(2) There's the question of why that site isn't taken down (or how it pays its bills) and my guess is this: In the 2000s it was an open secret that you could read the news on most sites like The New York Times with the username and password... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Christmas Day menu ideas

  This pot roast with winter root vegetables (I use rutabaga instead of celery root, but any root veggies are perfect) No sides needed other than bread and/or maybe some noodles. If you want a green vegetable, track down a whole stalk of brussels sprouts and roast them. Recipe is paywalled on epicurious.com and you can no longer paste links from 12 ft ladder, but you can access yourself through it https://12ft.io/. Source: 6 months ago

• Monitor Connectivity Software ???

  Statuscake.com if you just need a simple up/down monitor. Source: about 2 years ago

• basic external monitoring system

  I've had a great time with statuscake.com for my personal and friends sites. They've even improved custom status pages to include an automatically signed certificate too, so you can make a site like status.yourdomain.com... Test TCP connection, specific HTTP/HTTPS query etc. 5 minute intervals for free, more with paid plans. Source: about 2 years ago

  I use statuscake.com for external stuff and nagios for internal. PRTG is good too. Source: over 2 years ago
