When Gaben Says No To Your Wallet
The classic Steam summer sale experience: your wallet wants to live, but Lord Gaben has other plans. Just as you're about to score those sweet discounts, the 503 Service Unavailable error appears.

Must Be A DDoS Attack
Ah, the classic tech executive playbook: First, fire a third of your engineering team. Then, host a high-profile interview that everyone will want to watch. Finally, act surprised when your remaining skeleton crew can't handle the traffic spike. It's like removing three wheels from your car and then wondering why it can't complete a cross-country road trip. The distributed denial of service isn't from hackers—it's from your own distributed denial of common sense.
