Visitor Advice
Come Visit!
We advise you visit us at some point. It rocks!
Come with an open mind
We're probably not what you expect, and you might not be what we were expecting. Life is full of little surprises, and we're doing what we can to keep it that way. Mostly we want to learn about things, and build nifty stuff. Some of us like tearing things apart, or inventing. But, we're game for pretty much any creative endvor or chance to learn, from languages to lockpicking, woodworking to knitting mathematics, and everything in between.
Don't eat that!
We are not child safe. We are barely adult safe. Folks entering the space can be exposed to adult-themed ideas, concepts, language and items. We have some tools and materials that can be hazardous if used improperly. Children are welcome to the space with close adult supervision, and adults, just be prepared for what you may encounter.
Guests of the Members
Guests are always welcome. If you're a guest of a member, please be considerate, and treat people (and their stuff), as you (and your stuff) would like to be treated. Clean up after yourself, ask before using tools/guff, and most importantly, have fun!
Hostile network
The network at Hive76 should be regarded as potentially hostile. This means that you should assume that any unencrypted communications over the network could be seen by others. We discourage destructive tinkering, but it is wise to be aware of the potential for sniffing/tracking of internet activity. Stick to using SSL or secure VPNs for anything you don't want other people in the room to read (including passwords). If you don't know how to protect your communications with encryption, someone would be glad to help you. Thanks to Noisebridge for the great Visitor Advice template!
