I overlooked his overbearing nature because it seemed like he was being proactive with Digital Media and he seemed to be getting a lot done in general. There's a specific instance where he argued against me vigorously without understanding what I was saying. It was about epistemology, which is the study of the nature of knowledge in philosophy, and he was arguing that automata theory proved that we can know things. And I kept telling him he should attack my definition of knowledge, but he just kept giving vague descriptions about concepts in automata theory and ultimately copped out by saying it was too complicated to explain if i remember correctly.

Especially with complaints where the board has a preexisting relationship with the person complaining and recommending a solution or the person tye complaint is filed against, since that creates a conflict of interest.

Our feedback loop for the board and leadership right now consists of a vote once a year and the complaint/recommended solution process. I think that getting rid of the complaint process, or making it possible for all complaints to be quietly dismissed, is a bad idea. It further weakens the suboptimal feedback loop we have.","",""

I thought it was very revealing when someone said they thought I relied on the space to make money lol.

As for the quarantine wackiness narrative:

I've gotten positive feedback on the Dallas Coder Night thing I've been doing online during the quarantine. I've had a great time at philosophy every week. 

However, I definitely get very pissed off when people use bullshit arguments, like when Andrew LeCody asserted that 500g of Crisco with some unknown amount of weed in it found in Mark Havens' home was worth $10,000. Or when the board said that not having a meeting was in accordance with the rules, which it clearly wasn't.

It also pisses me off when people abuse their power, e. g. Jim, Michael, and Freddy closing the PPE thread and then all the threads where I question that decision and other abuses of power. The one exception was Jim's SOI, but in that case I got silenced for two weeks, so I was silenced a different way.

I also get pissed when people antagonize me, like when Sewing Stuff kept calling me a clown and even took it into the computer committee channel on here. That one really got to me.

You guys can push that narrative all you want, and it sure is an easy way to dismiss everything I'm saying, but that's all it is: a way of dismissing. It doesn't actually refute anything I've said, though you might think it explains what my mood has been like.

Jim, I haven't spammed. You closed the PPE thread right after I replied to it. I got silenced after criticizing you on your SOI thread. My first post when I came back, about the abuses of power, was closed. That prompted me to try again to have an open conversation, which was met with a prompt thread closure, which prompted.. and so forth until I was banned from Talk for 6 months.

You can't silence someone fro the get-go and then say that you banned them for spamming.","",""

Most of what was found wasn’t smokable, but granted, we had enough pot to keep a wife and me stocked up for a while without needing or even knowing a dealer.

But now that I’m running for Board, you’ve suddenly decided that I’m a drug dealer? Honestly? Earnestly? After trying to manipulate me on this issue, presumably to keep me from running? I ran BECAUSE you tried to manipulate me, dude. I ran and outed my own pot history BECAUSE you made your petty intentions pretty clear when you PMed me in January. And everyone I trusted outside your little circle already had the whole story long before I decided to run. The WHOLE story has never been a secret. You know I’m not known for keeping secrets.

Because his trolling was working. He got an emotional response out of me and I responded by insulting him. It's something I can definitely improve on. It's not easy for me to stay calm in that kind of situation, but I think if I take it as kind of a personal challenge, over time I can get better at it.","","👍 (1)"

No one does it for Christianity in the US because, at least here, they haven't had historical struggles. When someone tells you theyre a Christian the default reaction is pretty nuetral. Growing up, if someone introduced themselves as gay, oh man that was not ok at all.

I think there are three things: gender, physical attributes associated with gender, and gender roles. I’ve given my definition of gender. Physical attributes typically associated with gender, like height, pitch of voice, presence of different sex organs, are not gender, but there is a relationship in that gender usually has a predictable effect on those because of the different hormones that fetuses are exposed to. Gender roles in a group are the expected attributes and behaviors for different genders. Those are the definitions I’m working with.

I agree with a lot of the issues and that the space is too large for certain kinds of management. 

