  • That analogy isn’t the same, at all. The Chinese aircraft didn’t just check them out, they deliberately flew dangerous as an intimidation tactic. The Dutch airforce doesn’t do this to anyone in the North Sea, even Russian bobmers. They just intercept, follow and tell them to leave.

    The Dutch aircraft and boats weren’t acting suspiciously or hostile at all. They were carrying out UN sanctioned activities. China is a permanent member of the UN Security Council they could have vetoed these activities if they didn’t agree with them.

    China allowed this operation, then they the behaved deliberately dangerously as an intimidation tactic. China wants to spread propaganda that this is okay and normal behaviour, it isn’t. They want to normalise their behaviour so they can bully their neighbours easier than before. Similar tactics have lead to fishermen dieing due to Chinas aggressive posturing.



  • There isn’t a good way to get the jellyfin app running on a properly open and free os. You need an android tv box, fire tv, Apple TV, the tv os or something similar. You could run it on Linux, but there isn’t a good well supported out of the box works with tv os like Kodi offers with libreElec.

    Android may be open source but not the setup to make it work with a tv well. If you want privacy on a tv you need kodi.



  • They aren’t enemies of the state. Groups are classed as terrorists when they are using violence and terror to attack a nation state government, or its interests. The KKK don’t challenge the state in this way, they terrorise people and they support violence. But they don’t define themselves or act as enemies to the state.

    I think they should be classed as hate groups and possibly terrorists. They do use terror to try to enact social change. The social change they want is more of a regression than a revolution, so it can be easy for conservatives to sympathise with them. Conservatives make up half the political power in most countries so it’s hard to classify these types of groups as terrorists. These groups advocate for conservation of social norms, just the norms they want to preserve are oppression and lack of civil rights.



  • They could attempt to quantify how gamed the result is and reduce its ranking. Also punishing domains with lower ranking the more they return SEO optimised pages. They could also increase the ranking of older pages.

    This doesn’t really help google, it only really improves their search results. Google wants these hyper SEO optimised results with lots of advertising. Additionally, the less relevant the result is the more searches a person does. Each search is an additional set of ad impressions.

    Google search is better than ever. Because it generates more advertising opportunities for google. Google isn’t in the business of returning good search results, they are in the business of displaying ads.
