Go away Daddy, I’m riding on a Black knight!

What in the name of heck…?
Alright, the past 12 hours really haven’t been nice for me. Unexplained site goings-down are not nice at all. Especiall when you come back in a bit to find it still not working. And again, and again, and again.

Let sleeping domains die
If a site dies, it really should be left for dead. Reviving it won’t last for very long. It’s time to leave H3L for dead and instead focus on real life. Or on some new ideas

.htaccess hacking
300 page-views in 3 hours, all happening within 3 seconds of each other, from the same IP from two different user-agents? Alright, something is up here - let’s block it as a precaution…
