Welcome to browndawg's lowbrow society for programmers and sysadmins.
GNU/Lag doesn't have many rules you'd have to explicitly state. Don't be a dick, and you should be fine.
- No lurking If you're logged in 24/7, then every 12-14 days, you should engage in conversation. This is to avoid people making local logs while not adding anything to the channel. Part of the reason why we purged [m]atrix lurkers.
- No CP (we'll report you to every three letter agency in existence).
- NSFW content need not be marked. Please mark gore and such as NSFL.
- PSA
- Don't post logs anywhere.
- Don't sneeze whilst getting fingered.
While the channel was mostly founded by members of another Linux channel, #gnulag is a general channel, with some leaning towards programming and sysadmin stuff. You'll find a wide range of topics being discussed, including, but not limited to:
- Anything other than Linux
- Communism, Capitalism, Anarcho-syndicorporalicapitalisticimperialism within closed communal tribes.
- Music / Books / Movies / Anime / TV.
- Drugs.
- Kill all Humans.
- Indians being indians and hungarians being hungarians
- How awesome canada is
- Computer Science and Programming.
- Zygohistomorphic prepromorphisms.
- Poor career decisions (ask whiteph).
- Bad Dragons (actually, dildos of all shapes and sizes).
- Definitions of controversial words.
- Religion, and the occult.
- Life size Lennart Pöttering cutouts with a hole where the mouth is supposed to be.
- LGBTQIA+ stuff, porn, and sexuality in general.
- The existential threat of frontend web development.
- The UNIX philosophy and
how modern development is taking a giant shit on ithow good Lennart looks in plaid. - Definitely not talking about inline skating.
- Emacs and how awesome it is
- regular CLI vs TUI vs GUI pancrase fights
- audron
- Z | Zowlyfon
- iownall555
- Volkor | AWindowsKrill
- MrNeon
- belzurix
- TinyTimmyTokyo for Gantoo Lunix help or tips.
- A_Dragon | Roy_Mustang
- Anyone on the Suckless mailing list
In that order.

Observe our rule #1, aka the "no lurking" rule. If you stay connected and don't chat for 12-14 days, you'll get purged.
/mode +j #gnulag, or google on how to set upautojoinin your IRC client.- If you've been to Snoonet for more than a month, get a Snoonet BNC account (if you don't already have one),
- set up a Quassel Core / Weechat Relay / ZNC server somewhere.
Alternatively, ping skg for an account on their server. Right now, none of us are running bouncers.
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.
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 two services hosted by community members:
-
thecum.zone - by Volkor
-
WaifuPaste - by skg -
Pastor - by audron or use public services like:
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.
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.
The #linuxmasterrace also offered shelter to refugees of #gnulag during the tyranny period.
A Great Schism happened during early 2022, but the stormclouds have been congregating since 2021 september. Comrade leader showed animosity towards certain, proven citizens. Then, the CIA left the channel and the goverment collapsed. The comrade leader went full dictator, and when he realized he doesn't want to bother, he set up an interim government to stop the channel's coming breakdown. The interim government could only maintain authority in a small region, people started migrating.
There were three rump states. One of those was the irc channel, one was on telegram, and one is still alive on discord. The telegram quickly collapsed, its downfall coincided with the Russo-Ukrainian war.
After several months, the de facto leaders of the remaining states excommunicated each other, and the period of the Great Petty Schism started.
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".
It was a channel funded by our government. It's manufactured opposition, a honeypot for dissidents. k33k was responsible for managing it.
Here's the entire list of gonzobot commands.
Right now both the movie night and the stream sessions are on hiatus due to lack of interest. Ping basso for movie night and belzurix for streams.
We have regular movie nights at ever saturday, 18:00 UTC. You can vote for candidates at a totally not shady website hosted by us Stream by the courtesy of basso.
We have regular streams at every sunday, 22:00 CET (or CEST, whatever timezone belzurix is in). This currently means 21:00 UTC. Stream link
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>
