funny how enabling letterboxing causes me to be in "under 100 samples" category
btw, is pixelRatio controllable somehow? how do I set it to 1, most common value?

wtf is "Maximum touch points" ?
> The digitiser's touch-point count, uncollapsed.
my laptop does not have touch screen, why am I not at 0?

interesting how Windows and Mac are almost at 100% of DRM enabled, meanwhile linux is only at 33%
anyone knows why is that?

I read they're not releasing the details - that seems good (for the public). Hopefully they're releasing it to privacy-friendly browser makers.

I wonder if this took into account GPU render-time fingerprinting? The minute timing differences in how you render an image are still used to identify you.

Recently did a WebGPU project and noticed Firefox polls GPU status on a 100ms timer, so you can't really use it for such as far as I can tell.
That said, Claude figured out that while Canvas copying of a loaded JPEG was out due to fingerprint resistance, it could copy it via WebGPU, so yeah...
