It’s probably precisely because his browser is not customized that it’s not easily fingerprintable, because stock Safari has privacy protections and users generally don’t change anything.

Liquid Glass is actually very good design that addresses design problems that persisted since the switch to touchscreens in a very comprehensive way.
More specifically, the problem of how to have universally recognizable and standardized UI controls in every app without interfering with their design identity.
To me it’s just a logical conclusion in the UI design field, and I fully expect Google and others to adopt something like it eventually.
The implementation isn’t flawless though.
I’d love if an actual UX designer could comment here.
My turn to complain about bugs. I used to balk at people when they complained about bugs on MacOS/iOS.
My iPhone 7 which I used for 7 years straight, was more bug-free than my current iPhone 15 Pro.
There’s no shortage of visual bugs with iOS 26, but that’s not my point. Recently I had to restart my phone (literally unheard of in Apple land) because I put it in Guided Access and it wasn’t possible to get it out without a force restart, which I had to learn how to do for the first time. That bug persisted for at least a month.
A few days ago the camera app would just show a grey screen and the fix was to restart your iPhone.
I’m sorry but that’s Android. If you have to restart your phone because of a bug, or core functionality like camera doesn’t work, you are not using an iPhone. But apparently, you are, and apparently Apple has finally succumbed to organizational corruption like every other company.
Still miles better than Android though, in which the OS is still an active warzone between Google and the manufacturer.
> A psychedelic medicine company Mindstate Design aims to precision engineer mental states in order to heal mental health problems such as depression. Their plan is to create combinations of chemicals that reliably produce the exact necessary healing states — without the “hit and miss” “heal or bad trip” randomness of individual psychedelics.
> And to discover these they use a LLM-based platform that ingests tens of thousands trip reports online and combines with receptor/chemical interaction data (including affinities).
Dude, that's wild. I can't imagine what you could do to get infected with so many different organisms. Are you sure there isn't some underlying unifying reason, like rare genetic disease that makes you more prone to infections or something?
It’s all opportunistic infections, compounding on each other’s impact on the total capacity of an immune system.
Mold exposure drives immune dysfunction (including gut dysbiosis, and weakness of important barrier-type tissues) that allow these common infections to really thrive.
The environment described above leads to impaired cognitive function, and, if the glymphatic impact (detox inefficiency) is left unaddressed long enough, stuff like Alzheimer’s, dementia, more.
What you believe to be rare, reading my case, is quite common - but simply yet to be fully understood.
Slowly the lonely anecdata of hidden, missed chronic illness is being joined by data, and scientific fact:

Not an American. At this point, I'm beyond surprised there still isn't a resistance movement that doesn't play by the rules, because the ICE sure are not playing by the rules.
Thanks for these. I always used 1/8 to 1/4 of the pills (0.3 - 0.7 mg) out of principle of using the minimum effective amount, I didn't know taking the full 3mg pills is actually proven to be less effective and even possibly harmful for the circadian rhythm.
your prescription - (100 / desired distance in cm).
For your PC that sits one meter away from your eyes, you'd need to subtract 1 from your real degree of myopia, e.g. for -4 degree myopia, get glasses that are -3. Don't forget to calculate individually for each eye.
As a matter of fact I'm using glasses I bought this way right now. I actually find these even more comfortable than my full degree glasses for all-day use too, in terms of eye strain.
I feel it's ridiculous that the medical industry thinks I need to wear glasses that are powerful enough to focus an image of a mountain 100 kms away all day, when my average focus distance throughout the day is probably less than one meter.
These reduced degree glasses are called differentials. If you want to go into the rabbit hole of fixing your myopia, start here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPIGDSY_xBs
Disclaimer: When driving, you have to obviously wear your full prescription glasses.
I don't currently have any known vision problem nor wear glasses, I was only looking to reduce eye strain since I regularly need to take breaks due to my eyes hurting after using the computer for too long. I have had recent eye exams and they were 20/20.
That being said I'm even less sure how to calculate it now.
The post at the top of this sub-thread is specifically about myopia. It is not applicable to eyes hurting and any calculation would not be applicable to someone without myopia, since the calculation begins with a myopia distance prescription.
Myopia or no myopia, afaict the way to reduce eye strain is the same.
My understanding is that eye strain is either caused by unbalanced lightning (e.g. bright screen in dark room), or focusing on close distance for too long without giving the muscles a break by focusing further away. The well known 20-20-20 rule tries to establish that. As a practical advice, you may try adding some small walks, getting some fresh air for a few minutes, or even looking out of the window for a few minutes throughout the day.
FYI, iPhones have a feature to tell you to use your phone further away when you use it glued to your face. If you have myopia, it should go without saying that you should never use your phone with your glasses.
> you should never use your phone with your glasses
Apple could detect that the user is wearing glasses. During FaceID registration, the phone could ask whether the glasses are for distance (myopia) or closeup/reading. If distance, the phone could offer to remind the user to remove their glasses after using the phone for more than X minutes.
