Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK.

What is even happening?

Question: Do we have a mark-all-threads as read function?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No.

Thanks, ita. I wasn't sure if I couldn't find it because I'm me.

The board is really slow tonight.

My home network is bogged down with a lot of large file copies, so I can't tell--are other people experiencing slowness? Hands?

Because books.

It's seemed a little slow all day to me.

I'm feeling like the internet in general is slow, so yeah, also here.

The site is slow because we have been hacked.

I logged in and found the following script running: /var/www/vhosts/buffistas.org/cgi-bin/footgear.pl. Modification time of Feb 24.

The script is some kind of DDOS program. I think we have been using a shit-ton of bandwidth the past week or so.

I killed any footgear.pl processes that were running, moved the script out of the way, and made the cgi-bin directory unwritable. It will take me a while to go through the logs to see if I can figure out how they got in.
