Cover Your Tracks shows this kind of obfuscation strategy as "Randomized Fingerprint", but it only shows it for Brave, not for Librewolf when I tested it. Brave fingerprint is unique but it randomizes, while Firefox doesn't.

Unfortunately, it didn't pass the fingerprint test. You can see the results here: https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/ . On the other hand, Brave does pass it. I'd like to use Brave for all my browsing, but for some re

I think he was referring to the way colonizers commonly referred to the subjects of their colonies pejoratively as "savage natives". This applies to Native Americans, Africans, South Asians, etc. Racism was the norm in the old day

This is such a common and dangerous rhetoric, which has been repeated millions of times in India today, that people are willing to believe that one community has wickedly tried to subjugate everyone by denying them the right to education. B

Looks very tough considering how much complicated a modern browser is. There is Ladybird project but it's expected to be in Alpha stage by 2026.

Cool article from the perspective of setting up a data center, but the big question remains - Why? If the goal is to create a bigger, faster, smarter version of OpenAI's GPT, then I'm not sure if this sounds even logical. The curr

Excel will happily ignore if you use tabs as delimiter and show all the columns as a single column. Atleast LibreOffice tries to figure out and confirms the delimiter before opening CSV.

It's 2024 and Excel still doesn't natively parse CSV with tabs as delimiters. When I send such csv files to my colleagues, they complain about not being able to open them directly in Excel. I wish Excel could pop up a window like

Reminds me of discussion I remember seeing on HN about how all the oil companies have a dozen or two guys who can just read the assignment for few hours and point out on map where the next drilling should be, and their predictions are almos

I can help you in some way because I have experimented with blocking a lot of distracting sites for my own internet de-addiction journey. You can set up NextDNS or Adguard DNS to block YouTube at the router, device, or browser level. Really

Any suggestions for under $1000 (excluding tax)? I've looked at Thinkpads and all the good ones are well over that price. My priority is light weight and at least a 16GB/512GB combination. The only laptop I could find that meets t
