github.com is being served to me, but without a css (wow, github is now a motherfuing website!)

So i can't reach the cdn...

    znpy@durendall:~$ dig @8.8.4.4 assets-cdn.github.com
    
    ; <<>> DiG 9.10.3-P4-Ubuntu <<>> @8.8.4.4 assets-cdn.github.com
    ; (1 server found)
    ;; global options: +cmd

Gitlab or Bitbucket. You could install Gitlab locally and use that in case of an outage. In my case I just push to two of them.

Same for me. I always mirror my code to gitlab.com and always push to both services.

But today I wanted to get the sources for a software I want to patch for Hacktoberfest but it only resides on github... Sigh.

add the following to your /etc/hosts file:

  192.30.253.113  github.com
  23.21.94.152    status.github.com
  192.30.253.113  *.github.com
