 | | Re: New LUGNET server hardware details
|
| (...) That summarizes it pretty well. SATA is something like five times cheaper per byte, and that's not even counting that we'd need a more expensive motherboard with a SCSI controller. Right now, disk isn't really the bottleneck for the load, so (...) (23 years ago, 29-Feb-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

I've messed with all this stuff before, but it doesn't hurt to be reminded of it, (...) (23 years ago, 29-Feb-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

| | New LUGNET server hardware details
|
| So, we've purchased our cool new servers, from Cambridge, MA vendor "PCs for Everyone". Todd and I and several other friends have gotten systems from them before, and have been extremely pleased -- they know their stuff, including Linux, which is (...)

| | Re: w00t! Fund Drive for LUGNET Servers
|
| (...) Well, that's where the legal-words thing comes in. Maybe that category is actually broad enough to include us -- or could be, simply with the addition of a new mission statement. But maybe it has to be more focused than that. Maybe it fits (...) (23 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.finance)

| (...) I'm no tax expert, let alone a lawyer. But I'm not sure that Lugnet would fit under the 501(c)(3) definition -- a "charitable, educational, religious, literary, or scientific". And given that words in legalese don't mean what they mean in (...) (23 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.finance)

| | Re: AFOLs - The comic!

If something's just a "day job", and some bureaucratic change causes disruption, one can easily shrug and say, "oh well, it's not like it's anything that *matters*". But seriously disrupt (...)

I e-mailed Jake about this, actually, and he said that AFOLnet was simply done to make the comic more generic so that interal people don't just assume that Lugnet is (...)

| | Re: skirting port blocking?

We just blocked it at BU for Resnet, but we do allow students (...) (23 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

| | Re: Community Site 101
|
| (...) Plone is a CMS that runs on top of Zope. It's totally open source and written in Python (as is Zope itself). It's pretty cool, but it's a bit heavyweight in several ways. I don't think I'd want to run it on the same server that is doing the (...) (23 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)
