			[9:07pm] jokeefe: what would you all like to discuss?
			[9:08pm] Pirate_50190: Funding ?
			[9:08pm] Pirate_50190 is now known as Joe.
			[9:08pm] Malt: We need to get ahead of this poison pill net neutrality bill
			[9:09pm] Joe: I think the next vid is on it. I have been having some trouble with my main pc so the vids were a bit challenging to get.
			[9:09pm] jokeefe: municipal wifi
			[9:10pm] jokeefe: not much we can do on the federal level, unfortunately, but can push for state laws as well
			[9:11pm] Joe: Sadly, I think they will generally push that one down to the local level. But I would be happy to fight for it here in Lowell
			[9:11pm] Malt: The FCC removed states ability to regulate Muni internet
			[9:12pm] Malt: I've got the crypto party at the worcshop tomorrow
			[9:12pm] jokeefe: as long as they cannot prevent it
			[9:13pm] jokeefe: cool. I plan to make the one in January
			[9:13pm] Malt: Wait no, next week, NVM
			[9:13pm] Malt: It's not Jan yet
			[9:14pm] Malt: Fundraiser idea, sell pirate braned USB sticks with OSS software?
			[9:14pm] Malt: For a donation
			[9:14pm] Joe: I did come up with something that I want to do. Do we have a batch of magnets that we can distribute?
			[9:15pm] Joe: I would also like tee-shirts for a donation as well.
			[9:16pm] Joe: The lower the cost the easier the donation.
			[9:16pm] jokeefe: As long as we can verify that USB sticks don’t have viruses, that is fine
			[9:17pm] Malt: Your friends in the fight for freedom
			[9:17pm] Malt: The pirate party
			[9:18pm] Malt: Hah, deliberately loading malware for disgruntled employees to unleash on corporate networks?
			[9:18pm] Joe: oOo, that reminds me, I have a slogan I wanted to throw at you peoples.
			[9:18pm] jokeefe: ok
			[9:18pm] Malt: That's pirating at Max capacity
			[9:18pm] Joe: I would not recommend that.
			[9:18pm] Malt: Aw!
			[9:18pm] Joe: Then we could be held for damages and that whole mess.
			[9:19pm] Malt: Iirc there's already product s like that, protected from liability
			[9:20pm] Malt: USB sticks that fry main boards
			[9:20pm] Malt: Eh, anyway
			[9:21pm] Joe: Anyways, the slogan I was thinking was...... "Mass Pirates, fighting for a real democracy!"
			[9:21pm] jokeefe: yeah, not a good idea to fry people’s computers
			[9:21pm] AndyK: haha
			[9:22pm] Joe: Or instead of Mass pirates, The Pirate Party.
			[9:22pm] Joe: Toasted computers make me sad, I break enough of them as it is, lol
			[9:22pm] jokeefe: heh
			[9:23pm] Joe: Though I do love a good frankiencomp
			[9:24pm] Joe: Do we have spare items we could slap on a webpage?
			[9:24pm] jokeefe: It looks like a good slogan
			[9:25pm] jokeefe: which spare items?
			[9:25pm] Joe: Well, to be true to it, we should put it to a vote for the entire party.
			[9:25pm] Joe: Like shirts, usbs or magnets it would seem.
			[9:26pm] Joe: Though, as usual, I am open to many possiblities.
			[9:30pm] Malt: We could do an e waste drive?
			[9:30pm] Joe: I would be happy to support that.
			[9:30pm] jokeefe: well, if someone(s) wants to work on it and get something that works, then we can determine how much we can put to expanding it
			[9:31pm] Malt: That wouldn't cost much to setup, could charge people to come take their junk computers and laptops
			[9:31pm] jokeefe: where do we put it when we have it?
			[9:31pm] Malt: Boston metro, where our base is
			[9:32pm] jokeefe: the ewaste?
			[9:32pm] Joe: one of the companies I was planning to make was to process that, but there are a few options I could give you as well.
			[9:32pm] Malt: Seems like y'all would have more e waste sites
			[9:32pm] Joe: We need one in Lowell, the other guy just shut down.
			[9:33pm] Malt: It would be a good way to get dead machines for the right to repair graveyard idea I had back in October
			[9:33pm] jokeefe: I know that Somerville will take it
			[9:33pm] Joe: It's a tough gig if you don't have the right equipment for the job due to the needed regulations for toxic disposal.
			[9:33pm] jokeefe: What about other municipalities
			[9:33pm] jokeefe: ?
			[9:34pm] Malt: Yeah I think it's usually done in 3rd world countries by child slaves
			[9:34pm] Malt: But we don't need to tell folks that
			[9:34pm] Joe: We could look in to the cost to rent a box truck and make sure it goes to a proper disposal facility.
			[9:35pm] Malt: If we're offering home pickup starting with one town seems smart
			[9:35pm] Malt: Depending on turnout we might need many drivers
			[9:36pm] Joe: I can see that growing in to an operation all by itself
			[9:36pm] Malt: Obvs pickup is for stuff bigger than a phone
			[9:37pm] Joe: True. Plus a lot of money can be made if done right.
			[9:37pm] Joe: I was working on such a thing with a chemist in CA
