the dedicated server situation was (is?) pretty dire back when i hosted a few SRCDS instances. here's a small taste: https://wiki.alliedmods.net/SRCDS_Hardening#Current_Exploits

not to mention that the commands themselves obey absolutely zero *NIX conventions at all. Left a bad taste in my mouth ever since

>"it seems that archive.is responds to queries from Cloudflare’s systems with an incorrect response."

What makes the response incorrect? I was under the impression that DNS implementations were under no "practical" obligation to return consistent queries to differing requester IP addresses (hence stuff like split-horizon DNS and EDNS: https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/ecs )

Hell, I 'read' whole books by just reading the back cover! This way, I get through hundreds of books every time I visit the library!

When you can figure out which is which, you might be onto something. Until then this is a very...mediocre comment.
