Some Freenode nickname passwords may have been compromised

14K users sounds like a technical difficulty of some kind.

Whenever anything Freenode-related appears I feel it should just act as a reminder to change your passwords if you used your nickserv password for anything else. Assume it has been compromised at this point.

Are they allowing server admins who can't even set up the most obvious of Q:lines to link to the network, or is this a simplification?

I thought this had been a solved pitfall decades ago.

Absolutely no one cares. My namesake nick was used to trade bitcoin on #bitcoin-otc No one gives a fuck We knew what IRC (advantage of being almost completely incomparable with the iPhone) was. I've long since lost the relevant GPG keys but I'm sitting here in a luxury apartment listening excellent Irish folk music. One day I'll rejoin the nuts on IRC. Once I get the power management on my pinephone worked out, maybe after I buy a power mac and put Plan9 on it as well.

I miss you guys.
