still trying to get pant.su but it gets renewed every time despite serving nothing publicly :<

I was disappointed to find that http://kat.su/ has nothing to do with curry.

Well, katsu refers to a pork cutlet, which can be used with other dishes than curry. Katsudon is a pork cutlet on top of donburi, for example.

If anyone is interested, registering a domain is $29.99/year and requires the submission of an identity document (passport, driver's license, etc).

Curious to know, but where can I buy one, and what registrars offer .su? Seems entirely absent in my usual haunt where I go to get obscure TLDs: https://www.ovh.co.uk/domains/prices/ There is however the following you can get on OVH which are similar: .sucks .supplies .supply .support .surgery

gandi.net offers them, though they're significantly more expensive than what has been mentioned in this thread already.

.int is more exclusive. .gov is restricted to US government, but consider the immense sprawl that is the US federal government, and then consider that US state and US local governments are allowed in the club too, and it doesn't look so exclusive any more .mil is restricted to the US military, but that is a gargantuan entity with countless agencies and bases and divisions and whatnot all of whom seem to want to have…

Dot int is basically non-existent compared to mil and gov. Also being attached to the UN makes it uncool instantly.

nato.int is the coolest domain in the world for me.

Russian flag-carrier Aeroflot also has SU IATA code.

And the hammer and sickle logo. For Soviet-nostalgia buffs looking for a domain, although most obvious choices like CCCP, KGB, Lenin, Stalin and even Gorbachev and perestroika are registered under .su, GLASNOST.SU is available.

What about non-ASCII? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internationalized_domain_name

Huh, well that's my new thing I've learned today. I only ever heard it in conjunction with curry-type things (katsu chicken, which was always served with curry, for instance).

It is also the first ever .int domain, and indeed the original motivation for creating .int (to replace the short lived .nato)

Katsu is just a japonization of the word Cuts. Chicken Katsu = Chicken Cuts
