    Stablebox Announces Acceptance of Bitcoin

    Leading international companies don't use virtual offices as their headquarters. I find it... challenging... to believe Hypernia is anywhere near as large (or to @Licencecart's point, wealthy) as it tries to make itself seem.

    Does a Verizon iphone contract really cost this much?

    Yes, Verizon is expensive, but what he's saying his brother is paying is not normal. An individual line with a smartphone and 1GB of data costs $70 a month. $90 gets you 3GB. I'm inclined to believe his brother is either mistaken about what he's paying or what he's getting. Failing that it has...

    Dzhokhar Tsarnaev found guilty for Boston Marathon bombing

    How so? Literally the first words in his opening statement were admitting guilt. Like perennate said, the more contentious phase of the trial begins now.

    How to pay from BitPay

    You can't directly buy Bitcoins with PayPal, but there are indirect ways to do it. The best, IMO, is through VirWox. It basically works like this: you buy Linden Dollars (the in-game currency for Second Life, which PayPal is OK with because it's not real money) and then exchange those L$ for...

    Best US state to register an LLC?

    Not at all -- "foreign" LLCs are quite common for companies that do most of their business out of their home state. You just need to use a registered agent service (many available for a low flat yearly fee) if you're not local to the state you're forming in. Delaware has traditionally been the...

    Cisco mails hardware to empty houses to dodge NSA chop shops

    Why don't you believe it? Why would Cisco want their products tampered with by the NSA?  It seriously undermines consumer confidence in the company, especially overseas where they're trying to grow. They stand to make more money if people believe in the security and integrity of their products...

    It's 2015, shouldn't your company be operating in Los Angeles already? 40A 120V Full Cabinet - $799

    Yikes, phrasing! I get the message you're trying to get across here but this ends up sounding like a tacit admission your own Dallas and Miami sites are subpar.

    Kimsufi BHS in Stock!

    Oddly, these have consistently been in stock on the US and Canadian Kimsufi sites -- and only the US and Canadian sites -- for maybe a couple months now. The European sites, which used to have BHS KS-3s and -4s regularly, don't seem to get any BHS stock at all now. It sucks a bit because, like...

    ARM device to replace desktop?

    How about a Chromebox? Don't let the name fool you: they're completely open, so you can replace ChromeOS with Linux, or even dual-boot between the two. $159 gets you a dual-core 1.4GHz Celeron, 2GB of RAM, a 16GB SSD, four USB 3.0 ports, an SD card slot, HDMI, DisplayPort, Bluetooth, 802.11n...

    Dollar Euro exchange rate

    The consensus among economists seems to be that dollar-euro parity, at least, will be a long term trend. And a strong dollar is, for obvious reasons, a great thing for American consumers. At the same time, it may not be good for US corporations: exported American goods will be more expensive...

    FCC New Net Neutality Law Finally Released to Public

    The actual rule (Appendix A) is only 8 pages long. The rest of the document is mostly a report that talks about everything from background to public comments the FCC received, and then the last 80 pages are Commissioners Pai and O'Rielly's dissenting statements.

    [Confirmed] GreenValueHost being sold to XFuseSolutions

    Not to be snide, but my experience in brick-and-mortar businesses tells me that companies that drop the ball on basic compliance rarely produce legally sound contracts. XFUSE SOLUTIONS, LLC Not In Good Standing for failure to file Annual Report...

    What are people using for domain registrations now?

    They're cheap (NameCheap's name is a bit of a misnomer now) with totally straightforward pricing (what you see is what you get, no paying extra for private WHOIS, etc.). Their website and CP is easy to use but also powerful. And they have a very refreshing "no upselling" policy -- add a domain...

    What are people using for domain registrations now?

    Yep, NameSilo. Only potential downside you need to be aware of is the limited TLD selection.

    VMBox.co – $5/month or $40/year 2GB OVZ in US(PHX or LA) or NL – Free Wildcard SSL

    SingleHop has a "partnership" (which presumably means they pay some sort of flat fee) with GlobalSign to provide hosting clients with unlimited free certificates. It's a pretty nice perk.

    Much better, thanks! As long as Mark Read and View New Content are near the top and close together, I'm happy. Doesn't much matter where they are beyond that.
