Very simple Python script that tracks one or multiple hosts/domains for IP changes, and prints it in a Matrix room.

Includes a Docker container to keep it running.

This is quick and dirty (and with the help of ChatGPT).

FlatTurtle has a new site, and there's been some fine-tuning here and there that led to a few typos creeping in. I wanted a quick tool to plug in a page, and that would highlight possible mistakes.

I've been a personal (paying) user of LanguageTool for a few years now (European, and less spammy and dodgy than Grammarly)

Content Update

The provided scripts have been updated on 16 Jul 2023. Specifically the SmartStrip part was not working as intended.

I've been a big fan of Betteruptime. I've started using it to monitor all my assets online (websites, DNS, ping, successful script runs) as well as my servers (using heartbeats).

I have a few Raspberry Pi's, and once in a while they hang (not sure why, maybe USB-to-SSD issues or something). Nothing too critical, but annoying.
