1/7     As an Asian woman on Soda, I find the Asian Women MOTD post to be
        quite offensive. If you must post this kind of trash, please post
        it on trash newsgroups like alt.i.like.asian.girls.
        \_ as a non uptight person on soda I find the size of the stick
           up your ass to be quite offensive.  If you must be so uptight
           please keep it to yourself or better yet go shoot yourself.
        \_ How do you know the foreign-language-speaking woman in
           question was Asian?  Perhaps she was a strapping Teutonic
           blonde, making her comments in German.  It's sad, the way
           that people jump to conclusions and rush to take offense.
        \_ Idiot/feminazi.(redundant?)
           There was nothing really specific to "asian girls".
           It could well have been "I was working near an air-duct, and
           I heard this girl say "I think xyz is a cute guy". It just so
           happened that the different language issue brought up the issue,
           instead of an airduct, or hidden message, or "I can lipread", or...

9/26    I remember there was web version of the motd with search function
        (originally due to kchang ?).  The last time I used it it was hosted
        on the csua website but I can't remember its url (onset of dementia?)
        now. Can somebody plz post it, tnx.

9/4     It looks like there are some issues with wallall at the moment. Any
        plans for it getting fixed? I can run wall, but wallall just gives an
        error.
        \_ Asking questions on the motd will not get any attention from
           any undergrad. You should email politburo or perhaps csua. -ausman

4/19    Motd updater thingy seems to be broken, does anyone know why?
        If not, I will take a look later in the day. -ausman
        \_ /etc/motd.public is not getting copied into /etc/motd for a while.
           \_ Now it works and no one knows why. Strange. -ausman

2/6     Um, what happened to http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~myname ?
        "The requested URL /~myname/ was not found on this server."
        \_ Try emailing root or politburo. I don't think that the
           undergrads use this machine anymore. -ausman
        \_ Ausman is mostly right. LDAP went down due to an expired cert and
           took down most of the rest of our stuff. It's probably a thing with

2/24    What newsreader should I use on soda?
        \_ USENIX? You serious? Everyone switched to RSS.
           \_ I think you mean usenet not usenix.  usenet was generally much
              better than blogs / rss (cf. comp.lang.c, comp.lang.perl,
              the usenet oracle, alt.* with digg, slashdot, etc.)
           link:reader.google.com is the best
