The 132nd Meeting of Noisebridge

Agenda

Introduction and Names

There was this guy from Noisebridge, And he stoppeth one in three, And the ones he stopped this Tuesday, Were Mike, Rachel, Seth and me

John and Al and Milo, Kelly, Carl and Mike And others too mumbly to record, but easy enough to like.

The HMS Consensus, Was the ship they travelled in And the niggly details of how and what Were mentioned here, therein

Colin asked the queries As oft the newbie does And others explained, in familiar refrain How things are done here, because:

We're excellent to each other We rarely ever block We value tools over pre-emptive rules And spurn the key and the lock.

Announcements

Neurofog told us that he does not live at the 'bridge and never will, Much relief was expressed Because, it is stressed Permasleeping is a terrible ill.

Frantisek cooked some awesome food I may have got his name wrong His project noble: building Hackmobile For something less than a song

Two grand is what he estimates Know a bus that's cheaper? Shout "Frantisek!", then "Apfelbeck!" He's looking for a keeper.

Frantisek has other plans We proposes to cook a Thanksgiving NB It won't be arrayed on the usual day But the preceding saturdee.

Membership Binder

The binder was checked, and John was there, Read twice, with a singleton sponsor Two weeks and another, he'll be like a brother And an official Noisebridge Mon-sieur

What's Going On at Noisebridge

The event list was read, too long to give Craft, machine-learning and knots. Please to repeat lists from previous meets If you need to know the lot.

Probability's added for a Tuesday event Or at least that's what the odds say Bay Area Hackers are Associating On the Second Sunday, monthlay

Financial Report

Seven thousand and nine, hundred dollars and eighty Three are in the kitty. Send in your dues, lest chaos be loosed The results will not be pretty.

We're running so low, it's worrying It's less than twice our expenses You need to remit all your spondooliks Such slacking is wrong and offensive

The treasurer moans! We can't take out loans! Our Wells Fargo account's reconciling Is in wild dissarray, sad to portray And the system, it needs codifying.

Discussion Items

John wanted to restart hacking EEGs, So we put it in this lay, And everyone wassailed that -discuss should be mailed And see what they have to say,

Consensus Items

It was announced by Al that he'll repaint the walls Over by the sewing The pictures were neat, And checked at past meets, But it's time that they were going.

The record shows Al "was not pissed!!!" But hacks always proceed, And art never persists.

Donations

The Hackbus is looking for money and time and laptops, Pent IV or what have you Mario is also looking for laptops, says Al For kids to run Ubuntu.

Keyboard or mouse on U to the S to the bus that starts with a B; Monitors, ladles and VGA cables, Noisebridge will take gladly.

Thursday nobody put out the garbage cans Maybe there's a technical fix Mike assayed that the touchscreen displays Could show some timely widgets

Other Issues

Low incoming numbers of prospective members, Is that a new kind of problem? Frantisek shared, but no-one else cared. If they wont sign the binder, then screw them.

Seth says he's going to Iceland And visiting their own hackerspace You can give him some baggage, to go on his voyage, Just say so to his face

Conclusion

This started like the Mariner rhyme But now I've forgotten the scheme Is it ABCB Or ABAB? Time to call this meeting finis. Time, quoth Milo, to smoke DMT.

For we're excellent to each other here We rarely ever block We value tools over pre-emptive rules And spurn the key and the lock
