Is there any reason why I can't connect to lainchan's server on irc using xchat? I used to do at until the beginning of this year, but I stopped because I got not internet for a while. But now I can't connect to it anymore.

- use hexchat instead of xchat
- verify that the SSL option is ticked and you connect on port 6697
- maybe Apple forgot to renew the cert again in which case you need to turn cert validation off
- probably don't visit #lainchan, it's cancer

Thank you, lain.

I don't. It's the programming channel that I liked.

Who is the artist that draws these pictures of lain? They're very well made

It's a reasonable assumption to make considering catzz has drawn lain before (which 9559 knows from the image) and the second image does feature the OS and iconography from the show. What makes it fall apart is that the second image's girl has the wrong eye color to be lain, meanwhile the first image does have the right one but isn't the girl in the second image, giving her no link to lain. So yeah it's not lain but it's not an unreasonable assumption.

I use lainchan with weechat, what issue are you having?
Lainchan IRC just requires you to use SSL on port 6697
So you would just do
/server add lainchan irc.lainchan.org/6697 -ssl
/connect lainchan

Hello. I'm new to IRC and am trying to make sure when I connect to the server I do so securely. I know about SSL connect and run a VPN, but is there anything else the lain server lets you use to help keep your interactions secure? I don't really mean so much from NSA or cops or whatever, but just so my personal info doesn't leak or is easy to get. I noticed the web GUI version lets you set a username and password. I use WeeChat.

nvm. Looks like you need to use a bouncer/proxy to properly hide your host/IP.
