https://n0thanky0u.neocities.org/Anubis_is_malware/ &gt; Anubis is malware. I asked the server to serve me a webpage and instead it ran code on my machine without my permission. That is malware. It uses the exact same method as a crypto miner, that being running a javascript &quot;proof-of-work&quot; solver in your browser.

Started working on a framework for making a very specific kind of interactive fiction in #Godot called a &quot;sound novel&quot; (compared to &quot;visual novel&quot;) which focuses on the audio ambience creating atmosphere over visuals (though it still has visuals). I started by doing everything by hand, but managing many Resources manually gets tiresome (especially when they can&#39;t directly reference each other cyclically in the editor...) so I made a graph editor today...

Timeline: 2 AM: Steam Controller goes sales open. Komodo (distributor for Asia) website crashes. 2:30 AM: Komodo makes a statement that &quot;we are sorry for the inconvenience that was caused&quot; in the past tense as though the inconvenience is over. 5 AM: website still down. No news. I give up and go to sleep. 12 PM: I wake up. Komodo reports the Steam Controller is sold out. Scalpers are already listing on reselling sites for a markup. How does this *still* consistently happen?
