A clever trick to deal with students powering off workstations

One of the eternal curses of student Unix labs is students casuallyturning off workstations the way they turn off other PCs when they'redone with them. (A problem made worse by vendors putting glowing powerbuttons on the front panel of machines, where they become an easytemptation.)

In theory the answer to this is Wake-on-LAN. You probably have at leastone inaccessible computer per lab, so run a daemon on that that noticeswhen workstations are down and sends out a WoL packet to get

政府重新考慮原址保留皇后碼頭

眾志成城為公益。12月以來不理人多人少照往皇后碼頭辦各種活動,不單開拓了公共空間,也許也向社會顯示了民間團體保衛碼頭的決心,於是在立法會上,民間團體、專業意見、議員一致團結左右夾攻,總算迫到孫明揚講一

An irritation with current GUI interfaces

Why are programs so convinced that I have horizontal real estate to givethem? Everything seems to want to put important information in sidebarsand panels and so on (usually non-optional ones).

How to stop DiskSuite resyncing a mirror on Solaris 8

As we found out recently, fortunately not quite the hard way, it turnsout that there actually is a way to abort a mirror resync. If yourresyncing mirror is in a diskset, running ' metaset -s -r