One thing I am straight up guilty of is jumping into (being talked into really) a position that I knew nothing about. I think for the chairs/vice chairs/etc there needs to be a STANDARDIZED SOP (Standard Operating Procedures) that outlines the expectations of that position to include:

-Responsibilities
-What powers you do and do not have
-contact info for all other chairs/board members
-Expectations such as meetings/paperwork
-EXAMPLES OF PAPERWORK including FORMATS and blank copies
etc. 

I know the wiki exists and tbh it blows as far as being ""user friendly"" 
Having a dedicated dropbox/google box/whatever for each committee would be so helpful in keeping valuable data accessible and transparent. 

I struggled learning about what to do with PR and got a lot of flack when I asked questions or tried to get involved. Regardless of if it annoyed people or not, I was new and trying. It almost turned me off of the space in all honesty. 

So tl;dr I propose standardized manuals, localized records, and maybe minimum requirements for people running for chairs.","",""

It would be a great time/place to remind people of meetings and the ones I went to were fantastic and really encouraged people to meet each other in a fun and friendly atmosphere. I met a lot of people I normally wouldn't. 

Fostering community is important. People have to care about more than just the space if you want them to volunteer. Otherwise they will think ""well I pay my dues so someone else can do the work"" rather than having a vested interest in the -community- they -donate- to.","",""

@quattroquattro let's really unpack this.  Covid19 hits.  Government shutdown hits swift.  James, Julie, Ken, Brad, and Lara have full time jobs, with employers to answer to, maybe employees/clients to care for, and companies mobilizing their staff to work from home, on top of job loss fears and a whole lot of unknowns.

Plus  James, Julie, and Ken (I don't know about Brad and Lara) have spouses and children. Those spouses also have employers/employees/clients to keep happy, had to deal with moving work home, and had to worry/plan for job loss.  They had to set up and conduct home schooling.  They had kids underfoot.  Ken's kids were in college, which was a whole other set of problems.  Then came online work and school: were there enough devices for every family member?  Heaven help you if any had little kids - couldn't just park them in front of a computer to self-learn.

And like the rest of us, they had to hunt for groceries etc as inventories disappeared.

And dodge the disease.  And worry/plan for catching the disease.  And oh yeah, those employers to keep happy, those jobs that might get laid off? They provide the health insurance.

Now repeat that burden for the officers and committee chairs.

DMS requires James, Julie, Ken, Lara, and Brad, plus Pearce, Jim, Doug, JJ, chairs and whoever I'm forgetting to labor for FREE. In the midst of extreme personal burdens, they shut down an industrial facility of varied equipment safely and swiftly, carried on with managing construction projects, figured out ways to deliver value to members at home, contributed DMS resources to emergency PPE efforts in ways that were safe, created a reopening plan, implemented reopening plan, are managing an open industrial facility + enforcing safety standards that some are aggressively opposing, dealt with actual death threats, and the nibbling to death by ducks that is Talk and Discord.  

We don't deserve them.","","💯 (6),❤️ (7),dms (2)"

More Blue Tape, Less Red Tape
Vote for Mark Havens, Joe King, Max Kirkland, Kevin Patel

Blue Tape was one of the perks of being at DMS. There was always some around for your projects. It was also one of the first thing that was taken away by this current Board and Officers. The purpose of More Blue Tape is to say, we want to make all our members more comfortable. It is such an inexpensive thing to do, why not? Also those Drink Cups, Tableware and maybe a couch even. And lastly, not yelling or being curmudgeons to members.

But less Red Tape means that we want to reduce the load on our volunteers and automate things as well as give more deciding power back to committees while at the same time building stronger ones through leadership training and other regular training. We need to spread the load as we grow. We cannot rely on just a few people at the top.

This may in fact be their end game, just do as much damage as they can before trying to do it somewhere else. They have in the past been associated with John Thummel, Kris Anderson and Joe Paden. These banned members, who per a few Facebook posts are planning a space in the Plano area.

