Well that's frustrating. Found a bug in the brotli module that has been causing us random #DEFCON web server problems. Disabling brotli seems to fix it.
Now investigating replacing the brotli module with a zstandard module.

I'd like to thank @lattera for his fantastic debugging work to help identify the issue and @TCMBC for the great support.

We're excited to share a sneak peek of an upcoming treat at this year's DEF CON! @defcon
Consider this early draft a taste of what's to come
Stay tuned for more reveals as we approach Day Zero.
After two successful events in China, we've been looking for more places to share our hacker spirit with the world.
First up we will be dipping our cyber toe in Bahrain by taking part in the Arab International Cybersecurity Conference (AICS) and Exhibition November 5 and 6, 2025. We'll be bringing a sampling of our villages, workshops and contests so there's something for everyone. The conference is held in the cutting-edge Exhibition World Bahrain facility and everyone attending the AICS can take part in all of the DEF CON offerings for free.
Bonus: in an international first, we’ll also be offering exclusive DEF CON 2-day Training classes on November 3-4. Sharpen your skills with some hands-on, world-class instruction and maximize your DEF CON experience. More info on the trainings at https://training.defcon.org/collections/arab-cybersecurity-2025.
We're excited to share the #DEFCON experience with a brand new audience, so please save the dates. We'll have more information soon - watch https://defcon.org/html/defcon-bahrain/dc-bahrain-index.html for the updates!
#defconmovienight returns Saturday at 8pm PDT with ‘Reservoir Dogs’. Do your best slo-mo skinny-tie cool-walk over to the #defcon discord (discord.gg/defcon) for some film and fellowship. We’ll be hiding out in the movie-night-text channel.
We are just 4 weeks away from DEF CON 33 @defcon
