I am pro Chinese myself, I’m not getting paid by anybody, and I can assure you that posting pro Chinese comments here gets them flagged pretty quickly. But I’m not sure if it is because people don’t like those opinions or because they think it’s unlikely anybody can be pro Chinese so they automatically think you are a propaganda account. It could very well be either, based on my past experiences posting comments that go against the “allowed” politics of the site.


Looking at some of your other comments, which have nothing to do with China, it’s absolutely no wonder you’re getting flagged.

If you present contrarian opinions but on top of that you wrap them in a shit sandwich, I too will flag.


It is 2022. Feelings rule the Earth. You don’t win by being better. You win by crying more (in this case, to regulators).


Girls continue to have Instagram.


Where the activity can be distressing or malicious in terms of jealousy and trolling


Online gaming too, severely too. Maybe even more. But, it is closer to irl communication.


1.) Boys too.

2.) It is not socialization with active voice chat. That is more like writing letter or something like that. It will do less to make your brain feel like you have social connection.

The thing that is supposed to make difference (according to psychologist that had talk about social isolation) is talking. People who call have similar psychological results as those heavily socialized. if you write mails a lot, you reassemble lonely people more.


“You will own nothing and you will be happy.”


Seems the board of directors disagrees with you.


But that happens everywhere in the world where there’s public television. In Spain that even happens with private television since they’ve been giving them money as some sort of “pandemic relief”, making sure they never speak ill of the measures put in place. Public television shouldn’t exist in this day and age.


This is so wrong and a huge misunderstanding.

If the state has such a stranglehold on the public channels then that is the underlying problem. It would have the same control over private media if it needed to.

Public media and/or limited state support for private news media is absolutely vital for a functioning democracy.


Playing the "x is good for democracy" card. If it's good for democracy, it's totally justified right?

And if someone claims X is good for democracy, he doesn't need to bring data because he's on the Good(TM) side, so he can skip that step, right?


Are you sure you are not erecting two strawmen there?

In a democracy, the public chooses their leaders. They do so based on the readily available information. If the only (or overwhelminly prevalent) sources of information have other agendas, such as serving the needs of their conglomerate owners or a totalitarian-aspiring government then that information will be of low quality and likely to further cement the power of those that control the media.

To counteract this, a way must be devised to ensure diligent journalistic types (of whom there is no shortage) have the means and security to do their proper diligence for the public.


Public television lacks the same corporatist incentives of private media, their inability to meaningfully criticize the party that feeds them notwithstanding. I’d prefer a mix of public and private media to private media alone.


I’d rather have corporatism than progressivism, but that’s me.


why?


Probably he or she conflates progressivism with inefficient, yet authorian marxist rule like in sowjet russia - and corporatism with efficient no-marxist but corporate authorian rule.


Vile.


Leaked emails indicate that government official ordered TV to create a smear campaign about one judge that just ruled aginst prime minister in a court case. And TV immediately complied.

I doubt it's the same in Spain.


Wrong, there's not 1 public television

theres 1 + 17 + even municipal television channels.. all at the expense of taxpayers, to make the government look good or push some politically loaded content


Not everywhere, BBC would be a good counterexample.


Why sign up to hacker one if you don’t want to receive bug reports?

Also wouldn’t this be… religionism? :P


What I'm seeing in that threat rather seems like the developer had not signed to hackerone and had not invited bugreports, but received an unsolicited request from the OP to join hackerone and probably pay them money for a beg-report. I.e. OP had linked a screenshot from hackerone which states that Netapp does not accept unsolicited bugreports.


nah, this is frequently directed against brown people, there are a bunch of coptic christians in Egypt where the original guy is from.


Your comment has been unfairly downvoted. There are IPv6-only users, but they can access IPv4 servers just fine through transition techniques. Otherwise they’d be unable to access most of the internet. You probably interpreted it as no IPv4 connectivity at all, which as you assumed is impossible.


That’s not the whole story. Your service doesn’t need to be accessible through ipv6. Just over 464XLAT. That won’t be a problem if you use high level system apis to make connections. All of my servers are ipv4-only and I haven’t had any apps rejected by apple.


You're partially right. Your apps need to support IPv6 because the internet connections can be IPv6 only. I believe T-Mobile is a big one does this. They do translation for their clients to the IPv4 internet, so they'll be hitting your IPv4 server through a translation layer. The client is still IPv6 only.


That doesn't make sense. If I hit amazon.com on my browser, which is IPv4 only, t-mobile needs to provide a (private) IPv4 IP to the phone to make that possible.

Edit: was totally wrong about this: https://www.internetsociety.org/resources/deploy360/2014/cas...

iOS (since IOS 12) and Android have native clients that can tunnel IPv4 requests over an IPv6 only network that are used for providers like T-Mobile.


Not necessarily.

T-Mobile could respond to DNS requests with an IPv6 address that includes an encoding of Amazon.com's IPv4 address in it so that when you try to connect it it, the gateway knows what IP address you're looking for and can do the NATing there.

Of course, this is just conjecture about a possible way of making it work, and it could easily get broken if you configure your phone to use a different DNS server.


Thanks, that's a good point. Apple talks about it here: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Ne...
