gollark: PotatOS for x86 coming soon!
gollark: Those operate their own nameservers which hold the nameservers for bees.com. and apioforms.net. and whatever.
gollark: So the . (root) nameservers list the nameservers for com. and net. and whatever,
gollark: Why are those the "official"/canonical ones? Because the nameserver for the parent domain says the nameserver for its subdomains.
gollark: A nameserver is basically just a server which serves the DNS protocol. This is not very descriptive, yes. But although many things work as DNS servers, nameservers (strictly authoritative nameservers, I think) are ones which serve the "official" records for one domain.
