Unable to upload code to the Pixl.js running 2.18, disconnects while sending

Yep, confirmed with the banglejs2 (running 2v18) that copy and pasting long seuqences of characters don't disconnect me.

This is what I was copying and pasting:

const state = {
  led: true,
  curTemp: 0,
  prevTemp: 0,
  setTemp: 0,
  offset: 53,
  isRelayOn: false,
  isRunning: false,
  dirty: false,
};

doing the same for the mdbt42q (running 2v18) disconnects (and doesn't even show anything on the screen.
