Yes. Browser is nothing more than a HTTP(S) protocol interface which also renders the content graphically(also includes JavaScript compiler but eh). HTTP(S) protocol is built over TCP/IP which means that it uses IP addresses for access to servers. The shiney domain is just an alias. Those aliases are linked to IP addresses by the means of your DNS. If you paid your DNS sheekels to add your custom domain to their lists, you wouldn't have to search for providers. If you try "ping" command on an URL, it will ask your DNS for the IP address and use that. Otherwise you get "URL couldn't be resolved" or a similar error.

Why didn't the namecoin thing ever take off? Wasn't that to create a blockchain based domain name authority, with no centralized authority?
Does it not scale or something?
Tyler Ramirez
anyone who's not using a free name should kill themselves anyway. what fucking forced americunt idea is a market of domain names. we could have a secure naming system but no retard goyim have been sold the idea of brand names for websites
case in point
it's the jews
Leo Carter
Do you mean Namecoin is run by jews, or that the jews are preventing it from becoming popular?
Jason Ross
Namecoin works. I'm using OpenNIC, and can browse .bit domains fine.
Isaiah Martin
Noah Brooks
Yes, let me repeat. I am using OpenNIC to access namecoin domains, I am not running a namecoin client.
Kevin Ward
My deeper point, if someone missed that as well was that these alternate domain systems are out there and working, but people need to use them. OpenNIC is a pretty easy sell to everyone.
So the answer to what happened to namecoin is: What do you care you don't use namecoin?
Hunter Cruz
the latter
what the fuck, such a cuckmode exists?
