looking for a small form factor graphics card PCI-e 2.0 -3.0

by Wouter Piessens

Hey all, I just got myself a windows desktop machine to connect to the CNC router of Ebay, for a bargain. Unfortunately the graphics card is underpowered and I am looking for a small form factor graphics card to fit in the case, size 17cm by 8cm (or there abouts). Has anyone got any old cards lingering about, gathering dust and that are looking for a new home. I will happily take it if its PCI express 2 or 3 and can return the favour with some Belgian beers. Cheerio, Wouter

I'll probably clean my bike brakes too. You can't trust those RPi's because of their proprietary blobs :-( See you later!

Notice of Board Meeting

by Iain R. Learmonth

Hi All, I am calling a board meeting for the 26th July 2022 to be held at 20:00 in the space. This is for the purpose of finding a way to resolve our ongoing issues with access to the bank account. Options available are to put more effort into RBS or to open a different account that is a better fit for the way we wish to use it. This is an urgent issue in my opinion, therefore the requirement for 7 clear days can be waived according to article 81. Thanks, Iain.

Hackers in Fort William

by Wouter Piessens

Hey folks, One of my acquaintances, based in Fort William, is looking for a hackers in that region. So far without luck Does anyone know of a Hackerspace in that part of the country, or knows individuals who are thinking of a setting up one? I understand it's a long shot, but perhaps through this network we can help her out. Thanks, Wouter

HP Pavilion dm4 laptop

by Tony Travis

Hi, Kevin. I'm coming into Aberdeen today (Thu) and I can drop off the laptop I offered to give Vicky at the HackSpace on Tue night if you want? I can take it to the Space or drop it off at yours if you'll be in? The only problem with it is that the secondary Radeon GPU is faulty and it won't run for long unless you blacklist the "radeon" module. It's got Ubuntu-MATE 20.04 on it with the "radeon" module backlisted and works fine: It's an Intel core-i5 with 8GiB RAM and a very nice machine. Bye, Tony. -- Minke Informatics Limited, Registered in Scotland - Company No. SC419028 Registered Office: 3 Donview, Bridge of Alford, AB33 8QJ, Scotland (UK) tel. +44(0)19755 63548 http://minke-informatics.co.uk mob. +44(0)7985 078324 mailto:tony.travis@minke-informatics.co.uk

Vortex of Doom Round 1

by Iain R. Learmonth

Hi All, I have identified some items for disposal from the hackerspace and catalogued them in the online vortex of doom index. You can see the full list of items pending disposal at: https://vortex.57north.org.uk/?action=list For convenience, here is the list of items that have been added today, with their disposal date: 2 iMac A1224 (2007) 2022-08-16 00:00:00 3 LG Flatron L1710B Monitor 2022-08-16 00:00:00 4 Hanns G HU196D Monitor 2022-08-16 00:00:00 5 3 Level Sashlock 2022-08-16 00:00:00 6 Motion Activated Toilet Night Light 2022-08-16 00:00:00 7 3x RGBW LED Controllers 2022-08-16 00:00:00 8 Clip-on Logitech Soundbar 2022-08-16 00:00:00 If you wish to claim any item, send a mail to the list. I will update the index with a delayed disposal date to give you time to collect the item, and link to your claim email from the index entry. If you're happy for these items to be disposed of, you don't need to say or do anything and that will happen. The latter 4 items on this list have sat in the Vortex of Doom box for months, if not years, and I'm looking forward to getting some clutter removed from our shelves. Thanks, Iain.
