       | I've been running into a small issue: this website has no problem
       | generating URLs which are too long for itself:)
       | 
       | For instance, I managed to get the following output:
       | 
       | > https://ooooooooooooooooooooooo.ooo/ooooooooooooooooooo...
       | 
       | which gives me a 414 request URI too large.
