get_remote_ip_address () ⇒ mixed
Attempts to return the current systems IP public/remote address. May return false on failure.

Notes
This predefined function uses the jsonip.com and api.ipify.org services to attempt to fetch information regarding the public IP address of the computer system. First, the function attempts the jsonip.com service and if it fails to fetch information from there it moves to the api.ipify.org service. If both fail it returns a boolean false.
