Thurman J:

Places to go near campus:

As well as the Starbucks on campus in D'Angelo, there are several places nearby the St. John's University campus to get food and snacks.

Here are some: 

* Across the street the campus is Regina's Pizza, which we found to be a nice place while setting things up at St. John's University. It's on the corner of Utopia Parkway and Union Turnpike -- exit gate 4 or 5, turn right

* 7-11 at 168th and Union Turnpike (open 24 hours) -- exit gate 5, turn left

* Dunkin’ Donuts at 168th and Union Turnpike (open 6 AM to 10 PM) -- exit gate 5, turn left

* Shopping center at corner of Union Turnpike and Utopia Parkway -- exit gate 4 or 5, turn right, cross Utopia Parkway

* There's also a dumpling place, a bodega, and a Subway down the block, plus a sushi place and a bakery across the street -- exit gate 4 or 5, turn right

* Sheik Shack - does Burgers and Masala fries. 82-37C, 164th St, Queens, NY 11432. 1100-0100hrs most nights

You’ll do best finding places by getting out and exploring! Union Turnpike is a more commercial street than Utopia Parkway.

Places in Queens to check out:

* Queens Night Market (Saturday night, 5 PM - midnight) -
4701 111th St, Queens, NY
https://www.queensnightmarket.com/

* New World Mall, Flushing (open daily until 10 PM) -
https://www.newworldmallny.com/shopping-center/ Flushing is the center of Queens’s Chinatown, and this shopping center has a huge food court!

*Unofficial Bar:
Emerald Pub
183-01 Horace Harding Expy
(near hotels)

*Great sandwiches:
Double J Deli
16802 Union Tpke

If you want to travel via public transit, double-check instructions at mta.info to make sure that buses and trains are running (and when they will arrive!). Alternatively, take a carshare service like Lyft or Uber (don’t expect to be able to hail a cab near campus).

Thurman J: /* 1. The HOPE matric server is going down soon, what do I do? */

== 1. Migrate your account! ==
'''The hope.net Matrix server will be shut down''' a while after the conference ends. When this happens, all accounts, rooms, and communities on riot.hope.net/matrix.hope.net will disappear.
Before that happens, be sure to:
* Make contact with your new friends outside Matrix, or with accounts (both you and them!) not on hope.net:
* Create a new Matrix account on another homeserver, for example https://chat.fairydust.space/ or https://riot.privacytools.io/
* If you want to, [https://ems.element.io/tools/matrix-migration| migrate your account] from hope.net to your new homeserver
** Your old homeserver would be matrix.hope.net, and your new one would be e.g. matrix.fairydust.space
** For best results, sign out of both accounts while it runs - Make sure you wrote down your encryption key before signing out!
* Join #afterhope2020:fairydust.space to keep chatting
* If you have any problems, ask in the tech support channel!

Note: Your new account will not be able to authenticate with CoreBot, since your ticket has already been used. This doesn't really matter, since the attendee channels will be locked soon (if they aren't already).

2. Where are the Villages?

2a. Aren't most of the villages supposed to be open all day? How do I access them?
Access to the villages depends on the person in charge of the village. After a BBB session for the village has been started the person in charge will put a link on their village wiki page. (links above) You can also sign up for any of the workshops if they offer them.

3. Where is the transcription?
The transcription links are updated on [[REAL_TIME_TEXT]] page (one transcription per talk or keynote). Please note that the wiki for the real time text may not update immediately, so ask for the otter ai link in the Q&A channel if it's not there.

4. I wasn't invited to all the channels or I don't see all the channels in Matrix. How do I fix it?
The HOPE Matrix Bot aka [[Conference_bot]] is your friend. Message the bot with your ticket and it will invite you.
Some users have had to log out and log back in or switch browsers to get channels to show back up.

5. Do I have to provide an email address?
Adding your email for registration is optional. If you add an email you are required to verify it before you can log in.

6. I didn't get a confirmation email for a workshop I signed up for.
There is no confirmation sent after you sign up for a workshop. You should receive an email with the room information about an hour before the workshop.

7. I can't sign up for a workshop why is the limit so low?
Starting Sunday (7/26/2020) all workshops are open. You don't have to sign up for them. The link will be announced about 10 mins before it begins in the #announcements:hope.net and #workshops:hope.net matrix channels.

8. Will workshops be recorded so I can watch them later?
Most workshops aren't going to be recorded to watch later. That is up to the person giving the workshop. A list of workshops that were recorded will be available later.

9. I missed a talk! Where can I watch the replay?
Don't worry the talks are being archived. You can find them on Archive dot org and on livestream dot com

13. My workshop link keeps taking me to the wrong event! How do I make it stop?

14. Where can I get the music that's playing between the talks?
The music is by Cameron Glass, and it's available on Bandcamp for free here: http://cameronglass.bandcamp.com/album/hope-2020-soundtrack

= HOPE 2020 is Happening! =

'''HOPE 2020''' is a '''NINE DAY EVENT''', spanning from Saturday, July 25th and running through Sunday, August 2nd, 2020. The event is entirely online, and will include scheduled talks, workshops, keynotes, concerts, and more! Registered attendees are able to interact live with presenters and each other.

