> You have to add a CF IPv6 it to the hosts file.

That's worse, yeah? You do see how that's worse?

The fact anyone should think this is somehow acceptable state of art is obscene to me.

> hosts file

1986 wants a word.

I actually run a separate DNS proxy that does it automatically for me. (HN and lot of other sites)

I only mentioned hosts file because it is the easiest way to spoof the domain.

That's still the same thing: you're manually adding a mapping where you shouldn't have to. HN should just publish the AAAA RRs and be done.

Your comment has no useful information.

Put this in your /etc/hosts file and it should work (I don't know if it does as I don't have ipv6)

Can confirm, works like a charm!

Which is not useful information in this discussion.

Ok, but please don't respond to a bad comment (or one you feel is bad) by posting bad comments yourself. That only makes everything worse.

A better way to counter comments that don't contain useful information would be to add some useful information; or perhaps to post a question explaining what information is missing and asking for it.
