gollark: I was looking at getting one of those when replacing my bad free .tk domain (there's nothing really wrong with the TLD beyond the registrar being kind of bad, but their free plan allows my use of it to be randomly cancelled and the DNS service is kind of awful), but I just got osmarks.net instead.

gollark: Anyway, while I don't think any 3-letter .com domains still exist, it turns out you *can* get a lot of [3-character jumble].[2-letter country code for some weird place] domains rather cheaply still.

gollark: According to this random internet website™ com.com is also mildly important because people may accidentally type it a lot.

gollark: I agree, I just never make mistakes.

gollark: I'd expect the people implementing DNS resolvers and such to not break everything too horribly.
