Antwan··on Xip.io: Wildcard DNS for everyone
I have something against stupid trends. io is a gcc TLD, shouldn't be polluted just because everybody thinks it's the cool 2014 way to build something hype.

Anyway, out of subject.

Antwan··on Xip.io: Wildcard DNS for everyone
Why not just customizing /etc/hosts then... You guys are relying too much on 3rd party tools without knowing what they do with your data and what they're becoming in the future.

Antwan··on Why is the opt-in toolbar scam still acceptable?

And that's why Win/Google store are full of crap.

Come on, we all started a piece of website/soft/app/gamemaker/whatever trending techno atm when we were 14/15/16.
