Re:Top of Chinese wealthy's wish list? To leave China on Thursday September 08, 2011 @09:24PM (#2976384)
so true, so sad. besides emigrants, it was popular that rich people in the mainland went to Hongkong to labor their child. Hence the new born could become a citizen of Hongkong.

People in China are lacking in sense of secure. Our apartments and houses only last 70 years, government will take these back once the deed expire. The food is made of lots of weird stuff, only the imagination is the limit.

There's no need to become a hacker for porn in China. Mostly people learn about hacking for flying over the great fire wall, for youtube/facebook/twitter etc.

The crackers forming is another story. Pirated Windows XP is everywhere, along with Internet Explorer 6 (what a surprise). That makes cracking easy, and so called safe guard softwares like 360 popular.

gmail is not blocked. it just chokes now and then.

I read HN from google reader. And it tells me that someone had just liked this news.

The freedom of China's intranet needs to be fought for by its own people. But how could anyone `like' current situation like this?

Testing won't give you any help if you started with the wrong direction.

The parent of my comment might be making some joke about the 41 shades of blue that Zeldman said.

And quote from him, "There are more exciting design problems in this world to tackle." http://www.zeldman.com/2009/03/20/41-shades-of-blue/

no offense but this sounds like tasting 41 piles of shit and users preferred horse's.

that black bar is so oppressive.
