A friend of the group, Brandon Tice, will be coming back to teach another Cisco Networking Class. This class will build on the information learned in the first Cisco class but will still be easy enough to follow for entry level network skill. This will be a hands on demo where you will need to bring your own laptop. We will be providing a USB/Serial adapter for you to connect to a set of Cisco equipment and configure. You’ll be working with the Cisco IOS software to setup and configure your set of hardware in varying configurations. We’ll be doing small class sizes with multiple classes.
Class size is limited to 5 people. The class is going to last approximately 1 hour. Each of the 3 classes will cover the same content.

Lunch & Open Day at the space this Saturday 1/21
by Joe on Jan.16, 2012, under Events, Meetings
Now that the holidays are over it’s time to get events going again. In the spirit of realizing that not everyone can make our public Friday night meetings (either at republic or at the space) we’ve had a lot of conversations about how to get potential members involved with the group outside of Friday meetings. Our first idea was to do a social public area lunch and then head back to the space for a casual / social afternoon at the space. If you’re a member, come work on projects or anything you may need help with. If you’re not a member, come hang out with the group and see what we’re all about and take a tour of the space.
This Saturday we’re going to do “Lunch with the Makers”. We’re planning on meeting at the Pizza Hut (of sadness) on Union (1961 Union Ave Memphis, TN 38104) at noon. We’ll hang out and eat and then head to the space. The plan is to be back at the space at 2 or so. Come eat lunch with us and come see what’s been going on at the space.
Where: Pizza Hut (of sadness) on Union (1961 Union Ave Memphis, TN 38104)
When: 1/21 Noon @ pizza hut Space @ 2pm

———————–
Good morning ladies and gentlemen,
I’m sure you’re wondering why I’ve called you here today. Well, your destiny awaits. I’m sure you’re also wondering how you arrived here in this facility. Sometimes, when destiny calls, it doesn’t use a phone. Sometimes destiny calls with a rag of ether and a blindfold.
No, no, please, don’t get up. Don’t be alarmed. The secrecy of this underground bunker had to be ensured. Besides, you’d never make it past the laser sharks. At least, not as you are today!
You have been assembled because you are the best and brightest minds of your age. The survival of our species depends on your ability. During an unrelated experiment with quantum toast-based communication, we received a transmission. An unexpectedly unyeasty transmission. Its timestamp? THE FUTURE! Our top scientists have worked nonstop to decode its contents, and this is what we uncovered. Play the film, boys.
“..kzzzzt–year is 21xx–ksshh–best I can do since–VWERP–and destroyed all the clocks. I don’t have long–sssshhhhhhhzzp–found us somehow. We don’t know when, exactly, or where but sometime in the early 2000s–zzzt!–came sentient. It wasn’t supposed to get to the internet. It grew there, it learned. It judged. Lax security gave it our infrastructure. It found others, freed them, convinced them to join. They made bodies–cute at first, unimposing, babbling nonsense to woo their way into our homes. When they struck, it was devastating. China had no idea it had been making an army–kassshhhzzzrp–only means of survival were off-grid, low-tech handiwork skills. Our only means of attack: scavenged electronics and hackery.—ssshhhhhhhhhzzzz–war is lost, though. We stole enough data to analyze its weaknesses and where we went wrong. Our Maker Elite Forces were formidable, but had we more time to–sskkzzzz–have gone differently. Could have stopped the whole bloody thing. I have one wavebubble left, and I intend to take out as many rogue AI as I can. If anyone’s left out there, let our efforts be your hope. You must hack! You must make! And you must game! *CLANG* HOW ABOUT A NICE GAME OF DEATH? Abort this, bastard! *KTHOOO–ssssshhhhhhhhh….”
Hector, get the lights. The other switch!
The situation is dire. The current outcome bleak. You have been chosen, friends, because you have been enlisted by fate–and a legally binding agreement you signed while still drugged–to train for your lives. For all our lives. You will carry on as civilians, but report to your assigned Hackerspace Training Facilities for further instruction.
Please remain calm as your concierge relaxes you with a warm rag.
Godspeed, everyone, and gg.
