This is dedicated to all the hackers and the crackers
I see in binary, I speak source code
Step on my toes, I'll post a million jpegs with you in a fag tone
In your digital stance, sitting firewalls ho
Cause I'm riding the net in my dick phone
I was a dick with my 56
Now with my cable, I'm able to get that stable
On the out, my name is Ace and I'm a Leo
On the digital highway, my name is Neo and I'm a hero
In a flash, I'll screw you on burning Dreamcast
You need some ISO? Let me do my hard drive rifle
Our exchange you could never stifle
In a digital hood, you just caught the love bug
I bootlegged your CD, I carved the fight between Un and Jay-Z
Your CG, it's all gonna be free
Whether we take it by force or we take it night free
You feel that rattling in your bones?
When I tell you we just hacked out Jones
And NASDAQ, leave your pride on your back
Cause I am he who loves to hack and crack
This is dedicated to the hackers and the criminals
Serial phones, stores that told us
I told you, brands that said
Hello! Welcome to Binary Revolution Radio, episode 130
Airing today, and this is January 1st
I'm sorry, January 10th, 2006
Yeah, I can't count today, it's late
We're gonna do an old school type of episode here
I'm Black Ratchet, and we have with us today
Dr. Zygman
How's everybody doing?
Good stuff, good stuff
Strom's not here, Strom's getting prepared
To head off on a wild and wooly trip
He's going out on winter break
Gonna head down to Acapulco or something
And I don't know, do something
Lucky, lucky devil
Yeah
Actually, he's probably
I'm not sure if he wants me to drop it on air
So I won't do it
But he's headed someplace colder than
Much colder than Los Angeles
And probably colder than myself right now
It's actually had a bit of a warm spot in Boston
It was almost 50 today
We were in shock
Yeah, it was freezing here in Florida
I mean, it was like 70 degrees
70 degrees, I'd kill for it to be 70 degrees
I saw snow once, you know
It happens every now and then
In not Florida, needless to say
It snowed in Florida before, I believe
You know, it has to have only happened once
It's that
We know, we always have like frost warnings
But we
I don't ever see like
I can't build a snowman ever
Well, I doubt it's going to be ever
In Florida enough to build a snowman
Just one of those things
At least you don't have like New England
Like you wake up and you think
It's going to be a nice day
You throw open the window
And you just see it snowing out
And you're like, what the hell?
Well, the housekeeping
For those of you who actually pay attention
To the archives
Like most of our listeners
Episode 128 or 129
Has not been posted
Strom's lazy
No, Strom is lazy
Strom's had like tons of work to do
And he's been quite busy
So I can't really fault him for that
And normally I'd pick up the slack
But I've moved
And a little more on that
In my personal hacking stories
Therefore there hasn't been
Coming from the school of
The school of Hack TV
School of Hack TV
Yeah, there we go
Oh man, I'm like
God, Stank's going to get
Pissed off at us
You know, or something
He's going to be like
Dude, where are the archives?
I don't think he's ever done that
Well, at least the stuff that I remember
He's usually pretty good about the archives
I'm like
We're going to get him off
Right through it
Yeah
You're going to get him off
Yeah, we're going to get him off
I'm kidding
We're recording
We're recording this Monday night
We're not live, by the way
I don't think we mentioned that
And as you can tell
This is why Dr. Sigmund's on
Because he's not playing receptionist
Screaming the phone calls
And I don't even have to wear a skirt
But you look so sexy in a skirt
Hey
You just
You just make my wet tooth tingle
Well, you know what it is
I just don't have the legs for it anymore
Oh, you gave up shaving?
I don't think I want to keep talking about this
Anyway, so we're taping this Monday night
I am getting all of the episodes
And they will all be up Tuesday
And we would all just like to apologize profusely
And just look on the bright side
You get like
Like, what does it be?
Like four and a half hours
Of pure bin rev radio
I mean, that's like four and a half hours of crack
It's like liquid joy
Audio joy
Audio?
Oh, Oriole joy
I don't know
I don't know how you call it
Oh, yeah
Amazing listening pleasure
Nice
What lucky fans
I know, it's amazing
You should all be thanking us
Anyway, we all apologize profusely
And just
Hopefully it won't happen again
And we're just
It was just
Everything seemed to happen
Combined with the holidays
And myself moving
And Strom having to do
Like massive consulting work
And hard drives failing on him
And all kinds of crazy stuff
So
It's nobody's fault
It's
If anything
I'd like to take up
And take responsibility for it
So
We will get that fixed
As soon as humanly possible
Good stuff
Good stuff indeed
Shall we go into the email?
Do you have any announcements?
And
Housekeeping stuff?
Not really any housekeeping stuff
I think it's time for some email
I think it is
So
Let's go into the email theme here
Oh man, we're just going to use that as email theme from now on
It's going to be the Dr. Zygmunt Singers
Anyway, we got two emails this week from our friend Talz
T-A-L-Z
And we're just going to sort of
We'll do the first one we'll comment on
And then we'll do the second one
The second one sounds really cool
I just want to put that out there
So
Just deal with the first one if you don't like it
Our first email tonight
So
Hey
I'd just like to say how much I love the show
And enjoying listening to it on my PSP
I'm not sure if you have the same
But over here in Scotland
We have bus stops that show trailers of movies
With multiple choice buttons
To see different scenes or trailers
Well, I was in the bus yesterday
So I didn't get a great look at it
But these run Windows XP
I saw it reboot several times
And each time bringing up a desktop
With a minimized command line screen
Presumably trying to watch the program
To play the trailers
Oh, well
I just thought I'd mention it
I wonder if someone opened it or something
Back to studying for my exams
That start next week
Smiley face
I don't even know what the heck
The colon S is
Whatever that is
Wish you all a happy new year
Tal's
So
Wow
Yeah, Tal's
We have nothing like that
In the United States
Well, actually
I've seen
There's a
Georgia
In Atlanta
On Marsa
The trains
Have something that's similar to it
You can't select
What you want to watch
But they have
Like, I think they have
News that plays on one
And they have a couple
Of other channels
And you actually can tune a radio
To listen to the same frequency
Oh, hot damn
Why does the MBTA
Have cool stuff like that?
Because you guys
Are always striking
Or, no
That's New York
Never mind
That's New York
Yeah
Thank God the MBTA
Has a strike
I'd be like
Hosed
What do you think
That command line
Starting up is
If I was guessing
I would say
It's some sort of
Bash
Not bash
Oh, man
Some sort of
Batch script
That's being executed
That's going to set up
You know
Whatever needs to be
Running normally
If I was guessing
That's what my guess
Would be
I can almost guarantee
It's a batch script
Probably what it is
Is it's a
Well, I'm just assuming here
It's probably some type
Of login script
That
I assume it must have
Network access
In some way
With shape or form
I would assume
It's probably just
Something that runs
Right at startup
Whether
It probably would be
Logon.bat
Or login script
And I think that
Executes before
The
Actually, no
I'm not going to
Say that out loud
Because I don't think
It does that
It executes fairly early
And it does it all
Automagically
And it should start up
Relatively good
Of course, it could just
Be something in the
Start menu
Because, you know
Programmers are lazy
Yeah, it could
Yeah
Yeah, MBTA
Has nothing like that
I think for
Actually, it was
Pretty humorous
We have all these
New buses
That have like
These really cool
Computer terminals
In there
And they're all
Like GPS enabled
And all kinds of
Crazy stuff
And I was reading
The Boston Herald
A couple weeks ago
Actually, I was
Reading someone
Over the shoulder
Someone reading
The Boston Herald
A couple weeks ago
And apparently
People are stealing
The GPS units
Oh, wow
Oh, man
I just got to say
Ouch
I didn't really
It brings up
An interesting question
If we turn something
Like public transportation
Into an outlet
For advertising
Can we start
Charging less
For public transportation
Like maybe even
Have free public transportation
In exchange
You know
They play advertisement
Yeah, sure they will
You never know
That's what would happen
If stuff followed logic
But with the whole
Like real world happening
That's not going to happen
Anytime soon
Good point
Yeah
Well, I mean
Look at the
I mean, I'm not sure
What you have down in Florida
But like
Boston
We're just like
Plastered with
Inside the subway
You get advertisements
Outside the buses
You get advertisements
In the subway station
You get advertisements
I mean, if you go down
To South Station
Which is one of our
Two main commuter rail hubs
You go into the main foyer
And it's just
It's this huge
Like three, four story
Just open foyer
And it's just
Hanging advertisements
All following
Just like one advertising
One product
It really is amazing
To look at
I think they do
A really good job with it
In my personal opinion
Looking from the
Advertising standpoint
But you know
People are paying
Huge sums of money
For that
Are they doing it
Like hastily
Or is it just like
Advertising
Postered on the wall
Occasionally
Well, no
They're doing it
Like it's like
Hanging banners
And
They actually
They usually do
A pretty good job with it
I mean
I think the most
The biggest one
That I
The best one that I saw
Was
God, I'll probably
Go all the way back
To like, you know
2001
Maybe even 2000
On this one
Was
It was
They did an Apple theme
And it was
Their whole
Think different campaign
And they just
Did a really good job
I mean
I was looking at it
I was like
Wow, this is
This is impressive
And I think
That's one of the first ones
It might not be
The first one they did it
But that's definitely
One of the first ones
That I saw
So
You know
And
Whenever I'm at somewhere
And
You usually see this
I always see it
At least once a month
That I'll be out somewhere
That has computers
And there'll either be
A blue screen
A desktop
Or something will have
Crashed
That'll show me
The desktop
And it's always nice
Just to take a look
And see what things
Are running
You know
Cashiers
I have to look over
A shoulder
Just to see
What operating systems
Are running
And this is a whole
Other branch of hacking
You know
Totally just enumerating
What's running
And it's
You know
Maybe there's some way
That if you owned
The system
You could dial
Into it
Because you would never
Do it if you were
Not authorized
Good catch
Yeah
But it's just a part
That goes into footprinting
So you know what
If you get that chance
Again
Jump off the bus
I'll send you a check
For a buck fifty
If you take a couple
Of pictures for me
For fare
And you know
Take a look at it
See what you can
Find out about it
Yeah
I don't think I said that
But like yeah
If you
I just think it'd be cool
To get pictures of it
Period
And even if it isn't
Flaking out
I think it'd be fun
To post them in the forums
I mean
I'd be interested
Even if you just
Don't want to post them
In the forum
Just email them to me
You know
Blackratchet
Blackratchet.org
Just you know
I'll like post them somewhere
And I'll provide hosting
For you if you want
I mean
It's just
It seems cool
And I guess
We're kind of like
We should
Here's a topic
For some week
We should just do
An entire thing
On you know
Consoles
And all the crazy
Advertising stuff
The two things
That I was thinking about
When I first read this
Were in Boston
There are
Like taxi
Cabs
Sort of have
I'm not sure
It's sort of like
A headline service
It's not actually
Like full motion video
It's in the back of cabs
And it's for like
The passengers to watch
And we did see it
Booting up one day
And it did run Linux
Really?
