HTTP will follow 301/302 redirects until it hits 200., _(*10)

NOTE: It's not recommended to use this in production as a fallback detect, as a slow loading URL will block your page from loading. This is mainly for local development use where a live dev server hosting your assets may or may not be running. Consider using a javascript fallback solution, like Fallback.js in production., _(*11)
