Google Domains

Doesn't matter what browser ... even current Chrome,
essentially Google's web site is complaining to Google's web crawler
that that "web browser" (crawler) is "not supported anymore",
and suggesting it ought download current
Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, or Safari.

Heh.  Pot, kettle, black?
