It seems contrary to how brokers are reacting then.. brokers are allowing the long buys on the stocks right now but have only blocked shorting the stocks. If it is as you say the brokers and bank shorting and getting mad their getting screwed then I would have expected the brokers not to block shorts and still permit longs (which is what is hurting the banks/brokers).

@georgia

@icedquinn ahh ok, that makes sense then

@icedquinn yea im aware of the story a bit (didnt really look into it too much).. but what you just describe would be them long-ing the stocks (buying) not shorting.

@icedquinn It makes no sense to me, shorting makes stock prices go down not up normally. so I have to wonder why the reverse is happening here.

@dankmaximus lol it ruins everything!

I seen that and it looked sexy as all hell the one I saw... never found a place to buy one.

@cwebber You rock man, keep it up. Admitting this takes strength, to both yourself and others, be proud of that.

I think this is something most of us can relate to when it comes to self-confidence, so most, i hope, can recognize the accomplishment in that.

XKCD covered every topic known to techies :)

@sapphire yes intraday failure is, at least partly, on me. But its also possible poor usb quality means they fail much quicker with much less stress than a higher quality cable. I've had cables die on me in a day, and others last me multiple years. How long they last seem strongly correlated to the company i buy it from (and consequently the price).

@sapphire No it is quite common for USB cables to arrive out of the factory with intentionally or unintentionally incorrect connections. Some for example will only deliver power and not have the data lines in place. Hard to say how often this is intentional and bad manufacturing but it is a known problem with cheap cables that they may not work out of the box for certain uses (data and/or power)

@sapphire true, but im not sure i want to carry 3 or 4 around with me just in case they start failing or are DOA either.

@lucifargundam if it stands the test of time I dont care how it looks. I'm tired of usb cables breaking on me!

@gawrsh moderator here, this looks a bit like spam, but all your other posts do not appear to be spam related. So I want to check in to see whats going on and try to decide if any moderator intervention is needed (first guess being your account was hacked).