Watch the live stream of talks and keynotes on the '''[https://hope.net/stream.html Hope Stream page]''' or the '''[https://livestream.com/internetsociety3/hope2020 ISOC livestream page]''' The livestream restarts after every talk - this is to segment for replay. When you see the ''''Changing Downlink Station'''' screen, '''reload''' the livestream page until you see the studio clock roll again.

To replay prior talks click on "'''Event posts'''" button (towards the upper right). This expands a listing of recorded talks. After a brief delay the talks are also posted to the '''[https://archive.org/details/hopeconf2020 Internet Archive]''' where they can be downloaded.

The links to real-time text transcriptions are on the '''[[REAL_TIME_TEXT]]''' page (one transcription per talk or keynote). Similarly, you will need to refresh this page as it is updated at the start of each session.

There is also '''[https://livestream.com/internetsociety2/hope2020 HOPE Livestream Channel 2]''' - that is mainly for announcements, as well as a few other items.

== Workshops ==
There are approximately 60 workshops scheduled throughout HOPE 2020!

Find the listing of workshops in the Schedule and Workshop links at https://www.hope.net. In addition, here is a listing of [https://wiki.hope.net/index.php workshop Wiki pages] and a short FAQ, though not all workshops have developed their pages.

Workshop preregistration is '''NOT required'''. The workshop "room" will be announced in the "!HOPE Announcements" and "Workshops" matrix chats before each workshop begins. These chat rooms are available to all ticket holders. Some workshops have limited capacity (just like a physical workshop room does!), so workshop presenters may limit some attendees to only being able to view the workshop. Use the "Workshops" chat room if you have questions or issues. More info on each workshop is available on this HOPE 2020 wiki (you can search for the workshop name).

== Villages ==
HOPE 2020 has cool Villages, where cool things may be happening at any time! Some have scheduled workshops, films, and performances as well. Info on each Village is available on their HOPE wiki page:

** If you want to use a client other than the web client (like an iOS or Android client), you may need to specify your homeserver (eg. matrix.fairydust.space or matrix.hope.net) as the server name.
** If you'd like to keep in touch with new friends from HOPE 2020 in the event that the HOPE Matrix server goes offline, a public Matrix room with the address '''#hope-2020:hackers.town''' that can be joined from [https://www.hello-matrix.net/public_servers.php any Matrix server] has been created.

== Information for volunteers ==

See our [[Volunteering]] page for a synopsis of roles. Utilize the email group list you are already on, to ask questions or check in. You can also use the volunteer area of the Matrix chat.

== Donate to the EFF! ==

We want to help give back by holding a fundraiser for the EFF during the
nine days of HOPE. We believe we can bring in $10,000 over that period.
Throughout the conference, many EFF people will be giving talks on
topics like the evils of Ring, mobile privacy, the Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act, facial recognition, and more. And the traditional
"Ask the EFF" panel is always a favorite with our attendees.

So please join with us and be among the first to support EFF so they'll
be there for all of us in the future. We have a feeling we're going to
be needing them.

The special HOPE link to donate is https://eff.org/HOPE2020

= Hackers Helping to Fight COVID-19 =

The unprecedented health threats and global response to the COVID-19 pandemic
have impacted everyone. Many hackers, makers, educators, and others have put
their skills to use by contributing to solutions to a wide range of challenges.

These contributions are the essence of the hacker spirit: People using their
skills, intelligence and energy to help other people. Hackers are helping by
designing, making and distributing much-needed medical supplies. They are
helping by creating communication forums, informative websites, software, and
safe entertainment. They are helping by fighting disinformation, and doing
research and experimentation to investigate solutions and mitigations.

'''On [[Helping#Hackers_Helping_to_Fight_COVID-19|this page]], we have collected links to some of the projects,
products, groups, and activities that highlight how hackers are helping.'''

Matrix How-To

Thurman J:

=== How to join chat ===

* Create or sign in to a Matrix account
* Talk to our [[Conference_bot|CoreBot]] to get access to the chat rooms

For help with the bot, please see the [[Conference_bot|CoreBot help]].

=== Using the Web Client ===

Visit https://riot.hope.net/ to create an account ([[Matrix_How-To#How_to_create_your_HOPE_Matrix_account_on_the_web_.28slideshow.29|walkthrough]]), then send the [[Conference_bot|bot]] (@corebot:hope.net) a direct message with the command <code>ticket</code> then your ticket code. [[Conference_bot|More information]]

=== Desktop and Mobile Matrix Clients ===

If you wish to use your own client instead of riot.hope.net, we recommend [https://element.io/get-started element]. It supports iOS, Android, and desktop (Windows/Mac/Linux).

You will need to set the client to use a custom homeserver of <code>matrix.hope.net</code> if you wish to use an account on our server. You can see a screenshot of how to do this below.

