• Get a Snoonet BNC account (if you don't already have one), if you've been to Snoonet for more than a month
• set up a Quassel Core / ZNC server somewhere.
• Alternatively, ping crystalmett, browndawg, or skg for an account on their server.

Can I ask for programming / unix help?

Yes. We're not an official help channel, but regulars will often help you out with technical issues if they have the time (and you're not a dick). If you're going to ask a question, make sure to include what you're doing and what you've tried so far.

How do I share images / files / text on IRC?

You'll have to host it somewhere, and share a public link. There are scripts and tools that can automate this for you. Ask on the channel.

We have three services hosted by community members:

• thecum.zone - by Volkor
• WaifuPaste - by skg

or use public services like:

• Imgur
• Teknik
• TransferSH
• Uguu
• 0x0
• DPaste

Please note that DCC is disabled on Snoonet.

For code or any arbitrary text really github gist is a good choice.

Note by belzurix: Don't be surprised if nobody wants to open a .tar.xz file of yours. Read more on zip bombs.

History

Is this just #linuxmasterrace with porn?

No. Its #lmr with porn, commies and non-whites, minus the [m]atrix lurkers. (PURGED)
Not affiliated with the subreddit / channel., many regulars show up in both chanels, though. This created border conflicts which later escalated into a full-scale war. #gnulag won the war without losing a single battle.

How is the channel related to #redoxmasterrace ?

We were temporarely allied with them against the vile necromancers who were trying to make an army from the rotting corpse that #linuxmasterrace is. Update: ultimately, the #lmr reanimation attempt resulted in failure. Most of the lines are fake activity by two people who call each other (and the rest of the people as well) "gey". Pls don't tell them that it's written "ghey".

What is #69

It was a channel funded by our government. It's manufactured opposition, a honeypot for dissidents. k33k was responsible for managing it.

Bots & Games

Here's the entire list of gonzobot commands.

n2n

We run a n2n supernode for p2p connections. Instruction on how to install the client (edge node), then connect with

sudo edge -d n2n0 -c gnulag \
    -k <insert secret password here> \
    -l cocaine.farm:7654 \
    -a 10.255.88.<your ip number thingy here>

Minecraft

Minecraft on gnulag.net:25565.

Xonotic

To connect to the xonotic server get xonotic, start it,
open the console with ~ and type connect cocaine.farm:26000.
You will need to reconnect on map change

Footnotes

1. You should spend time in channel regularly. In practice, this means that if you're 24/7 logged in, then at least every two weeks, you have to do some non-fake activity. This is to avoid people making local logs without adding anything to the channel. Compare and contrast [m]atrix lurker policy. ↩
