It doesn't. This case applies more to MVB.

> Why give up information when you don't have to? Yeah, I generally agree with that viewpoint, but you are giving up that information, even without JS. Your TCP stack can be fingerprinted through long enough observation. Windows, Ma

I think they made the right call on that. It's unclear to me whether hiding the OS is even possible. There's just too much OS-specific behavior that happens inside (and outside) a web browser. It's hard to account for all of

The analogy falls apart when "your store" is actually a handful of multi-billion dollar corporations that surveil a significant portion of the internet and covertly grant government agencies (and god knows who else) access to the

I'm not even sure I'd want to make it narrow. I'd start with: "Information gained via side-channel for the purpose of correlating individuals." But you'd have to add an enormous amount of legalese after that to

They didn't call it a day. They created an entire deceptive hype cycle around it.

Yeah, it never works though, as you can see from this example.

You should use AI.

by chjj 6mo ago
If this is your opinion, I ask you: are you okay with AI reviewing the PRs as well, or do you prefer a human to do it? Think carefully before responding.

by chjj 6mo ago
That means all AI code would simply be rejected. This saves time.

Very cool project. Is it always an LD_PRELOAD or can it function as a standalone SOCKS proxy similar to wireproxy?

Fair enough. I haven't looked at the internals of ghostty, so I'll take your word for it. I'm probably also just taking things personally.

I don't mean to derail discussion about a cool project, but it still seems to imply xterm.js is somehow "improper" emulation (though I might be misreading it). Terminal emulators are all approximations of terminals, regardles

> In case of the Tor browser, they use the user agent to blend in, so they are not a good candidate to do anything about how stupid the user agent is. No. They don't use it to blend in. If they wanted to blend in they would be modif

Then the ideal would be to normalize the user agent string to look identical on every platform. My point is: they can't do that. e.g. A linux machine identifying itself as windows would be spotted immediately. Instead, they have to red

I tried doing that in the early 2010s. Even back then it didn't work (github broke for example). If you did it today, you'd likely be blocked by a lot of major websites for "lying" about your user agent. Cloudflare turns

I don't think it's a strange comment. He's mostly right (and so are you, but I think you're talking past each other). There's nothing wrong with SRS, and I agree with you that it's basically like cheat codes fo

This brings back memories. I haven't looked at it in a while, but I'm glad to see the fork[1] of my fork[2] from 12 years ago is still thriving. Looks like it's been mostly rewritten. Probably for the better. [1] https:&#x2F

My mistake. I thought your comment about being a skeptic was referring to the language itself. It sounds like you had a good experience with the rust community. I'm glad it worked for you. But from what I've seen, it's not fo

FTR I don't really have a problem with the rust language. I think there's some interesting ideas in there. I don't really like the syntax, but that's a minor nitpick. Not sure what to make of your other comments.

by chjj 2y ago
Fair enough. I suppose it is my most recent encounter. The result: I still don't like the rust community. You may have different opinions. I see no issue here.

I don't ever recall saying I'm being repressed. Could you point out where I said that? If you're referring to my above post, I'm pointing out that you're having a very emotional reaction to what I'm saying. Tha

I wouldn't go so far as to say toxic in this case, but their reaction to me having a differing opinion is certainly characteristic of rust developer pathology. Not sure why rust attracts these people. This phenomenon should probably be

We have very different experiences then. Don't know what to tell you. Every interaction I've had with a rust programmer has led me to believe they are a toxic community of cultists. It's unlike any programming community I&#x2

Your post is the most pathetic attempt of a lie I've ever seen. We all lived through it. We experienced it. It happened. Go gaslight somewhere else.

You're a libertarian, but you have issues with someone holding their own political opinions. Interesting combination.
