come to think of it a proxy regardless of using it for censorship would be good anyways just for it's caching capability. If we haven't been using one we should, given that our bandwidth is usually sucking, maybe we can free some up by caching stuff, the proxy should be transparent. <div>On 4/25/07, Jeff Lawton <<a href="mailto:jeff@idealso.com">jeff@idealso.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"> Lee is planning on attending next year I sure he would share his squid configuration files to make the lounge a safe place for kids.

WE DON'T CENSOR THE COMPUTER LOUNGE people could look at pr0n on the computers, it would be slow but they could. they could look at pictures of people with bullet wounds (or there face blown off, and I know where to find some of this). we aren't censoring things. I think It would just be better to have a sign kids under the age of 18 _should_ be accompanied by an adult, and we are not responsible for anything they are exposed to, including but not limited to, profanity, violence, and nudity. Unless someone wants to install nanny software and lock the terminal server down next year. Maybe I'll pull a Tyler Durden with the projector to prove a point (if you don't get the reference go watch, or read the book, "fight club", I have copies of both). <div>On 4/24/07, Chick Tower <<a href="mailto:c.e.tower@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">c.e.tower@gmail.com </a>> wrote: <blockquote>Dude, what's with all the hate?  Kids are beautiful, man.  Next year, instead of banning them, we should have activities for them, like teaching them freedom songs about Richard Stallman and Linus Torvalds, painting pictures with The Gimp, and a _March of the Penguins_/_Happy Feet_ double-feature on the MythTV box.  Maybe even a Breakfast with Tux, featuring scrambled penguin eggs and kippers, if Penguicon will loan us their costume.  Then we could print up Penguin Hatchling certificates for them to take home. Seriously, though, what is with all the negative references to children in the computer lounge?  I spent as much time there as anyone, and I didn't see any problems with them.  They didn't deprive anyone of use of the terminals, didn't run around or scream and yell.  You don't even know if that was their empty condom box that was found.                                 Chick Someone Who Shall Remain Anonymous wrote: > ...It's just a lot simpler to boot the kids, or if we aren't > willing to boot them permanently, boot them after 7:00 or something and > then flip the gaming machines into gaming mode until morning, then go > back to terminals for the daytime. _______________________________________________ linux-user mailing list <a href="mailto:linux-user@egr.msu.edu" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">linux-user@egr.msu.edu</a> <a href="http://mailman.egr.msu.edu/mailman/listinfo/linux-user" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://mailman.egr.msu.edu/mailman/listinfo/linux-user</a> </blockquote> </div> -- Caleb Cushing <pre><hr size="4" width="90%"> _______________________________________________ linux-user mailing list <a href="mailto:linux-user@egr.msu.edu" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">linux-user@egr.msu.edu</a> <a href="http://mailman.egr.msu.edu/mailman/listinfo/linux-user" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://mailman.egr.msu.edu/mailman/listinfo/linux-user</a> </pre> </blockquote> </div> </blockquote></div> -- Caleb Cushing