Yeah
And the other thing
That actually
I thought of
Was in
When I was
Flying back
From DEF CON
With Red Nerd
We were
We heard about
These things
It was
Oh shoot
I forgot
I'm completely
Forgetting the airline
I won't give them
Free advertising
Anyway
One of the
Cheapy airlines
I think it's actually
Owned by Delta
They had these
Personal video terminals
And you could like
You know
Flip in direct TV
And play online
Video games
And trivia
And it was
A pretty fun system
But we always heard
That they ran Linux
And we were like
Oh shit
So we actually
Decided to really
Like start banging
On them
And like pressing
Them all over
The thing
So you can actually
Make them crash
And while we
Weren't successful
At that
When we did land
We were still
Packing up
And all the systems
Rebooted
And you saw
Tucks up in the corner
And I think it was
Arm based
If I'm not mistaken
These were on the plane
And not in the airport
These were all in the plane
And these were
On the back of
Everyone's seat
So you could watch it
And you can all have
Your own private
Video terminal
That is ridiculous
Oh it was awesome
I got the
Especially considering
It was a red eye flight
From Las Vegas
To Boston non-stop
It definitely provided
Me something to do
And completely
For the fact that
My circulation
Was cut off
To my legs
So yeah
That was the two things
That I thought of
When I saw this
But yeah
Definitely take some
Pictures if you could tell
That would be great
But I think
You could spend
A whole show on this
Maybe it's time
That I segue
Into the next email
Yeah I think
Do you want to
Read this one
Or
Yeah I'll tackle this one
It's a little long
But I can tackle it
Okay I'll go put on
A pot of coffee
You know brush my teeth
And
Gotcha
Well here we go
It says
Firstly I'd like to
Apologize in case
This turns out
To be a little long
But
Dot dot dot
Dot
I'd spent a year
In school
Doing a unit
On true basic
Becoming interested
In it
I began to use it
At home
And within a week
Of working
Long into the night
I made a text
Based game
That ran over
My network
It was based
On the matrix
Movie
And I called it
Matrix
The operator
The interface
Was meant to
Simulate a text
Based operating system
The idea was
You played the operator
And were given
A team of three
Customizable
Teammates
And the idea
Was to hack into
The node
And gain your team
Members items
Or skills
And then his words
Are I had it
So that different
Nodes supported
Different areas
Of the matrix
So if your team
Was in New York
You would have to
Find a node
With another tool
Node scan
To gain a car
In that node
As both the user
Files
User login
Required a username
And password
And the node files
Were stored on one
Box
I was able to make
A multiplayer aspect
To it
So that the players
Could work together
To hack specific
Nodes
To put their teams
Against each other
In battle
I'm sorry
To put their teams
Against each other
In battle
I had also
Started to work
On another part
That would allow
You to log on
To the same nodes
And cooperate
In the battle
Against any agents
Etc
That was on that node
It was going
Quite well
With a few bugs
Here and there
But we had
Some fun playing it
I had a bunch
Of little tools
That would make
It easy to maintain
And ones that
Would create
Node files
Easily and automatically
For me
Of course
I never thought
To back it up
And after my
Windows box
Got hit with
Spyware and Trojans
I ended up losing
Entire contents
Of my hard drive
And its source
Along with it
Just this night
I began to rebuild it
Again
And a thought
Stuck me
How interesting
Slash legal
Would it be
To put the server
On FTP
And allow people
To download the game
And play
I'd expect
Warner Brothers
To sue
If not kill me
And nobody
Really would be
Interested
But if somebody
With a little
More skill
Could produce
Something like this
I think it could
Be quite good
Oh well
I should have
This finished
Over the next few
Days depending
On how my
Exam schedule
Works out
Signed by
TALZ
I don't want
To say it wrong
It's T-A-L-Z
So wherever that
Yeah
Well the same
Person from Scotland
In the previous
Mail message
Emailed us twice
Now I feel
That there is
There is a game
That exists right now
And it's produced by
You know I don't
Remember who produces it
But I know
Warner Brothers
Has a hand in it
As well as the
Wachowski Brothers
I know I said it wrong
But they're the
Gentlemen who wrote
The Matrix
And the name of the game
Wachowski
And the name of the game
Is The Matrix Online
And it is a
Massive multiplayer
Online game
And it's actually
Graphic based
And I only check it out
Because they actually
Have cinematics
Which are
Continuous
Of the story
So if nothing else
Our user friends
Should go and
Check out the site
But I know there is
A game similar to this
As opposed
I mean I'm not really
Sure what the
Legal implications
Of creating a
Text based one are
And I don't think
Either of us can
Really speak too
Intelligently on that
Point
Well I'm sure
That if he calls it
The Matrix
I think someone's
Going to slap him
What the season
Does this order
But at the same time
You know
If you want
Take some
Legal aspects to it
Just like
Flip it over
And just
Call it
Something else
But even if
It's totally
You're not
Trying to make
Any money off
Of it
You're not
Allowed to use
It
Or can you
Call it a
Parody
Or like
A fan script
You can still
Have the same
Storyline
But it's not
Illegal
Because it's
Your original
Work
Well it's
But it's
Probably
It's using
Very
I mean
See this
Is where
We can't
Talk about
Of what
Like
What exactly
Consists
Of what it
Is and who
Does it
And but
At the same
Point just
Take some
I mean you can
Make a parody
Of it but I
Don't think this
Really counts as
A parody
Work
But
Yeah
But just like
You know
Take some
Poetic license
As it were
Just don't
Call it the
Matrix
Call it
Something else
I mean you
Can
I mean
The array
There we go
That's
The massive
Two dimensional
Array
So yeah
I mean
It's just more
Along the lines
Of you can
Make
It sounds like
A really cool
Game
I think it's
Really cool
And I
Awesome
Yeah
Totally
Yeah
Tells
I don't see
You on the
Forums
And I really
Want to know
Why
Because you
Sound really
Cool
So get on
The forum
Shameless plug
But yeah
It sounds really
Cool
Just you know
Fudge it a
Little bit
You can take
Certain concepts
From something
I mean
Just don't call
It an operator
Call it the
Controller
Exactly
Yeah
Political license
It sounds like
Really cool games
And it sounds
Really interesting
And also
I think
This
You hopefully
Will learn
By now
That you
Really need
To back up
Your data
And not only
That
I mean
It's interesting
That you wrote
It entirely
In basic
What's true basic
I've never heard
Of true basic
See I don't
Know
You know
I might kick
Myself for saying
This
But when I
Think of
Any of the
Basics
I think of
My experience
With
Apple 2e
Programming
And
QBasic
You know
Where it's
The 10 print
This
20 input
N dollar sign
That sort of thing
Yeah
I think
Hopefully
We've evolved
Beyond that
By now
Of course
Because they
Also have
Basic
Stamped
Chips
And things
Like that
Yeah
But I mean
It's an interesting
Way to go at it
But he's like
Talking about
Like you know
Doing stuff
Over the network
And making it
Multiplayer
And having it
All communicate
With each other
And with basic
That would be
Kind of annoying
I mean
With visual basic
You can kind of
Do that
But with
You know
QBasic
Or the other basic
You were talking
About the basic
Basic
That
That'd be
Kind of difficult
I mean
People can
Go
Sockets
It's going to happen
Hmm
Because this program
Has sockets as well
Because he said
That his friends
Were playing
Over a network
Yeah
I mean
No
It's all network
Aware
And everything
I don't think
He's
Doing
Doing basic
I don't know
We'll have to
Google true basic
Afterwards
Find out
What the heck
That is
Anyway
Tal's
Yeah
So please
You know
Release it
Just
Change it around
If you want
Just you know
Release it
Or some other name
Or
You know
Or hell
Just toss it
Out there
And wait for
Warren Brothers
To toss a
Cease and
Desist at you
You never know
It might not
Might not happen
And they might want
To buy it
Possibly
You never know
They might like
The concept
They might actually
Completely
Take everything else
And not do anything
But they might
Send you a nice
Big fat royalty
Check every month
Wouldn't that be nice
So yeah
Hell release it
If you have
Nothing to lose
I mean
Cease and
Desist
Basically you say
They say
You know
You're violating
Something right here
Please stop doing it
And you say
Okay
You caught me
Alright
And of course
Everything we're
Saying here
You should totally
Take it with a
Grain of salt
And ask a lawyer
So that you can
Be sure about the
Rules in your
Particular country
Because I do believe
He's not in the
U.S.
Right?
Oh yeah
He is in Scotland
Isn't he?
