  1. Hostmask hiding and Secure IRC on Secure IRC? · · Score: 1

    Austnet (http://www.austnet.org - irc.austnet.org:6667) has had their virtual world system running for a while now, it masks all the hostnames and ip addresses effectively ie. dialup12.yourisp.com.au becomes vw-293.yourisp.com.au

    This works well, bans etc are still in place - I believe you can get the source for the server from their website as well.
    There are a few methods of getting users IP addresses: reversing the hash algorithim that generates the vw address in the first place, and initiating a dcc connection are two common methods. But for all intensive purposes it works quite well.

    At one stage some members of a channel I was in set up secure IRC using ssh2, not sure exactly how it works. caddis on efnet may give you more information.

  2. Re:Like rain on your wedding day on GeForce3: Real-time RenderMan? · · Score: 1

    Morrisette is Canadian I believe.

    Dont you think its Ironic that the song is called Ironic and doesnt contain any Irony. Perhaps thats the whole point?

  3. Australia OFLC on B.C. Officially Proposes Video Game Regulations · · Score: 1

    In Australia the Office of Film and Literature Classification gives each game a rating, the same ratings as our movies get.
    The only problems we have had is that if a game gets an R(18+) rating we dont get the game.
    A while ago there was a game called Postal which was never released for that reason, Im sure there have been a few since...

    > SOMEONE
    > SET UP
    > US THE
    > BOMB
    > !!!

    Coincidence that backwards that text would read:

    !!!
    BOMB THE US
    UP SET SOMEONE

    Not such a bad idea...
