Use something like Bitwarden, and record your master password and/or backup codes in an envelope.

Many DNS providers offer privacy options. They’ll put their own information in the WHOIS database and forward relevant stuff to you.

It’s possible to transfer a domain name from one DNS provider to another, similar to phone numbers. So stealing a domain name is as simple as initiating that transfer procedure. Many providers have a “lock” option (again, similar to phone numbers) to avoid these issues, but they still happen.

Of course you can challenge them legally, but you’re likely to end up in a costly legal battle. And if you’re a company who cares about their brand image, you’re more likely to pay the ransom (which is probably less than the legal fees anyways) and get it back quickly.

So yeah, if you don’t have legit info, you shouldn’t rely on it too much.

If you’re actually interested in a domain name while remaining anonymous, you’d want to get a subdomain instead. Try something like No-IP, which doesn’t legally require all your personal info.

Passenger: “Wow, this robotaxi ride is heavenly!”

St. Peter: “Uh, yeah, about that…”

No, carpybara is the capybara equivalent of a mermaid. The word you’re looking for is “capybus.”

Bold of you to assume Elon’s taxis will make it anywhere.

Can confirm. Here in Canada, nobody works. We all sit at home and play video games instead. There’s no industry, no shops, no hospitals. Only video games.

I apparently haven’t had that issue. Are you using a @proton.me address, or your own domain? I’ve been using my own domain (set up with all the tricks they tell you to use) and it seems to go through without issue.

Kirby Superstar (SNES) is great for this, I play it with my 5-year-old. The second player plays as the “helper” character, and when they die, Kirby can create them again. It effectively plays like a “buddy mode.” That game is also one of my all-time favorites just for what it is, so I’m a bit biased.

Just put it on a USB stick. No install, no commitment. Baby steps.

Yeah I saw that. Not ideal, but there aren’t a ton of games I play that really need that throttle.

That looks super cool, but unfortunately I can’t spare CAD$483 for it :(

8bitdo controllers are great, I have the SN30 Pro. But the 2C Ultimate doesn’t have that right joystick in the position I’m looking for.

Dang, this is definitely the winner. I’m a fan of Nintendo’s controllers, but never had a WiiU so didn’t realize they were in that configuration. Thanks!

Weirdly, it seems like the only non-modular part are the buttons on the right side. You can swap out the right stick for other things (like additional buttons), but you can’t put a stick up top. A bit above my price range, but a super cool idea.

Nope, thumbs on the joysticks and fingers on the triggers, with the thumbs leaving the joysticks if the buttons are needed. Same way I use any other controller, but I find the upper positioning of the joystick to be more comfortable and intuitive for FPS games.

Oh dang, I’m actually totally into that. Thanks!

I’ve had good experiences with 8bitdo. There’s this one that looks more reminiscent of a SNES controller, but has the layout you’re looking for.
