Yeah, something about this is off. I was thinking that the 74 year old driver was white and a “pillar of the community”.
Ah, that’s right. Antipasto is Italian or something for first course.
I think I’m an antipastafarian now. What do we worship? Hot dogs? Wikipedia?
Bubb Rubb approves.
The word “hack” is pre-internet. A “hack” journalist or a “hack job” is basically something unprofessional. It is movies that turned “hackers” into someone that gained access to the “mainframe”. In the realm of computer systems, I would argue that a “hack” is doing anything the system was not intended/designed to do. A successful DoS or DDoS needs to find some component of the system that wasn’t designed to handle the amount of traffic about to be sent to it.
There are protections for DDoS (iptables, fail2ban, Cloudflare and so on), you have to figure out a way around them, that’s a hack.
