FWIW I have been using the, skip the first slot, method for the last week or so and have not seen any problems yet.
Yet it seems pretty reliable other than the one hiccup I had.

That second png reports an error in PS if I try to dl it.

Wow... great. The bug borked another pic, which just messed up those three posts above AGAIN.  |O This is getting comical...

Is corruption a new phenomenon?

Yeah... eevBlog has had a wandering singularity ever since the last software update; it randomly erases pics from our current timeline. When the singularity eats a pic, it is "unmade" as if it never existed; which makes every pic associated with a user that came after that shift down a slot in the database. ;)  Much hilarity ensues.  :-DD

The "Skip the First" slot workaround casts a warding spell which usually works unless the server daemons are especially overloaded by high numbers of visitors to a thread; the singularity seems especially attracted to the busiest threads. *

alt-codes work here:  alt-0128 = €  alt-156 = £  alt-0216 = Ø  alt-225 = ß  alt-230 = µ  alt-234 = Ω  alt-236 = ∞  alt-248 = °

Perhaps somehow 5G is to blame for this?!?  :D

Chrome this morning has also told me the SSL certificate is not valid.

We may have to wait for the working day in Australia to start before it will be fixed.

There are 2 servers with a load balancer, one has an expired certificate and the other is still valid till the end of October. Which server you get depends on the dice in the load balancer.

You are correct, one of the server had faulted and was not renewing it's certificate. This has been corrected.

Yet Chrome is still displaying a Not Secure flag.  :-//
Same result with a manual refresh or F5 refresh.

Your end sorry mate, I just double-checked that both servers are using valid certificates now.

Edit: Note, not-secure is different to an invalid certificate. You may be trying to access resources over `http`, make sure you're hitting the site over `https` and nobody has embedded any non https content on the page you're on.

With Chrome, if you insist on a "not secure" connection after an invalid certificate message, Chrome will remember that setting for several hours before trying again. You have to force Chrome back to an https connection manually if you don't want to wait. The best way to do that seems to be to close the current tab and then open a new one.

Absolutely beseiged by 502s today, is one or more of the servers suffering from a stroke, or just a lack of timely whipping?

Investigating, I was alerted to this about an hour ago, seems something is causing high I/O load.

Was working fine late PM yesterday NZ time and I think another file was added overnight to an existing post that caused the issues.

Yup,

Issue fixed, another windows bitmap uploaded with a png extension. SMF goes nuts trying to load it and just hangs consuming tons of RAM.

Gnif: that's a notable denial of service vuln.  Unhappy or banned users could come back and wreck all sorts of havoc. 

Is the problem in core SMF or an addon?  https://github.com/SimpleMachines/SMF2.1/issues

Ouch. Programs like SMF should not blindly trust file extensions, they should look inside the file to determine (or verify) the actual type of content.