Yeah you mentioned
That
Yeah
So everything
We're tossing out
Out here
Is probably
Completely wrong
And half backwards
In Scotland
So you never know
So ask a lawyer
Is our professional
Opinion
Yes exactly
Welcome to
BinRef Radio
The lawyers are
Kind of in
Sort of
Our last email
Tonight
Is from Termite
Our loyal fan
According to him
Do you have
Black Ratched
And Strom
Well you can be
Strom for this one
Ziggy
I don't know
If you know
About this yet
Most likely you do
Being Astros junkies
But I found this
A while back
Searching around
For some .net stuff
And he gives
A link
TinyURL.com
Slash
77
Juliet
Whiskey
It's the
Asterisk
.net
Open source
Asterisk
And C sharp
Version 8
I don't think
That's the actual
Title of it
But basically
Just thought
I would toss this
To you
Have fun discussing
It
Loyal fan
Termite
I honestly
I've never heard
Of this
And I checked
It out
And I was
Kind of impressed
I didn't know
Anyone was actually
Attempting to write
Asterisk
And C sharp
I don't really know
Why anyone
Wants to write
Asterisk
And C sharp
But hey
More power
I like C sharp
C sharp
Yummy
Well if it's in .net
Isn't it more portable
Well it's portable
I mean I can run
Asterisk
I guess if it
Follows the
Compact framework
I can
With some
Minor porting
Probably
I can run it
On my pocket PC
But the question is
Why
Well it's the same
Reason that you
Put Linux on your
Atari
Because you can
Man
Yeah I don't know
I'm not following
I'm not one of the
People who does
Stuff just so you
Just because you
Can
I'm very much
Word of
Okay cool
You can do this
Now how does it
Actually benefit me
I mean I guess you
Could run like
You know
Cool stuff
But hey
You know
I think it's
Pretty cool that
Actually someone
Sat down
And actually
You know
Taken
Asterisk
And ported it
Over to C-sharp
Because
You know
C-sharp
Is it officially
Developed
Or is it just
Kind of like
A one time project
That somebody
Kind of threw out
The last update
Was
Well the first
Update was
1.0.0.8
Which was on
November 1st
And then they
Actually did
1.009
On December 18th
So I guess
It's under
Asterisk development
Yeah
You know
We were sort
Of wrong
It's an actual
Port of
Asterisk Java
Which is another
Port I had
No clue existed
Boy
People just
Like to
Really
Just port
Their programs
Over to their
Favorite programming
Language
I don't understand
It but
You know
Hey
Go for it
It's good practice
If nothing else
Yeah
I'm actually
I actually
Want to download
This and
I'll go
Run it through
My super
Leak copy
Of Visual Studio
It's actually
Done under
Visual Studio
2003
Or 2005
According to
The webpage
So
For those of you
Who
I'm curious
If it actually
Runs your express
Edition
Maybe I'll have to
Try that on a
Spare computer
Sounds like a
Plan
Yeah
It's
You know
Thanks to
Pointing that out
That sounds
Pretty interesting
And once
Again
Tinyurl.com
Slash
Seven
J as in
Juliet
W as in
Whiskey
And another
W as in
Whiskey
Nice
Alright
Well that
Wraps up the
Email this
Evening
So
Zigman
You know what
If I call you
Ziggy or not
I just think it's
Fun to call you
Ziggy
Well actually
You know what
As long as I have
A second
The evolution of
Dr. Zigman
Is from Ziggy
The computer on
Quantum Leap
Yeah
You told me this one
But I'm not sure
If anyone else
Knows this
Yeah
A lot of people
Actually
If you ever see
My avatar
That's what that is
That's the handheld
Ziggy unit
And the text says
Quantum Accelerated
Hacking
But
But yeah
Dr. Zigman
Comes from Ziggy
You know
Then it became
Zigman
And doctor
It's just because
I'm actually
A biology major
I'm not going to
Do anything
With computers
Biology major
Yeah
I'd like fries
With that
I shouldn't be
Saying that
I don't know
I always found it
Highly amusing
When I found this out
Because my
My cat
Is named Ziggy
After the same
Computer
Duh
Yeah
Because my
My family
When we got our
Cat back in
1994
We all like
To used to watch
Quantum Leap
Together
Yeah I know
We're weird
So yeah
It's a family show
Yeah
It really isn't
I'm watching it now
I'm like
My god
My parents
Want me to watch this
Oof
Like people
Getting shot
And people
Doing drugs
And wow
Okay
But yeah
I just
Find it humorous
That Dr. Zigman
Has the same
Namesake as my cat
There are a lot
Of jokes I could make
But I don't think
I should
Yeah I could say
A couple things
Here too
But I won't
I'm sure people
Are at home
Right now
So I'll just
Give him a couple
Of seconds
Alright
Good out
Would you like
To go first
Or shall I
I'll go first
For my
Personal hacking
Story going on
It's not so much
Hacking as much
As it's been coding
But I've been
Developing a
New search engine
And what goes
Along with that
Is I've had to
Write the crawler
And all that
Back end is all
In C
The database
I'm using is
Postgres
I mean
You heard the
Recent radio episode
Of course
You were there
But it's a
Very powerful
Of course it was there
Yeah it's a
Very powerful
Database language
And it integrates
Pretty well with C
The library that it
Uses
The libpq library
It's definitely
A beast
You know
It's a little
Complex
A little
Intimidating
In the beginning
And they actually
Have another
Another library
That serves as a
Wrapper
That you can use
Instead of the
Actual libpq functions
I think it's called
It's libpeasy
I think it's called
A lib easy
It's something
With the word
Easy in it
But anyway
So developing
The back end
I had to develop
The crawler
And some php scripting
Which is my first
Foray into php
Very nice language
I like that
It's very
Very easy to develop
And I'm putting
This search engine
Together
So hopefully
In the next week
Or two
I'm going to try
To post a link
And try to take
Advantage of you guys
And everybody out there
To just go ahead
And beta test it
When it's ready
Help me out a little bit
And you know
More or less
Break it
And tell me how you
Did it
So that I can fix it
I think Kyle L
Is listening right now
And just salivating
Over this
He's coming
That's alright
He's coming
We'll take you down
Take you down
To tenetown
Yeah
That's a real
Advantage of
Being in
Of being in the whole
Area that we like
The scene that we like
To hang out in
I guess
Is you know
Let's take advantage
Let's use those skills
Let's put them to a good
Productive use
And you know
Let's break something
And then fix it
Well that's what I've been
Up to
Yeah well
Just to say that
I did this kind of
Rant in the IRC channel
A couple of days ago
But
I mean I'm all for
People you know
Finding bugs
And breaking everything
But like you know
I actually
For those of you
Who don't know
Don't know the
Background story
I wrote something
For the IRC channel
And I thought
It was really cool
And I was very
I was very proud of it
And then everyone
Just said
Wow
Okay let's break this
And it just really
Just rubbed me
The wrong way
I mean I just
Looked at it as
And I said
Here's my opinion
A little thing
Yes you can break things
But say
Hey that's a really
Neat hack
Or just
Some type of
Thing
And I'm just
Sort of randling
On here
So I'll go into
My personal hacking
That was kind of
A personal hacking
Story that happened
The past week
You want to tell
What the bot does
Real quick
Well basically
What I
Hound dog
For those of you
Who are
Hanging out in the
Bin Rev IRC channel
And for those of you
Who don't
We'll tell you
All about IRC
This evening
Because that's the topic
We
Hound dog
One of our computers
It's basically a script
That runs on
One of my computers
That
And he does kind of
Basic things
In the channel
We'll explain what bots
Do in the
In the topic
This evening again
And basically
What he does
Is every time
Someone puts a link
Into the channel
He tiny URLs it
And catalogs it
And if someone
For example
Puts a tiny URL
In the channel
He actually
Finds what it is
In the actual
Long link
And catalogs it
And says it
In the channel
So for example
Totally awesome
Yeah I actually
Find that a lot more
Useful than the other one
But I was basically
Saying hmm
Well I think it'd be
Cool to have something
That kind of catalogs
All the links
That we look at
And this is basically
Step one
Step two
Is the web page
That will be coming
Eventually
And so for example
If you like
Tiny URL
Goatsee
And you're going to
Post it in the channel
And everyone's going to
Click on it
My hound dog
Would say
Oh that's
Goatsee.cx
And your plans
Would be foiled
By my super cool bot
Anyway
My other story
I moved
I'm no longer
Living where I am
Lynn
I'm now living
Down on the south
Shore of Massachusetts
About an hour
And a half away
For those who don't
Know
Too bad
But lots of people
Do know where it is
And I think I probably
Mentioned it before
I'm now living here
And my computers
Are kind of
Sort of set up
However I'm running
Into a problem
With everyone's
Favorite
Internet
Incumbent local
Exchange carrier
Verizon
I called up
On the
I called up
About a week
Before I was
Actually physically
Moving in
And they said
You know
I'd like to get
A phone line
Installed
Because I need
My landline
I'm a phone freak
It's one of those
Things
And you know
The customer
Service rep
She was very nice
She set me all up
I got DSL ordered
I got my plan
All set up
And they said
Okay
You know
When would you
Like this up
And I said
Well I'm moving in
On you know
Such and such a date
And they said
Okay we'll go
Set it up the day before
Is that okay
And I said
That's fantastic
I'll have everything
Ready when I go in
So you know
I'm starting to move in
I actually
I'm starting to pack up
And tear everything down
From my last location
And I get a phone call
From a phone number
I don't recognize
And I pick it up
And it's Verizon
And they say
Well we got your
Line all set up
On our end
But we can't
