4/24    Why is soda being retired in ~70 days? What's going to happen
    to the physical box?
        \_ What? Where did you get that information? Also, soda hasn't
           physically existed for like a year or two now.
           \_ Hmm, then what does "There are 71 days remaining" mean?
          \_ No clue. Some random person having fun. We leave the text blob  up
             because what reason would we have to interfere and take it down?
              \_ this is who we are
                 \_ "This is who we are."
              \_ No clue. Some random person having fun. We leave the text

        \_ you know, AWS is so cheap these days, we should just host it
           on AWS. Advantage: alumni can handle the sysadm job... it's
           hosted outside of Berkeley.
           \_ You know, I think the csua should stay inside berkeley. and
              not be "amazon campus outreach".
           \_ Seattle is nice I hear, how's Amazon paying you these days?
           \_ Sweet you should just start up a host and not tell the undergrads.
           \_ im not sure you know what you are talking about.  Amazon bucket
              storage is very cheap.  Hosting VMs at Amazon, not cheap.
           \_ An alumnus can technically handle the sysadm job now, because our
           machines are all virtualized anyway.
           \_ Whoa. I had no idea. Who owns/runs the physical hosts?
              \_ The VP. Who did you expect?
                 \_ Sorry, the syntax, "our machines are all virtualized" made
                    me think that CSUA no longer owned physical machines, just
                    VMs hosted elsewhere. (Hey, UCB should build a cloud?)
                    \_ Wow are you in marketing?  What other buzzwords do you
                       recite?
              \_ Nothing is stopping you from doing it now, just set up your
                 AWS and leave.  Seriously.  Quit bitching and moaning- we are
                 lucky this exists.  Just leave.
                  \_ WORD. What part of "This is BEAR TERRITORY" does Amazon
                     Lackey not get?
                 \_ Seconded. -grateful alum.
