Using Linux/Unix Clients on Windows

Using Linux/Unix Clients on Windows

While most users on Windows will prefer the graphical clents, it's often possible to run clients meant for a Linux/Unix terminal under Windows with some effort, and at least two clients originally targeted to run under X are also available for Windows.

Trojan Horse Attacks

If you were referred here, you may have been "hacked" by a Trojan horse attack. It's crucial that you read this page and fix yourself immediately. Failure to do so could result in being disconnected from the IRC network, letting strangers access your private files, or worst yet, allowing your computer to be hijacked and used in criminal attacks on others.

Tax Plan

  • Repeal the IRS code almost in its entirity, leaving only the exceptions for nonprofits and religious institutions.
  • Make sure the code explicitly states any lobbying, campaign contributions, or other attempts to interfere with the political process automatically cancels tax exempt status.
  • Abolish all other current dedctions, exemptions, etc.
  • Eliminate current filing statuses in favor of "single with dependants" and "single without dependants.
  • Each indivudual filing as single gets a $25000 deduction from their gross income. Each individual that can be legally claimed as a dependant entitles the person claiming them to an additional $10000 deduction. If multiple individuals are entirled to claim a dependant, the deduction is split evenly between caretakers in the same household, and proportionally to cost of care for dependants supported by more than one individual in a single household. There are no other individual deductions.
  • For invividuals, IRS will send a postcard notice

generic "getting support on IRC" work in progress.

Getting Help via IRC

IRC is a popular communications medium for software developers and other highly technical users, and as such, there are a variety of channels available.

You will be talking, in almost every case to people who volunteer their time. Often the people helping you will be developers or other highly technical users. Their time is at a premium, and they are rarely, if ever under any obligation to help you. "Helpers", be they channel ops, developers, or simply other knowledgeable users, are willing to share their knowledge, and work hand in hand to answer questions and solve problems.

However, time and energy are scarce resources. There are two kinds of laziness in the technical world - the kind that leads people to build things to solve problems, which is highly admired, and the kind that expects everyone else to do all the work for them, which is highly despised.

Research into getting OpenWRT on the Netgear WNR2000v3

What I know so far:

  • the factory firmware is based on OpenWRT 7.09 (Kamikaze). No idea how heavily it's been modified.
  • DD-WRT has a build running on it already here
  • OpenWRT's supported devices page didn't list the WNR2000 at all, but the "legacy" page listed the wnr2000v1, which is a sligntly different model.
  • The openwrt wiki lists it as being WIP, and There's a forum thread linked, but it's only for the wnr2000v1, with no mention I could find of the v3 in the thread
