Not the person you're replying to, but I would second what they're saying. I recall many years ago reading a post from the Tor browser team explaining that they customise the UA and even browser window size to avoid fingerprinting. It's not the UA alone, but that in combination with other values the site you're visiting can detect.

User agent is also the very first thing checked on the below fingerprinting site. I was surprised to see that 0.00% of me have the same user agent as me!

The homeless guy down the street reckons the hospital was bombed by the aliens who live in his ballsack. Are they going to do an article reporting on that next?!

These recalls are sure to get less severe and happen less often if ford goes ahead with firing 10,000 senior experienced union members like they're threatening to. /s

For those of us that dont like having to click thru to eX-twitter to give musk traffic, any chance that we could get the game name in the title? ๐Ÿ˜

I can't believe those awful protagonists. How terrible they are. You should tell us which animes have the worst such protagonists just so we can make sure to avoid them.

Holy shit I just read it and... Wow. I am never, ever, ever in my life buying a game that Peter Molyneux has involved in.

It baffles me that US payment systems are so archaic that this is even possible.

Like, where I'm from, cheques literally don't even exist anymore - banks have all stopped issuing them. It's all electronic, with 7-day-per-week payments between any bank in the country, and same-day payments within the same bank. I can send my GF money and she has it an hour later (without even needing a 3rd party app or anything - straight to her account).

Burn the whole god-damned country down and start again.

While this bill seems alarming, I wish there was a more reputable and less overtly-biased source reporting on this.

While in principle this is a great piece of news, reality isn't as optimistic and I'd suggest asking questions before deciding to celebrate. When single use plastic shopping bags were outlawed, reusable bag sales went up (as you'd expect), but based on the numbers I saw, the reusable bags cause overall greater levels of emissions and refuse than the plastic they replaced.

In layman's terms, if a 1-use plastic bag has an environmental cost of "1 carbon", and a (bigger, heavier, made of multiple things) reusable bag has an environmental cost of "14 carbons", the reusable bag has to be used 14 times to be a better option, but in practice they're used around about half that many times before being damaged / thrown away.

What, your company doesn't throw the hardest jobs at the newest devs to give them a proper trial by fire? Smh ๐Ÿ˜‚
