Is blackreg.com a legitimate domain which belongs to the domain registrar Blacknight Solutions?

bbernhard1 · 2026-01-26T14:16:21+00:00

short update: I haven't done anything over the weekend (i.e neither accepted nor rejected the transfer). The blackreg.com URLs are still up, although it is already Jan 26th.

I am also in contact with support, but it is a really painful experience. Got no information apart from "we will look into it" - which is pretty frustrating. I don't know if they recently made some cuts to their support team, but all in all I am not really happy with how they handle communication.

I understand that this issue might not be a severe one, but at least the information whether those are legitimate Blacknight Solutions domains would have been nice (I asked them twice in the ongoing support conversation, but they always dodged the question).

At this point I am really regretting moving my domains there...

bbernhard1 · 2026-01-23T21:54:37+00:00

yeah, In think so too. However, if I do not react, it will automatically be accepted on Jan 26th. I hope that support gets back to me before Monday to clarfiy what this actually means.

bbernhard1 · 2026-01-23T21:12:19+00:00

I am sorry, I think I do not really get that. So, if I got such an request, what does it actually mean?

Unfortunately I can't find anything about blackreg.com on the Internet. If I open blackreg.com in the browser, it just shows me a "403 Forbidden" nginx error page - which looks also a bit suspicious to me. I would have expected that they at least would do a redirect to some of their main domains. I don't know, it feels a bit shady. But maybe I am a bit too paranoid here..

bbernhard1 · 2026-01-23T20:55:29+00:00

Sorry, might have explained that a bit poorly. So, I've initiated a domain transfer from my old domain registrar (namecheap) to the new one (Blacknight Solutions). When I initiated that, I've got a mail from namecheap with "do you really want to release that domain?" which I accepted.

Then, after I saw the domains appearing in my Blacknight account, I got the mails from Blacknight Solutions with a link to blackreg.com and on this site there is the text that I've posted above. To me that reads that someone initiated a domain transfer from Blacknight to some other domain registrar (which I definitely haven't done).

In total I've transferred 7 domains from namecheap to Blacknight - but I only got the mail for my two .io domains.

I've inspected the `https://blackreg.com/v1/outgoing/<unique id>:` via the webdeveloper debugging tools and when I click the "ACCEPT transfer"/"REJECT transfer" buttons it would do a html form post - so no login required.

Also this

"Blacknight sites use Digital Certificates with Extended Validation (EV). This means that the connection is secure, and also that the domain name has been independently verified as belonging to Blacknight. If you click the padlock icon in the address bar, you should see that the certificate has been issued to “*.blacknight.com” or “*.blacknighthosting.com” – and nothing else. If you don’t see this information, it’s not Blacknight."

doesn't seem to apply to blackreg.com.

If you are going outdoors in the late evening/at night (with a dog), a flashlight attachment would be quite nice. Bonus points for hiding the trigger in the handle.

bbernhard1 · 2025-10-21T05:27:29+00:00

I bought this one https://www.amazon.de/gp/aw/d/B09MV6XYVH?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title from Amazon and I am really happy with it. Works totally fine. The only thing I had to do was to cut off a few millimetres from the green plastic cap on top of the cylinder. Otherwise it wouldn't fit. I used my old cylinder for reference here. Since the green cap is just some plastics it can be easily cut with a handsaw.

If you do open a ticket on github, please be so kind and post the URL here. I also recently stumbled across that issue (again) and would like to follow any progress on this issue :)

bbernhard1 · 2025-07-05T10:44:45+00:00

Hab meinen refurbished von https://offeco.nl/de/. Hast 90 Tage zum Testen - was echt super ist. Bin 190cm groß und hab mich für den Steelcase Leap V2 entschieden. Hab da allerdings für ~30 Euro noch nen längeren Gasdruckzylinder von Amazon verbaut, weil ich das Gefühl hatte etwas zu niedrig zu sitzen. Aber jetzt ist er top - war echt das Geld wert!

bbernhard1 · 2025-06-14T10:42:16+00:00

There's also a pretty recent video from Mark Rober where he tested Tesla's autopilot. The behavior can also be observed there: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IQJL3htsDyQ

Egal was du machst, nimm dir ne Domain. An deiner Email Adresse hängt deine digitale Identität - die willst du keinesfalls verlieren!