Access it on your end
And we don't know why
And I say
Oh okay
And they say
Well there's a
Utility clause here
But we can't get
Access to it
We need to talk
To your landlord
And we need to get
That in
And I said
Hmm okay
What could be
Causing this
And he said
Well probably
What happened
Was the previous
Tenant had
Like Comcast
Digital Voice
Or some
Other
Some place
Where he's moved
Off the Verizon
Punchdown block
And moved over
To the
Comcast
Or some other
You know
Selex
Punchdown block
Into the wiring
Closet
Yeah
So I'm like
Oh okay
And I've
Actually run
Into this
Problem before
At one of my
Previous apartments
When I was
At college
And that was
Like you know
A $35
Service fee
For them to
Come in
Take five minutes
To pull the
Pair off
One block
Shove it down
Another with
Their punchdown
Tool
And
You know
Just make
Sure
So my
Inside wiring
Is connected
To the
Outside wiring
That I'm
Running phone
Service on
So
I look at
And I'm
Like okay
Well I'll
Go talk to
The
They said
Well we can't
Do anything
Right now
And I said
Well I
Understand that
And I'll
Go talk to
My
Landboard
To see if
I can't
Get the
Wiring
Closet
So
I call
My
Landboard
Up
I say
Yeah
So the
Previous
Tenant
Had
Comcast
And I
Can't get
Phone
Service
And he
Says
Oh okay
I'll have
That stuff
Open for
Verizon
And I
Said
Well I
Know what
The hell
I'm
Doing
I don't
Want to
Pay like
You know
A $35
$50
Service fee
For them
To come
Out and
Move one
Pair of
Wires
I have
All the
Tools
Yeah I
Can do it
I know
What the
Hell I'm
Doing
I know
Exactly
What's
Wrong
With
The damn
Situation
And I
Have
All the
Tools
To diagnose
It
And they
Said
Well you're
Not a
Telephone
Guy
And I
Was
Like
Doing
Well you're
Not a
Telephone
Guy
We can't
Open the
Closet
For you
You want
To borrow
My hard
Hat
I have
A hard
Hat
I have
A bell
Latik
Hard
Hat
Why don't
You just
Walk in
Wearing the
Hard
Hat
Well I
Did do
That
And I
Did
Well
After
Doing
This
I
Finally
Said
Where the
Hell is
This damn
Utility
Closet
So I
Did a
Little
I'm
A quote
Unquote
Urban
Exploration
Dun
Sorry
Yeah
Bolt
It's
Crazy
I mean
I guess
They really
Don't want
People
Accessing
Their own
Bloody
Telephone
Wiring
Despite
The fact
That
We're
Legally
Allowed
To do
That
Technically
Thanks to
The bell
Breakup
That's
Past the
Line
Of
Demarcation
And
That's
Not
The
Phone
Company
Problem
So
Yes
I'm
Currently
Without
Landline
And
I'm
Currently
Without
DSL
However
My
DSL
Modem
Did
Show
Up
Today
And
Verizon
Should
Be
Stopping
By
The
11th
To
Take
A
Telephone
Pull
Cover
Chain
Link
Fence
And
Put
It
Where
The
Sun
Doesn't
Shine
On
Me
Nice
Yeah
So
I
Love
How
Rules
I
Understand
Where
They're
Coming
From
Because
As
Koresh
Pointed
Out
Today
While
I
Was
Talking
To
Him
And
Complaining
About
This
He
Said
Dude
People
Think
They
Can
Fix
Their
Own
Computers
And
Look
What
The
Happens
Imagine
What
Happens
When
They
They're
Going
To
Take
Their
Punch
Down
Block
And
They're
Going
To
Go
Yoink
And
That's
It
Who
Owns
The
Punch
Down
Block
Is
That
Verizon's
Punch
Down
Block
Or
Is
It
Your
Building
Owners
I
Think
It's
My
Building
To
Be
Honest
I'm
Not
Exactly
Sure
Who
Owns
It
But
Considering
That
I
Believe
Unless
Of
Course
I
Might
Have
Changed
It
But
I
Ran
This
Exact
Situation
And
They
Actually
Didn't
Mention
The
Fact
That
It
Might
Cost
A
Service
Call
So
I
Might
Be
Able
To
Eke
Out
Of
It
But
I
Know
What
The
I'm
Doing
It's
Got
My
Damn
Phone
Line
It's
My
Phone
Line
On
My
Inside
So
It's
Probably
My
Problem
They're
Going to
Charge
Me
Arm
And
Leg
For
It
This
Whole
Thing
Is
Silly
Oh
Well
Yep
Huh
All
Right
So
Yeah
End
Of
Rant
That
All
All right
Yeah
We're
Going to have
An extra
Abbreviated
Episode
This
Week
Anything
It'd
Be
Cool
Just
Have
Like
A
Just
Like
We
Said
Like
The
Episodes
Originally
Like
Supposed
An
Hour
Yeah
We're
Talking
About
iPods
And
Gen 2
So
What's
The
Topic
For
Tonight
Digman
The
Topic
For
Tonight
Is
Internet
Relay
Chat
More
Commonly
Known
As
IRC
And
I
Think
I
Think
You've
Got
A
Handle
You
Want
To
Give
A
Little
Bit
Of
Background
On
What
IRC
Is
Where
It
Comes
From
I
Do
Have
Piles
Of
Notes
Here
We
Got
Gratuitous
Show
Notes
Tonight
We
Were
Zygman
That
He
Mailed
Me
Back
A
Ton
Of
Show
Notes
So
I
Basically
Just
Sort
Of
Quabbered
Them
Together
And
We
Have
Like
Gobs
And
Gobs
Of
Notes
So
Prepare
To
Be
Enlightened
Folks
Oh
Yeah
Basically
An
Internet
Relay
Chat
Is
Basically
What
It
Was
Instant
Messenger
Before
Instant
Messenger
Was
Even
Heard
Of
So
Nice
Forms
For
Instant
Communication
Over
The
Internet
It
It's
Mainly
Designed
For
Like
You
Know
Groups
Group
Talk
Like
Conference
Calls
Type
Things
And
It's
Like
Online
Discussion
And
Forums
Called
Channels
But
It
Also
Kind
Of
Allows
For
One
To
One
Communication
Like
Instant
Messages
And
Such
IRC
Was
Created
By
I'm
Not
Even
Going
To
Attempt
To
Pronounce
His
name
Jarko
Or
Carrion
I
Apologize
To
Get
Old
Jarko
Over
There
His
Nickname
Was
Wizz
Let's
Go
Home
Wizz
It
Was
Created
Late
August
1988
And
Basically
He
Created
It
To
Replace
A
Program
Called
MUT
Which
Stands
For
Multi-User
Talk
It
Was
MUT
Was
On
A
BBS
Called
Olubox
In
Finland
Wizz
Found
Inspiration
In
The
Bitnet
Relay
Chat
Which
Operated
On
The
Old
Bitnet
Network
And
For
Those
Of
You
Who
Don't
Know
What
Bitnet
Is
Look
It
Up
On
Wikipedia
Bitnet
Was
Cool
Bitnet
Was
Old
School
I
Remember
Learning
About
Bitnet
Back
In
88
When
I
Had
No
Basically
Idea
What
The
Hell
A
Computer
Was
For
That
Point
IRC
Was
Cool
Because
It
Really
Grained
Prominence
Back
When
It
Was
Used
In
1991
To
Report
On
The
Soviet
Coup
Attempt
Despite
The
Fact
That
Everything
Had
A
Media
Blackout
IRC
Was
One
Of
The
Few
Forms
That
Was
Actually
Used
For
Live
Information
Also
Back
In
1991
That
Was
When
The
Internet
Really
Started
To
Shine
Through
For
Certain
People
Because
You
Got
A lot
Of
Email
And
They
Really
Didn't
Censor
It
Because
Most
People
Didn't
Know
What
The
Hell
It
Was
At
That
Point
Except
For
The
Clueful
So
A lot
Of
Information
Leaked
Out
That
Way
Also
It
Was
Used
In
A
Similar
Fashion
By
Five
Days
Tops
Meanwhile
The
Iraqi
Occupation
Lasted
Slightly
Longer
Than
That
Months
Back
In
The
Day
IRC
Didn't
Really
Have
Many
Features
And
A lot
Of
Stuff
Like
Channel
Names
That
We
Take
Bands
Stuff
That
Comes
In
Really
Handy
And
We
Take
For
Granted
Today
Didn't
Exist
Channels
Were
Numbered
Basically
From
Channel
4
To
Channel
57
And
The
Channel
Topic
That
We
Had
Today
That
Is
Used
To
Describe
What
The
Channel
Was
Like
You
Didn't
Have
Like
A
Channel
Called
Bin
Rev
No
It
Was
A
Number
4
Hmm
Yeah
It
Was
A
Number
Yeah
You
Had
A
Number
And
Basically
You
Had
Topic
This
Is
The
Bin
Rev
Discussion
Channel
And
Then
You
Have
All
Kinds
Of
People
Coming
In
And
Hopefully
Girls
And
Trying
To
Get
Cyber
Sex
But
Anyway
From
The
Inception
Yeah
From
The
Inception
That's
What IRC
Was
For
I
Bet
That's
What
They
Did
Porn
Wears
And
MP3
Nice
We'll
Get
Into
That
Later
You
Don't
Run
Into
This
Much
Today
This
Is
Actually
Something
I
Picked
Up
While
I
Was
Doing
Research
For
That
The
Only
Hold
Over
Of
All
These
Number
Channels
Is
That
If
You
Ever
Try
To
Join
Something
Called
Channel
Zero
It
Causes
Your
IRC
Program
To
Leave
All
The
Channels
It's
Presently
On
Because
Back
In
The
Day
Channel
Zero
Was
The
Original
Command
To
Leave
All
Your
Channels
I
Didn't
Know
That
I
Have
To
Move
Around
With
That
Next
Time
I'm
On
IRC
And
Have
Lots
Of
Time
To
Kill
You
Didn't
Sell
A
Channel
Zero
Right
I
Wonder
I
Need
To
Figure
That
Out
I
Don't
Know
If
It's
Pound
Zero
Yeah
I
Will
Maybe
It
Could
Just
Be
Join
Zero
We'll
Have
To
Figure
That
Out
We'll
Do
Research
Next
Time
You
Come
On
You'll
Have
To
Tell
Us
The
First
Really
Major
Chain
To
IRC
Was
In
Version
2.5
And
That's
Basically
What
A
Lot
Of
Features
That
We
Are
Used
Came
Into
Being
Like
For
Example
There
Were
Something
Called
Plus
Channels
And
Basically
Plus
Channels
Were
Later
Replaced
With
What
We
Refer
To
Now
As
Pound
Channels
In
Version
2.7
You know
Numeric
Channels
Were
Removed
Entirely
And
Each
Channel
Were
Given
Their
Own
Special
Name
Like
We're
Used
To
Today
Also
In
2.7
The
Infamous
Ban
Command
Was
Implemented
Thank
God
Also
In
2.8
IRC
Also
Started
Implementing
Other
Things
Called
Ampersand
Channels
Which
Only
Exists
On
The
Current
Server
Not
The
Entire
Network
We'll
Cover
That
Later
And
Bang
Channels
Which
Were
Basically
They're
Attempted
Trying
To
Make
Certain
Things
Secure
From
Certain
Text
That
We'll
Discuss
Later
Basically
2.8
Is
The
Baseline
Release
That
All
Current
Implementations
Of
IRC
Or
DERIAF
Like
All
The
IRC
Servers
And
That's
Basically
What we're
Up to
Today
Now
A lot
Of
That
Is
All
Lined
Out
And
More
Or
Given
In
Computer
Language
Or
People
Who
Are
In
The
Computer
World
For
Language
7
Understand
In
The
RFC
Which
Are
Of
The
Request
For
Comments
Yeah
RFC
Are
Basically
Just
Blueprint
For
Network
Protocol
IRC
Is
Covered
By
Them
Well
You
Just
Said
So
What
RFCs
Are
They
Covered
By
Do
You
Have
A
clue
The
Original
RFC
Is
1459
Or
1459
And
I
Have
That
Tiny
URL
You
Can
Check
It
Out
At
Tiny
URL
Dot
Com
Slash
Seven
Q
R
B
F
And
Romeo
Bravo
Fox
There
You
Go
And
What
They
More
Or
Less
Done
Is
Rather
Than
Just
Replacing
It
They
Just
Constantly
Updated
It
With
Other
RFCs
Most
Of
Them
Released
In
2000
Like
2810
Which
Is
The
Architecture
Of
Internet
Relay
Chat
2811
Which
Is
Channel
Management
2812
Which
Is
Client
Protocol
For
Things
Like
CTCP
And
2813
Which
Is
Server
Protocol
And
Then
On
Top
Of
That
They
Have
Other
RFCs
For
Things
Like
The
DCC
Connections
And
Things
Like
That
So
What
Constantly
Been
Happening
Is
They
Just
Been
Updating
And
You
Know
Modernizing
Relay
Chat
So
That
It
Can
Grow
With
The
Community
That
Uses
It
Yeah
Gotta
Love
RFCs
Um
IRC
Is
TCP
I
Assume
Correct
Yes
It
Is
A
Connection
Based
