Couldn’t they just move .io to a different category?
Specifically the issue is that two letter TLDs are reserved exclusively for countries/governments. So far only one exception has been made to this rule, .su for the Soviet Union. So another exemption is certainly possible.
- Comment on Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn't? 1 month ago:
In many US rural areas, home internet connections have a monthly cap
And suburban, and urban. I’ve never lived anywhere that didn’t have a cap.
- Comment on Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Team Disbanded After Critically Lauded Platformer Fails to Meet Expectations - Report 1 month ago:
OK but did it really flop or where they expecting it to sell a morbillion units weekly?
Sources say that Ubisoft was expecting The Lost Crown to sell similarly to the biggest Metroidvania’s in the market, with millions of units sold in a relatively short space of time. Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown has sold approximately one million units at the time of writing.

- Comment on How did gravity worked on the Death Star? 4 months ago:
This is just my head canon, but the noise actually comes from speakers on board the ship /in the cockpit
I’m pretty sure this was explicitly addressed in at least one of the pre-Disney novels, and was somewhat entrenched with a part of the fanbase afterward.
- Comment on All jokers fault probably 5 months ago:
Clock King (at least BTAS clock king, the one in the picture) can’t control time.
He did have access to a device in his second appearance that allowed him to control the flow of time, so he had the ability albeit in an indirect fashion.

I’m colour blind and don’t see red very well.
I’m not color blind and almost didn’t see it. This was an okay idea, executed with a terrible choice of colors.

- Comment on These notifications are bundled together for some reason. So if I want to be notified when my subscriptions renew themselves, I have to also be notified of random games going on sale, too. 6 months ago:
I had to specifically mute all of my notifications because I couldn’t find out what app was causing them and it was driving me nuts.
I’ve been doing that for years. I only have a handful of apps with audio notifications, basically the most important ones that need my attention right away. Everything else gets vibrate.
- Comment on I never noticed it was him in X-Men: Apocalypse 6 months ago:
Not sure who he’d play in the Gunniverse - Hector Hammond in Green Lantern?
The casting I didn’t know I needed until I read it.
- Comment on Squirrel with a Gun - Announcement Trailer 7 months ago:
I think this is about it coming out of Early Access?
The developer published this trailer on March 15. Looks like they’ve made a channel for the game specifically and republished it there.

Rail gun hockey sounds entertaining

- Comment on Walter Koenig was bitterly disappointed about his role in Star Trek VI 11 months ago:
What a weird thing to say. I’ve always heard it described as one of the best TOS films and I always found the ending quite an emotional and fitting send-off to the TOS crew.
His feelings might be related to his plan for the sixth film involving the TOS crew being forcibly retired and then slaughtered.

Hey Minnesota diesnt have toes anymore
Technically, the new flag doesn’t come into use for another 5 months or so, assuming the legislature doesn’t stop it.
It does look pretty slick, though.

They’re still making Scream installments… Why?
- Comment on Best of both worlds 1 year ago:
Just buy a TV and don’t connect the wi-fi for the smart capability
Some of these TVs will find an unsecured network within range to connect to, so they can still bombard you with ads.
And (in my experience) they’re still slow as hell. I press “power on” and have to go pour a drink or something while I wait for it to boot up, as if I’m warming up a radio in the 1930s.
- Comment on How did people refer to clockwise movement before the invention of the clock? 1 year ago:
Yes but, how did people know that time went sunwise before the sun?
Back before the solar system was fully formed, it was called “gaswise”.
