Yes it does. It says Svalbard and Jan Mayen.

>>61599903

You're not gonna get that flag by posting from Svalbard, since the .sj domain is not in use and the internet comes from the mainland.

I love that you shitposted from svalbard. Is it worth visiting? I've always wanted to go desu.

it's good to note that in real life that protein does not move like that, this gif makes it look like the protein knows where to lands its feet, in real life it throws it "legs" everywhere and hope it sticks

Absolutely. It's a really unique and amazing place.

Pic related is from the abandoned Sovjet mining town "Pyramiden". A day trip there is mandatory.

This issue deserves some clarification. There's two different things going on here: the possibility of generating a svalbard flag embedded in 4chan's website, and what actually happens when you visit Svalbard and funpost.

Number one: There is some way, in some way, shape, manner or form, to make a "svalbard and jan mayen" flag generate on 4chan, period. I know this for a fact. I have seen a Svalbard flag, hovered over one, and I strongly suspect that the finn and/or the icelander have seen one, on at least one occasion. So I know that that's true, no matter what you say.

HOWEVER, obviously in most cases this is most likely some sort of proxy. In this case, I seem to remember that it was PK posting.

I don't really have any reason to doubt your story. It's Norwegian turf after all, and internet infrastructure for more obscure places is often not up to speed. Internet things are often handled by the mainland, as you say. There are african governments whose official websites end in ".com", ".net" or similar, etc.

I think it is likely, as you say, that many if not all real, literal Svalbard connections are not configured as the Svalbard code, whatever it is. But I"m unconvinced that this is true for all of them. Moreover, I know for a fact that it is possible to somehow generate a Svalbard flag on 4chan for intance, so the infrastructure is not only there, it is accessible (presumably by skilled outsiders, like "PK").

My larger point being that your "nope that's impossible" attitude is clearly false. It is not only possible, but feasible for some hacker to visit svalbard and configure his rig to post "legit" Svalbard flags. After all, you use 4chan yourself, you're using a computer right now, and you've actually visited Svalbard, as you say. It's just a question of researching networking.

listen to this while you're doing it.

I would like to add to the above that although I have seen a Svalbard (presumptive proxy-) post, I have never seen a Bouvet island flag, not one time. That's where I do start to doubt the possibility, but I don't foolishly foreclose it.

I have seen the Svalbard flag, but there is no way to get it just by posting from Svalbard. You must do some proxy hacking shit.

There's plenty of space if that's what you're asking
>>
>>61605123
good post
>>
>>61598484
Why?
>>
>>61605247

Because of big white bears that eat people.
>>
>>61605123

"no"

>>61605229

No, it wasn't.

>>61605148

Very good. Now account for the situation where a person who is actually on Svalbard does "some proxy hacking shit".
