<div dir="ltr">You know what? �Take a step back. �We need to think like bigger, like possibly owning our own space. � We also, until we have a land where we don't have to follow the laws of the USA, that we have certain obligations. � Things like making a nuclear reactor at noise bridge would most likely end badly with the space closing down. �It is definitely technology and definitely considered hacking. � Is it a good idea to do it at noise bridge? �No. �It is unexcellent to our landlord, our community, our neighbors and the city of San Francisco. �Ok that makes sense. �I am pretty sure we can all agree on that. �Now think of every action you perform at noise bridge. �Is it excellent for the community, the landlord, our neighbors and the city of San Francisco? �Those are our immediate problems. �If we piss off one of them, noise bridge becomes at risk for it's existence. �I am pretty sure noise bridge's continued existence is considered excellent. ��<div>
<br></div><div>I think we, until we own the space and are 100% sure sleeping at noise bridge will not put it at risk, perhaps we should just not do it. �The same goes for a lot of other behavior that is illegal in the outside world. �This could include serving drinks from minors, making nuclear reactors, doing drugs that are illegal in the USA, selling drugs that are illegal in the USA, making drugs that are illegal in the USA or other actions that could put noise bridge at risk or provide reasons for law enforcement to close the space. �Any of those, are bad ideas. �Those are unexcellent since they put noise bridge at risk. �For example, by allowing drugs in the space, you are causing a problem for everyone else in the space at the same time. �What if there is a bust that happens and then they lose their jobs? �Their apartments? �Their significant others? �What if they now have to deal with all these false bull crap drug charges since you were in the wrong place at the wrong time? �What might be excellent to you might not be excellent for everyone in the community in a literal way. �Maybe you should announce these behaviors as you walk in the space so people can leave if they don't want to be part of those things. ��</div>

</div><div>Absolutely. I recall another time a sex group did a 5mof presentation, i noticed there was a young child in the space. The presenter did not check, or provide warnings, just launched right into it. When i realized the content, I made a point to ask the presenter:�"Is this presentation child safe?". The presenter answered "no", and the parents quickly removed their child. </div>
<div>�</div>
<div>The presenter's fault? No-- NB needs to disseminate it's values and policies. </div>
<div>�</div>
<div>Same as we cannot blame people living in the space, after opening the doors wide to anyone and everyone. Roughly throwing they and�their belongings�out on the street after the fact, as if they are criminals who have clearly violated nb's rules is unfair, because the rules are unclear, plus the open-door policy, plus possible encouragement they might have received from a member who supports letting people crash in the space. </div>
<div>�</div>
<div>Before hating on squatters, NB needs to own responsiblity: clarify our rules, adjust the open-door policy, and get all members on the same page about people sleeping in the space. </div></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>
