the only protocol-centric affixes i’ve ever had on my domains were either ‘irc.’ or ‘mail.’ (and for a long time mail.teleri.net had an HTTP interface!). i’ve always thought the http was implied by reachability on port 80/443. www is such a weird anachronism

so weird! like yeah that's what port 80/443 is for!

imagine if we had something like 8192 or so well known services that mapped to specific ports. we could put them in a file and just ship it in the OS. it would be so wild

we simply don't have the technology
