Triv888··on Zero arrests in 6 months of health care professionals replacing police officers
That new title confused me at first... maybe I'm the only one. The actual title of the article is more clear to me.

Actual title: "In the first six months of health care professionals replacing police officers, no one they encountered was arrested"

HN title: "Zero arrests in 6 months of health care professionals replacing police officers"

Triv888··on Open source: Google wants new rules for developers working on critical projects
Google is going to pay for the hassle? I bet not... they just want most open source projects to disappear. That would be worst then evil in my book.
Triv888··on Help users in Iran reconnect to Signal
While it worked in that case, it is not an invincible method.
Triv888··on Just because I have a vertical screen doesn’t mean I’m on a phone
I was just using my browser in half-screen mode on reddit and I got this: https://i.imgur.com/z5Sb7Mj.png ... my screen is a bad resolution ~37in TV...
Triv888··on Parler CEO says he was fired by board
but what matters is free speech... if we can no longer have it hosted in the US for the Internet, it doesn't really matter where the free speech is hosted (also, maybe we can host free speech for Russia in the US?).
Triv888··on Parler CEO says he was fired by board
Give me Parler's software and I will host it in Russia... that's where USA's free speech usually come from anyways (free as in somewhat controversial, popular and still allowed).

I think I say a lot of somewhat controversial things, but they let it fly because I am not popular.

Triv888··on I Still Use RSS
I use RSS in a way that doesn't incite me to read everything... there is no unread status on any of the feed elements.
Triv888··on Google’s approach to replacing the cookie is drawing antitrust scrutiny
I do too, but we don't get security updates. It is ridiculous that they went backward like this.

If someone has a better explanation then Google paying them for doing that, please let me know. I think Mozilla's new CEO is a sock puppet like most of the sheep out there (including me sometimes).

Triv888··on Google’s approach to replacing the cookie is drawing antitrust scrutiny
And Google is probably paying Mozilla so that they block those cookies too... I think that they might have paid them for other things too... like for blocking 99% of extensions on Firefox mobile (those are speculations, that are very probable).
Triv888··on Ask HN: What is the oldest image online in which the link is not broken?
That is sad if 2000 is the last year.
Triv888··on EteSync – Secure Data Sync
It is not externally accessible... only the home VPN is (I'm also using DDNS just in case my semi-static IPv4 changes). But of course nothing is 100% secure.
Triv888··on People Keeping BlackBerry Alive
Someone in this thread said that he updated SSL certificates to fix the website issue.
Triv888··on EteSync – Secure Data Sync
The provider is me... so if I get hacked, they could get the data while it is unencrypted on the client side.
Triv888··on SpaceX SN9 Explodes on Landing
It almost look like they didnt account for the extra weight or size of the rocket.
Triv888··on EteSync – Secure Data Sync
So it is basically the same... except that you can't share pictures, videos, or other file types? I wonder why you need a DAVx5-like app with EteSync if that is all it does?
Triv888··on Academic media censorship conference censored by YouTube?
> I wouldn't be surprised if Google didn't have great records of deleted content.

It would surprise me if Google didn't keep everything. Harvesting data is part of their business model.

Triv888··on 20k honey bees took over a tech company’s empty office during lockdown
At my house I used to have about 5 new red wasp nest under the soffit every year... Very easy to get rid of with that wasp spray that goes 15-20ft if you catch it early.
Triv888··on Amazon to Pay $61.7M to Settle FTC Charges It Withheld Tips from Drivers
Wow, that's low... They are the same type of people that would steal money from a homeless' cup? And no criminal charges, of course.
Triv888··on Ask HN: What is your “I don't care if this succeeds” project?
Is the hardware and software used open?
Triv888··on Why Robinhood disabled buys but not sells
hahaha, I never noticed the confetti... maybe I blocked the javascript... but thanks.
Triv888··on Why Robinhood disabled buys but not sells
They do business with a company that is involved in the large short position, that is why.
Triv888··on Why Robinhood disabled buys but not sells
I wanted to disable my margin account on RH but I didn't find how... luckily I no longer do business with them.
Triv888··on Analysis: Robinhood protected from lawsuits by user agreement, Congress
I'm glad I left RH about a month ago because I didn't even suffer from their non-sense (I left 2 weeks after I signed up). I left them because I didn't like their website/interface.
Triv888··on Robinhood denies claims that it sold GameStop shares out from under its traders
Next up: Google denies deleting thousands of 1-star reviews for the RH app in the Play Store...
Triv888··on Robinhood, in Need of Cash, Raises $1B from Its Investors
and please get funded by some hedge fund...
Triv888··on Robinhood, in Need of Cash, Raises $1B from Its Investors
I think that it makes it worst even for new investors... maybe better for computer-illiterate people, but that, I don't know if it is still a thing.
Triv888··on Robinhood, in Need of Cash, Raises $1B from Its Investors
yes... https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2020-321
Triv888··on High Short Interest Stocks
Good point. Maybe they will learn something?
Triv888··on Facebook shuts popular stock trading group amid GameStop frenzy
wow, they didn't do much research for this article...
Triv888··on High Short Interest Stocks
Don't put all of your eggs in the same basket.

I have no clue how anyone, especially edge funds, could get majorly impacted by just one stock moving the wrong way.

I have stocks in my portfolio that move 25 to 50% the wrong way almost everyday and I still get about 1% overall gain daily in this bull market (which is probably not great in this economy).
