Can't register on the forum due to this: What is the output of "date -u +%V$(uname)|sha256sum|sed 's/\W//g'"?

I'm running dual boot, and I do not have X setup on Arch. I also can't boot into Arch quick enough to run the command and then dual boot back into Windows to paste the answer. Is there any way to fix this issue, or can I assume that I'm going to be forced into installing X before I'm ready, so that I can register on the forum?

Thanks
This task depends upon

Seriously?

Direct the output to a file and then open it in Windows?
Send the output to a pastebin and then view it in a web browser?
Direct the output to a file and then use it in a web browser?
(You do know you can browse the web without X, right? And that you can send stuff to a pastebin without X? And...)

EDIT: I just realised the "speed" bit. The date is just returning iso week. Provided you can boot into Arch, run the command and reboot into Windows within 7 days (and do not pick right on week's edge), you should be fine.

I'll try this tomorrow.

Send the output to a pastebin and then view it in a web browser?

Pastebin?

Direct the output to a file and then use it in a web browser?

If the first one doesn't work I'll try this..tomorrow.

You do know you can browse the web without X, right?

I think wget, but I'm not 100% sure.

And that you can send stuff to a pastebin without X

Pastebin?

No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night...
