@jimsalter I&#39;m thinking of grabbing another personal domain. I&#39;m currently using Godaddy for the couple of domains that I already have, but after listening to Ep 299 of 2.5 Admins where you talk about a lot of the issues with Godaddy, (and yeah, I&#39;ve always had a feeling that they were more than a bit sketchy in many ways) who would you use for a casual personal domain these days?

I bought a set of 5 Attiny85 micro controllers and used the Arduino IDE to dump a sketch onto them that makes them into mouse jigglers.. Basically they plug into a USB A port and emulate a mouse. It moves the pointer back and forth one pixel between every 10 and 30 seconds randomly. The movement is nearly undetectable to the naked eye, but it will keep a computer from going into suspend or locking if you give it a lengthy job to do. It&#39;s not my code. I found it here: https://github....