It
Is
Not
UDP
Or
Anything
Else
It
Is
A
Nice
Connection
Based
Server
Chat
Language
So
Basically
I
Can
Whip
Out
My
Net
Cat
Or
My
Telnet
And
Just
Go
Directly
Into
IRC
And
Start
Issuing
Commands
You
Know
I
Be
Honest
I
Don't
Know
If
You
Can
Use
Net
Cat
Because
I
Never
Tried
But
I
Know
You
Can
Tell
Net
Into
It
And
Every
Now
And
Then
When
I'm
Feeling
Really
Leap
I
Like
To
IRC
From
Telnet
You
Actually
IRC
From
Telnet
Every
Now
And
Then
You
Know
Wow
You're
Hardcore
Well
I
Wrote
I
Wrote
Program
That
I
Was
Writing
An
IRC
It
Was
More
An
IRC
Relay
Than
Anything
Else
It
Wasn't
Really
A
Server
Because
It
Was
Going
To
Connect
Out
To
Other
Servers
So
If
You
Look
At
The
RFC
You
Really
Can
Have
A
Full
Understanding
Of
How
IRC
Works
And
You
Can
Develop
Your
Own
Applications
That
Will
Interface
Into
IRC
From
The
RFC
Sounds
Pretty
Spiffy
So
Since
You're
The
Expert
Of
IRCs
How
Is
IRC
Actually
Set
Up
With
The
Network
Topology
And
You're
Talking
About
Relays
And
All
That
Groovy
Stuff
So
Do
You
Actually
Know
How
They
All
Hook
In
Well
The
Way
That
Most
Of
Them
Are
Operating
Right
Now
And
There's
Two
Main
Schools
One
Of
The
Schools
Is
Really
Old
School
And
Then
They
Have
What
Most
Of
Are
Doing
Now
All
Of
Connect
To
Each
Other
And
A
Client
Can
Go
Ahead
Or
A
Regular
User
Can
Connect
To
One
Of
The
Servers
And
Gain
Access
To
That
Network
And
The
Network
Are
Like
Under
Net
F
Net
And
Down
Net
We'll
Connected
To
Other
Servers
Or
Whatever
The
Number
Would
Be
And
You
Would
Have
That
Way
You
Weren't
You
Weren't
Sending
Useless
And
Extra
Data
Along
But
Now
The
Way
It's
More
Or
Less
Working
Is
All
The
Servers
Are
Interconnected
And
It's
Less
Of
A
Linear
Layout
And
That
Also
Just
Goes
With
Growth
You
Know
It's
A
Harder
To
Stay
Organized
And
Have
A
System
Like
That
When
You
Have
Upteen
IRC
servers
Well
I mean
You're
Saying
It's
Less
Of
A
Linear
Layout
But
It's
Still
Linear
In
Some
Fashion
Because
You
Have
Wonderful
Problems
With
Net
Splits
And
Stuff
That
We'll
Talk
About
Later
Certain
People
Suddenly
Falling
Like
Group
Of
People
Falling
Off
The
Internet
Because
Their
Connection
Goes
Down
And
It
Looks
Like
They
All
Just
Like
Left
The
Channel
At
Once
But
In
Reality
Is
Because
Their
Server
Crashed
So
It
Is
Linear
To
A
Point
But
It
Is
More
Mesh
I guess
You
Could
Say
Now
Is
Mesh
Even
A
Word
I
Don't
Even
Mesh
A
Word
I'm
Calling
That
A
Word
It's
Mesh
I
Made
A
Big
Mesh
Anyway
Well
Okay
We're
Talking
About
The
Various
IRC
Network
So
We'll
Just
Major
Networks
They
Call
The
Big
Four
It's
Pretty
Cool
Big
Four
They're
Currently
Four
Networks
Obviously
Basically
They serve
About
100
Thousand
Clients
Per
Day
Which
Is
Pretty
Impressive
In
My
Book
The
Four
Networks
Are
Fnet
Is
It
Fnet
Or
EFnet
I
Always
Call it
Fnet
I
Always
Call it
Fnet
Too
I
I'm
Not
Exactly
Sure
IRC
Net
Quake
Net
And
Undernet
Yeah
Undernet
I like
Undernet
Fnet
Is
Fnet
I guess
You could
Say
Is
One
Of
The
First
Major
Networks
And
Originally
Fnet
EF
Stands
For
Eris
Free
Back
In
The
Day
It
Was
Basically
There
Was
A
Server
Called
Eris
Or
It's
Like
Eris
Dot
Berkley
Dot
Edu
And
It
Was
Really
Causing
A
Lot
Of
Trouble
With
Like
The
Original
Kind
Of
Network
That
Existed
And
Basically
People
Who
Were
Sick
And
Tired
Of
It
Decided
To
Create
Fnet
And
So
Was
Eris
Free
And
When
They
All
Left
Basically
The
Original
Net
Decided
To
Die
I
Think
The
Original
Net
Was
Called
A
Net
I'm
Not
Even
Completely
Sure
About
That
I
Should
Looked
Into
That
Fnet
Is
Cool
It's
Very
Old
School
It's
Been
Around
For
Quite
A
While
But
Sadly
In
Recent
years
It's
Doodle
There's
Been
A
Lot
Of
Denial
Of
Service
Attacks
A
Lot
And
The
Network
Has
I
Wouldn't
Say
Started
To
Crumble
But
It's
Definitely
Not
What
It
Once
Was
I
Think
Now
Fnet
Is
The
AOL
Chat
Room
Of
IRC
I
Didn't
Go
That
Far
I
Mean
There's
Still
People
Over
There
That
Know
What
The
Hell
They're
Doing
It's
Just
The
Skitties
Are
There
And
It's
Interesting
It's
A
Shadow
Of
It's
Former
Self
People
Have
Moved
One
Of
The
Reasons
It's
Very
Old
School
And
People
Have
Moved
On
To
Other
Networks
Is
That
There's
A
Distinct
Act
Of
Two
Services
It's
Called
NICSERV
And
ChansERV
And
We'll
Cover
What
Exactly
They
Do
Later
They
Basically
Do
A
Lot
Of
Maintenance
Functions
That
When
You
Go
Into
F
Make
Sure
You
Have
Your
Shotgun
And
Your
Can
Of
Petrol
So
You'll
Be
All
Said
It's
Also
The
Least
Unified
Network
On
IRC
It
Has
A
Very
Large
Variations
On
Server
Rules
And
Policies
Depending
On
Which
Server
You
Actually
Connect
To
It
Has
No
Central
Administration
Authority
Whatsoever
Which
A lot
Of
Other
Networks
Do
Essentially
It's
Basically
It's
So
Used
Yeah
I
Want
To
Set
Up
This
New
Channel
On
F
Net
I've
Never
Heard
Them
Say
That
Related
To
F
Net
There's
IRC
Net
IRC
Net
Is
One
Of
The
Largest
Networks
In
The
World
It
Currently
Has
Over
More
Than
100
Thousand
Users
By
Itself
IRC
Net
Was
Actually
Formed
As
A
European
Fork
Of
F
Net
After
A
Policy
Disagreement
Back
In
I
Think
It
Was
I
Don't
Know
Summer
1996
July
Okay
I
Think
They
Had
A
Disagreement
On
How
Much
Server
Operator
Power
People
Should
Have
And
What
Exactly
Should
Do
And
Whether
Or
Not
Server
Operators
Should
Be
Able
Interfere
Channels
So
Basically
They
Had
A
Giant
Disagreement
And
All
The
European
People
Were
Like
Fine
We
Going
To
Take
Our
Servers
And
Play
Over
Here
And
Thus
IRC
Net
Was
Born
Actually
One
Of
The
Funny
Things
That
I
Found
Researching
That
A
Rumor
Is
That
IRC
Net
Got
Its
Official
Start
When
A
Major
US
F
Net
Hub
Decided
To
Whether
Or
Not
Accidentally
Or
On
Purpose
Decided
To
Delink
Some
Of
The
European
Service
Without
Warning
And
All
The
European
Admins
Got
Really
Pissed
Off
And
Declared
Their
Independence
So
I
Kind
Of
Find
About
Humor
I
Think
I
Just
Going
To
Interrupt
You
For
A
Second
And
To
Say
What
It
Means
To
D-Link
It
Means
That
The
People
Can
Still
Connect
To
That
Server
And
Still
Talk
With
People
On
That
Server
But
They
Don't
Have
Access
To
The
IRC
Network
That
Undernet
Is
Undernet
It
Is
Awesome
I
Love
Undernet
It
Was
Established
In October
1992
As an
Experimental
Network
They
Wanted
To
Run
An
Experimental
Version
Of
The
Fnet
IRC
2.7
Server
Software
This
Before
2.8
Basically
They
Created
It
To
Attempt
To
Make
It
Less
Bandwidth
Intense
And
Generally
Less
Chaotic
Net
Splits
And
Takeovers
Were
Really
Starting
To
Become
A
Problem
Over
In
Fnet
Basically
Kind
Of
Like
I
Don't
Know
Ever
Since
Undernet
Broke
Away
From
Fnet
It
Was
Like
During
The
Mid
1990s
Undernet
Really
Decided
To
Develop
A
Reputation
Which
Was
Like
It
Was
Really
Undeserved
Because
I
Used
To
Be
On
Undernet
Back
In
1995
1996
I
Was
Always
On
Undernet
Yeah
I
Don't
Know
Undernet
Rock
It
Was
Like
Low
.mas
.us
.undernet
.org
That's
The one
It
Is
Basically
Seriously
Everyone
Started
To
Say
Oh
Undernet
Oh
It's
Bad
It's
The
Heaven
They
Called
It
Haven
For
Online
Criminals
Pedophiles
And
Child
Molesters
And
I
Was
Like
Whoa
Okay
Wow
And
I
Think
Part
Of
The
Reason
Was
Because
It
Was
Under
Oh
It's
Underground
It's
Leet
It's
Cool
All
The
People
Are
Over
That's
My
Personal
Opinion
Of
It
I
Think
The
Original
The
Original
Well
Not
That
I
Would
Ever
Download
Anything
That
I
Hadn't
Purchased
But
I
Think
The
Original
Like
The
First
Time
I
Had
Ever
Seen
A
Where's
Chat
Room
Was
On
Undernet
So
I
Don't
Want
To
Feed
The
Fire
On
That
One
But
I
Don't
Know
How
Undeserved
That
Name
Is
It
Definitely
Was
More
Or
Be It
A
Hacker
Or
Simply
Just
A
Coder
Or
Somebody
Who's
Going
To
Be
Malicious
I
Really
Think
A
Lot
Of
People
Who
Were
Computer
Savvy
Were
Leaving
Things
Like
Fnet
And
Coming
To
Undernet
Just
Because
It
Was
Less
Known
At
The
Time
And
They
Had
That
They
Had
A
Little
Bit
More
Of
That
Freedom
Well
Also
It
Was
One
Of
Geez
You're
Not
Going
To
Bad
Math
For
Unternet
Fleet
Use
Them
Don't
Use
Them
For
Wears
Or
Pedophiles
Or
For
Child
Molester
Yeah
But
Anyway
Yeah
QuakeNet
Is
Actually
I
Didn't
Actually
Know
This
Until
I
Started
Researching
And
I
Remember
Hearing
About
It
But
I
Just
Missed
It
Out
Of
Hand
As
Rumors
QuakeNet
Has
Over
200,000
Users
Every
Day
Making
It
The
According
To
Them
The
Largest
IRC
Network
In
The
World
Has
Over
180,000
Different
Channels
Wow
Is
Part
Of
The
Big
Four
Ever
Since
Down
That
Sort
Of
Fell
Off
And
We'll
Just
Talk
About
That
Later
It
Had
A
Peak
On
8th
February
2005
The
Network
Recorded
Over
2400
I'm
Sorry
I'm
Saying
That
Wrong
243
394
Simultaneous
Connections
Which
Is
Just
Insane
Was
Founded
In 1997
As
An
IRC
Network
For
Quake
World
Players
Which
For
Those
Who
Played
Quake
World
You
Know
What
It
Is
But
If
Not
It
Was
Basically
Quake
One
With
Better
Network
Stuff
It
Has
Seemed
Huge
Growth
Over
The
Years
And
Attracted
A
Lot
Of
Gamers
Came
Popular
Initially
Because
Of
Its
Network
Stability
And
The
Service
Spots
That
It
Had
Quake
Net
Has
Tons
Of
Crazy
Different
Services
You
Can
Use
Those
Is
The
Big
Four
The
Other
Two
We're
Going
To
Cover
Dal
Net
Dal
Net
Was
Created
Back
In
Mid
90's
Much
Like
Other
Ones
It
Was
Basically
A
Bunch
Of
People
On
Fnet
In
The
Pound
Star
Trek
Discussion
Room
Just
Tell
Their
Bunch
Of
Furry
Tooth
Geeks
Over
There
Decided
To
Set
Up
Their
IRC
Server
Hey
I'm
A
Trekkie
I
Know
How
It
Is
But
Some
People
Are
Just
Like
That
Hey
I'm
Just
Tell
Them
Like
It
Is
Basically
They
Wanted
To
Set
Up
Their
Own
IRC
Service
So
This
Guy
Named
Dal
I'm
Not
Even
Trying
To
Pronounce
Dal
That
Was
His
Handle
And
He
Decided
To
Create
His
Own
IRC
Server
So
Everyone
Started
Calling
It
Dal
Net
And
They
Eventually
Decided
To
Just
Call
It
Dal
Net
For
The
Hell
Of
Up
Until
About
2002
2003
When
People
Really
Started
Like
It
Was
The
Subject
Of
Massive
Denial
Of
Service
Attacks
Like
Insane
You
Couldn't
Get
Connect
To
It
At
All
And
Also
Right
Around
That
Time
One
Of
Their
Major
Servers
Tsunami.