It would explain why they are posting on YouTube and LinkedIn, and not to the membership. They may be trying to sink our reputation to aid their own recruiting as the “new, fun all booze all the time makerspace” when people start searching for things to do post covid-19.

Who knows, but I’m surprised they didn’t just stay at ACME since that’s where a few of them went during the covid closure.

This includes lockers for tool control that are in the same system as the vending (i.e. top rows could be vending for consumables, bottom cabinets for expensive checkout based tools).
Can't hurt to inquire; even if it's not blue tape, could be useful for common committee consumables that are normally under their stipends / usual committee budgets (WD-40/cutting oil 
, pig mats, and the like for machine shop; recharge canisters for jewelry; blades for all committees with saws; sanding belts and flap disks for metal shop). It could be setup so any committee member / volunteers could pull a replacement, but not average members.

I really hate this strawman bullshit that I'm defending people. I'm not defending anyone. I have this weird urge to point out bullshit arguments where I see them. For example, in the anonymous video on YouTube, there was talk of jumping through hoops to teach a class. That's just false. It's super easy to throw up a class on the calendar. Also, in my video, Mark talked about how incumbents shouldn't go after other people running. I should ve mentioned it in the video, but I think that's bullshit. Of course they should go after their competition. It's *how* they do so that matters. Making wild accusations about some Crisco with an unknown amount of infused marijuana being worth 10 grand for example, is bullshit. Andrew, you don't believe the shit you spew. You lied here on Discord. You denied claiming Tha the oil was worth 10 grand. It takes a certain amount of contempt for people's ability to reason to knowingly lie to them to further your agenda. I suspect that you think the end of promoting the clique justifies the means of bullshit like the plagiarism and 10-grand Crisco claim.","",""

You are right it's fair to go after them for legitimate things. Like how he misrepresented members in the past in a matter of fraud and has apparently done it again with Luke.
I do take issue with you on the weed/hash oil price question though. As I recall we looked at current Colorado market price for both hash oil and infused butters and it came out to an exceptionally high value. 
Keep in mind that's retail price in a town where it's legal, here where it is illegal it's more expensive. 
So my position on that is that it doesn't matter if it's 2k, 5k, or 10k. He was in possession of a large quantity of illegal product and he's not being 100% honest about how it happened.","",""

For what my opinion is worth (<you paid, probably) this statement has the cart before the horse; nobody is producing any content, because they've never been able to GET any TO the DMS yootoob channel.
I might be wrong, but my perception is that, were I to make a KILLER ""how to hammer weld a draught tank bung in stainless steel"", nobody knows how to get that into DMS' yootoob channel. I could post it to my own, but not DMS'.

We've had people film new tours and we've had people start a lot of stuff, but when it comes to getting into digital media and finishing it there has been little success. 
I think our priority right now should be getting the cart together to stream classes. Once we have some good ones we can do quick into and credits with jjs template and we will be able to start posting decent content.","","👍 (2)"

@DJ Vance 
The offer is still on the table if anyone finishes a prototype.
For online classes @Melnick is teaching a bunch and getting fantastic response. 
We also filmed stuff for a ceramics class yesterday and spoke with someone from laser about filming the 101 class for them. 
There is a lot of work going on towards moving us to more online classes and online tool signoff. 
If you brought back your coder nights you would likely see more involvement as people have become more accustomed to online learning now that we've all been doing it for so many months.","","❤️ (1)"

@aceat64 as the person that specifically cited both sides as ""shitty,"" I'll be the first to say that may have been overly strong. In particular, I don't think it applies to everyone on each side. And specifically, I've always thought you're a pretty civil guy.

That said, I do think it's a fair thing to say that tolerating bad behavior on one's side instead of calling it out is still a significant factor in bad blood getting built up between good people. I think individually pointing those instances out to those people within one's camp, and potentially making a more public statement about not engaging in that way if it persists, is an unpleasant but necessary component of that. And while I (or anyone external to the groups) certainly wouldn't see the personal conversations, the fact that the same people keep repeating the same behaviors would lead one to believe that they're not taken seriously by the group.","",""

So they got pounded for a couple of months. Then, the new board was seated, and they began getting pounded, and have continued to be pounded on a daily basis since them. And a whole lot of the pounding was coming from the likes of Kris and her cronies. Which apparently includes you, Draco.

