It's random. It's non-alphabetical. It's not an index. Tell the world about your favourite London Hackspace secrets.
One Hundred Things You Didn’t Know About London Hackspace
Spacensus-in-situe
On our irc channel, type-in ?people. Robonaut will tell you with awesome accuracy how many people are in the space.
Read about it here - http://wiki.hackspace.org.uk/wiki/Project:Spacensus
SwapShop
If you have anything you no longer want, list it here, either for free, swap or sale. You can also list the things you want.
Members' photos
Embarassing mug-shots of our members. Why isn't yours there?
Orphaned wiki Pages
Nothing links to them so they're ultra-secret. At least they were until now.
Lost property
The space has a lost property bin that not many people seem to know about. Contains a few memory cards and things. All sorts of stuff may get chucked in there when a major tidy up happens. (I havn't been able to find it since the shelves were rearranged, someone must know...)
Adaptors, chargers and cables
There is (or was) a mains adaptor to allow a continental plug to be connected to a british socket. This has been handy for overseas visitors who want to plug in their laptops. Could have been left anywhere in the space. (currently there is one in the 'lighting' bin by the doorway to hanger 23). There is an old style nokia charger that normally lives on the window sill behind the soldering bench. (As well as nokia phones it charges the little frequency counter). There are a _few_ standard USB leads in the bottom wire basket by the door of hanger 23.
Network
Not all the wired ethernet ports by the tables work and they arn't marked, if an LED next to the ethernet port on your laptop does not light up when you plug the cable in try a different port.
Overalls
You can use the blue overalls with the "DCL volvo" patch while doing welding or mucky jobs. They should be a perfect fit if you are six foot two and 18 stone or a baggy fit on anyone else. Please try not to wreak them.
Geocache
We have a geo-cache hidden in the space [1].
