My GPU identification is off by about a decade but it did get the brand right

#82Whether or not the information is accurate isn't really the point. It's that it serves as a way to identify you even without cookies. I looked for better websites, the EFF one[0] is informative.
My browser fingerprint was unique among the visitors in the past 45 days.

#83Someone should do a demo where they take all the info from the browser and feed it to an LLM to describe the person as accurately as possible. I bet it would be 10x better than any horoscope.

#84> Your screen is 1512 by 982 pixels, rendered at 2x density — which means it is almost certainly a recent, high-end display. Your device volunteered all of this in the first milliseconds of the connection. No it didn't. It was queried by the JS running on the page. It's a fun demo but it could really do without the slop prose.
Pedantic but right. The JS queries them; the browser returns them without prompting the user. "Volunteered" is the editorial verb for that round-trip but it does paper over a layer.
It's relevant because connection-level fingerprinting is directly visible to intermediaries like cloudflare.

#85Vibecoded slop with LLM-written copy. When will it stop
According to the "Sources" popup, creator can't even excuse the slop as AI slop:
> The prose
> Hand-written · Template-based, not generative
> Every sentence on this page was written by Matt. The code selects among prose templates based on what your browser returned. No language model writes or rewrites anything at runtime. If a condition is not covered by hand-written prose, the page stays quiet about it — we'd rather say less than say something false.

#86Another unreadable piece of slop with Claude fonts and style that this user has already spammed three times here with an account created 21 days ago.
This is out of control, and y'all just comment these threads as if they're made by humans.

#87It's really bad, it's not using proper fingerprinting techniques, no network stack fingerprinting, no browser history via DNS poisoning, no narrowing down exact country with timing and so on. I mean this is even inferior from basic tools like amiunique, what's the point?
It's a piece of AI slop that this user, with an account created 21 days ago, has been spamming here for the third time.

#89* I'm not in that city. * It's running a kind of Chrome on a kind of Linux, at a stretch. * Nobody can infer when I work and when I sleep. That includes me. * The recent, high-end display is the screen of a low-end tablet I bought in a supermarket five years ago. * But yes, browser fingerprinting is annoying. * Since you can detect light mode, would it kill you to honor it?
It was much better for me. * Your socks don't match anything in the room. * The man you thought you killed in Tuscaloosa woke up and walked home an hour later and is now a chiropractor in Shreveport. * Your daughter is pregnant by the kid who trims the hedges. * Your dog is dreaming about the squirrel in the wood pile. How does it know?

We desperately need some tagging system/convention here. Maybe just putting [AI] into the title. This bullshit is getting really tiring. It looks like this is an ad by the way, check op's posting history
All these submissions come from bots, and users with accounts younger than a month with one single submission (in this case three times the same submission).
Maybe the system should block anyone with lower than xyz points and 20 comments to post any link?
I dunno, I guess it's hard but this shit is really affecting the community.
