The fingerprint comes from your client.

So, if you use a browser, it will give away your operating system and quite some stuff more.
Pretty much every site you visit can do this, learn more about this here:

Persistent cookies can track you over different sites, that check for this cookie.
It’s not like the cookie has a life of its own, but different sites can check for that cookie and then they can report back to a server, so this server knows which sites you’ve accessed.

If you’re using a client app, like the official Reddit app, on your smartphone, it will have some permissions requested and that will be the data it has access to.
If it is running always in the background and has access to your location data, it potentially track your real world location.
If it wants to be linked with your Google/Apple account, it (maybe? (probably depends on the range of access requested)) has access to your real name.

But else, it can “only” gather data, that will help to identify you again - but this you is only your username.
Although I’m not sure how Reddit currently handles registrations, and if they now demand some real name.

But for example with browser fingerprints, they can with some probability identify the device again, but can’t really say who you are - like with a real name.

But every service you visit in the internet, independent of by browser or app, will see your IP - your numerical internet address, with which your devices communicate with any other device in the internet.
So, if you access a homepage, the web server will reply to your device by using your IP address, because that’s where the request came from and else it wouldn’t be able to send you the data you requested - like the data (text, images, code) of the homepage you want to access

The relation between your real name and the IP is known by your internet service provider (ISP) and for example law enforcement can get access to your real name, when they have your IP, but a typical homepage can’t get to that data.

So they’ll know that you accessed their homepage twice (and maybe some partner Homepages, with which they share this data), but they can’t really say who you are in the real.

For quite some time private IPs were also dynamic. So with every dial-in you’d get a new IP.
By now this isn’t the case anymore with many providers and connection types.
I’m still paying for a (rather) stable IP though, so I can access my server reliably with the same address - but you can also set up a script that updates a domain (like a www/“Internet” address) and you don’t need the IP, just like you can access google.com without knowing the IP of that server

Ok, that has gotten a bit off of topic, but I hope, it brought you some more understanding how those things work

If I got your question completely wrong, sorry.
Maybe I can give you better information, when you clarify where I went wrong
If someone sees, that I’m providing wrong or outdated information, please correct me :⁠-⁠)

Interesting how Telegram isn’t part of the attack
I guess, they already found way in or even have direct access

Yeah, it’s a love bite - a really beautiful one also

My now sadly deceased cat was a fucking genius
But I’m not…he tried to tell me stories, but I never really understood what he meant

Single moews were easier to interpret, as he had a range of “hell yes” to “fuck off”

From young age I always tried to use the same words for things, and when this was established, I started combining them.

He was very much aware of what I was saying, when I sticked to our vocabulary and would act accordingly - sometimes by complaining, that he didn’t do anything and I’m in the wrong.

Was (and still is) a fucking hard time losing him …

Can just confirm the other comment

GrapheneOS is serving me very well
No problems (currently) with banking apps either

I’m very happy with it - although a real Linux phone would be really cool

Yeah, gin is probably a personally preference
For me it tastes like perfumed alcohol

I like my alcohol more… honest

Same for me

Was working at a fast food stand at night in my youth (well, for nearly 10 years) and Jägermeister was the only shot we had
So I drank that with the customer

Don’t even want to look at it anymore…

Yeah, they are getting used to stuff

But the bush with the nest of the wild wasps on my way to the supermarket always screams up, when I pass by

Luckily they don’t attack though, because they’re kinda used to it

Thank you!

Rei is for me a little girl controlling large robots, with a really concerning backstory

What is this REI you speak of?

Maybe I’m just out of the loop - and hope for not being alone in it

Ah, just better pimples, which you often can find amass on ass!

I’m not sure, if a hypothetical lotto win is really the reason or even the excuse - anymore?

I have one as a media server

I loved my Pulse 15 (Gen 1) from Tuxedo

It was a performance monster and still had amazing battery life.
But as others have said, they only take some finished Clevo models - like most small distributors, who can’t afford their own factory.

But they verify that everything runs with Linux, else they sometimes patch stuff.

And I need to highlight their support!
After years with my Pulse 15 the battery became a pillow, because I used a USB C charger that wasn’t working right (always switched on and off, which killed the battery)
Pretty much without questions asked I got a new battery for free.

Now I have it to my nephew, who enjoys Minecraft on this laptop (still Linux), but the CMOS battery was dead.
Got that one for free as well after warranty

So, I can’t really complain about them.
Actually the opposite.

But I still settled for a Framework 16, because I wanted something different and the models at that time weren’t fitting my use case…

As said, I was young…

I was 16 and saved all my money for my own laptop.

Was looking at a MacBook Pro, which was sold on eBay as an outlet unit with minor defects (like scratches) for a third less.

Bought it and sent my money through Western Union just to never see it - or any laptop - again

16 year old me was more than heart broken…

Does it run on Linux?

Yeah, they don’t even trust themselves!
Also just looking for falsification…

Do your will

If you lose the ability to do your own will, and only do what is expected from you, that’s when you lose yourself

Disregard society. Doesn’t matter if you’re currently confirming or not, when you do something.

You do it, because of your own will.

I think, with that ethic base framework, you can just be yourself.

Ah, some piercings in some places can feel very nice

But I’m with you on the Ideology stuff - especially the fascism part
