Snippet:

From: tzs <at> stein.u.washington.edu (Tim Smith) Organization: University of Washington, Seattle
I was working on a line printer spooler, which lived in /etc. I wanted to remove it, and so issued the command "rm /etc/lpspl." There was only one problem. Out of habit, I typed "passwd" after "/etc/" and removed the password file. Oops. I called up the person who handled backups, and he restored the password file. A couple of days later, I did it again! This time, after he restored it, he made a link, /etc/safe_from_tim. About a week later, I overwrote /etc/passwd, rather than removing it. After he restored it again, he installed a daemon that kept a copy of /etc/passwd, on another file system, and automatically restored it if it appeared to have been damaged. Fortunately, I finished my work on /etc/lpspl around this time, so we didn't have to see if I could find a way to wipe out a couple of filesystems... --Tim Smith

I have a few more videos close to completion. I expect to have a few more out over the winter.
The goal is to have most, if not all, of the videos out before the next Con.
I have also been working with remote presentations for my amateur radio club via Skype and recording the talks.
Attached is a link of a video I made in that manner of amateur radio on the International Space Station.

This technique could be helpful if we have someone on the other side of the country who we would really like to give a talk at NYCBUG.

that looked very cool.<br>
Zrouter a FreeBSD platform for embedded devices<br><a href="http://zrouter.org/projects/zrouter/wiki" target="_blank">http://zrouter.org/projects/zrouter/wiki</a> .<br>
Has anyone tried this thing yet ?<br><br>
