That's not at all friendly.
Edit: Same via https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.os2museum.com/wp/__trashed/ https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.os2museum.com/wp/__... and Google cache link goes nowhere. I guess that they just don't want readers.
- userbinator 8y agoTry changing your user-agent. This site is fussy about it and I guess it could be some sort of anti-bot protection.
- mirimir 8y agoJust Firefox here. And just to be clear, it's not so much that I can't read TFA. It's how rude the message is. Edit: Nope. Midori gives me the same error. They must be blocking VPN exits.
- nottorp 8y agoSafari and no VPN, same result.
- ksm 8y agoThe site was just down for several days, apparently due to high amount of comment spam so likely that’s why they are now extra fussy about the what accesses it and where from.
- detaro 8y agoThe site has been block-happy for a long time. Every time it comes up on HN or Twitter, it's a gamble if whatever ISP I'm on at the time is in good graces right now. But I can somewhat sympathize, spam-fighting sucks if you're caught in a wave of it...
- mjlee 8y agoI doubt it's intentionally rude - it's just the default HTTP 403 forbidden message from Apache web server (and perhaps some others.) It's likely the site administrator didn't have time to set up a custom 403 page.