@ESmith Absolutely.  That's why I wanted to suggest that a professional help.  It's a lot easier to make quorum if you can count something more than just the votes that came in.  Entered votes is pretty much the most limited of the counts one could use, just due to the nature of voting.","",""

You're trying to pass a bylaws amendment (coincidence that we use bylaws as an example a lot in training, btw, not meant as a reference to DMS -- it's just one of the most common 2/3 votes in most orgs).  You give notice of the bylaws vote, and 100 people show up to the meeting.  You hold the vote.  2 people vote yes, 1 votes no, and the other 97 decide they really don't care because it's trivial to them anyway and they don't vote (aka they abstain from voting).

Members with voting rights get emailed/mailed/whatever you like (email is fine, generally speaking but also especially so if such were to be codified in the bylaws) at the beginning of that period and asked to basically ""opt-in"" to receiving a ballot for the votes that will be held at the upcoming meeting.","",""

@ESmith It's not reducing the size of the pool.  It's allowing abstentions to stand as abstentions, and if there's no language regarding abstentions it is the standard accepted practice for holding votes.  Goes the other way -- there actually has to be language somewhere to *not* do it that way.  There's no such thing as ""discounting abstentions"" -- an abstention is literally abstaining from voting.

@pearce Then, yes, changing how quorum is counted for a particular meeting definitely can change the math for how many votes are needed.

Everyone that voted electronically received a copy of their ballot as they completed it since DocuSign is serious about providing documents *as signed* to all parties.  I don't even have the software to edit PDFs, thus Judy's underlying document is what I used.  Once I got the form populated with the checkboxes and fields I used the same form for all proxies.

I've been trying to figure out when the actual hand off was going to happen, expecting the usual BoD ceremonial meeting, but none has been announced so far as I know.

I may be alone on my island, but I'll defend my opinion into the ground:
people get confused when there is no ceremony. The symbolic changing of the guard, passing of the flag, handoff of the baton *needs* to be done so that we can all be on the same page about what the organization is doing and where we all are in the process. Otherwise, we're all just guessing, and hoping our understand of the situation is right. These delineations are absolutely vital to the health of the organization, especially if we want to have any kind of zeitgeist (and we do). Without this kind of pomp and circumstance, there is not tone, no expectation, no cultural cohesion.
alright. Stump rightfully stood upon.
I'll shove off now, until I have the same bitch about the committee chairs being nonchalantly ""mehed"" from one occupant to another in a week or two, leaving all of us mere mortals in the lurch, wondering just who in the fuck is in charge of what.
I'll go change titles in Talk (probably tomorrow, unless someone else beats me to it) but I don't have the necessary access to change group memberships, so ""@board_of_directors"" will still be whomever it is right now (no idea if it's right or wrong; I can't see it).

So it doesn't limit people's ability to speak freely? To be clear, I'm not talking about the 1st amendment, I'm talking about people's ability to speak freely, or without restriction. 

The fact that we're a private entity does not imply that removing all political posts does not limit people's ability to speak freely.

Removing trolls is a specific case, what I'm talking about is removing all political posts without the posters' consent.

@NobleGoblin
I think that DMS should be able to remove all political posts in the sense that I don't think that should be illegal. And I don't think it is illegal under the first amendment. I don't think this is a first amendment issue. I think that while it shouldn't be illegal for us to remove all political posts, I think that we shouldn't. I think having a separate space for political speech is a better medium according to my values.

I think removing all political posts is a use of force. I think it's forcing people to avoid politics on Talk. This is really just semantics though, I may have a different definition of force than you. I'd be happy to substitute 'use of force' with 'restriction' or 'limitation of freedom'","",""

I'm not advocating for bringing in politics. I'm advocating for pushing it out.