Dal
Net
Decided
To
Conk
Out
Everyone
Says
It
Wasn't
Due
To
The
Denial
Of
Service
But
For
Personal
reasons
I
Don't
Know
I
Don't
Care
It
Wasn't
My
Problem
But
Anyway
That
That's
Really
When
They
Started
Losing
Their
Top
Four
Status
Because
Back
Before
You
Know
Back
Up
Until
2002
It
Was
Fnet
Under
Net
Dal
Net
And
Whatever
That
Fourth
One
Was
What I
Said
Because
I
Can't
Remember
Right
Now
I
Received
Thank
You
Thanks
For
Billing
Me
Out
There
Zygman
Geez
I
Tried
Yeah
The
Other
Network
We're
Going
To
Cover
Is
The
Home
Of
Pound
The
Bin
Reb
Discussion
Channel
And
It
Has
Great
Services
Yes
Which
We'll
Get
Into
Later
Yeah
Freenode
Is
The
Sixth
Network
We're
Going
To
Talk
About
That's
Actually
The
Home
Of
Pound
If
Anomicon
Freenode
Is
Basically
It
Was
Formerly
Known
As
The
Open
Project
Network
It
Was
A
Very
Cool
IRC
Network
Which
Basically
Tried
To
Gear
It
Toward
The
Free
Software
Movement
It's
Really
Popular
With
Free
And
Open
Source
Use
Software
Users
And
Programmers
They
Say
They're
The
Official
Network
Of
Major
Free
Software
Project
Such
As
Debian
New
Linux
And
The
Gnu
Project
Freenode
Reports
Over
27,000
Simultaneous
Connections
As a
Weekly
Peak
But
A
Lot
Of
People
You'll
Find
Over
There
Are
Just
A
Lot
Of
Free
Open
Search
Projects
Are
On
Freenode
And
Freenode
Is
Groovy
People
I
Had
Some
Slight
Problems
With
Them
Earlier
But
They've
Really
Toned
Down
A
Lot
Of
Their
Stuff
That
I've
Had
Trouble
With
Earlier
Also
A lot
Of
The
Programming
And
The
Linux
Help
Channels
Things
Like
That
Are
On
Freenode
As
Well
So
If
Any
Of
Our
Listeners
Are
Having
A
Problem
With
Their
Slack
Or
Their
Gen
Documentation
Or
Their
Installs
They
Can
Definitely
Freenode
Would
Be
The
Place
To
Check
Out
Just
Make
Sure
That
Before
You
Ask
A
Question
That
You
Researched
It
Because
They've
Definitely
Got
Some
Trigger
Fingers
On
Their
Attitudes
So
Just
Be
Careful
Well
That's
IRC
You're
Going
To
Approach
IRC
Like
You
Would
Approach
With
Any
Forum
Sit
Back
Read
The
Mail
And
Don't
Be
A
No
So
I've
Been
Chit
Chatting
About
IRC
Networks
Do
You
Actually
Want
To
Define
All
These
Terms
We've
Been
Talking
About
Like
Services
And
Bots
And
Crazy
Stuff
Like
That
I'll
Start
Out
With
Two
Of
My
Favorites
And
These
Are
Done
By
Server
Ops
Or
IRC
Ops
I
Should
Say
And
People
Who
Run
The
Servers
Yeah
Basically
Yeah
It's
Just
The
Individuals
Who
Run
The
Servers
They
Become
Operators
Of
The
Entire
Server
And
They
Have
The
Power
To
Issue
First
Off
What's
Called
A
K-Line
Which
Stands
For
A
Kill
Line
And
That's
A
KICK
Or
Ban
From
An
IRC
Server
It's
Not
The
Network
It's
Just
An
Individual
Server
So
If
You
Were
Connected
To
Rumble
Florida
US
Dow
Net
You
Could
Be
K-Line
From
Rumble
But
Still
Connect
To
The
Dial
That
Network
By
Connecting
To
Their
Broadway
Or
Their
Australia
Server
So
That's
The
K-Line
And
Then
Moving
On
To
A
Little
Bit
More
Painful
From
A
K-Line
Is
A
G-Line
Which
Is
Short
For
A
Global
Kill
Line
Which
Will
Kill
You
From
The
Network
Meaning
That
You
Cannot
Connect
To
The
IRC
Network
At
All
No
Server
Will
Accept
You
Okay
Then
We
Have
Like
I
Was
Saying
How
Exactly
Would
You
Get
K-Lined
Or
G-Lined
I
Assume
That
These
Are
Kind
Of
Serious
Matters
If
You
Are
Going
To
Get
The
Network
IRC
Ops
Are
Notoriously
Passive
Is
The
Wrong
Word
But
They
Will
Not
Really
Interfere
With
Channel
Business
But
If
There
Is
A
Spam
Bot
Or
Something
Like
That
Things
That
Are
A
Real
Disruption
Of
The
Actual
IRC
Experience
And
IRC
Service
Putting
Unnecessary
System
Load
That
Is
When
An
IRC
Ops
Will
Come
In
And
Will
Issue
A
K-Line
Or
If
Necessary
A
G-Line
To
The
Offending
Users
People
Don't
Just
Get
K-Lines
You
Have
To
Really
Earn
It
Moving
On
From
There
We
Have
What
We
Were
Just
Talking
About
The
IRC
Ops
And
They
Are
The
People
Who
Watch
Over
The
Entire
Network
The
People
Who
Are
Right
Below
Them
Are
Going
To
Be
The
Channel
Operators
And
What
A
Channel
Op
Does
Is
They
Are
Responsible
For
A
Specific
Channel
And
They
Have
Certain
Administrative
Powers
On
That
Channel
To
Help
Facilitate
Discussions
Moving
From
Them
We
Also
Have
A
Term
Which
Is
Known
As
Voice
Is
A
Mode
That
We'll
Get
Into
Later
Plus
V
And
It
Gives
The
User
The
Ability
To
Talk
In
A
Channel
That
Moderated
And
We'll
Talk
About
Moderated
In
A
Little
Bit
And
From
There
We
Have
Just
A
Few
Really
Basic
Commands
Join
Of
Course
We'll
Join
An
IRC
Channel
It
Would
Be
Join
And
Then
The
Name
Of
Channel
It
Also
Depends
On
Your
Client
Part
We'll
Leave
A
Channel
And
Then
We
Have
Message
Or
MSG
Which
Is
A
Private
Message
Which
Can
Either
Be
Sent
To
A
Channel
Or
To
A
Specific
User
And
I
Guess
As
Long
As
We're
Going
There
We
Can
Talk
About
User
Modes
Real
Quick
And
A
User
Mode
Is
Something
That
Is
Set
Specifically
For
You
As
A
User
Usually
You
Set
Them
When
You
Log
On
But
You
Can
Set
Them
Just
About
Anything
And
They
Tell
Other
Users
Who
Can
Look
Up
Information
About
You
And
They
Tell
The
Servers
Themselves
And
The
IRC
Operators
What
Kind
Of
User
You
Are
The
First
One
More
Mentioning
Is
You
Could
Set
The
User
Mode
Plus
O
And
Only
An
IRC
Operator
Can
Do
That
And
That
Is
Mostly
Done
So
That
Nobody
Can
Impersonate
An
IRC
Operator
So
You
Can
Actually
Look
Up
What
Is
Anyone
Talk
About
Who
Is
Real
Quick
Yeah
Sure
Go ahead
Do you
Want to
Talk
About
Or
Shall
I
Well
Why don't
You
Mention
It
Real
Quick
Well
Who
Is
You
Get
A little
Information
On
The
Users
You
See
Where
They're
Coming
from
You
See
Their
Identity
Is
What
Server
They're
Using
How
Long
They've
Been
Locked
In
If
They've
Been
Idle
For
How
Long
It's
Just
Like
Vital
Statistics
On
A
Certain
User
Of
The
Network
It's
Pretty
Handy
And
Usually
If
Basically
It's
A
Way
To
Determine
Who's
Who
Exactly
And
This
Plus
O
Would
Show
Up
For
An
IRC
Operator
So
That
People
Cannot
Impersonate
An
IRC
Operator
Yeah
It shows you
Which
Channels
You're
On
I'll
Cut
The
Next
Mode
Being
Plus
I
And
I
Stands
For
Invisible
Now
This
Doesn't
Actually
Make
You
Invisible
But
What
It
Does
Is
It
Will
Exclude
Your
Name
From
Being
Listed
If
Anybody
Just
Does
A
Who
Which
Will
Just
List
All
The
Users
On
IRC
Or
If
People
Just
Try
To
Check
The
Names
On
A
Channel
Without
Actually
Joining
The
Channel
It
Will
Not
List
Your
Nick
But
It's
Also
There
There are
A lot
Of
Exceptions
To
This
Rule
If
The
User
Is
On
The
Channel
And
Request
The
Channel
Names
It
Will
List
Your
Name
Because
You're
Already
There
You
Can
Already
See
You
And
It's
Not
Like
You
Don't
Appear
In
The
Who's
In
The
Channel
List
And
Things
Like
That
It's
Just
So
That
A lot
Of
People
Set
It
So
That
They
Don't
Appear
For
Spam
Bots
Who
Are
Just
Trying
To
Message
Everybody
Every
Nick
That
They
Can
Handle
Personally
I
Always
Set
Mode
Plus
I
And
Most
Clients
Will
Default
To
Setting
Plus
I
Hardly
See
A
Client
That
Doesn't
Do
That
I
Think
You
Have
To
Opt
Out
Of
Them
Then
You
Have
Plus
S
Which
Is
For
Server
Notices
And
That's
Information
On
Net
Splits
And
It's
Server
Technical
Information
It's
Things
That
Sometimes
It's
Interesting
To
Look
At
But
For
The
Most
Part
It's
Really
For
The
IRC
Ops
To
Help
Them
Out
And
It's
Just
A
Little
Bit
More
Verbose
Of
What's
Going
On
Behind
The
Scenes
Of
IRC
You
Can
Set
That
And
By
All
Means
Sometimes
You
