11/9    Maybe this was answered a long time ago, but why doesn't the MOTD
        displayed on the Soda website?
        \_ Someone with "issues" posted some really offensive stuff about
           a year ago and thus the web motd was pulled. Now there is nothing
           stopping you from keeping a copy in ~/public_html so you can read
           the motd via the web.
           \_ what was so offensive that it banned free speech?  what's the
              command to use the melhalf (sp) command to view archived motd's?
              (i promise to write it down this time).
              \_ ~marco/bin/motdbrowse ... you may need to poke around the
                 files in ~mehlhaff/tmp
                 \_ since the motd is offensive just about every day to someone
                    maybe you could give a general topic?  how could someone
                    decide which particular topic was the one?
                    \_ Think about something significant that happened last
                       year (say in sept.). And yes the motd offends people
                       everyday, but in this case someone was offended enough
                       to complain to root.
                        \_ and that someone happened to suck the dick of
                           the then CSUA president
                   \_ dude, blowjob beats motd every fucking time, as it
                      should. what kind of idiot are you? --aaron
                           \_ dude, blowjob beats motd every fucking time,
                              as it should. what kind of idiot are you? --aaron
                              \_ thank you. --erikred

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
