As part of the devs farewell message on their site, they have included malicious code to make each visitor sends 2,000 requests to the dbzer0 servers in an attempt to DDOS and take the instance offline.
Dear Lord, please grant me this level of pettiness and the presence of mind to wield that pettiness only against those who deserve it. Amen.
jesus christ he just needs to take the l
Can someone explain what the hell this whole situation is? I didn’t really even know what tesseract even was before this happened.
I’m 2 days late to checking the banlist and even though I didn’t make the exact user match, I did make the regex match lol.
where i can get the list? I want to check something.
And that’s how you go from loser troll to criminal. 👋
What a whiny little piss baby of a person.
It’d be hilarious if this dude went to prison over this, because it seems like he finally crossed from “annoying and unethical but legal” to straight up illegal.
This Admiral Patrick person needs mental counseling of some kind.
Tesseract is officially malware. What a petulant child Patrick is.
I think this is the first time the whole fediverse agrees to who the asshole is.
Thanks, dev of Tesseract, you actually left a positive impact on the fediverse. Please don’t come back.
Does that even work? I would have thought CORS would block it…
Finally, a cause we can all agree with. Bringing down that instance of hypocrites would make the ultimate act of human development, mercy, and compassion for everyone involved. It’d be the sublimest act of humanitarian achievement to grace the Earth worthy of our greatest tributes & highest honors. It’d shift civilizations & dawn a new age of enlightenment.
Such a shame that the code seems invalid. Does it even work?
Noble gesture, though.
Can someone ELI5? I’m way out of the loop and almost too afraid to ask at this point.
Is tessaract an instance? My understanding through memes is that they hardcoded a blocklist of users and instances and it became a badge of honor to have your name on it.
