Firefox has few tricks to prevent finger printing
- There is a built in finger printing protection which helps a little bit but not perfect
- There is containers: Putting different websites into different containers isolate them from one another so for example opening a website selling toys in one container would prevent your facebook account that is running in different container from knowing about this fact.
- There is an extension called NoScript. This allow you to do what you want (block javascript) but since - as many others said - 99% of website won’t work without javascript, u could selectively allow certain javascript from certain domains while blocking others. By default all javascript are blocked but then u test enabling some to see what is the absolute minimum for certain website to work. NoScript remembers your selections so you only need to do it once per website.
- Comment on If we flipped the script, and the people working the shittiest jobs in America got Elon Musk money for working what would happen? Then gave the rich the same wage the lowly worker would earn? 2 weeks ago:
Abdul Nassir of Egypt did that in the 1950s, didn’t end well
- Comment on Couldn't you use a VPN to bypass VPN blocks? 1 month ago:
when you try to connect to a VPN you send certain request. firewalls could read that request, determine its an attempt to connect to a VPN and block it.

wireguard protocol is easy to identify and block. wireguard was designed for efficiency and speed not for circumventing censorship
- Comment on How Come Latin Didn't Spread in the Middle East as Much as it did in Europe? 1 month ago:
There an Arab historian called Maqrizi who lived in the 15th century. He wrote about south Egyptians monasteries saying: "… and most Christians of these monasteries the knowladge of Southern Coptic dialect [ Egyptian language ] followed by Northern Coptic dialect and Christian women of the south and their children almost speak nothing but southern Egyptian and have complete knowledge of Roman language (he means Greek since Romans in Egypt spoke Greek).
In addition to that many christian prayers are almost entirely in Greek. Its possible that really simple people like farmers may have not spoken Greek but most Egyptians had to understand it since it was the legal language of the country
- Comment on How Come Latin Didn't Spread in the Middle East as Much as it did in Europe? 1 month ago:
Exactly this. Most Egyptians could speak Greek by the time Romans ruled Egypt and continued to learn and speak Greek until Arab conquest when Greek eventually became irrelevant

- Comment on Why did/does Oman not raise a stink about Iran also closing their half of the strait? 1 month ago:
Oman gain nothing from the ships passing through the straight right now.
However if Iran gets its way and toll the ships there would be some money flowing toward Oman.
If I am Oman, I don’t see why I would fight against that

- Comment on Sperm have been made magnetic to allow IVF inside the body 2 months ago:
How do they stick a magnet to the head of a sperm cell? and how do they do it for thousands or millions of sperm cells? and how much would it cost for them to do that.
so many questions
- Comment on If Osama Bin Laden was given the option: commit terror acts against the US; or install trump as president. With full knowledge of the results of multiple trump presidencys which would he chose? 3 months ago:
I think the terror thing.
Because doing that terrorist attack is what got the US bogged into many wars which lead people to be fed up with the way the US is being run by traditional US presidents which ultimately led them to elect Trump (at least for first term).

- Comment on How to I prove to someone that the U.S. moon landing wasn't staged? 6 months ago:
I might spend time explaining to flat earthers why earth is not flat because it is important to know especially if you work in large construction projects and other jobs that require taking into account earth’s curvature.
Proving moon landing on the other hand is totally pointless. It makes no difference to you or the person you’re arguing with if the landing was real or staged so I’d second avoiding this kind of discussions.
Unless your friend is a scientist studying the moon rocks or a US astronaut that is
- Comment on The sun is a deadly laser... 6 months ago:
TIL.
I guess it depends on definition of the word “temperature”.
I was referring to the classical definition
In classical thermodynamics and kinetic theory, temperature reflects the average kinetic energy of the particles in a system, providing a quantitative measure of how energy is distributed among microscopic degrees of freedom.
- Comment on The sun is a deadly laser... 6 months ago:
Also its not true that space is “very very cold”.
If you are in space wearing space suite that doesn’t radiate heat properly, you could die from the excessive heat. Once dead your body stops producing heat and the existing heat eventually radiate away and your body freeze.
Space is neither hot or cold because these are property of matter. Since space has very little atoms, it technically has no temperature.

some ants when attacked do produce a small (probably by spraying chemicals that is supposed to paralyses/repel other small insects). that I can smell but I can’t smell an ant peacefully walking around.
- Comment on What if the USA decided to use another language as its *de facto* national language at it's founding? How would it affect the world? 7 months ago:
If only the government “decided”. no one will care and Americans will continue using English as usual.
If all Americans decided to speak Spanish. World would still continue to speak in English because currently all information in all fields are mostly in English.
If all Americans decided to speak Spanish and translated everything into Spanish then probably world will start speaking Spanish.
A real life example is when Romans conquered all Greek territories, all those nations continued for decades writing in Greek.
I know for a fact that in Egypt all taxes and government related stuff remained in Greek even decades after Arab conquest.

you could try running this command
