It's going to start raining sulfur all over the world anytime now.

If you noticed problems with the Cube pages yesterday - missing images and occasional lack of structure - that was an unfortunate part of our migration to the new firewall and CDN, caused by the last month's hacking. It has since been corrected. There are a few small wrinkles still to be ironed out, but it's mostly fine now.

It seems to be doing its job and I hope this settles the spambot issue for now. You can test it if you want by trying to register.

In related news, I spent all day yesterday going through our users and was able to delete thousands of spam registrations that had collected over the years.

If only we could 'delete' thoughtcriminals as easily as spambots…
