Yes. It works.

Just the regular browser. It just works.

Shouldn't it be the opposite: the lower, the less identifiable?

1 in 1 means that everyone has the same, 1 in 2 means that you are the same as 50% of the population, 1 in 1.000.000 means being pretty much unique.

Always keep in mind that Tor makes you uniquely identifiable if you are the only one using it on a particular website.

Quite frankly I disagree on almost everything. While the — or repeating the question may be legitimate red flags, the rest is not. There is a reason for that.

LLMs are trained on old material in which — was more common. Since they imitate what they know, here's why we get all those —s. Repeating the question is a technique to reduce hallucinations, that's why it is also quite common. Everything else is just how many people write. The average style may sound more academic and less "natural" simply because the training on academic papers usually has more weight than the training on blog posts. The rule of three is common in AI because it's common human. Emojis were a thing in corporate messages way before AIs. The word choice highly depends on the writers' culture, including whether they are native speakers or not. And so on.

Besides that, one can tweak the style easily. This is generated with AI using a simple prompt

AI is reshaping society—transforming how we work, communicate, and solve complex problems. Its potential is immense, but responsible innovation is the key to lasting impact.

This is the same prompt enhanced with some tricks.

AI is seriously leveling up how we connect with audiences and streamline workflows so if you're not tapping in you're already behind.

Nice video, but the truth is that false positives and false negatives are so common that AI-detection techniques alone cannot be trusted without more context.

I struggle to understand how you guys in the US missed the signs. I mean... stuff like "they are eating the dogs" should sparkle some doubts, right?

The problem is that once it will be normal to request IDs for porn, the same will be extended to everything else with excuses like “let’s do it for the kids” or “if you don’t have anything to hide…”.

VPNs… yeah sure, until there will be a crackdown on those too.

Also a reminder that woke is used negatively by the same people who cannot tell the difference between badly photoshopped letters and a gang tattoo.

The ghost of a nerd died in 1998 adding animated gifs to your website while you sleep.

Fertility drops sooner than what people think, and that includes the quality and quantity of eggs that can be produced for in vitro fertilisation.

Check how frequent the donation of eggs is, especially for women beyond 35 and consider that today it’s relatively common to have the first kid around that age.

Freeze your eggs by the age of 25

Once they told me that the biggest difference between good investors and bad investors is the amount of capital they can move. Good investors have large capitals that can absorb market drops and then rise again. Bad investors are wiped out by small fluctuations. In other words, what works for who drives large funds will hardly work as well for the average bloke. Keep it in mind whatever you read.

Assuming that you wouldn't ask here if you had large capitals, I recommend you to keep it simple and invest in funds with low commissions (like ETFs) tracking something like companies with very solid brands that will never go out of business (like Coca Cola). With 4/5 points of return above the inflation over 10/20 years you'll have good results.

If you feel lucky, put 5-10% in something high risk high reward and be prepared to lose half of it. Read whatever you find to understand the jargon (e.g. what's a "synthetic" ETF) and you should be fine with those simple tools. Don't forget to study the fiscal aspects, especially in regards of dividends and capital gain: often there are two version of the same fund, but one is more "fiscally efficient". Last advice: keep aside cash for emergencies because you don't want to sell your positions in the middle of a crisis.

I'm not a fan and sometimes they are full of BS, but you can check forums on FIRA (for early retirement).
