A simple DoS (Denial of Service) would be if all those cutouts were driven to the theatre in a single school bus. These are easy to protect against, since the movie theatre can just put up a picture of the school bus driver in the ticket booth, and simply refuse to sell him more tickets. By contrast, a DDoS (*Distributed* Denial of Service) would be if that school bus driver, instead of going directly to the theatre, had cruised around his neighbourhood, going door to door and convincing his neighbours to adopt the cutouts, and also that the cutouts all want to see the movie, so that each household would buy a single ticket for their own cutout independently, without even realizing the cutout isn't a real person.
Know what's funny? I knew nothing about what a DDos was. This meme actually allowed me to understand the fundamentals, and them being Crewmates begins to make sense. Honestly impressive. We should really start explaining more stuff through memes just like this one. Learned something today from this. Thanks!
What is funny is Ddos attacks are arguably not even illegal. It's just someone flooding a server with requests. They are allowed to send as many requests as they want. Sometimes real users may even ddos accidentally. This is why it's the responsibility of the owner to implement anti-ddos techniques on their servers.
If it's done with intent then it becomes a felony under the computer fraud and misuse act. Knock yourself offline because you're a dumbass and wrote some code that dos'es yourself then it's fine

Coming from someone who can barely restart a router, this was more informative than I expected. What I gathered is that multiple bots spam the server till it overloads and crashes, taking anyone using the server down with it?
Big amoguses yapping incoming means stop_posting_about_amongus.mp4 so block the moguses and get them kicked out with the rizz memory and put a fix_everything_tape.png to prevent more amogi. Or just be rude and pick the crewmates that are not imposters, but remember some crewmates will not access the Service if they want to, or the imposter will disguise itself as a crewmate. (explanation for gen alpha dummies)
Bloody hell, never realized how shitposts could actually be used to educate people. I also feel like this is gonna turn into one of those niche meme genres that's gonna go viral and will refuse to die. Basically Boykisser but an entire meme genre.
How i understood this was: A system/several systems flood a server with bad information, causeing an inevitable crash because the server simply can not handle the sheer volume of requests
Basically- you spam a command until the system runs out of memory or threads to handle incoming requests. Doesn't matter how fast your server is. You can spam it into giving up.
there is a point where the server is good enough that even 99% of the world is infected, and still no crashes If you can get to that point, Congratulations, you have earned the strongest server in the world

This is incredible. I studied this in trade school and, while I understood it, this is even easier to understand than what I was taught. Every meme was perfectly deployed. The use of "Among Us" spacemen and their concept of an imposter perfectly covered the imitation of calls to the server, in which they pretend to be a real user.

It's just an illustration It could be anything, it could be a ton of users posting 8k 120fps videos on UA-cam. That counts as DoS (DDoS if someone commands a lot of people and not a single person posting)

We've almost come full circle when it comes to brainrot memes. This is the halfway point where we apply brainrot to past humor to make them informative. There's still another halfway to go, prolly by applying more 21st century humor to it to make it brainrot again. And the cycle resets every generation.
the only part some people might get it wrong is that the server wont always crash in ddos some method of ddos isn't consuming cpu , a simple example is tcp-syn flood, which will only fill the half-connected queue so other cant connect to the server because the half connected queue is fulled an the new syn request will be dropped.

What is funny is Ddos attacks are arguably not even illegal. It's just someone flooding a server with requests. They are allowed to send as many requests as they want. Sometimes real users may even ddos accidentally. This is why it's the responsibility of the owner to implement anti-ddos techniques on their servers.
Yes, it should be the responsibility of good people to stop retards from doing retarded things
The illegal part is the setup of bots. It's extremely hard to find a way to get enough bots legally to form a sizable network.
If it's done with intent then it becomes a felony under the computer fraud and misuse act. Knock yourself offline because you're a dumbass and wrote some code that dos'es yourself then it's fine
Real users can only cause DoS, not DDoS. The latter requires control over many machines across different locations
no they definitely are illegal lmao
Bots should be on the side of the users, since the server responds to them as users and thats what makes it unable to respond to users who arent bots
Yeah, except those other users aren't infected with the *Amogus ඞ* virus 😂
