Only Euro deposits are insured. It's like a trading account for stocks. You cash is safe, but if your investments in stocks loose value then that's your problem.

Confirmations = "Current Block Number" - "Block Number your transaction is in"

Would it be illegal to connect to the internet with your phone (pay mobile price) then tether your phone to your laptop?

Works, Amazing, I think you accidently just created a way to hypnotize people in a second.

On: Murdoch slams White House over SOPA in Twitter row

[saturn7]

The funny thing is most of his on-line sites would get shut down with SOPA, seeing that his journalist plagiarise a good percentage of the articles they publish.

I know this first hand, my friend and I have a football blog where we posted an exclusive video where he managed to interview a footballer, the next day The Sun took the video and splashed it on the front page of their sports sections with out permission or attributing it to our site.

So with SOPA would I get to shut down thesun.co.uk?

[dangrossman → saturn7]

No, because if you made a good faith claim that thesun.co.uk exists primarily to infringe copyrights, the judge would lock YOU up for perjury. What you can do, right now, is sue them for copyright infringement. That's already illegal, of course.

[Natsu → dangrossman]

Does SOPA actually require that you state that claim under penalty of perjury? I didn't think it did, but I might be wrong or I might not have seen the latest version or whatever.

I've also never heard of a case where the analogous DMCA perjury provision was actually enforced, so I wonder sometimes.

The Hacker-news laser beam is best used on one balloon at a time for effectiveness.

Well GoDaddy that doesn't change the fact that I've had my domains unlocked for 4 days now and all my authorization codes still come back as invalid. Is that normal? I've been transferring domains for 10 years, now all of a sudden I don't know what im doing.

Thanks for that, didn't even realize you could delete domains before they expired. Just deleted 30 domains from godaddy that i had no intention of renewing.

In the UK Bitcoins are classified as a commodity.

It falls under the same rules as buy and selling gold which basically has no formal regulation.

I heard somebody define "money" as the most liquid commodity.

The commodity that can be exchanged for goods and services the most easily and efficiently is money.

wait wait this is my fav part, "At first, they followed removal instructions posted on the website of the Kaspersky security firm. “But the virus kept coming back,”" They have access to the same information my mom does? Don't they have their own people for stuff like that. Seriously Kaspersky isn't exactly the best antivirus program in the world and from their own website "The company’s headquarters are located in Moscow, Russia" US military uses a Russian antivirus company for help with military security.