Once you are signed in to your account, send the [[Conference_bot|bot]] (@corebot:hope.net) a direct message with the command <code>ticket</code> then your ticket code. [[Conference_bot|More information]]

[[File:Matrix-mobile-homeserver.png|440px|Screenshot overview of setting a custom homeserver in element]]

=== Troubleshooting ===

* '''The desktop client isn't working''' Wait a few minutes and try again. Make sure you're using the correct homeserver (see above)! If it's still not working, try the web client.
* '''I'm missing a channel''' or '''I can't join a channel''' Send the bot the ticket command and your code again, it will try again to invite you to rooms.

=== How to create your HOPE Matrix account on the web (slideshow) ===

Note: adding your email for registration is ''optional''. If you add an email you are required to verify it before you can log in.
<gallery mode="slideshow">
Image:matrix1_fix.png|Direct your browser to https://riot.hope.net.
Image:matrix2.png|Enter your preferred signup details. You can always change your display name later, but you can't change your username, so choose wisely!

Image:matrix4.png|Continue to log in.

Watch the live stream of talks and keynotes: https://www.internetsociety.org/events/hope-conference-2020/ (also includes a second stream for information and some workshops).

== Helpful information for attendees and presenters ==

* [[Civility]] and the HOPE Code of Conduct. All participants are asked to be part of a safe and healthy conference.

== Information for volunteers ==

See our [[Volunteering]] page for a synopsis of roles. Utilize the email group list you are already on, to ask questions or check in. You can also use the volunteer area of the Matrix chat.

== Donate to the EFF! ==

We want to help give back by holding a fundraiser for the EFF during the
nine days of HOPE. We believe we can bring in $10,000 over that period.
Throughout the conference, many EFF people will be giving talks on
topics like the evils of Ring, mobile privacy, the Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act, facial recognition, and more. And the traditional
"Ask the EFF" panel is always a favorite with our attendees.

So please join with us and be among the first to support EFF so they'll
be there for all of us in the future. We have a feeling we're going to
be needing them.

The special HOPE link to donate is https://eff.org/HOPE2020

= Hackers Helping to Fight COVID-19 =

The unprecedented health threats and global response to the COVID-19 pandemic
have impacted everyone. Many hackers, makers, educators, and others have put
their skills to use by contributing to solutions to a wide range of challenges.

These contributions are the essence of the hacker spirit: People using their
skills, intelligence and energy to help other people. Hackers are helping by
designing, making and distributing much-needed medical supplies. They are
helping by creating communication forums, informative websites, software, and
safe entertainment. They are helping by fighting disinformation, and doing
research and experimentation to investigate solutions and mitigations.

'''On [[Helping#Hackers_Helping_to_Fight_COVID-19|this page]], we have collected links to some of the projects,
products, groups, and activities that highlight how hackers are helping.'''

= HOPE 2020 is Happening! =

HOPE 2020 will be a NINE DAY EVENT, beginning on Saturday, July 25th and running through Sunday, August 2nd, 2020. The event will be entirely online, and will include scheduled talks, workshops, keynotes, concerts, and more! Registered attendees will be able to interact live with presenters and each other.

Watch the live stream of talks and keynotes: https://www.internetsociety.org/events/hope-conference-2020/ (also includes a second stream for information and some workshops).

The links to real-time text transcriptions are on the [[REAL_TIME_TEXT]] page (one transcription per talk or keynote).

== Workshop registration ==
Workshop registration began Friday July 24. Visit the Schedule page at https://www.hope.net, select the workshop you want to register for, then provide your ticket code. Note that some workshops have limited capacity, and are first-come.

== Donate to the EFF! ==

We want to help give back by holding a fundraiser for the EFF during the
nine days of HOPE. We believe we can bring in $10,000 over that period.
Throughout the conference, many EFF people will be giving talks on
topics like the evils of Ring, mobile privacy, the Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act, facial recognition, and more. And the traditional
"Ask the EFF" panel is always a favorite with our attendees.

So please join with us and be among the first to support EFF so they'll
be there for all of us in the future. We have a feeling we're going to
be needing them.

The special HOPE link to donate is https://eff.org/HOPE2020

= Hackers Helping to Fight COVID-19 =

The unprecedented health threats and global response to the COVID-19 pandemic
have impacted everyone. Many hackers, makers, educators, and others have put
their skills to use by contributing to solutions to a wide range of challenges.

These contributions are the essence of the hacker spirit: People using their
skills, intelligence and energy to help other people. Hackers are helping by
designing, making and distributing much-needed medical supplies. They are
helping by creating communication forums, informative websites, software, and
safe entertainment. They are helping by fighting disinformation, and doing
research and experimentation to investigate solutions and mitigations.

'''On [[Helping#Hackers_Helping_to_Fight_COVID-19|this page]], we have collected links to some of the projects,
products, groups, and activities that highlight how hackers are helping.'''

Thurman J: Creating user page for new user.

I work/have worked on governmental transparency and accountability. This has included work on legislation as well as publishing findings on our website, jointhegram.org, as well as a local news outlet. In addition, I am currently in a legal battle with a number of local governmental agencies and their IT company over the disclosure of records. We are also doing data analysis on some of the information we have obtained and hopefully will publish the results in the near future.
