dashNET is our IRC network, where Dashdot readers gather to discuss stories in real time, which is like
the comment section but faster and with fewer capital letters.
Point your IRC client at irc.dashnet.example, port 6667, and join #dashdot. Popular channels:
- #dashdot - general chat about the day's stories
- #y2k - countdown, bunker tips, bean recipes
- #linix-help - "how do I make my modem work" (answer: it's a Winmodem; it won't)
- #moderators - where people with points pretend they aren't bragging about it
