If it changes every load, that's your browser farbling canvas/audio per-read (Brave or Firefox), which means the anti-fingerprinting is working. We missed crediting that in v1, so it should read lower now if you reload.

I built this after a thread here about Alibaba using an audio-context trick to fingerprint visitors. I knew a fair number of fingerprinting methods but not that one, and I wanted to see all of them in one place, running against my own brows

Air travel can be revolutionized with a pod-based boarding system to reduce travel times and enhance safety. Passengers would have individual pods with built-in luggage compartments under their seats, allowing for fast, automated boarding a

I envision a system where the token covers the cost of your initial contribution, equivalent to the price of two DVDs, approximately $40. This not only funds the DVDs but also grants you access to our network. With the upfront cost accounte

Seems like we should be testing geoengineering in deserts first before we try it in much harsher environments like Mars. I think desalinated ocean water via low tech solar might be a good way to start - https://inhabitat.com&#x2
