  • If you’re wondering if it’s really that bad, have this quote:

    GNOME sysadmin, Bart Piotrowski, kindly shared some numbers to let people fully understand the scope of the problem. According to him, in around two hours and a half they received 81k total requests, and out of those only 3% passed Anubi’s proof of work, hinting at 97% of the traffic being bots

    And this is just one quote. The article is full of quotes of people all over reporting they can’t focus on their work because either the infra they rely on is constantly down, or because they’re the ones fighting to keep it functional.

    This shit is unsustainable. Fuck all of these AI companies.



  • I dunno, although pirating Minecraft is rather easy, I’d be a bit wary of deleting an account you spent money on like this. Doubly so if you used Hotmail.
    Nothing worse than finding you need access to an old account, then realizing it’s registered to an old email address you deleted. Headache!

    If I was you I’d delete all the data you can from the account, set a new very strong password, enable 2FA and leave it dormant. Never know when you might need it again ya know?








  • Their response from the second Reddit post:

    When you sent spam from your service in May of 2023, we asked you not to make us regret giving you a second chance. […]
    When you sent more spam on February 24 of 2024, we considered both interactions in our decision to terminate your account. […]
    Don’t take my word for it, you already made the logs public so here’s the spam you sent from our service:

    Unironically the best advertising possible for their service. If they’re being rude to those who deserve it, let it bang!
