  • Endless Sky -- open-source space game. I actually contributed to it back in the day; a date format option and a full-blown storyline about an author. Unfortunately the storyline is in development hell cause I lost motivation to work on it.
  • OpenTTD -- really awesome, with NewGRFs and mods you can have a somewhat "realistic" rail experience (as in, using actual real-life trains. Obviously a pixel game isn't the most "realistic" with graphics)
  • Mindustry
  • Pioneer Space Sim

I don't have anything hosted just yet, but when I do, I'll look into a reverse proxy

And I don't check my email every single day. Scary.

Nitter ended up getting their domain back though.. However, the good ending doesn't always happen.

Thankfully I don't have anything "controversial" on my website.

That's crazy. 90% of views from a single person. How often does this happen usually?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Just basic information about myself and maybe a thing or two I've done on the Internet.

Someday if I get the time or the server resources, I'd add subdomains to it to host other stuff, for example "lemmy.example.com", while "example.com" would just be the basic information, and probably a directory to all the other subdomain stuff.

 

If someone's post is deleted, and the modlogs don't specify who performed the action (instead it is a generic name like "admin"), how can the user discuss that deletion if they have a rationale for why it should not have been deleted?

Actually, you need to go build a time travel machine and recreate the Internet and all its infastructure from scratch if you want to have true ownership of your domain. Or you know, just reinvent the Internet in a premodern society or something, idk.

Were you able to take back your domain using Porkbun, or did you have to use a completely different one?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Yeah, I'm on the .ph top-level domain, one of the more expensive ones. I blame the price on the registrar, not Njalla.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Did Njalla keep the domain forever or did they not renew it such that you could simply go straight to the registrar to take it back?

Additionally, what did you do exactly with the domain that may have motivated Njalla to just.. do such a thing?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not many results for Njalla there, just someone saying they have a few of them through Njalla but offering no thoughts of the service

 

For those unaware, Njalla is an anonymous domain registrar though I'm hoping many of you already know.

What are your thoughts on Njalla? I've got a domain with them already and renewal is coming up this August, but I'm kinda feeling doubt with their Trustpilot reviews.

  1. Is Trustpilot even accurate?
  2. Who are all those one-star reviewers?
  3. Is Njalla a scam? Has anyone here had good experiences with them?

The website there is just my personal website. There's not much "shady" stuff on it (lemuria.ph).

If 10,000 people work one hour in one day, then that day still had 10,000 hours worked even if a day is only 24 hours. Same with CPUs, many of them run on more than just one core.

Pridyider, the Filipino movie about a haunted fridge. Haven't been able to find a copy of it in years unfortunately.

 

The dormant person feeling is a feeling I find myself having on the Internet often. Casually browsing the Internet, I find myself reading through threads and websites that don't look like they've been updated since 2009, or 2010, or ${currentYear - 10}. Profiles that haven't posted in so long either.

When I see just how long ago their last activity was, it gives me the feeling, which I can only describe as a mix of concern, curiosity, and empathy. In my head, I go "I wonder how they are doing now", and "are they alive and well?". Sometimes I find myself "investigating" them or looking them up to see if they are still alive just so I can satiate this feeling of mine.

Do other people experience the dormant person feeling too? Is it wrong to have such a feeling? But hey, if I feel the dormant person feeling, it does show that I do have empathy for strangers, a good quality, I suppose.

 

Like weird place names on Google Maps, as an example.

 

I have started listening to random American city council meetings lately for white noise. Since they're all bureaucratic-flavored boredom anyway.

Just leave a comment here so that Lemmy shows me the "appoint as mod" button.
