - That this is for the AGM on 4th April 2017 - If you have any specifications for how the proxy is to act on your behalf. The proxy should bring the same details to the meeting on paper and signed by the member they are to act as a proxy for. Remote participation in our meetings is now allowed, if anyone who can't make it to the meeting would like to participate remotely I can set up a conference call and/or google hangout for the meeting. Any members who would like to connect via one of these channels should let me know - I will not set this up unless demand for it is communicated to me. If anyone has a different preference for how they would like to participate remotely: let me know and I'll see what can be done.

Howdy y'all! We are now in Advent, if you follow the Christmas stuff, and this is my last full weekend in Aberdeen until the new year! With that in mind, if you're not up to much tomorrow, you're welcome to come round to my place and drink tea, soft drinks and/or alcohol. It's a bit small, but I've got fibre internets, MPD, a fridge, potentially 8 chairs and cooking facilities. It's also warmer and more comfy than the space. You can bring a laptop and hack or just bring yourself and good chat :) If you want to swing by, drop me an email or ping me on IRC so I've got a vague idea of numbers and stuff. If need be, I can go past Costco during the day and pick up a slab of alcohol, but that's quite organised!

To this end, we are going to go on an adventure to ~ 57.7009, -3.4511 with an HF radio, a VHF radio and probably a picnic in my tiny car. Because I'm morally opposed to doing anything on time, this has no set day yet, but I can 100% guarantee it will be on either Saturday or Sunday. We will likely leave from Aberdeen university at 9ish, getting there about 11ish, setting up and radioing for a few hours and then having dinner or something and coming back down the road later. I thiink at this point the free spaces in my car are now booked, but if you would like to come play, post up here and we'll try to get another car involved so that 4 can come!
