    The ability to alter the tracking is an exploit, not a feature. Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad it’s possible, but it seems more a result of a lazy implementation rather than a generous choice.

    Not any more than any other tracking method.

    This isn’t true. There are more opaque ways to track this like cookies, redirects (triggering an api call), and scripts. These could also be exploited depending on how they’re done, but it would be way less obvious than just changing the URI.

    It just seems like they chose the simplest method, thus hampering the effectiveness of their greed.






  • This latest generation of ARC GPUs is very promising. I’m really glad there’s finally some good budget gaming GPUs out there. Intel has really committed to this product line, and I really hope it continues to pay off.

    The price/performance is fantastic, the power efficiency is decent, and the feature set is way beyond expectations–almost caught up with Nvidia on their second attempt. The rate of improvement is impressive.

    I have some friends still on GTX 10 series cards that would love this upgrade. That being said, personally, there’s no reason for me to switch yet. As soon as Intel has something that can beat an RTX 3080Ti via higher tiers or next gen, I’ll gladly ditch Nvidia.
