Someone tried to upload a massive image file of a pixel art DPRK soldier and crashed the site. I don’t remember the specifics, but I think it was something along the lines of the image hosting service/program trying to load the whole file into RAM and leaving none for the other stuff running on the server. Antics ensued.

yeah, wasn’t the image file somehow gigabytes in size and was like the largest possible upload you could possibly ever consider submitting?

literally put 100% of server load onto trying to accept the upload lel
