gollark: If anyone is interested I could run `*.kst.osmarks.net` or something.
gollark: If you resolve certain subdomains of d.osmarks.net with a hostname bit including some base32-encoded data, it will send a message in an IRC channel on APIONET.
gollark: I actually *do* run a custom DNS server which does DNS→IRC bridging (unidirectionally).
gollark: 4KST.
gollark: I wrote minimum-viable server code for this. I don't run it.
