it counts as a slashdot in my books;) but i think reddit and gizmodo had my server knocked out before/. posted. i just spent an evening migrating the site to a better server, and I did end up moving the images to s3 less than a day ago. also, my php had been calling getimagesize() on all the images to generate html width,height attributes, and that tron page has like 20 mb of jpgs on it. the `www' subdomain and the regular DNS should both work now.. at least it has already propagated to where I am. it was totally my bad for not predicting the spike. i will never call getimagesize() again without caching it.
