I have a .horse domain - I tried every permutation horse puns and in-jokes (my.lovely.horse, etc) but they were all taken by squatters or reserved for stupid prices.

Eventually I settled for sheep.horse, which is easy to remember but not much else.



When I was first building m.reddit.com, I put it under `reddit.horse`, mostly because I found it hilarious that `.horse` existed.


So disappointed that when I visit reddit.horse now it doesn't show a badly photoshopped picture of Snoo riding a horse...


I'm glad that someone snagged hoarse.horse and is doing more with it than I would have.

not.horse is available, too, if someone wants to tell that joke via a TLD.

And of course, bad.horse is exactly what you expect it to be.


Don't forget to traceroute bad.horse.

What a waste of precious ipv4 addresses! :)


Hilarious.

Even more geek than setting up joke SSIDs for your neighbours to enjoy.


NSA SurvVan 83/B1-GER


That made my afternoon. Thank you.


Oh my. That is commitment. I love it. Thanks for pointing this out!


I am very disappointed that https://correct.horse/ does not have a strong password generator on it.


Let's also note that dead.horse exists, though I'm ambivalent as to whether it's as good as bad.horse.


When are people going to stop mentioning that dead.horse?


The Northernmost part of the Internet reachable by road.


I bought myey.es (Spain TLD) a while back so I have look@myey.es. I'm a hobby photographer, thought I'd use it.

Never did. If there are any photogs here who want it, let me know.


Hello! :)


Email me - my name is John Noble and my email address is:

Hi. Sorry for the late reply. You want? Can't figure out if I can PM here on HN...


Nice! I bought jungle.horse and put my Donald Trump text to speech engine there. These domains are so ridiculous.


I recently registered butt.chat. $30.
