Were you able to take back your domain using Porkbun, or did you have to use a completely different one?
Hi, I’m Lemuria
Were you able to take back your domain using Porkbun, or did you have to use a completely different one?
Yeah, I’m on the .ph top-level domain, one of the more expensive ones. I blame the price on the registrar, not Njalla.
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?
Not many results for Njalla there, just someone saying they have a few of them through Njalla but offering no thoughts of the service
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.
Curiosity, concern, and the hope that the person’s still living a good life.
And you are not annoying me, don’t worry.
Nothing really, all the rabbit holes I’ve went down are all in English or conlangs whose documentation is in English. And for search resources - all you really need is Google or DuckDuckGo, a couple hours, patience, and basic knowledge of OSINT
I’m not really interested in tracking you, lol.
You don’t really meet the criteria - I already know from you replying to this thread and my comments, that you are still well and alive - and determining that is the main goal of an investigation. So it would be redundant.
Who knows, maybe the dictionary is wrong, but I guess it wouldn’t be wrong to extend the meaning of usyoso. Yay for language evolution
That’s just the act of lurking, it doesn’t say anything about the feelings you get while lurking.
I am a Tagalog speaker too (but I had to look usyoso up in the dictionary lol)
I’ve gone on goose chases all over the internet and done “dormancy investigations” of sorts in ways similar to you (though I’m unsure how similar exactly). I have a wiki on my own computer where I store the findings of these investigations alongside other unrelated things.
I’ve spent a lot of time trying to develop roleplay contexts to understand people that make and seek out connections like this or various other ways.
What exactly do you mean? On my “dormancy investigations” I have a rule for myself where I only lurk, read, and dig - I do not try to contact the person, ever. Though before I set this rule for myself - I remember actually reaching out to one of them and got a positive reply but I probably got lucky on that one, not chancing things now.
I struggle most to understand boundaries that other people have. I try not to pry, […]
Yup, I just try to dig through the Wayback Machine or what’s left of the website, to me, trying to contact the person or asking anyone who may be related to the person who the person is, is “prying”.
And I suppose that I just have a nostalgia of the Internet that was. The internet of the early 2000s. I was not alive when the 2000s Internet was at its peak; well not old enough to know how to use a computer let alone even read. So… I don’t really know what else I can say.
I’m a conlanger actually, the dormant person feeling gets its own word in Thiguka (patalara) and Kenahari (second conlang so far).
Awesome, it’s a shame though I’m in 100+ Discord servers lmao
What is the “Cyber Reception Room” you linked?
I’m really big on indie musicians too, can relate. One indie musician I found had their last release in March 2024. YouTube put one of their in my feed from 8 years ago (which made me investigate). I told another indie musician I know about the person and it turns out that they have cancer. They are still alive and battling it, and I really hope they get better soon.
That one time back, from so long ago, when I was less techy than 2024 me, when everytime I opened my old Android phone, the browser would open up a Thai porn site. I went to the applications list on that old phone, and found an empty app with no icon and uninstalled it, and it stopped happening.
Why the hell would one do that for THREE documents? I’d be exfiltrating everything out of there if I were them, if not for that Russian guy’s trial, at least for my curiosity and reading pleasure!
Whoever wrote that malware is definitely going to Brazil.
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.
