In January 2026, Archive.Today Added Code Into Its Website In Order To Perform A Distributed Denial-Of-Service Attack Against A Blog
So Archive.Today decided to weaponize their visitors' browsers into an involuntary botnet. That circled code at the bottom? Pure chaos. They're using setInterval to repeatedly fire off fetch requests to gyrovague.com with randomized query parameters every 300ms. Classic DDoS-as-a-Service, except the "service" is mandatory for anyone trying to access their site. The beautiful irony? Archive sites exist to preserve content and protect against censorship, yet here they are literally trying to nuke someone's blog off the internet by turning every visitor into an unwitting attack vector. It's like a library burning down another library using its patrons as arsonists. Also notice the Cloudflare CAPTCHA at the top? They're hiding behind DDoS protection while simultaneously launching DDoS attacks. The hypocrisy is *chef's kiss*. That's some next-level "I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me" energy.

What's Stopping You From Coding Like This

What's Stopping You From Coding Like This
Nothing says "I've transcended mere mortal programming" like writing JavaScript fetch requests on what appears to be a phone from 2007 with actual physical buttons. The 20% battery is the chef's kiss – clearly this developer lives dangerously. This is peak "I need to fix production NOW but I'm at my cousin's anime-themed birthday party." The code is surprisingly readable though! Gotta respect someone fetching videos with promise chains on what's essentially a calculator with a screen. The real question isn't what's stopping you from coding like this – it's why would anyone voluntarily choose this digital torture device when a proper keyboard exists somewhere in the world?
