3/10 Is there still a difference between US and int'l encryption on
browsers?
Yes. I'm assuming you know what the difference is, but if you don't,
I'd be glad to explain it. -dans
\_ Maybe not. I thought only US version is 128 bit strong
encryption but now it seems that int'l version is also like
that. Does that have to do with the recent legislation?
\_ Ah, I forgot. Recent legislation allows companies to
export strong encryption on a case by case basis. I'm
unfortunately not aware of the gory legal details. What
you suggest sounds quite possible though. -dans
\_ Once again we see dans mouthing off about something he knows nothing
about....
\_ You nuked my response to this as well as someone's followup
comment stating that it wasn't legislation, but executive
action, and that it hadn't gone into effect yet. You also
nuked my response to your asanine comment pointing out that
1) My original reponse, that the difference still exists is
correct and 2) I very clearly stated that I am uncertain of
the gory legal details. Either add something useful or piss
off, but don't nuke useful responses. -dans

P.S. Sign yer posts you twink.
\_ I nuked nothing. Go fuck yourself. The motd got nuked
flat many times today and I restored the copy I had which
was better than the zero bytes here. Did I tell you to
\_ Go fuck yourself. When your done, go stick your head
in a pig. While you're at it, sign yer posts. -dans
go fuck yourself, yet? Oh yes, I did. -happily not dans
\_ Go fuck yourself. Repeat. Then go stick your head in
a pig.

\_ Once again dans reaches new heights of maturity
and leadership on the motd.
\_ Yes, and the motd has always been such a bastion
of maturity in this sober and reserved
organization. -dans
\_ The pig lacks a mouth. How does it eat?
\_ Now that you've added a mouth so the pig can
eat, where does the food go after it digests?
\_ The *real* question is: how does the user
that movie did. And now that it has a
mouth, what would it say with such an
uncomfortable object up it's ASS??
\_ Thanks for answering my queries regarding
the lack of mouth and where the food goes
when it digests. I notice that
the pig is now dead and cooked. So does
that mean the guy with the head in the
pig can eat his way out now?
breathe?
\_ I also have another question, i forgot to
ask before: why does the pig have an "n"
for ears? I thought pigs had more pointy
and large ears -- at least the one in
that movie did. I did not realize pigs
could talk until I saw that movie. Since
this pig now has a mouth, what would it
say with such an uncomfortable object up
it's ASS??
\_ Also, thanks for answering my queries
regarding the lack of mouth and where

\_ More importantly, where do you stick the apple
when you cook it?
\_ dans, you are truly the van gogh of our generation.
\_ Can I have his spare ear?
\_ Wow, dans, you sure showed me with that ancient ascii 'art'
rip off. Your lame rip off doesn't make you any less stupid
or ignorant. If you spent more time on issues like the
problem with the treasurer or the mail spools rather than
posting crap to the motd and proving your manhood by signing
your garbage then maybe someone would have some respect for
you instead of pissing down your throat on the motd
everyday. You reap what you sow. By signing you show not
that you're a real studboy but that you take the motd too
seriously and are just a twit and an incompetent imbecile
incapable of performing the most basic duties of the office
you voluntarily ran for. Do your job. No one gives a shit
if you sign your filth.
\_ Fuck you, you twink. Problem with treasurer: he doesn't
read his soda mail, and I solve this how? Force him to
read his e-mail with the evil e-mail water cure torture?
I don't think so. Impeach him? Who's going to replace
him? You? Are you even eligible for the politburo?
Even if you are, you won't even claim responsibility for
your posts on the motd, so why the hell should anyone
expect you to be any better as treasurer? In light of
the situation, mikeh and I did the best thing possible:
we routed around it. Note our repeated admonitions to
send inquiries regarding donations to one of us, not
twohey.
Problem with the mail spools:
Short term answer:
a) I don't have root. b) machines have been the VP's
domain for a long time. mikeh and the other root staff
do a damn good job of managing things. I'm not going to
step on their toes by madly gzipping offender's
mailspools and dropping them in their home directories.
If that's the right thing to do in this situation, then
the root staff will do it. It's their decision. a) if
there is a different solution (i.e. reducing mail
quotas), they'll pursue it, but, regardless, it remains
their decision.
Long term answer:
Get more disk. Duh. I'll repeat what I've said before:
There's talk of a soda upgrade. Because we don't know
the exact kind of disk (SCSI, duh, but what kind of
SCSI?) we'll be using, we're not going to rush out and
buy a disk to solve today's mail spool problem if we
can't use it in new soda a month from now. Until either
soda gets upgraded or we decide it's not going to
happen, buying a disk is out of the question. If
someone has a spare disk they can donate, that might
help, but most of the offers we've seen have been
to buy or supply funds for the purchase of a disk.
As important to the CSUA as soda is, soda != CSUA, and
my job is not to baby sit it. If you want to criticize
the job I've done as prez, try actually reading the
job description first (it's in the CSUA constitution).
I don't sign my posts because I believe in owning my
words. I do it independent of the medium. I suppose
you must have difficulty owning your words, seeing as
they're all shit. -dans
P.S. No rip-off, it's straight out of the CSUA
Encyclopedia. Frankly I think the subsequent
discussion is damned funny.
\_ Have some balls. Impeach him, give someone else the
opportunity to do it. An empty office is better
than a do-nothing office. As far as the CSUA
Constitution goes, I wrote parts of it. I think I
know what it says. Don't use a piece of paper to
hide your ineffective cowardess. Stand up and do
the right thing. "It's not my job!" is the lamest
weakest cop-out ever given. Make it your job! Those
who came before and will be coming after will
appreciate it. Don't be another worthless resume
stuffing figurehead. |
