Error 418 - I'm a Teapot

Summary:

During routine maintenance, a corrupted line of code leaks into Optimus Prime's system, triggering a malfunction in his interfacing components and activating protocols that have lain dormant for eons. The presence of the Matrix of Leadership compounds the issue, making it challenging for lesser engines to endure the Prime's immense charge—let alone fulfill the server request.

I'm a teapot. It’s official, finally.

[A] 15-year-old programmer Shane Brunswick [...] started a "Save 418" movement, giving it the #Save418 hashtag.

The teapot error is something "that puts a smile on your face," Brunswick told Business Insider. It's a silly little thing from the early internet that's worth preserving, he said.

"It’s a reminder that the underlying processes of computers are still made by humans," Brunswick said. "It'd be a real shame to see 418 go."
