11/28   Who keeps killing the motd?
        \_ I did. I requested the person who selectively nuked my humour posts
           to explain his action. He not only responded defiantly with "because
           it is lame", he deleted my other posts. I warned him and now I will
           begin the 5 day nuke. Please respect my protest, and leave
           motd nuked. Thanks.                                     -humour gu
           \_ Everyone gets their shit deleted here.  Everyone.  The typical
              post rarely lasts more than an hour when there are a lot of
              people on the motd, and I've had posts dissapear in literally
              seconds.  Sometimes it's malice, sometimes it's boredom, and
              sometimes it's just an accident.  Either way, the only way
              to have your posts last is to write them in your own backup
              file and cut and paste them back in if they're deleted almost
              instantly.  If it's still deleted everytime, someone has more
              spare time than you and cares more and you just need to let
              it go.  What you're doing now really doesn't solve anything.
           \_ This is the most pathetic thing I've heard on the motd
              for a while now.  Please grow up.  If you really think it's
              worth sharing, either keep posting it here or find another
              forum that appreciates your humor.    -rollee
           \_ Respect my cornhole, you filthy bitch.  Piss off and die.  -John
           \_ if you do this, how are you any better than ilyas?
              \_ Because this guy is anonymous.
           \_ Well, now the only rational course of action is to nuke every
              so-called humor post.  You want scorched earth?  You got it.
           \_ Here in America son, we type "humor".

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
