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

csua.com/?entry=30846It's nice to know your sociopathy and pettiness haven't mellowed. I don't know him, his archive is cool, but the story as I see it reminds me of Giuliani-- nobody likes him until the last minute, and then he's a hero. What got him squished (be more specific than "motd munging")? I'd also invite kchang (and kchang #n fans) to respond with their versions. it seems to me that it is a private administrative matter. These days I just ignore tom, and yell at myself in private. If you want I can vouch for you, would you prefer to be redirected to another porn site?

csua.com/?entry=30915beta at the end of the url -kchang \_ It's nice that you're archiving history and all but I don't see why you care so much. Is this some compensation response to getting your account restored after so long away? You have absolutely no right to access his website nor whine when he restricts you from it. Public services such as this one rely on reputation, and if Kevin's going to be petty and vindictive (if that's the case) the archive should just be forgotten. I always assume the servers run by others are untrustworthy in every sense. How is his archive different from the rcs archives a few people run here and make publicly readable as far as trustworthy goes? They could easily edit things, change what people said or didn't say, etc. And all of this becomes moot when you consider the source of kchang's data is the motd which is a publicly writable, and mostly pseudo-anonymous file. Why are you so concerned about the trustworthiness of the archiving of an untrustworthy shared text file? Write your own and put it on the net if it bugs you so much. I don't know the guy, I don't know why he got squished or why he was restored. The whole kchang motd archive is being taken way too seriously, IMHO \_ Coding is my hobby.

csua.com/?entry=30919If it's the latter, email me and I'll change it to a porn site of ***your choice*** -kchang \_ kchang. He is petty and vindictive so the CSUA doesn't have to be. No one is paying him anything and most people haven't even thanked him. By pointing out why he is a total jerkass in public, you're also making a big ass outa yourself. Even more importantly, by doing so you've closed all opportunities to get off of his blacklist. I was on the blacklist too but instead of making a big deal in public I emailed him nicely and and both of us got what we wanted. Now that opportunity is gone, just accept it and move on and go to another site. No one else is forcing you to see his site and no one is bitching about this. If he didn't change his ways after the second or third time, I doubt a lengthier iteration #8 is going to make much difference. You're a remarkably petty person, as far as your interactions with this group are concerned. Stop being a sourpuss and just accept that sometimes, people just don't like you. If you're going to selectively delete people's posts, at least delete the ENTIRE thing. However, you do need to evaluate how you got to the point in your life where you would be making the post that you just did. On the other hand, I like Kais motd, it pretty much rocks, even if I can't understand his modivation. I like posting to motd because I like arguing anonymously with a whole bunch of people of above average intelligence. Anyway, the bottom line is that I hope kchang gets better. entry=30846 It's nice to know your sociopathy and pettiness haven't mellowed.
