  70. Most of my free time today was spent processing my email backlog, so I do not have much of note to say today.
  71. </p>
  72. <p>
  73. I sent an email to <a href="http://www.nic.st/support"><code>//st.</code> registry support</a> asking if there are any plans to add support for other types of <abbr title="Domain Name System">DNS</abbr> records, and stated that in particular, I am interested in SRV records and AAAA records.
  74. SRV records could make it possible for me to delegate <abbr title="Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol">XMPP</abbr> use of my domain to an <abbr title="Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol">XMPP</abbr> service provider, and AAAA records are just good for forward compatability of the Internet.
  75. Currently, the <code>//st.</code> registry&apos;s <abbr title="Domain Name System">DNS</abbr> services include support for A, CNAME, MX, and TXT records.
  76. </p>
  77. <p>
  78. I checked the First Tech Federal Credit Union website for the status of my debit card&apos;s activation, but it seems that it has not been activated yet.
  79. I am in no hurry anyway though, I do not plan to use the card, or even carry it on my person.
  80. The only reason I even activate these things is to assert to the financial institutions that not everyone has a telephone and there needs to be a non-telephone-based way to activate one&apos;s debit card.

  83. My <a href="/a/canary.txt">canary</a> still sings the tune of freedom and transparency.
