#103If anyone still wants a simple cool TLD .com, try out names with hyphens. They're almost completely unexplored and I personally see no downside (except typing the domain in a mobile keyboard but who types domains anyways).
Curious, are there any sites that you use that have a hyphen in domain? Seems like about ~1% of the top 500 websites use a hyphen in domain.
Penny-arcade comes to mind.
Also brings to mind my first email address, which used an underscore! In my defense, it was a hotmail address created circa 1998, before there were strong norms for such things...

Back in high school, password generation for the students was ((consonant)(vowel)) times 3.
That algorithm alone is enough to end up with drugs for days.

#108I got the domain "niggerbar.com". I think that's not taken for a reason. Maybe it should filter out racial slurs?

It looks to me like it is finding nonsense words that are pronounceable to English speakers and then checking if that nonsense word is available. I assume a linguist programmer could create an algorithm to come up with pronounceable words. Is there a word for a nonsense word that is pronounceable? A potential word?
There's more to it than just pronounceable. e.g. I got tranclitic, mysothelium, gurnt, 1. tran- looks like reanalysis of words that begin with trans-, and we often pronounce the -s with the start of the root word. Clitic is a word in and of itself. 2. myso- is a rare Greek prefix, thelium means nipple. Unfortunately, together it would suggest nipple of dirt. 3. There's a low-scored urbandictionary entry for gurnt, bu…
Markov chains, perhaps?
