You know, I find it quite annoying that hackers will choose a target like Steam rather than a force that’s actually evil in this world. Like, put your skills to good use at least…
Right? If you’re gonna be a dick, why not fuck someone who deserves it?
They might think forcing people to do something besides videogames would result in less apathy twoards the problems facing our world.
So that’s why I had one update stuck on Steam yesterday.
I played a few DoTA games with friends while this was occurring and twice during gameplay approximately 10 seconds of play experienced some server-side lag for everyone in the game - there were moments of confusion that rapidly passed. Steam ops team did well.
Truly a tremendous impact and a fantastic use of the attackers time and resources.
Kinda puts the Silksong launch into perspective…
My game last night was more like a couple minutes of lag. Luckily, Dota has an in-built system to detect it, so the game wasn’t recorded and those of us who didn’t leave spent the remainder of the game messing around.
Is it the same people ddosing the aur
Oh, that might have been me. Installed Cachy the other day and tried out a lot of packages just to see what works. Sorry about that.
Imagine being so much of a turbovirgin that you have to ddos arch virgins.
(I use Arch btw)
Manjaro?
Could be, but it happened before this a day ago (as of writing this)
