Nuke
A nuke is a developer command that can wipe pixels off the canvas within a specific area. Two diagonally-opposing sets of coordinates are selected around the area to be nuked, forming opposing corners of a rectangle. Everything within that rectangle is deleted and reverted to virgin pixels. The command is available only to Pxls developers with server access.
History
The nuke command has been used nine times over its history:
- Canvas 3: Removing Seig Heil girl
- Canvas 13: Removing "Kill All Communists/Kill All Fascists" sign
- Canvas 17: Removing 2ch Yoba
- Canvas 19: Removing 2ch New Year Yoba
- Canvas 28: Removing USSR flag
- Canvas 31: Removing Ahegao
- Canvas 38: Removing Banned Lives Matter
- Canvas 39: Fixing the canvas text
- Canvas 42: Removing homophobic text
- Canvas 47: Removing 2ch arts
- Canvas 56a: Removing mod abuse outside of the canvas. The first nuke command was mistyped, resulting in most of the canvas being nuked and the site briefly being taken down to be rolled back to before the nuke.
