Ugh, yours seems older. -_-
When ColoCrossing has IPv6.

Nobody needs ipv6, and nobody needs httpS
Ipv4 and http 4life! 😂
Nobody care at CC
Week before black Friday
Let's hope their speed is very much faster than the reaction time of some mods.
The 5th of never.
Time for let'sencrypt. lol
If it was a Let's Encrypt cert, I would have said 12 hours. But since Go Daddy, I'll say 2 days.
Since LET is using cloudflare, they could just use the cert provided by them
Do we even need the certificate? Our info is being sold anyhow.
Don't need it, so never.
But instead, they spend $200/mo on the Business plan just to use their own expired cert.
Let's not forget that LET mods are given 0 incentive to run this CC sponsored forum. Given how CC interacts with the volunteer staff here, I'm surprised that this place has any moderators left at all.
Which year though?
Is there really any compromise of security when a cert is expired?
I mean, it's still an https connection, it's just that on some arbitrary basis, it's "expired".
Over longer periods, yes, I get the idea...if they never expired, then I could buy sadisticjizzmissile.com[*] and present a cert from 20 years ago bought by an old owner and you'd think it was still the same identity (if I had the private key), etc. But I wonder if the relatively short expiration periods (typically 1 year) aren't more for CA convenience/revenue than anything else.

[*] this is actually a domain name @Nekki invented in a conversation years ago that for some reason stuck in my head. It's the sadism part of it that makes me laugh every single time.
Sent an email to CC.. Let the countdown officially begin because I'm sure it's the first they're aware of it.
LEB also expired.
FreeBSD is not expired. It works. Cheers.
