Written like someone who lives in a sunny place… 😉

Yeah a lot more work needs to be done for all energy.

The trends are the same, I think, but a few decades behind.

Kubernetes storage is the reason I was looking at Minio in the past.

I mean, people in a town I lived in were upset because kids from the next town over were using the public swimming pool. This was in northern Virginia, so not liking people from another village anywhere in the world hardly seems strange.

There’s a bit about those on the Wikipedia:

There used to be restrictions on a hostname.

These had to start with and end with a letter or number, and have only letters, numbers, or a dash. (I heard that originally hostnames had to start with a letter, but 3M got that changed. This might be an urban legend.)

That’s a common restriction for a name still.

Things get funky when you want non-ASCII names - like if you want a cyrillic or Greek name - as registries often limit the allowed characters to limit “isomorphic attacks”. That’s where you use symbols that look the same to trick people into thinking they’re going to another site, like using a 0 instead of an O, or a l instead of an I.

None of this will apply to the XYZ domains that give you a number.

One other issue that might impact you is if you try to connect using only a numeric name. Some tools will interpret such a name as an IPv4 address. Easily solved by using the full name, but weird and confusing if it happens to you unexpectedly. 😅

I believe that the prosecution cannot call witnesses not on the list, but that the defense has more leeway?

Seems like someone already did this:

Maybe upgrading will fix it?

Self reply as a follow up.

I use nom.es for DNS experimentation. These are like $3 a year or so, and work fine.

I miss DotTK, which was dodgy and didn’t support DNSSEC, but was actually free. 😅

I would not expect any issues.

From the point of view of DNS, a name is a name.

You can never tell what weird restrictions any given software is going to place on you (there were a lot of forms that did not like TLD with more than 4 characters, 20 years ago or so). But it’s only $1, so worth experimenting, IMHO.

Please let us know if there are problems!

So if I went to see Trump talk in a crowd he’d say that he was resigning then turning himself in for his many crimes and would be issuing a full confession?

It’s tradition:

Imagine how they must feel in Iran. 😞

All I do:

• Run updates daily
• Disable password logins
• Run sshguard
• Daily backups to a cloud and off-site host

I think that’s it. I have my host exposed to the Internet. As far as I know, it’s fine.

BTW, sshguard is for the IMAP and SMTP that run on the host, which do allow password logins. But it helps reduce load from brute force attacks on port 22 (which are pointless anyway).

I’m much more worried about my son installing dodgy Minecraft mods, or my wife installing another app that she saw on TikTok. I really should put them each on a separate VLAN…

The 17th Amendement requires the direct election of Senators. Blue state accept red states’ votes for those.

If you’re going to make an argument based on bad faith of states, then the US basically ceases to exist as a republic, regardless of whether you have the compact.

I think maybe you misunderstood the compact.

I’m your example, the states who signed the compact would all put their votes to candidate Y, assuming they had more popular votes in all states.

It’s not “join us or be punished”, it’s “we will implement the will of the majority, not matter what”.

Supreme Court: “Not like that.”

Nobody gets disenfranchised. Rather this compact enables the radical idea of “one person, one vote”.

It’s not completely pseudo-science, as there are a lot of correlations with things like academic success or job performance:
