hello there, It's Tuesday once again, so we will have our weekly open
night! Even though this email is quite short notice, it does not meant
we are not open tonight. If you've not heard of us, 57North get up to a
range of activities on Tuesday nights in our shared workspace, including
(but not limited to) social contact, programming, manufacturing weird
things and consuming sugary treats. Typically we kick off at 1930. We're
located at: Suite H Kettock Lodge Innovation Park Campus Two Bridge of
Don Aberdeen AB22 8GU Instructions for getting in are here:
https://www.57north.org.uk/open-evenings .Hit the buzzer and someone
shall come and rescue you from downstairs after a brief wait. There's
plenty parking, but if you don't have transport get in touch either here
or IRC and someone may be able to help you out! The number 1 bus comes
nearby too. If you're new, I'd suggest you bring a laptop, and perhaps a
project you want to work on. If you're not new, shoot a reply to the
list and tell us what you'll be up to, and maybe consider bringing a
friend. Please mention a time if you'll be in before me! I shall be in
from 715-730pm, working on a bit of my home energy alert system, again,
and learning some sqlite...Progress has been slow, but intentions are
still alive. Whether I will make progress today is questionable, but is
that really important on open Tuesdays? I will be leaving by 930pm, and
can offer a ride back into town. Drop an email to tell us when you'll be
in and what excitement you're getting up to? Cheerio, Wouter

I will be spending some time in the hackerspace this afterrnoon, from

Hello hackers,
Once again it is Tuesday, I thought we agreed this wouldn't keep happening?
If you haven't heard (but yet are somehow subscribed to our mailing list!), we are the hackerspace in Aberdeen 57 North Hacklab. Until we can figure out how to stop we have an open night each Tuesday, it is mostly a social meet up.
Please join us from about 1930, if it is your first time bring a laptop to hide behind and your favorite ideas. You can find us at:
Suite H
Kettock Lodge
Innovation Park
Campus Two
Bridge of Don Aberdeen
AB22 8GU
Instructions for getting in are here: https://www.57north.org.uk/open-evenings .Hit the buzzer (Suite H) and someone shall come and rescue you from downstairs after a brief wait (it is a long walk)
If you plan to come in drop as an email with what you might attempt to do, always good to hear peoples dreams
I'll be in, trying to find a tssop56 0.5mm pitch breakout board like some sort of addict.

I'm going to spam a few places Sorry, not sorry.
The Coop I work for, Black Cat, are trying to get transition funding for Insulation and need people in the NE to vote please vote and share.
Black Cat is the worker cooperative, who operate the grassroots music venue Krakatoa, not for profit.
We are converting the 3 floors above Krakatoa to incorporate 8 double rooms and a sustainable vegetarian cafe, all of which will operate not-for-profit. This is aimed at providing low-cost B&B accommodation for touring musicians, booked to perform at Krakatoa and other local music venues.
This is projected to deliver a 90% reduction in energy costs over a conventional build, resulting in a significantly larger surplus that will be reinvested into enhancing the local grassroots music scene.

As you have probably noticed we have an A0 plotter in the hackerspace.
Unfortunately, is it currently inoperable due to a faulty printhead, a Canon PF-04.
How would people feel about the hackerspace using its funds to purchase a new printhead to get this plotter working?
Cheers,
