Anyone else been getting this recently? I just get an "Insecure Connection" block page when I try to go to SpaceBattles in the past few hours.

Their https certificate expired a hour ago, I think. Hopefully, it'll be fixed soon, my browser doesn't leave the override to let make poor life choices out where it's easy to get at any more.
EDIT: Now live again!

Not certificate expiration or anything like that -- Comcast was screwed up all over the country yesterday, putting maybe a third of the net offline for a few hours.

Some one tripped over a power supply perhaps? or maybe their PHB decided to make a Pot of Coffee....

Apparently, two lines were cut in two different places; "One between NYC & Chicago, the second between Ashburn & South Carolina."
This is what happens when you decide to save a few dollars and stop paying for redundancy in a system that's designed to have redundancy built into it.

Why am I not surprised that this was caused by Comcast? [/sarcasm]
EDIT: Oh, and I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall in the appropriate place when that happened.
