The “.zip” TLD isn’t itself a security risk, but it should never have been created in the first place due to the overlap with .zip files.
Understanding the context of why the .zip TLD is a bad idea, you should be questioning the general competence of a web admin that would intentionally purchase and operate a .zip website. It’s such an obvious and avoidable problem that you have to wonder what other obvious problems they are failing to avoid.

- Comment on Microsoft's latest Windows 11 24H2 update breaks SSDs/HDDs, may corrupt data 3 days ago:
Well yeah, like the article I linked says:
It has now been nearly eight years since the “experimental” tag was removed, but many of btrfs’ age-old problems remain unaddressed and effectively unchanged. So, we’ll repeat this once more: as a single-disk filesystem, btrfs has been stable and for the most part performant for years. But the deeper you get into the new features btrfs offers, the shakier the ground you walk on—that’s what we’re focusing on today.
So if you’re just using it for your PC hard drive you’re probably fine. The problem is that BTRFS is intended to provide similar features to RAID and ZFS, but that’s where it starts failing.

Make injections and decapitation quicker and easier with Braintree Scientific’s DecapiCones. Tapered plastic film tubes provide quick and easy restraint of rats, mice, and other small animals. I.P. injections can be made directly through the film! DecapiCones restrain post-decapitation kicking and prevent personal contact with feces or urine. A unique dispenser holds DecapiCones open and ready for use. Simply hold the DecapiCone in one hand and introduce the animal with the other. Animals enter readily, heading for the breathing hole at the small end. Roll and squeeze the large end closed. They may be used repeatedly for injections and simply discarded when soiled. For decapitation, hold at the rear and insert the small end into the decapitator.
They come in quantities of 200, in handy pre-loaded dispensers.
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 1 week ago:
Twenty-two years later and still nothing really compares. I’ve played it through 5… 6?.. times and the characters still feel compelling.
I miss Westwood… everyone that came after only imitated their work, and while some have made improvements to the gameplay, none have really accomplished the same level of storytelling in the RTS genre.
Kind of a perfect game, one that keeps you coming back again and again.

- Comment on Black Holes 1 week ago:
Hmm, but what if the Earth has not been destroyed by a singularity yet?
We are at the center of what we can observe, obviously, but assuming that everything (including what we can not observe) is within the event horizon of a singularity then what we can observe may all be experiencing the same (relative) spacetime curvature and is apparently “expanding” because it is accelerating as it falls deeper into the singularity.
I’m kind of thinking of the classic spacetime expansion demo of dots on the surface of a balloon, extended into 3(+?) dimensions… the singularity (the balloon) is expanding as we (and everything else) are drawn further into it, resulting in the objects we can see (the observable universe) appearing to accelerate away from us. The actual center of the singularity is so far away that we can’t observe it, and the acceleration appears (locally) uniform to us in the same way that the surface of an infinite-radius sphere would appear flat.
There’s probably some obvious physics reason this doesn’t work in reality, but I don’t know what it is.

Ah yes, every time someone points out how bad Mao was as an authoritarian dictator, that’s “piling on”, even when it’s only one person.
What does Nanjing have to do with a comment about Mao?
How are “Western nations” relevant to this conversation at all?
I hope you stretch before you jump into these mental gymnastics, you might strain something.
- Comment on Black Holes 2 weeks ago:
There’s not a singularity at the center of our observable universe, though.
Well, er, how would you know?
Perhaps the space inside the event horizon is so large, and the distance to the singularity so great, that the expansion we observe from our reference point appears uniform.

Explosions are combustion.
And really we’re just talking about oxidation. If oxidation works (which it must, because the characters are breathing) then chemically-propelled projectiles must also work.
- Comment on Anon learns a new spell 2 weeks ago:
Combustion is very old technology. Putting it inside a different machine (e.g. a gun or a car engine) doesn’t change the chemistry. If you want to get right down to it, we’re just talking about oxidation - which means that in any sort of world where rapid oxidation doesn’t work (i.e. explosives), your lungs also don’t work because you need that oxygen bonding with the iron in your hemoglobin or you die.
If you can light a fire, you can make an explosion. If you can make an explosion, you can use it to launch a projectile.
There’s no world in which fire exists but guns are impossible. Even if you don’t have the metalworking sophistication for a modern gun, you could still make a Chinese-style gunpowder rocket.
- Comment on Anon learns a new spell 2 weeks ago:
Don’t they drive a car? and ride a train? so combustion works…
