From 12ft – Wikipedia:
On July 17, 2025, the News Media Alliance reported that it had taken down the website.
It’s impossible to enjoy the content of online media by paying (for instance because payment systems are not compatible, but also because those media often have region blocks), so this is to longer ladders (and understanding how ladders work):

Na elk jaar lijkt de lijst te verdwijnen, dus daarom gearchiveerd:

Besides the August 2025 XKCD infrastructure dependency inspired cartoon on the right, the more recent and great [Wayback/Archive] XCKD: Dependency derivative below is a monumental piece as it combines the recent:

For more than an hour, any page on the Wayback Machine leads to [Archive] Internet Archive: Scheduled Maintenance:
Temporarily Offline
Internet Archive services are temporarily offline.
Please check our official accounts, including Twitter/X, Bluesky or Mastodon for the latest information.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Edit 20251209 18:22Z:
Back then I didn’t have time to put all updates in the blog post, so I put them as a reply below the [Archive] Richard MacManus: “The Wayback Machine has been offline for the past hour or so…” – Mastodon.
Later I forgot to update this blog post, but I just bumped into the thread again, so here it is:
- [Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers: “RE: https://wiert.me/2025/11/2…” – Mastodon
This is very typical for almost all their maintenance and outages and really frustrating for their users (of which luckily more and more are donating to them).
Plus that the title suggests the whole Internet Archive is under maintenance whereas the rest really is working pretty OK.
A page like `status.web.archive.org` or `status.archive.org` would be a much welcomed.
Just blogged about it: https://wiert.wordpress.com/?p=187822
(Hopefully Mastodon gets backtick code formatting)
- [Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers: “@ricmac @internetarchive It …” – Mastodon
It didn’t, but now that I’m back behind a keyboard, I see some social media activity by Jason Scott:

There is at least some progress:

Some 32 hours after the outage started, the status is this:

– SRY page for https://web.archive.org/save/https://mastodon.social/@wiert/115582221809188503

Also some social media coverage yesterday:

– https://mastodon.archive.org/@internetarchive/115583852434614027The first were at almost 8 hours after the incident started. That’s pretty late for status updates on a large outage.
Time to get to the next appointment. Back in some 8 hours or so.

The appointment took way longer: got back late, did the mandatory 12 hour recovery hence the follow up only now.
The good thing: the Wayback Machine seems to have fully recovered.
New social media coverage some 2 hours after my coverage yesterday confirms this:
– https://x.com/internetarchive/status/1991888073446318191
– https://bsky.app/profile/archive.org/post/3m65l4skb3c2c
– https://mastodon.archive.org/@internetarchive/115588341280707332
Glad things work again. Now going through my backlog of pages that need to be archived.
- [Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers: “@ricmac @internetarchive Slo…” – Mastodon
Slowly archival times go down. From about 20 hours 2 days ago to about 6 hours now.
Edit 20251120T1614Z:
For a short time, some of the links didn’t redirect to the above SRY page, but now they again do. This was just a short happy period:

Voor mijn link archief: KPN telefooncentrales, waarvan een paar waar familie of ik een aansluiting had:
[Wayback/Archive] Wijkcentrales – VVDSL.robinflikkema.nl
Deze hadden Mojibake met de generic replacement character (“�”):
Wijkcentrales Code Plek Ctlr [Wayback/Archive] Wijkcentrale: Castelr� – VVDSL.robinflikkema.nl
(moet Castelré zijn)Odi [Wayback/Archive] Wijkcentrale: St. Odili�nberg – VVDSL.robinflikkema.nl
(moet Sint Odiliënberg zijn)
Let op: de [Wayback/Archive] fourstack KPN UI (toenmalig gebouwd door [Wayback/Archive] FourStack) is sinds 2021 uit de lucht, zie [WaybackSave/ArchiveBad] FPI Fourstack Snelheid DSL – Internet en hosting – GoT , dus de gegevens worden niet meer bijgewerkt.

Note that http://neverssl.com is the way to figure out if you are in a captive portal, see below.
In Windows 10, the name of the endpoint changed from
msftncsitomsftconnecttest, presumably to make the purpose of the access more obvious in security and audit logs. Nobody will understand that NCSI stands for Network Connectivity Status Indicator.
[Wayback/Archive] Trouble connecting to Web sites and services because of certificate errors? Check if you’re being held captive – The Old New Thing
It refers to a few other interesting sites, for instance about modifying if/how NCSI detects internet connectivity:
You can turn off NCSI by doing one of the following:
- Create a
REG_DWORDregistry setting namedNoActiveProbeinHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\NetworkConnectivityStatusIndicatorwith a value of1(one).

I have seen too many sites where cabling was laid en never tested before actual use, which meant locating the cabling and faults was a nightmare.
Be sure to have good (which can be very simple, but more complex when Power over Ethernet is involved) testing hardware and use it during installation. You will thank yourself later.
A few videos that can be helpful:
