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 .
I actually didn’t care when there was an ad in the beginning of the video or what not. It was when I had to start watching multiple ads in the middle of a 10 minute video as well. Like come on, not even broadcast TV is that annoying.
How is it fraud ?
Well heck, that looks like me. I was thinking about running back to Fidonet.
Probably not alot of secrets about that aircraft left . The Russians probably got a good look at the one that was shot down in 1999.
