On May 3rd, Google released 8 new top-level domains (TLDs) -- these are new values like .com, .org, .biz, domain names. These new TLDs were made available for public registration via any domain registrar on May 10th.
Usually, this should be a cool info, move on with your life and largely ignore it moment.
Except a couple of these new domain names are common file type extensions: ".zip" and ".mov".
This means typing out a file name could resolve into a link that takes you to one of these new URLs, whether it's in an email, on your tumblr blog post, a tweet, or in file explorer on your desktop.
What was previously plain text could now resolve as link and go to a malicious website where people are expecting to go to a file and therefore download malware without realizing it.
Folk monitoring these new domain registrations are already seeing some clearly malicious actors registering and setting this up. Some are squatting the domain names trying to point out what a bad idea this was. Some already trying to steal your login in credentials and personal info.
This is what we're seeing only 12 days into the domains being available. Only 5 days being publicly available.
What can you do? For now, be very careful where you type in .zip or .mov, watch what website URLs you're on, don't enable automatic downloads, be very careful when visiting any site on these new domains, and do not type in file names without spaces or other interrupters.
I'm seeing security officers for companies talking about wholesale blocking .zip and .mov domains from within the company's internet, and that's probably wise.
Be cautious out there.

Hello! Concerning TS3 Late Night EP, I've been unable to locate in Buy Mode the Food Truck parking space that appear throughout Bridgeport, even by using the buydebug cheat. If a mod is utilized, the modded Food Trucks remain parked and do not travel around. Is it possible to unlock the Food Truck parking space? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated ;)
This mod makes the food truck parking space visible in Buy Mode, both under Sort by Room \ Outdoors \ Transportation, and Sort by Function \ Vehicles \ Cars. It can now be duplicated and deleted with the Hand Tool.
⚠️When you put down a food truck parking space, you need to also add a trashcan to the lot (Build \ Community Objects \ Misc) in order for the food truck to park there! (source)
Download: SFS | Mega (readme included)
=== NOTES ===
You most likely need the Late Night EP for this, since the food truck comes with it.
If you have the Pets EP, the ice cream truck may also stop in this parking space.
You can use Nraas Traffic to adjust how many food and ice cream trucks your neighborhood spawns, and to enable the food truck for Suburban-type worlds.
With Nraas Traffic installed, I ran some tests both in Bridgeport (classed as Downtown) and in the Bigger Builder's Island (classed as Suburban). With the Require Parking Space setting set to True, in Bridgeport the food trucks still spawned; in BBI, however, they didn't spawn at all. So, if you use Nraas Traffic, you may need to set food trucks to not require parking spaces in Suburban-type worlds. Thus, they will park both outside lots and on the allotted parking spaces.
It doesn't seem to matter which way you place the parking space, but it's generally preferred for the part with the traffic cones to face the edge of the lot.
Trucks do not become stuck in these parking spaces.
I was eating one of my absolute favorite foods, Chicken Alfredo the other night, when the realization that I know how to make custom recipes sunk in, and I had a new idea. And that idea turned into this!! Here are 3 new Fettuccine Alfredo Recipes for the Sims 3!!!!
The Recipe Details:
These all require Level 4 Cooking Skill and can be served during Lunch and Dinner.
Fettuccine Alfredo: Requires Garlic, Butter, and Parmesan Cheese
Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo: Requires Shrimp, Garlic, and Parmesan Cheese.
Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo: Requires Chicken Breast, Garlic, and Parmesan Cheese.
Please Note: The Butter, Parmesan Cheese, Chicken Breast, and Shrimp ingredients come from various cooking mods, but because all 3 of the recipes have Garlic, a Base Game included ingredient, they are also Base Game Compatible and you don’t need to download the mods if you don’t want to. However, if you want the custom ingredients, they are listed below:
1. Cooking and Ingredients Overhaul by Cinderellimouse-
https://modthesims.info/d/548787/cooking-and-ingredients-overhaul-more-nectar-ingredients.html for the Chicken Breast and Shrimp.
2. Baker’s Basket Plants, Ingredients and Recipes by Icemunmun-
https://modthesims.info/d/594851/baker-s-basket-plants-ingredients-and-recipes.html for the Butter.
3. Green Vegetable Plants,Ingredients and Recipes by Icemunmun-
https://modthesims.info/d/555310/green-vegetable-plants-ingredients-and-recipes-update-23-02-2016.html for the Parmesan Cheese.
I hope these make your sims as hungry as I was making them! Have fun and enjoy!! I couldn’t upload the file to Simfileshare at the moment for some reason, so it’s on mediafire instead. Sorry about that.

Some unused/placeholder/test animations from TS3! I thought they were pretty interesting, especially the bicycle ones which meant sims were able to get on them properly at one point before they scratched it.
Once upon a time a girl downloaded the beautiful Palace Luna from Arda Sims, then she went on the hunt to find the LunaSims CC that it required. She found it, but little she knew that part of it was broken and that it would cause a lot of lag in her game...
Sooo... what was causing the lag was that the walls pictured above had all the four recolourable channels enabled, when in fact the mask had only one! I fixed it with Texture Tweaker and no more lag!
Since I thought that it might be useful to someone else, here it is for download.
Credits: All to LunaSims Lulamai, I just fixed it ^^

I decided to put together some gameplay mods and overrides I use primarily for storytelling! I recently had someone ask if I had a resources page on my blog, and while I don't (yet), I hope you and others find this cool list helpful. Full disclosure: there are several lists out there of must-have-mods, these are just ones that I use in my game that allow me to tell stories the way I'd like.
Overrides:
Food Textures - Utopia Sims (this creator stopped retexturing foods awhile ago, however all of their links are still active. I will get into actual food mods later, however I find these to be boss).
Stereo Dance Override - This overrides the basic stereo dances that come with the game. I believe there are 35 different dances (preview).
Earbuds Override - I use these which replace the one that came with the Fitness Pack.
Coffee Art (works with tea, too!) - Overrides the default black coffee or tea. Only choose one.
Kitchen Sponge - Just a cuter version of that yellow blob they use to wash dishes.
Cutting Board - Overrides the default cutting board in game, choose only one (I use version 1) its the little things, you know?
Knife Override - Same as above except just a cleaner version of the knife your sims are always flipping up in the air whilst prepping food. Again, the little things.
Billboard Overrides - Just a cool replacement for billboards that make for pretty cool pics.
Illness Blush Override - Gets rid of the spots and stripes that come with a sick sim and replaces it with a body blush. Realistic touch for storytelling when your pixels catch a cold or another nasty virus.
Dirty Plate Override - Because who leaves a clean plate behind after they eat?
Ceiling Override - Replaces the in game ceilings indoors with a variety of pretty cool swatches. Choose one but keep the folder somewhere so you can switch out when you want.
No gloves while boxing - I use this for realism. One of my OCs used boxing as a way to relieve stress. But he was a beast so, gloves? Nah.
Natural Knitting - If you're tired of the rainbow yarn, this override changes that to a neutral color.
EA Default Teeth Override - exactly what it says.
Beer instead of juice for coolers - This one I made myself lol. In my story, my OC's mom lived in a trailer park and was always outside watching TV next to a cooler. Well my OC had a drinking problem so I recolored the "juice" into a heineken. The things we do for our stories... anyway, you might get some use out of it.
Randoms:
No Bike Helmet (there are several of these, I use one by Scarlet but their website is giving me virus warnings now. Check lilmisssam and the guy I linked)
No ZZZs while sleeping
No Mosaic
No Music Notes
Toddler No Sparkle
Hide Lot Trait Head FX
I'll do a list of essential mods later!! Hope these come in clutch, friends!
