As surprising as it is, there are days in which I don’t get any email (other than SPAM, which gets filtered away out of my sight). Add to that the fact that I was horribly busy yesterday, and I suppose it’s understandable why I didn’t notice until just now…
Looks like GoDaddy decided to reset the nameservers on my doesnthaveone.com domain to one of their defaults when I added it to my CashParking service. They didn’t TELL me they were going to reset the name servers, and DID tell me to go in and change them to point to their two special nameservers.
So for the past 48 hours, I’ve gotten no email on my primary account. Lovely.
Fuck GoDaddy…
UPDATE: I just added another domain, and got the following message:
Note: domains managed through GoDaddy will have their name servers updated automatically.
Select OK to continue, or Cancel and remove domains you do not wish to change.
Looks like I’m not the only one who’s bitched about this… Now they warn you.
Amazing Lightning Show
No, I don’t have pictures. Instead I have a rant…
The most assinine thing I’ve ever seen - lightning knocked out a traffic light here in town… almost. Three directions were red, the fourth was solid green. Eventually everyone realizes it’s red, but since it’s only 3 directions, you can’t treat it as a 4 way stop very effectively. Instead, the people trying to cross or turn across the green side are stuck risking their lives pulling out in front of traffic in heavy rain, while the people in the lane opposite the green light sit waiting for you, only to give up as soon as there’s an opening and run the light, leaving you stuck to repeat the process… To make matters worse, the people behind those people who get fed up and run the light, instead of waiting… run it too. 3, 4, 5, 10 cars pass. Then another 5, including a city cop… Then another 3 or 4, before someone finally stops to let you try once more to turn.
What the fuck is that? Can you tell me, please? And it’d have been really nice if the cop had stopped and tried to manually flip the light (control box is right there, fella), or stopped to direct traffic like a real civil servant. Does he? Of course not, it’s raining… That’s the postal service, buddy. Instead, he’ll just run the light with the mass of other cars doing it, rather than treating it as the 4-way stop it’s supposed to be. Hey, who tickets cops? God knows if it’d been me running the light, he’d have stopped me in the rain to scold me… to the tune of $400, I’m sure.
Here’s to the US Government… broken from the top down.
