fucking yahoo

yahoo just implemented “enhancements” to their domain name service.

basically, now when you forward a domain name, say, sassyass.net, every url underneath that domain name is still directed to the main forward.

i.e. sassyass.net goes to www.speakeasy.org/~giantrobot.

but sassyass.net/images/title.jpg, still goes to www.speakeasy.org/~giantrobot, instead of www.speakeasy.org/~giantrobot/images/title.jpg.

thus, everything breaks. thus, the beautiful page you see now.

fucking a. good thing i already started the switch of my domain name hosting over to godaddy last week. let’s see if yahoo sets me free or not.

until then, enjoy the ugly.
