Today is the tenth day of Ramadan. I’ve been visiting Kazan, and had some issues with my domains
I didn’t manage to finish all my promises from yesterday’s post, but I did get all my main tasks done. I went to my bank, extended my debit cards, and got some certificates about my account. Then I visited my barber for a short haircut—it cost 700 rubles, about $9, and included a head wash. That was my main goal, and I got it done easily, no problems.
I didn’t have time to walk around or visit my favorite places. The weather wasn’t great—snow had melted, it was around 0 or maybe +1, and everything was full of puddles. So instead, I stayed warm and dry in my car while driving around.
I didn’t skip fasting, even during the trip. I woke up early, around 4 am, and started my fast. Honestly, fasting during trips feels easier—it makes time pass faster and keeps me busy with driving, talking to people, and just enjoying myself. Today, when I reached Arsk City, it was time to break my fast. I had a quick meal, drank some water, and kept going.
In the evening, back in my city, something frustrating happened. I wanted to extend my domain, tatarsms.ru, and the price shocked me—4000 rubles, around $51! I’ve had this domain since 2011, and over the past 15 years I’ve always paid way less. For comparison, I have atrvlr.com, and extending it last time only cost $8. Paying $51 for a .ru domain feels like a scam. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a chance to pay today, which was the last day for renewal.
Today is the tenth day of Ramadan. I've been visiting Kazan. Some issues with my domains
In Kazan I didn't finish all my promises, from yesterday's post. But I was able to finish all my main tasks. I visited my bank, extended my debit cards, and got some certificates about my account. After I visited my barber and got my short haircut, for it I paid 700 rubles, or $9. For this price included the head washing. It was my main goal, and I finished it easily and without some issues.
Unfortunately, I couldn't walk and visit my favorite places, because I didn't have enough time and the weather conditions weren't good. The snow melted; the temperature was around 0 or maybe +1. So everywhere was made of puddles, and I didn't have any desire to walk. Instead of it, I preferred driving my car and kept my warm and dry place in the car.
Anyway, I didn't skip my fasting, even though I had a trip to Kazan. As usual, I woke up early around 4 am and began my fasting. I think fasting during the trip is more convenient and comfortable for me. Because I can spend my time faster and easier during the trips. Because of that, I was busy with different things - driving a car, talking with people, and just enjoying myself. But today when I reached Arsk City, it was time to break my fast, and I finished my fast, drove a car, and just drank some water.
In the evening, after arriving in my city, one unpleasant thing happened. I wanted to extend my domain (tatarsms.ru), but the price surprised me properly. I registered it in 2011, and during the fifteen years I extended that domain, and today I saw four thousand rubles (4000) for it, it's around $51. Of course it stunned and infuriated me. I really don't understand why I need to pay so much more money for the fucking .ru zone. For example, I have atrvlr.com, and for extending it last time, I paid $8 in foreign domain registration service, but that Russian shit requires me to pay $51. It's really crazy and like a scam. Unfortunately, I didn't have any opportunities to pay, because today I had my last day to extend it.
