Look in /usr/local/csua/jobs/LucasArts for: 3D_Tools_Programmer Games_Programmer Level_Designer. I do not care to comment more on soda's "traditions", but I have observed that the soda environment is affecting me. I have grown increasingly hostile online, and this trend is disturbing. Several times in the past I've tried to moderate my online behavior, without success. Therefore, I am terminating my soda account, removing myself from csua@csua, and severing all other ties to the online portion of the Computer Science Undergraduate Association. I agreed that sometimes the posting on MOTD and WALL is quite offensive. I really think we should stop the flamming and use of dirty language in MOTD and WALLING! I admit that I have been growing increasingly hostile online as well, especially on some e-mail mailing lists. When I was a newbie I was really nice, and then I'm not, and I couldn't for the life of me figure out why I changed. Little did I realize that after every login, the motd would fly into my eyes and burn in my brain, subconsciously, of course, so that when I would check my mail, I would respond with such venom in order to release the negative energies pent up by said motd. I think that soda encourages every member of the community to understand each others behavior. When you begin to understand the inherent contradictions in the world, you become less two dimensional and less "nice" because nice is not so clear anymore. Growing up is a painful thing to do, but I encourage it. He is an idiot and should figure out how to change his personality and learn how to treat his friends. Everyone's learning and it's pointless to call other people idiot while you are learning yourself also. He is socially inept, often rude, and sometimes annoying, but he is certainly not an idiot. As such I think he would make a good employee, though not much of a friend. It means not doing things that can hurt other people's feelings. he could have simply avoided reading the walls \_ Nick had choice or choice had Nick ? and only checked out the motd now and then to keep up with events in general. There's nothing that says anyone has to be involved directly with the online crap on a daily basis just because they have a soda account. Posting to the motd was just a dramatic gesture he knew was bound to start the sort of flame war he claims he is trying to avoid in his own life. People trying to squish each other over nothing all the time is ridiculous. org it wants to be and then actually do something towards that end. Despite what some may think, chaos is *not* a good thing. Similarly, people who post things in contradiction to the politburo should be squished. All citizens of the US should carry passes at all times and their homes should be subject to search. All files should be inspected and if the owner cannot prove that the files are for the good of the state they should be shot. CSUA is not a club for the enjoyment of its users, it is an institution and should be respected and feared. fuck off -cypherpunk Soda is a piece of hardware and old hardware at that. Blustering blow hole snoozing with the buffalo nonsensical pencil "What about guns?
