eth0.me is down about archey-osx HOT 6 OPEN

Alternatively, how about using:
ip=$(dig +short myip.opendns.com @resolver1.opendns.com)
in place of:
ip=$(curl -sS eth0.me)

I think opendns.com has been around for a while and, now being a part of Cisco, can be expected to be around for the foreseeable future..

same. output ⇒
% curl: (7) Failed to connect to eth0.me port 80: Operation timed out
% ifconfig: interface eth0(.me) does not exist

from archey-osx.

Suggestion for an alternative site:
IPv4: curl 4.ifcfg.me/ip or curl 4.ipcfg.me/ip
IPv6: curl 6.ifcfg.me/ip or curl 6.ipcfg.me/ip

I switched mine to ifconfig.co

Same problem here, I am using "archey -o" now but I would like to have a working option with IP address shown

from archey-osx.

Also, if the ipfile length is less than 8, maybe just delete it, since the minimum valid ip is 1.1.1.1, which has at least 8 characters in it..

Here are some changes I made to my local copy, to delete an invalid ip cache file and to use dig and myip.opendns.com over curl. Feel free to use it verbatim, if you wish..
