Does that refer to Izzy, or the people who complained because they expressed their opinion?

Nope, but it will stop the less determined ones.

With no email verification, you can pretty much create dozens of fake accounts per second - as fast as the API can handle.

Regardless of what tool OP ends up using, this is the most straightforward way.

I’m not defending anyone.

I didn’t expect I had to spell it out for you, but here’s what I’m saying: Until some kind of international investigation force comes out with clear evidence, anyone who tells you “who did it”, is just projecting who they want to be the perpetrator.

The problem with asking “who’s behind this untraceable* attack?” is that you either truthful but useless answers (we don’t know), or just someone speculating that their “enemy” is responsible. I wouldn’t use the word projection so easily in this context, if I were you.

First off all, the components are selected for the Linux compatibility, so it’s guaranteed to work. But they also provide some tools to make sure you use the preferred drivers, a control center tool for customising fan speeds, etc. All of which are open source. They even provide the windows drivers for all configs for when you want to dusk boot (and those are even fairly up to date).

Bought my last few laptops from Tuxedo. Their 13" infinibook can be quite noisy, but I’m having a blast with the Polaris I bought last year.

With a ddos, there’s no way of knowing. But given that the attacks are this mild, probably not someone we’ve heard of.

Would have been nice if they had addressed this circlejerk tinfoil hat theory as well.

If that were the case, I think he would have paid a bit more and make sure it would have stayed down. No competition was destroyed here.

I think it’s Far more likely that it’s just a bunch of scriptkiddies saying “when I press button, error page goes brrrrrrr”.

In the end it’s all just a linguistics game though - you’re profiting off the work somebody did, without paying the rate they charge for it.

But that’s exactly the kind of answer you’ll get in a community focused on piracy. Most people wouldn’t be here if they hadn’t already justified piracy.

Any basis for this conspiracy theory?

Dick the birthday boy? What are you doing here?

Mister Plinkett? What are you doing here?

They don’t need everyone to comply, just the vast majority.

If you’re in Europe, I can recommend Tuxedo Computers. They specialise in making Linux based computers, and are highly configurable.

Thanks!

Thanks!
