~120 countries fully endorse One China Policy. ~60 acknowledge. ~10 recognize ROC.

> Taiwan has and always will be a province of china

You know that's official position of 99% countries in the world, including all superpowers and every NATO member?

No it's not and if you do believe that, you are taking an overly reductionist viewpoint.

99% countries, as they say, "acknowledge China's viewpoint".

I can't help but feel there must some better venue for such messaging.

When I see politics in software updates or documentation, nothing happens because I'm not looking to use the software for political activism. Maybe I tell my adblocker to remove the messaging, and carry on with my task.

I can engage with politics in a social context, when political messaging isn't interrupting something else I'm doing; that's a better place for activism, IMHO.

I almost always see activists using the argument that if I don't like the messaging then I'm part of the problem. Somehow I doubt that, given I don't mind messaging at all, where it's appropriate.

If the political messages said "gas the Jews", "exterminate the Ukrainians and give Ukraine to Russia", and "Taiwan has and always will be a province of china", you probably wouldn't use notepad++.

There is no need for that. They only need to implement a closing auction like stock markets. But eBay hasn't done anything since the 1990's except raise fees.

Nothing? Don't forget when their security team sent pigs heads to people and terrorized them:)

> The CA fetches that token over plain HTTPS

The HTTP-01 challenge can only be done on port 80.

The article was clearly written by an LLM. It would make no sense to use https for a challenge like that, indeed.
