John Olinda If you have a laptop that's being suspended all the time, what's the best way to maintain presence on IRC?

Martijn Setting up a bouncer is probably the only way. Is there any particular reason you need to maintain the connection?

Mark Dain I'll see if I can get ZNC setup over the weekend. Can it handle DCC? I'd like (if possible) to send the message via Pushover if I'm not connected. That would be great! So if anyone says my name or messages me, I can come online