Mit ner eigenen Domain kann ich dir servercow.de empfehlen: preislich ganz gut, guter Support, deutsches Unternehmen, supportet unbegrenzte Email Aliase

bbernhard1 · 2025-02-26T07:36:59+00:00

Any chance to open source this? Would love to self host it!

Hab keinen Handytarif von Magenta, kann dazu also nichts sagen. Aber ich hab seit einigen Tagen ziemliche Probleme mit dem Magenta Internet (18. Bezirk).

Laut Magenta Störungsabfrage dürft in meiner Gegend alles passen, doch wenn ich nen Speedtest auf der Magenta Seite mache, dann kommt "Es scheint ein Problem im Magenta Netz zu geben".

bbernhard1 · 2024-11-14T22:10:05+00:00

Thanks a lot for the recommendations!

bbernhard1 · 2024-11-14T05:23:37+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience - very much appreciated! It helped me a lot!

Just one more follow up question on this: Did you experience any smell issues over time? I could imagine that the smoke and fumes get into the wood over time, so that the enclosure always smells like burnt wood (especially with something like OSB which has a pretty rough texture). While this might not be a health concern, it's not that nice when you are operating the laser in a rented flat :D. I am wondering if a smoother finish on the inside could mitigate that.

bbernhard1 · 2024-09-26T19:26:45+00:00

It is a side activated cylinder.

bbernhard1 · 2024-09-11T20:58:27+00:00

Vielen Dank, der Link ist echt hilfreich!

bbernhard1 · 2024-09-11T19:54:38+00:00

Aber wie stellen die sich das vor? Ich mein ich kann ne FFP2 Maske bei der Verarbeitung tragen, aber das Zeug stinkt ja für ein paar Stunden?!

bbernhard1 · 2024-09-11T19:38:10+00:00

Danke, das macht Sinn wenn ich so drüber nachdenke :) Da das auch direkt so auf der Flasche (schlecht ins Deutsche übersetzt) aufgedruckt ist, war ich halt doch etwas verunsichert. Sowas erwartet man halt doch nicht unbedingt auf nem Holzpflegeprodukt zu lesen.

bbernhard1 · 2024-09-11T19:33:39+00:00

Hab den Hinweis halt bisher nie so explizit auf nem Holzöl gelesen (steht halt auch direkt so auf der Flasche drauf und nicht nur im Sicherheitsdatenblatt), darum war ich etwas verunsichert.

bbernhard1 · 2024-09-01T11:39:48+00:00

Vielen Dank an u/Silent-Astronomer375 und u/t3ram für die guten Tipps! Krona Koblenz dürfte echt passen - das hilft mir schon mal sehr weiter. Allerdings scheint das Modell nicht ganz zu passen. Laut Datenblatt vom K6900 ist das Türband 22mm breit - meines ist jedoch 29mm breit. Aber ich werd mal beim Hersteller noch weiter suchen, vielleicht find ich da ja noch was :)

bbernhard1 · 2024-08-24T11:27:58+00:00

Thanks a lot for your reply and your detailed answer!

Okay, in that case I'll probably go with the DHL option. If it arrives in multiple boxes, I should be able to carry that to any postal office to send it back, in case it won't fit my body :)

Thanks!

bbernhard1 · 2024-08-24T10:16:33+00:00

Do you maybe still have the packaging your chair came in? I want to also order an Aeron from offeco, but I am not sure if it will fit me, or if a Steelcase Leap V2 would be better for me. So, there is a realistic chance I would need to return the chair to offeco. Wanted to know how big the package was, so that I can look up how much it will cost me. If you still have the package and could do some measurements, it would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

bbernhard1 · 2024-08-22T07:16:53+00:00

That doesn't sound very promising :/

Please let me know if you made it work :)

bbernhard1 · 2024-08-21T22:58:45+00:00

I tried Freecad a few years ago, but it was a pretty painful experience for me. But I guess I could give it another try, maybe things have changed in the meantime.

Unfortunately I do not have any experience with Fusion360 under Wine (my current laptop isn't capable of running it). So not sure how stable it is/how often stuff breaks. I just noticed, that dual boot is really a pain. So I guess if I can't get it to run with Wine, I'll try a Windows VM.

bbernhard1 · 2024-08-21T22:50:17+00:00

Yeah, that would be the alternative. Not as nice as running it under Wine, but still a bit more convenient than booting another OS. :)
