a Beautiful wallpaper for your phone 🥰

@niko unironically that’s the one i use because lore aside it’s a beautiful photo

@niko was this ever patched?

@notavi10 im pretty sure yeah

@niko is that the scp one or the one with the unrepresentable color beyond the range of wordly hues that crashed phones (not an scp)

@unnick its the latter one

@noisytoot basically this photo went viral for a bit because it was bricking android phones when set as a wallpaper. it’s in a color space that’s wider than sRGB and as a result had more luminance. at the time, android calculated luminance by rounding up the amount of red, blue, and green in the photo, even if some numbers should’ve been rounded down instead. a single pixel had too much red in it (257 > 256), which caused the classic integer overflow error

mrwhosetheboss has a great explainer on the whole thing:
