@5pike IIRC One or two Belgian cities(.gent and .antwerpen I think) requested one, and Flanders(.vlaanderen), because nothing tells your population so much of a "fuck you, we're gonna waste money on useless TLD's and then go loan some more" then doing just that.

TZHX

Yeh, but the cost of running half a dozen nameservers on a TLD that very few people are ever likely going to want on some cheap debian vm's is going to be tiny, surely?

5pike

@Arperum Same here. I guess almost every major city applied for a gtld

Mhhh...Seems like application for new GTLD closed last year in April.

Arperum

@5pike I think it's stupid. So what was the website of this firm again? firm.be? no. where is the firm located? Gent? let's try firm.gent. no? firm.vlaanderen maybe? no. for some stupid reason (HQ is in atnwerp or something) it is firm.antwerpen.

5pike

@Arperum The new GTLD are just a way to get some "quick" money.

Arperum

I would quit my search after firm.gent at the latest. And I would declare them stupid.

5pike

10:09

@Arperum If a company doesn't have a .com, .net, .org or their country code tld, then they are stupid.

Arperum

And if possible go shop somewhere else.

5pike

Nobody is going to use amazon.shop

Or ebay.bid

Arperum

@5pike I'm pretty sure one of our clients has all of these...

@5pike or even worse: youtube.baby

5pike

@Arperum I know that many of ours have. .com is the most valuable

Arperum

@5pike We have ~300 .com en .eu domains, and ~1.5-2k .be domains registered

5pike

The hell? There is a .ooo gtld?

Arperum

@5pike That one is for things like spooky.ooo or ghost.ooo

theater.boo would be nice

Arperum

@fredley No.grumpyCat

fredley

@Arperum grumpycat.no is a valid domain

Arperum

@fredley I am aware of that.

So I thought I've seen terrible things in code. Now I know better, this project is downright terrible.

fredley

It's available. I could get it for $20. Very tempt.

Arperum

10:30

It's made by an intern a couple years ago.

@fredley Why am I not surprised? How many domains do you have by now?

I'm surprised it's still available though.

fredley

10:48

@Arperum Can't register, need to be a Norway

Arperum

@fredley That might explain it.

5pike

@fredley Mhh... I bet there are registries that provide a trustee.

Arperum

Isn't @Blem from Norway? He could do it in that case.

Q: Why do L8 agents attack portals but then do not claim it

I have noticed that some agents (mostly L8) will attack my portals but then they leave them unclaimed. Is this some kind of strategy or do they run out of XM? This has happened many times so the latter is unlikely.

Unpopular opinion

Sterno

@fredley People can watch and like whatever they want. I'm totally cool with that! I'm just not sure why they feel like they need to share it with me constantly.

While it is natural to share your likes and interests with others, it's a little unnatural to keep doing so after the other party or parties have expressed no interest.

@Sterno Like sloths!

Sterno

@OrigamiRobot Indeed!

I actually stopped posting sloth photos once I understood they actually bothered you and you weren't just joking around.

Which, granted, took a little longer than it probably should have.

@Sterno why are sloths interesting? do they run amok where you live?

Sterno

@Alex No. @OrigamiRobot hates them.

that like to stand exactly where I'm about to stand

OrigamiRobot

Sounds like a cat.

kalina

fortunately they stay away from me most of the time

but whenever I've got food they're just THERE

5pike

@kalina because they know

@kalina They've been stepped on one too many times?

I have a deaf cat. When someone is in the kitchen - she knows.

JUST FUCKING THERE

I just rolled my chair back, hit a dog

I turned around and the other one is JUST THERE

pulling the same big watery eye'd face I pull whenever I want something

fire is going to be involved

@5pike grrr, if they don't sense me walking into the kitchen they both come charging in the second something rustles

5pike

@kalina Pets have magic abilities. They don't sense anything - they just KNOW

OrigamiRobot

13:03

I hate dogs that constantly beg for food.

5pike

I can't imagine that my deaf cat can smell the kitchen door opening/closing.

kalina

and don't even say the word "walk"

otherwise they go batshit crazy

Arperum

@OrigamiRobot It's just a matter of training. The dog my parents had until two weeks ago begged always begged for food, except if I was the only person eating, then he waited a couple meters away.

@kalina Good for you they can't read. Or you would have two batshit crazy rat-dogs around you now.

OrigamiRobot

@Arperum I know. I don't blame the dog. I blame the owners who don't teach their dogs how to behave.

Arperum

@OrigamiRobot It's possible to learn them to behave even after having the bad habit, until there is someone else who allows it even for a second.

@OrigamiRobot Thus far, that's the main drawback I've seen of getting older. Sure, eventually I'll be old enough that health problems and whatnot are the issue, but right now it's just "Young people are so goddamned annoying and sure that they're right about everything"

Granted, older people are too. They're just less annoying about it.

@Sterno I've felt that way since I was a teenager.
