2012/8/29-11/7 [Computer/SW/Security] UID:54467 Activity:nil | 8/29 There was once a CSUA web page which runs an SSH client for logging
on to soda. Does that page still exist? Can someone remind me of the
URL please? Thx.
\_ what do you mean? instruction on how to ssh into soda?
\_ No I think he means the ssh applet, which, iirc, was an applet
that implemented an ssh v1 client. I think this page went away

good place that can custom build for you (SSD, large RAM, cheap video
card--no game)?
\_ As a side note: back in my Cal days more than two decades ago when
having a 387SX made me the only person with floating-point hardware,
most machines were custom built.

expressions in a file? Basically I want to combine "grep -f <file>"
to store the patterns and awk's $3 ~ /(AAA|BBB|CCC)/ ... I realize
I can do this with "egrep -f " and use regexp instead of strings, but
was wondering if there was some magic way to do this.
\_ UNIX has no magic. Make a shell script to produce the ask or egrep

people used /usr/bin/mail, then RMail in emacs, then VMail in emacs.
After my days people used Elm, Pine, Mutt (I forgot which order). In
my first two jobs we could tell the seniority of fellow engineers based
on which email program they use at work, because everyone used what
they used to use in their school years. In my last two jobs though,

\_ Unix or m$?
\_ Unix. On M$ I always assume it's compromised.
\_ Install Tripwire before you plug your server into The Net?
The only other answer I can think of is to reinstall the
OS from scratch on another server and do an md checksum

new ink to inkjet printers to prevent them from drying and clogging
heads? Or will it just magically work once I add in new ink
in a few months?
\_ The nozzles will clog. Print a test sheet every couple weeks.
Or remove the cartridges and put cellophane tape over the nozzles,

the following?
- Windows 8
- Windows Server "8"
\_ Because when they didn't do it, code didn't see the '\0'
and went over? Looks better than '8','\0' *shrug*

36"x36"? I'm wondering how many megapixels the image need to
have in order for the print to "look good". There is a rule of
thumb? Like 6 megapixel is good for X size print. 10 megapixel
is good for Y size print. Thanks.
\_ You don't need that many more megapixels for much bigger prints,
