oOoOohh my settings worked as intended, spooky!

But you sacrificed some of your 33 bits of anonymity to have this setting work as intended. And that isn't strictly necessary: the web could have been engineered so that the selection of light or dark styles takes effect in a way undetectable to a web site.

It's the usual terse LLM voice that makes everything sound dramatic. Nails on a chalkboard

I can't stand this tone, it's truly the worst way to write, ever. Rapid successions of sentences 5 to 8 words long, where each must be impactful and profound but only end up sounding incredibly smug and abrasive. Fuck that.

That's what helped L figure out Kira was in Japan, and likely a student given the times of deaths, in Death Note. Ruled out 7.8 billion people in one step

I really enjoyed this comment! The right intersection of everything to fire reward receptors in my brain lol.

Edit: "fire reward receptors in my brain" is probably nonsense scientifically but hopefully it gets the point across

Agree, sending my language, if I use dark mode or time zones is all data that can be used to give me a better experience so I don’t mind.

> Trying to make a browser accessing your timezone sound nefarious isn't going to convince anyone of anything.

But I am the only person in this timezone in the world. It uniquely identified me!

The claim was that a site could "infer when you sleep, when you work, and when you browse because you cannot sleep." Is that not true? I know that the timing of my HN comments tells a pretty clear story about my schedule having recently looked at a histogram.
