I have fond memories of Slashdot’s mod system . Members randomly got 5 mod points to up or down vote sometime . Votes were categorized .And that was it . Then metamods would vote on the quality of the votes. I wrote in the past tense but I guess /dot is still around .

Verisign (NASDAQ: VRSN) today announced a 7% increase in .com prices to take effect on September 1, 2023.

…

Under its agreement with ICANN and the U.S. government, Verisign is allowed to increase prices by 7% per year in the last four years of every six-year contract term. This will be the third hike of this contract term, and the company is expected to increase .com prices to $10.26 in 2024.

Would be nice if ICANN changed the agreement a tad .

The small text is in Catalan (not Spanish). I’m curious how many people learn more than Spanish before going to Spain .

It is bizarre to me that we are living in a time when there is enough climbers for there to be a queue on that mountain.

I don’t know how fast it works. According to their posts (I feel really creepy reading their history), their first round of chemo was started around Dec 23 2022. On Dec 30th they reported that their tumor has shrunken 1/3 since the first round. By Feb 3 of 2023 they had completed three rounds of treatment.

On April 15th they reported that tumor was no longer growing and thus the tumor was beaten.

16 months before this incident, they had another kind of cancer. So it is infuriating that their doctors didn’t run tests till it was almost too late. They state they are Germany, so maybe the doctors there are extra conservative with running test.

I found the OP on reddit . They state that they beat the cancer.

Dsl wasn’t offered in my area until 2012 ish. Up till then I was using crappy 3g wireless dongles or my last 56k modem which had built in ethernet ports (still have that modem just in case). I feel this meme.

The thing about fires is that just a simple turn of the wrist with suffice to open a passage to paradise.
