The price of a .com domain is set to rise, and some sellers aren't happy

If you're the sort who buys domains for fun, or to inspire you to start a future project, your hobby's about to get a little pricier. ICANN is just days away from ending a consultation into the future of the .com top-level domain that'll put an end to Obama-era price freezes. If successful, it'll see the cost of a .com address rise by two bucks by the end of 2026, and potentially more thereafter. ICANN  is a not-for-profit body, headquartered in LA, that co-ordinates the Domain Name System (DNS) to ensure unique web addresses exist. It outsources the actual buying-and-selling of those domains to third parties, and has oversight by the departments of Commerce and Justice. Now, however, it's looking in to tweaking some of its rules to, potentially, benefit one of its partner companies above others.

Should I buy a curved monitor for gaming? The Science behind Curved Displays.

Image
Breaking down the pros and cons of owning a curved monitor for gaming. Upfront, curved monitors can seem kind of gimmicky, especially for the price. How can a larger monitor with whatever degree of curvature make gaming more immersive? When you're intensely focused on capturing a point in Overwatch, building a mansion in the Sims 4, or making life or death decisions in Man of Medan, the curvature of your monitor is the last thing on your mind. But even if you don't buy the whole immersion factor, curved monitors are nicer to look at, they create a more realistic representation of the world, and are a lot easier on the eyes. What is a curved monitor? Curved monitors have been around for some time, since 2014 when the first models hit the market. They only recently gained traction, however, as their costs continue to fall slowly. Physically, there isn't much difference between a curved monitor and a flat monitor except for the—you guessed it—curvature. The curvature of these ...