Should
Check
It
And
Just
To
See
What
Scrolls
By
Maybe
It'd
Be
Interesting
To
See
What's
Going
On
What
Wallups
Or
Wall
Ops
And
What
That
Does
Is
You
Will
Be
Able
To
Any
Message
That's
Sent
To
The
IRC
Operators
Usually
Because
You
Can
Page
An
IRC
Operator
More
Or
Less
I've
Actually
Never
Done
It
I
Didn't
Know
You
Could
Until
Recently
So
I
Was
Researching
For
This
Show
But
If
You
Have
Your
Wall
On
You
Will
Get
Those
Pages
As
Well
And
I
Like
To
And
The
Final
User
Mode
That
We'll
Talk
About
Is
Plus
B
And
That
Identifies
The
User
As
A
Bot
And
That's
Important
Because
A lot
Of
Networks
Will
Require
That
You
Identify
All
Bots
And
They'll
Limit
The
Number
Of
Bots
You
Can
Have
Some
Servers
And
Some
Networks
Will
Totally
Ban
Bots
And
That's
Why
You
Have
To
Set
That
Mode
Plus
It
Just
Really
Means
That
Hey
Don't
Really
Don't
Bother
Me
Too
Much
And
Then
Just
To
Move
On
From
There
We'll
Talk
About
Channel
Modes
I'll
Try
To
Go
Through
That
A
Little
Bit
More
Quickly
First
Channel
Mode
Would
Be
Plus
B
And
A
Host
Mask
And
That
Ban
Anything
That
Matches
That
Host
Mask
From
Joining
A
Channel
Then
You
Have
A
Ban
Exemption
Which
Is
B
E
Or
Sometimes
Just
E
And
What
That
Does
And
That
Actually
A
Ban
Exemption
Will
Supersede
Any
Ban
Which
I
Learned
The
Hard
Way
But
We're
Not
Going
To
Get
Into
That
But
That
If
You
Wanted
To
Ban
Everybody
Who
Uses
AOL
But
You
Have
One
Friend
Who
Uses
AOL
So
You
Going
To
Set
A
Ban
Exemption
For
Their
NIC
Or
Something
Okay
Moving
Down
We
Have
Plus
M
Which
Is
Moderated
As
We
Were
Speaking
Earlier
What
A
Moderated
Channel
Is
One
In
Which
Only
Channel
Operators
And
Those
Who
Have
Voice
Can
Talk
And
Sometimes
Channels
Are
Like
That
Right
From
The
Get
Go
You
Have
To
Already
Know
Or
You
Have
To
Earn
A
Voice
Somehow
But
More
Often
Than
Not
You
Usually
Only
Use
Moderated
If
A
Channel
Is
A
Channel
Out
Of
Control
And
An
IRC
I'm
Sorry
A
Channel
Operator
Will
Step
In
And
Make
The
Channel
Plus
M
Give
Everybody
A
Second
To
Calm
Down
And
Move
On
With
Their
Lives
But
That
A
Couple
More
Real
Quick
Plus
K
And
Then
An
Actual
Password
And
It
Creates
A
Channel
Password
A
Channel
Key
You
Can't
Join
The
Channel
Without
The
Key
Then
You
Have
Plus
L
And
Then
A
Number
And
It
Limits
The
Total
Number
Of
People
That
Are
In
The
IRC
Channel
Plus
N
Is
No
Outside
Messages
Meaning
That
You
Cannot
Send
A
Slash
Message
Or
A
Message
To
A
Channel
Unless
You
Are
A
Member
Of
The
Channel
You
Have
To
Have
Joined
It
You
Can't
Just
Send
And
Then
We
Have
Plus
T
Which
Is
The
Final
One
We'll
Cover
And
That
Means
That
Only
Ops
Can
Set
The
Topic
And
Yeah
We're
Very
Groovy
Power
To
People
Like
That
Do
Want
To
Get
That
Link
Out
You
Know
The
Fancy
Slang
Why
Don't
I
Let
You
Do
It
Okay
Well
Zygman
Has
In
His
Notes
Here
Many
More
Check
Out
TinyURL.com
Slash
Douka3
Uniform
Fox
Mike
For
A
Good
List
Yeah
There's
A
Ton
Of
Modes
Yeah
Since
We're
Talking
About
Bots
And
Everything
And
They
Said
Because
They
Actually
Use
Up
Network
Resources
And
Basically
Bots
Got
A
Bad
Name
Because
People
Use
Them
For
Spamming
Purposes
And
Annoying
Stuff
Like
That
But
There
Are
Good
Bots
Like
Nick
Enchancer
Basically
Nick
Serve
Only
Let's
You
Have
A
Certain
Person
Have
A
Certain
Nick
Like
You
Have
To
Identify
Yourself
To
It
And
It
Interface
Directly
With
The
IRC
Server
And
It
Knows
Whether
Or
Your
Nick
To
Something
Else
That
It
Exlikes
And
Those
Actually
They
Have
That
Special
Name
That
Beyond
Bot
They
Are
Actually
Called
Services
Yeah
That's
Right
Another
Common
One
Is
Memo
Serve
You'll
See
That
On
A
Couple
Of
Network
You
Don't
See
It
As
Now
But
Memo
Serve
You
Can
Just
Leave
A
Message
For
Another
User
But
Those
Are
The
Service
Chemo
Serve
Chan
Serve
Basically
Is
A
Service
That
Helps
You
Administrate
Your
Channel
Like
If
Someone
God forbid
Actually
Takes
Over
The
Channel
You
Can
Actually
Say
I
Created
This
Channel
Here's
My
Identification
Code
Fix
It
There's
Hound
Dog
Which
I've
Coded
Up
Myself
And
It's
Just
A
Deck
Of
Cards
Right
Now
I
Really
Need
To
Code
It
Like
I
Said
It
Does
That
Whole
Tiny
URL
Thing
It
Provides
Some
Entertainment
Like
It
Constantly
Does
Random
Things
In
The
Channel
If
You
Talk
To
It
But
The
Original
Use
Of
Hound
Dog
Is
We
Were
Under
Attack
By
Spammers
And
Basically
Hound
Dog
Just
And
Banned
Them
Immediately
And
Took
Them
On
Out
And
Kicked
Them
Off
The
Channel
It
It's
Done
A
Good
Job
It
Does
It
Does
A
Relatively
Good
Job
Sometimes
There's
But
Hound
Is
A
Great
And
You
Know
Hound
Dog
Has
An
Amazing
Feature
That
I
Very
Rarely
See
You
Talk
About
This
And
I
Am
To
Make
You
Talk
About
It
Now
But
Hound
Dog
Will
Actually
Notice
If
The
Nick
Is
Just
A
Generated
Nick
You
Know
If
It's
Just
Like
JK
34
M
It
Will
Notice
That
It
Has
That
Right
Well
Basically
What
Do
We
Do
We
Black
Listed
A
Lot
Of
Channels
Like
You
Know
For
Example
We
Don't
Really
See
Many
People
From
Pound
Gay
Indonesia
On
Ben
Rose
You
Know
If
Someone
Ever
Does
That
We
Make
An
Exemption
Yeah
A
Ban
Exemption
Exactly
If
Someone
Like
Joins
The
Channel
On
Gay
Indonesia
Hound Dog
Will
See
That
And
Say
Okay
This
Is
Probably
A
Bot
I
Want
To
Kick
Him
And
If
It
Automatically
Rejoins
It
Bans
Him
Immediately
So
It
Doesn't
Actually
Pick
Up
On
The
Nicks
Because
They
Actually
Piggy
Back
A
Lot
Of
The
Famers
Are
Starting
To
Infect
People
With
Viruses
And
Piggy
Back
Cause
It's
Just
It's
Really
It's
Interesting
The
Way
They
Do
It
I
Can
Remember
There
Was
A
Time
Where
We
Were
Having
People
Doing
Join
Floods
And
You
Had
It
Set
So
That
So
That
Hound Dog
Would
Notice
The
IPs
That
Were
Doing
The
Join
Floods
And
Would
Ban
The
IPs
Oh
Just
Pick
Out
Certain
Audit
Generator
Mix
Like
There
Were
Certain
Ones
That
Were
Using
In
The
Followed
Certain
Rules
Or
He
Set
It
Up
To
Follow
Certain
Rules
So
Basically
It
Was
A
Cat
And
Mouse
Game
Where
He
Would
Adjust
His
Rule
Set
Then
I
Would
Adjust
Hound Dog
To
Pick
It
Up
And
It
Would
Notice
It
And
There
Was
Some
Flight
Collateral
Image
From
That
But
We
Won't
Talk
About
That
Sorry
Blender
Bots
And
Then
There
Bin
Rev
Statch
What
Do
Want
To
Talk
About
That
Quickly
Bin
Rev
Stats
Is
My
Bot
I
Run
It
Off
Of
My
400
Megahertz
Box
And
The
Bin
Rev
Stats
Box
What
It
Does
Is
It
Keeps
A
It
Keeps
A
Record
Of
What's
Going
On
Who
Joins
Who
Leads
How
Many
Lines
People
Have
Said
How
Many
Smiley
Faces
Things
Like
That
You
Know
Things
That
Are
Interesting
To
Keep
Stats
About
And
It
Actually
Once
Out
The
Last
Time
A
Lot
Of
People
Were
There
You
Can
See
What
Hours
Have
The
Most
Usage
You
Can
Get
A
Random
Quote
From
What's
Going
On
In
The
Channel
And
That
Bot
Runs
A
Version
Of
Software
By
The
Name
Of
I
Don't
Know
If
It's
Supposed
To
Be
Said
Or
Spelled
But
It's
P-I-S-G
And
You
Know
I
Hacked
It
Up
A
Little
Bit
To
Kind
Of
Get
It
To
Do
What
I
Wanted
But
For
The
Most
Part
You
Know
P-I-S-G
Is
The
People
Who
Took
I
Have
To
Give
Credit
On
That
And
I
Wish
I
Who
Wrote
It
So
Please
Forgive
Me
If
You're
Listening
To
This
But
I'm
Trying
To
Give
You
Some
Credit
But
If
You
Go to
IRC
Bin
Rev.com
And
Go
All
The
Way
Down
I
Believe
The
Author's
Name
Is
Right
There
I
Know
A
Link
To
The
Web
Pages
You
Can
Find
Out
There
Do
You
Want
Talk
About
Clients
Next
You
Want
To
Talk
About
Bad
Bots
