  • You misunderstand. They're calculating a fingerprint that identifies you across sessions despite you changing up a bunch of values on your browser with an extension because that's all highly detectable. They know it's junk data they don't use it. It actually is worse because you stop blending in with the crowd.

    You're better off blending in then trying to look unique with every visit. The latter is a flawed concept.

    Read the arkenfox guide they get into it. Most extensions just reduce your ability to blend in to the crowd and thus should be avoided.

    Your extension might make you MORE finger-printable. Advanced fingerprinting scripts can detect lies told by extensions.

    If you're actually interested in reducing your fingerprint you should read the arkenfox guide which leverages built in features from firefox. You'll see very quickly that if someone wants to fingerprint you it's trivial and there's little you can do short of TOR.

  • You actually don't want to use the flag. So it should have reinforced the unwanted behavior.

  • Sometimes I get a thing where my bt audio doesn't connect properly and the audio controls like volume aren't properly synced between my devices.

    E.g. turning the volume up on my phone is like a seperate volume and then I can also turn up my headset on it's own controls.

    This is a legacy support thing. You can force the unsynced mode in developer settings.

    When my devices are connected properly the volumes are synced together as one control.

    Usually turning the headset off and on again is the quickest fix.

    Fwiw I have a p7.

  • Arkenfox is a set of Firefox flags.

    Librewolf/mule is essentially pre-packaged Firefox w/arkenfox and some things stripped out.

    The devs work informally on it which is why some releases lag. Like the jump to v128 lagged on mule because Firefox switched the way their repo worked and mull is based off of the Firefox source with some build scripts to change the logo, branding and add arkenfox settings by default.

    The flags used by Arkenfox are largely funded by the tor project as they work to upstream many of the tor browser changes back into Firefox which enables efficiency for future tor builds.

    This benefits everyone as the privacy preserving features of tor can be used off of the tor network too.

  • Love it when a whattaboutism misses the point as succinctly as this

  • is your demo real? I don't like AI but this is not characteristically accurate for modern gen-ai.

  • Babe it's not what you think, she's just statistically correlated to my dick.

  • Except that isn't what this is.

    "The feature automatically locks your phone when it detects your phone has been snatched from your hand. It uses data from your phone's accelerometer and gyroscope"

  • She's a symbolic scapegoat for everything wrong in americans lives and thus the source of everything wrong with this guys life.

  • Lol my benign posts are being deleted... Gg

  • I think everyone should defed from ml without this happening lol.

  • You understand what the ml in lemmy.ml stands for right? You're enemies by ideology.

    The admins of other instances can't help you stop tagging random ppl.

    Get off lemmy.ml. that's your solution.

  • I've owned/used HPs, Dells, and several Thnkpads and the thinkpads by far are always the best machines. They are built to last, support is top notch.

  • Look I'm fine if the govt wants to say a particular corporation is too big to fail. But trying to let that company remain private is not how too big to fail works. If you want a bailout, the govt owns your company, and the govt is obliged to maintain ownership for as long as it's deemed too big to fail...e.g. critical to national interests.

  • Mull is Fenix stripped of it's play store requirements with arkenfox built in.
