Libya didn't reclaim anything from ICANN -- ICANN didn't have anything of Libya's.

Did you read the article or the white paper it references? It mostly talks about converting/in-filling strip malls and none of the examples given suggest using the existing buildings without modification.

> 2 companies? The industry is obviously more than 2 companies. Boeing, Airbus, Embraer, Bombardier, and likely in the future, Comac, Mitsubishi, and UAC. This is ignoring the (primarily) civil aviation companies, military manufacturers

Wrong on both. There are 13 root servers (operated by 12 different organizations). You don't have to have zone cuts at each dot.

Browser vendors weren't interested. They believed the additional latency of DNS lookups would impact customer conversion rates. DANE is catching on in the email world.

I'm glad there are so many more /16s in IPv6 than there were in IPv4. (/s for the binary impaired)

As I read it, DNSSEC signature expiry was what triggered people noticing the root data was stale. That would seem to be a somewhat positive outcome.

Someone (including the President of the US) asserting that any vaccine is 100% effective and will prevent someone from "getting infected at all" simply means that individual does not understand how vaccines and infectious diseases

While I understand this position (i.e., https://xkcd.com/386/ ), it (along with an unholy union of the Internet, confirmation bias, pay-per-click, and echo chambers) appears to have contributed to an explosion in realit

I'm curious: as you appear to be talking about COVID vaccines, which vaccine do you believe was "ineffective (though apparently safe)", given there are a number of vaccines that were developed in different countries using dif

I suspect this is a different problem, i.e., people outside of .MIL trying to send email into .MIL and mistyping the TLD. If so, there's not a whole lot DOD can do since the email is originating outside of DOD controlled systems.

Um. No. You can't blame IANA for this. See: https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2090149 Key paragraph: "The OpenBSD team, led as always by their Glorious Leader (their words, not mine), decided that a RAND licens

Bill Clinton won the plurality of the popular vote in 1992 and 1996. The Electoral system is broken not because "my party lost" but because it means the value of a person's vote depends on where you vote. If the Republicans w

IIRC, the real problem with fast breeder reactors isn't (only) their cost, rather it's that they produce (weapons grade) plutonium which presents a nuclear proliferation risk. The concept has been around since the 60s and there h

That list is for generic top-level domains. .IO is, like all two-letter TLDs, a country code TLD. Country code TLDs are allocated according to ISO-3166 two-letter codes. IO is the ISO-3166 code for British Indian Ocean Territory.

Seems to me that anything that starts out with "bombshell" is clickbait and almost certainly wildly biased and unreliable.
