I thought I’d share with you some good technical experiences that I’ve had recently.
I have moved my domains to new registrars, so that I could renew them for a full 10 years.

I’ve written a fair number of batch scripts in my day. Useful for fairly simple to moderately simple tasks in Windows, batch scripting usually works without any extras required.
