Wednesday June 19th 2013 (Emailed to Noisebridge-discuss by Leif) This afternoon I asked an older man named James to leave Noisebridge. This is loud obnoxious James who used to wear a cowboy hat and be around frequently. Today was the first time I've seen him in several months; I heard he has been in southen california.

infernal machines posted:how is this place not getting raided by the cops/dea/whatever at least once a week? because they actively avoid calling the cops about any of the poo poo that goes on there - the drug use, the theft, the sexual assaults, and the people building their own little secret bedrooms in hidden corners are all first responded to by politely asking the person to leave (typically without confiscating the person's drugs or stolen goods), or sometimes waiting for the person to leave on their own and then passive-aggressively posting about it on the mailing list. so the cops might just not be aware of the full magnitude of the poo poo that goes on there hell, just look at the OP. two physical assaults and two people complaining about people offering them drugs, and in none of those cases were the cops actually called quote:1. I wasn't there but I can explain from my own conflict with RAYC, that I spoke with very good friends of mine who are lawyers and definitely are more attuned to the subject of law than anyone who attends Noisebridge. After ALL, my very good friend just graduated from Stanford, AKA the 3rd best school in the world for law! (for context, cynthia was apparently a homeless crazy person who came there to eat their food and rant about how all medicine was a Big Pharma conspiracy)

hacker spaces are a waste of time the overhead involved in letting any old idiot use your gear basically means you can't have any of the good things that "hacking" really requires in 2014, no fancy logic analyzers, no fancy board heaters you are geared to cut holes in acrylic and maybe CNC a cut, solder some dead bug circuits and pray someone doesn't harvest what few decent components you have lying around
