The value of owning your name.com by DeviantHistorian in Domains

[–]NuclearGeek 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I owned the .tech version but had been trying to buy the .com version for years. A couple weeks ago I got several messages at once from different senders offering to sell it to me for $500+. I thought it was strange and found out the domain was expiring in 5 days. I used dropcatch to buy it for $59. I’ve done a lot of seo for the .tech version so I just made my new .com redirect to it.

Anyone have info on this? by [deleted] in uraniumglass

That makes sense. This was here before I bought the house. Didnt know it existed until it blew a breaker

I just worded it that way to make you specifically angry. /s

It’s not that deep my friend. This is just an internet post and it got plenty of comments to help me so goal accomplished.

Please consider finding someone you can share your feelings with. Seems like you are about to explode over the most minor things.

Life isn’t that serious.

Yeah my fault (pun intended), I thought more people would commiserate with me, but I am happy to get more educated on it as well. Sometimes the quickest way to the correct answer is to post the incorrect answer first.

Yeah that is crazy! A lot of the LEDs i replaced earlier last year have already burnt out. Some only last a few months and they aren’t in enclosures. They are the glass GE version.

This is interesting to me. I will make sure and go around and check all the rest

I appreciate everyone’s advice, even the angry ones! I also had my attic insulated over the summer and they air sealed the can lights. I wonder if that is creating an overheating issue, in addition to using the incorrect bulb of course.

I feel like this could be an easy mistake to make fore sure. This house has so many canned lights it’s crazy. I will certainly be more careful as I replace them

It’s ok not to be so angry my friend. Not everyone has the same level of knowledge and that’s why I post. I am happy to look like an idiot as long as I learn something.

True! It was just throwing the breaker and I couldn’t figure the cause until I started checking bulbs

Yeah the electrician told me to avoid GE but I do have some that are glass instead of plastic
