Previous job: Windows, because it was a company issued laptop. Plus a lot of the company was built around the MS ecosystem.
Current job: Linux, because I got to keep the perfectly decent Dell laptop when I left. I wanted to make sure I purged everything, so it’s running LMDE now. Plus, there’s not much outlook and teams stuff that I have to use.
I blame Daniel
I realized a few years ago that my GF inadvertently solved this issue for me: She likes registering for anything that provides a discount, so I use her phone number.
“Are you a member?”
“Nope, but my GF probably is…”, and 90% of the time I am correct.

Some surface-level info while I’m waiting for my kids to finish the evening ritual: No need for an extra IP or VPS. You can host them all on the same IP and machine, provided there aren’t any conflicting port assignments.
In the DNS server, you can enter the various subdomains as CNAME pointing to the A record. The server-software is configured with which hostname it should operate as (For example, HTTP/1.1 has a Host-specification in the initial request, so that one server can host multiple domains on the same IP)
It should be noted that mail servers are indicated by an MX-record. And mailservers should also have a TXT record (SPF record) as part of spam prevention - some SMTP servers query this to ensure that your e-mail actually comes from you and not from someone spoofing the domain.
I used to have a zone file that did roughly what you’re trying to do, bit sadly I don’t have it anymore. But as you have DNS up and running, I’m sure you’ll be able to figure out the rest through checking some examples.
I half-baked an example zone file for you. I haven’t tested it, though. It assumes the domain of blargh.com being hosted from an IP of 123.123.123.123:

Oh, and some tips:
I primarily use perl, and while I find its syntax easy to understand, I’ll be the first to admit that its syntax and special use cases thereof does provide a way for some rather exotic symbol-garbage to be valid code.
Normal perl code is simple enough. But abnormal code does happen, sometimes on purpose, sometimes by accident.
I’ll share with you this gem:
Why is this program valid? I was trying to create a syntax error
There should be such a thing as “preemptive discovery process”, because you know any evidence of this will be destroyed by the time the legal system reacts.
Or blame the deep state
Even Alex Jones is critical of Trump these days. He still considers him amazing and all that, but he says Trump doesn’t go far enough in some of the rhetoric. I’m curious to see if this is a litmus test for future defections
For someone who doesn’t care about any candidate, you seem to post an awful lot about them. How about posting something you actually do care about instead of shitting up everyone’s feed with whatever stupid thing she said he said?
Correct. Voting will.
Vote!
Well, that’s what Vlad is paying her for.
Cool, he’s making an effort of learning to read. Good for him. 👏
Eat shit, Rudy!
And worst of all: Vance will do the disco stint
A survey conducted means someone paid for it. I’m having a hard time believing anyone but Elon himself being willing to pay for this survey.
True. There are reports that Elon himself agreed with this in a weekly address to xitter staff, after he thoroughly explained how he takes care to use the right type of lube when rectally inserting cucumbers on himself.
Doubt it. There are no hard indications that he’s a russian asset. He’s just an asshat.
Don’t hold your breath. .su is still around, so I doubt .io will disappear very soon.
