  • Those devices may have a fingerprint. A lot devices can be uniquely identified. Here is an example that I read a long time ago so it might be wrong or I might not remember correctly.

    Your phone has a gyroscope, compass and accelerometer. Those tools are not perfect. Your compass does not point straight north, so it has to be calibrated. That calibration produces like a 6digits offset (0.739842). If you look at all the calibration numbers for a device you get a number that is basically unique for each phone. So even if you used different networks, they can still know that you used a device that you had previously used or associated with you account somehow. That’s why brave is an important step in what I said.



  • The thing is that you (probably) made not effort to hide your identity. The people that make the bots, use all of them

    For you the process is :They banned one of your accounts. That account last logged in from IP A. Right after that, someone using that IP is making a new account. Probably same person. Banned again

    For the bots, at a minimum is: they just banned and account. That account always logs in using a very popular VPN. Their browser is non fingerprintable. We can’t just ban any new accounts created from that VPN. Registration allowed. (Probably show a captcha)













  • I’m know that. I’m not arguing that detailed is better. It’s the post that is arguing that, with it’s implied “I can’t believe that thing got the first place”.

    My point is that better is better no matter how it’s made. It could be pretty or ugly, made with paint or digital, AI or no AI


  • People: “omg why are you using AI to make a picture of a frog. Just grab a pen and paper and whatever you do will be better than what AI can generate” Also people: “lol. This pen and paper drawing is awful. I can’t believe it won Against this high quality obviously better detailed drawing of a frog”


  • My neurologist started me on some meds and expects me to go back every moth to get a new prescription. That’s not happening. It’s the second time I’ve run out of meds for mor than a month.

    Also she says that ADHD can be treated with a 6 months treatment (which i interpet as “it can be cured”), which I’m not sure it can and says that Ritalin is for children while someone I know tells me that’s not true


  • Afaik when talking about computers you can be charged by acessing some thing (a site or a feature) that you know you are not supposed to. The same logic may apply here. If you got into an hotel, the unit was lockedand you used some trick to get it to do what you want, it could be illegal. They do not need a sign
