Browsing the uber-1337 way

Post by Durandal »

Yes, my ISP, Verizon, blows. For some reason, I cannot access the site from home (pings and traceroutes all yield nothing), but I can access it from work. Therefore, the obvious solution to my problem was to install lynx on my work machine, SSH into it and browse the boards using lynx.

Fuck Verizon.

Or if you are too lazy to configure X, use links. The formatting looks better.