Real
Quick
I
Guess
We
Can
Talk
About
Bad
Bots
I
Don't
Know
We'll
Talk
About
Bad
Bots
And
Maybe
We'll
Talk
About
IRC
Hacking
On
A
Later
episode
But
The
Two
Bad
Bots
Are
Clones
And
What
Exactly
Do
Clones
It's
Just
Because
There's
All
Kinds
Of
Different
Caveats
You
Can
Use
With
Them
Well
I
Mean
You
Can't
You
Can't
Necessarily
Say
That
A
Clone
Is
A
Bad
Bot
Because
Technically
A
Clone
Is
Really
Just
Another
Connection
From
The
Same
Computer
The
Same
Server
The
Same
Location
So
A
Clone
Is
Just
Another
Section
So
What
A
Lot
Of
People
Will
Do
Is
They'll
All Up
Onto
The
Same
IRC
Network
And
Then
They'll
Have
What's
Called
A
Bot
Net
And
Then
That
Network
Of
Bots
Has
A
Lot
More
Bandwidth
Than
The
Average
User
And
What
People
Can
Use
These
Bot
Nets
For
I
Mean
There's
A
Whole
Slew
Of
Things
They
Can
Go
And
They
Can
Flood
People
Offline
Just
With
Ping
Requests
If
You
Send
Enough
Of
Them
If
You
Have
A
Hundred
Of
Your
Bots
That
You
Control
Sending
A
Ping
Reply
To
One
Person
One
User
Really
Can't
Handle
That
So
You
Run
Into
A
Problem
Where
It's
Not
An
Active
Connection
It's
Just
A
Bot
Who
Does
Your
Bidding
There
Are
Other
Things
That
Bots
Do
There
Spam
They
Have
All
Sorts
Of
Bots
That
Do
Terrible
Things
Bots
Are
Like
Guns
They
Can
Be
Used
For
Good
Or
Evil
It
Depends
On
What
The
Person
Uses
It
For
Definitely
With
Great
Power
Becomes
Great
Responsibility
Okay
So
Since
We're
Talking
About
All
This
Wonderful
Stuff
About
IRC
I
Bet
You're
Going
How
The
Hell
Do
I
Join
So
We're
Going
To
Talk
A
Quick
Thing
About
Clients
The
Most
Popular
One
I
Guess
For
Windows
Based
Systems
Is
MIRC
Or
Is
MIRC
I
Don't
Even
Know
It
Is
MIRC
I
Thought
It
Is
Not
Mark
Is
MIRC
Yes
MIRC
It's
Basically
The
Most
Popular
Client
Ever
I
Remember
Using
It
Back
In
1996
Or
Trying
To
Use
It
Because
My
Computer
Was
Consulate
Crash
Because
It
Was
Windows
3.1
There
Are
A
Lot
More
But
It
Was
Basically
The
IRC
Client
For
Windows
Systems
Up
Until
Quite
Recently
There
Are
Lots
Of
More
Clients
Now
There
I
Just
MIRC
Is
Written
By
K
Lad
Martim
Bay
And
He
Has
He
Always
Been
Doing
It
And
He
Always
Released
To
Shareware
That
You
Like
But
If
You
Are
Using
His
Product
You
Should
Hook
Him
Up
And
Send
Him
A
Couple
Of
Bucks
And
Then
You
Can
Get
A
Registered
Version
He
Doesn't
Have
A
Nag
Screen
Or
Anything
He
Just
Saying
I
Made
This
Hook
A
Brother
Up
Hook
A
Brother
Up
There
With
Afro
There
Is
Also
A
Other
Windows
Clients
There
Berserk
B
E
R
S
IRC
K
V
IRC
Trillion
Which
Is
Also
A
Messaging
Client
And
XChat
Now
XChat
Is
Actually
The
Windows
Client
Their
Official
One
Is
In
Order
To
Download
The
Bineries
You
Have
To
Pay
For
It
And
That's
A
Bit
Of
A
Sticky
Subject
But
There's
Actually
A
Free
Client
Out
There
If
You
Look
And
I
Apologize
Right
Now
Because
I
Don't
Have
A
Quick
Link
To
It
But
I
Think
It's
Silver
X.org
Or
Look
For
OCCY
XChat
And
I
Believe
That'll
To
The
Right
One
Those
Are
All
Windows
Clients
Right
Yeah
These
Are
Windows
Clients
Basically
For
Mac
OS
10
There's
Something
Called
IRCLE
I
Believe
It's
Pronounced
Miracle
And
Colliqui
C-O-L-L-O-K-U-Y
There's
Also
An
XChat
Fork
Also
XChat
Open
Source
XChat
Also
Works
On
Linux
There's
XChat
Aqua
For
Linux
There's
A
Load
Of
Them
IRC2
Is
Basically
It's
The
Canonical
Unix
IRC
Client
I
Personally
Use
Something
Called
IRC
I
R
SSI
I
Highly
Recommended
It's
Console
Base
It's
Very
Customizable
And
It's
Pretty
Good
XChat
Also
Originally
For
Linux
There's
Also
One
Called
BitchX
Which
I
Can't
Stand
Personally
I
Don't
Know
Why
Really
Not
A
BitchX
Is
That
It
Wasn't
Like
It
Was
Developed
And
Developed
And
Developed
And
Then
They
Kind
Of
Just
Stopped
Developing
It
Like
They
Had
A
Lot
Of
Things
Like
There
Are
A
Lot
Of
Like
Ursi
Has
Features
With
Logging
Is
One
Example
Where
You
Can
Use
Wild
Characters
And
You
Can
Name
The
Logs
Based
On
The
Date
BitchX
Doesn't
Have
That
Functionality
Built
In
It
Kind
Of
Looks
Like
They
Got
It
To
Work
And
It
Works
Really
Well
They
Just
Didn't
Keep
Developing
New
And
Cooler
Features
It's
Not
A
Bad
Client
And
Usually
If
It
Works
Really
Well
You
Can
Just
Stop
Out
There
I
Don't
Know
But
Usually
It's
On
Just
About
Every
Single
Linux
Box
Or
You
Get
Stuck
And
You're
Somewhere
Give
BitchX
A
Try
Definitely
BitchX
Is
Always
There
My
IRS
Is
IRC
You
Have
To
Grab
It
Yourself
Also
There
Is
Built
In
Stuff
With
IRC
Clients
To
Web
Browsers
For
Example
There's
Chabtula
Which
Is
Part
Of
The
Mozilla
Distribution
Not
Firefox
But
Mozilla
Itself
And
Opera
Also
Has
A
Built
In
IRC
Client
For
The
Six
Of
You
That
Still
Use
Opera
If
You're
A
New
Person
MRC
Is
Really
It's
Intuitive
Kind
Of
But
It's
Also
Kind
Of
Complex
You
Might
Want
To
Prefer
Something
Called
Miranda
Or
Trillion
Which
Are
Both
Instant
Messaging
Clients
That
Have
IRC
Capability
So
They
Look
Very
Much
Like
Instant
Messaging
So
It's
Very
Easy
To
Ease
Yourself
In
Another
Nice
Thing
Of
MRC
Is
If
You're
Fancying
Yourself
As
An
Intermediate
User
MRC
Has
Built
In
Own
Scripting
Language
That's
Very
Easy
And
Very
Well
Documented
As
Well
As
There
Are
No
Less
Than
100
000
Add
On
Scripts
That
You
Could
Take
In
Personally
I
Use
A
Script
Called
Decadence
For
Windows
And
That
Has
A
Lot
Of
The
Channel
Protections
And
I
Guess
On
A
Later
Episode
We'll
Have
To
Cover
The
Attacks
And
Jazz
But
You know
A lot
Of
These
Clients
Have
Built-in
Programming
Support
XChat
Supports
Pearl
I
Know
A
Bunch
Of
The
Other
On
Will
Allow
You
To
Create
Your
Own
Script
Yeah
I
Tell
You
Work
On
An
IRC
Scripting
Episode
We'll
Have
To
Couple
Other
Others
Like
Linux
Help
I
Believe
Of
There's
Down
Where
You
Can
All
Talk
Where
Zygmunt
And I
Constantly
Hang
Out
You
Can
Always
See
Us
There
Whether
Or
Not
We'll
Actually
Be
At
The
Keyboard
Leaves
Something
To
Be
Found
Yeah
You're
Always
There
I'm
Usually
There
Pound
Diffenomicon
On
Freenode
As
Well
Which
Is
Find
Troops
And
All
His
Crew
Over
There
Troops
His
Crew
I
Just
Got
A
Really
Bad
Picture
In
My
Head
Yeah
Can
You
Think
Of
Any
Other
Fun
Channels
You
Might
Want
To
Point
Out
To
Our
Listeners
The
Only
One
That
I
Think
It's
So
Important
That
I
Mention
It
Again
Is
Freenode
Is
A
Great
Place
If
You
Have
A
Very
Specific
Question
Because
Usually
A
Lot
Of
Like
You
Were
Asterix
Try
Joining
Channel
Asterix
On
Whatever
Server
You
Are
On
It
Might
Not
Be
The
Main
Channel
But
It
Might
Just
Be
A
Couple
Of
Guys
That
Are
All
Asterix
Fans
If
You
Have
A
Question
And
You
Are
So
Much
You
Can
Google
Try
Joining
The
Name
Of
Whatever
It
You
Going
After
Or
Going
To
The
People
Website
And
It's
A
Great
Medium
For
People
To
Have
Conversation
In
Real
Time
Using
Something
Like
Paste
Bin
On
The
Sign
Where
You
Can
Paste
Little
Snippets
Of
Code
It's
Really
You
Got
It's
A
Many
To
Many
Communications
Protocol
You
Have
A
Lot
Of
People
Who
Can
Reach
In
And
Try
To
Give
You
A
Hand
With
Exactly
What
You're
Doing
So
Really
I
Believe
Pound
Asterix
Is
On
Freenode
Just
To
Toss
It
Oh
Is
On
Freenode
Okay
Yeah
Definitely
But
Yeah
Just
I mean
Go
For
It
You
Can
Always
Find
You
Know
It's
A
Worldwide
Thing
There's
Always
Somebody
Online
Somewhere
It's
And
I
Just
Think
It's
Always
Happy
Hour
In
Some
Place
It's
Always
Five
O'clock
Somewhere
Yep
Oh
Alright
Do
We
Have
I
Don't
Think
