    Elon's blaming DDOS. You know I heard that the people who bulit Twitter did a great job figuring out how to handle those. Gosh, I wonder what ever happened them?

    Everyone knows that the best way to address DDOS is to unplug random servers until things either stop working, or start working again.

      The most illegal part of a DDoS is usually the hacking / exploiting of thousands or millions of devices to make them all request twitter.com

      I'm not entirely sure what rules it would fall under if you somehow performed a DDoS using entirely your own hardware and Internet connections. It might even be legal, just against the ToS of basically every ISP. I'm pretty sure if Google or ChatGPT take down a site by sending too many crawlers there's no legal consequences.

      There is also the Hug of Death, I don't think that's illegal

        • X, the former Twitter, has experienced a worldwide outage as of 12PM on Monday CAT.
        • This is likely the first major outage of the company since Musk took ownership in 2022.
        • The outage seems to have only lasted for about half an hour.

          The legal difference would be intent; are you trying to access the website, or are you trying to bog it down? Proving intent can of course be difficult, but OTOH I don't know how much longer American courts are going to care about silly things like proof

          So, exactly what must a person avoid doing to keep from exacerbating X's DDos problem today?

            This was bound to happen, someone was going to attack the Nazi propaganda platform formerly known as Twitter at some point.

              Don't you unplug it and plug it back in again?

                You might consider adding a couple eggs to that. Since you can afford "permesan" and butter, I feel like it's possible you might even be able to afford the eggs without having to take out a small personal loan.

                  That's not really an authentic American meal unless you deep fry it in HFCS.

                        Permesan is just fancy Parmesan.

                        I cant afford TWO whole eggs though. Thats just silly now.

                            The bomb’s payload is exposed. I can use the power winch, to trigger a controlled explosion.

                              This sounds as delicious as 64 slices of American cheese.

                                Half an hour is still pretty huge for a site like Xitter.

                                        Oh no. So anyway, tonight we're having a stereotypical American meal that takes 25 minutes off your life; Sloppy joes, macaroni and cheese, and potato salad. It's quite good, everything made from scratch since I don't have a job anymore. How about you?

                                        I'm not going to lie, that sounds really good. I'm sorry about your job, but your dinner sounds amazing.

                                          American cheese is not really cheese, and kinda gross compared to any other popular cheese.
