Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

Control of information is the real power.
Look at every dictatorship. Look at extremism. Look at wife beaters ffs. If someone is trying to DDOS the Internet Archive then someone is trying to mess with the free flow of information.
I doubt it. If someone wanted to do real harm they would launch a more traditional attack
DDoS is the most traditional brute force attack you can hit a website with.
Setting fire to the servers is trickier.
They could target an employee in a phishing email or leave USB drives on the doorstep
Again, a lot more work than a ddos
