minus-squaresemlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoI never said they were. I just said .d means directory in another context
minus-squarewhithom@discuss.onlinelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoWell, a .com is a CP/M binary file introduced in ~1975, whereas the TLD wasn’t introduced until 1985. So, put that in your pipe and smoke it. 😝
minus-squaresemlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoYeah that’s weird too. So would a TLD of .txt or .doc or can you imagine a TLD of .html? They’re all weird just to various degrees. Why would you want .d as a TLD? To me it would just be weird and confusing.
