If you have specific suggestions, let me know; otherwise it will probably be late February or early March. dove: HRT is having a social thing with SIPB this Saturday; we will be going whale-watching. This is a great chance to interact with some SIPB alums and have fun. Read the email I sent to sipb-office and sipb-soc. dove: EC elections will be Monday Oct 6. The previous week (Sep 29) we will decide whether cereslee and dwilson will continue as members-at-large. Project Updates =============== dove: On behalf of SIPB DEFCON, I would like to announce that DEFCON is now operational. defcon.mit.edu, or look at the seven-segment display. The ribbon cable plugs into the GPIO header on the RPi in an intuitive manner. If you are on sipb-joint-chiefs you can remctl sipb-defcon set; anyone can remctl sipb-defcon get. These ACLs might change. sparrow_: Cluedumps continue to be organized. If you want to hold a cluedump, please email me. vasilvv: We finally have a 4K monitor. Right now no office head can drive it in full resolution; I loaned mkc a GPU so we can use it. It currently works under Linux and Windows, for some value of "works". Many of our laptops can drive it at full resolution but only at 30Hz. achernya: I think you need a retina MBP from 2013 or newer to drive it at full resolution at 60Hz. dzaefn: There is now a catalogue of classroom data on the back of the SIPB door. Other ===== achernya: The office is still a mess. I hear there is no longer a reason for it to be a mess. (The air conditioner was fixed.) We should make it not a mess. Other Other =========== '() Meeting adjourned at 19:39 (EDT). Minutes taken and submitted by dwilson.
