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.

I believe this is a meme, an old tweet from dril, a user popular for surreal and absurdist humor.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

I think for dril the post was in turn a funny theory on what happened to people sent to the twilight zone's cornfield.

[–] bless@lemmy.ml 9 points 3 weeks ago

I don't know, it was like that when I stole it

It's mostly wasted space.

People like him have multiple accounts.

As in not just honest ones for robustness against outages, but, sock puppets?

Another sus account is @Teacrumble@lemmy.world. Dormant account that suddenly woke up to defend Patrick right after the drama happened.

[–] Luci@lemmy.ca 20 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I asked him to be put on the list and after a bit of back and forth I was finally added

Which means he can’t see my posts from any of his alts! 🎉🎉🥳🥳

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Assuming his alts are all using his front end, or his personal instance, I guess.

[–] WraithGear@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

there is no way his ego would allow him to be blinded from people have to say about him. so i doubt he uses tesserect on anything more then his test account. because hypocrisy is dead

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

I bet he browsed with toxic mode enabled. Or maybe a special mode that just flagged the word blocks so he could promote them to user blocks.

[–] 0ops@piefed.zip 16 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

No doubt he's reading these

...Hi dork 👋

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You rang?

...Wait, not me?

Yeah, he's definitely still around because he recently replied to a comment of mine using one of his alt accounts, and did so in order to confirm that said account was one of his alts. How strange.

[–] 0ops@piefed.zip 7 points 3 weeks ago

Hi dork! (with love)

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

i love how he burned all his alts defending himself

[–] rounding_error@lemmy.today 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

i wasn't keeping too close track

[–] dreadbeef@lemmy.dbzer0.com -5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

because he's an emotionally fragile, egotistical narcisist. Wouldn't be surprised if his parents are pieces of shit, too
