someone register hiveway.net when it expires and make it a mastodon instance with a bee theme
or just repeatedly create and delete hiveway.net on aws route 53 until you get the correct ns servers for it
i was gonna do it but i realized that i don't have a script to do it and aws has nses in the form of nsXXXX-aws-dnsXX-[random tld] which is way too many bits of entropy to do manually
@bootsy it miiiiight actually still work but not for long
or: email the domain owner and say that you will take it off their hands for the low service fee of them paying you $20
@bootsy also I think you get billed 50 cents every time you create a hosted zone???
route 53 billing, like the rest of AWS, is infinitely confusing
@bootsy I dunno. it might do fractional months but iirc it’s $0.50 per hosted zone per month
@iliana wait really shit
