Hmmm. SoD. DoS. Denial of Service, as in DDoS, Distributed Denial of Service, where you get a botnet of computers to FLOOD a network server with more junk packets than it can process, essentially shutting down a Web site or other Internet service. I’m sure that’s just a coincidence... pItlh charghwI’ ‘utlh (ghaH, ghaH, -Daj)

SoD was in TKD, published in 1985, 11 years before the first DoS attack happened in 1996. I always remembered it because of "sodden", which means "saturated with liquid, especially water; soaked through". qurgh On Fri, Dec 13, 2024 at 6:21 PM Will Martin via tlhIngan-Hol < tlhingan-hol@lists.kli.org> wrote:
