I wish I saw this first. I’m very prone to off-by-one errors.

I opened the comments thinking that I solved it, then some comments with broken spoiler tags essentially spoiled the actual answer for me, despite my best efforts to ignore them.

With these types of puzzles, I normally start looking for solutions that don’t just involve the obvious operations. Had I seen your comment first, I would’ve continued playing with the first thing I noticed (and later abandoned for the wrong solution) and I think I would’ve got there by myself eventually.

Either others need to be more mindful of their spoiler tags, or I need to stop using Sync for Lemmy. It’s probably the latter; I’ve seen such weird formatting that only makes sense if I assume Sync’s Markdown renderer is broken.

Sounds fine to me, if this is a picture of a Twitter-like site then I don’t really see an issue

the original was twitter

As in, the post was originally on Twitter? I’m not sure what this means

Not only that, but they use probably the most not-shit age assurance method (adding a credit card to your account).

Katie Hopkins

That’s a name I’ve had the pleasure of not seeing or hearing for a very long time.

Ahh, that makes sense, thanks!

Nah it’s fine, I’m getting used to having to find workarounds to use my VPN. For example, my GP’s online system blocks any connections from outside the UK so I end up using my work laptop

Oh, does Imgur not block Proton? I thought all VPN IPs were in a list somewhere and blocked en-masse, I wonder why Mullvad doesn’t work then

Can someone repost this using something other than Imgur? They block the UK and Mullvad (though if someone is using Mullvad and can access it, let me know what server you’re using please)

EDIT: nevermind, I can see it through the web version of Lemmy, just not through Sync or Imgur directly

Why is the text of the summary completely different from the contents of the article?

I thought as much! Didn’t want to assume though just in case. I’ve gone through that book twice and I want to look at adding types to my implementation. Good luck!

You writing an interpreter/VM? For what language?

Maybe I got a little too curious, but that reg number brings up a different car so I wonder what’s up with that

I don’t think it is. I think you just missed that Merc’s original comment was a joke about the misspelling in the OP, not an actual description of Bluesky

D. 64% of Democrats that have a friend in the GOP and the 82% of GOP that say they do are one to Many.

Maybe the relationship is one-to-one and actually there are way more people willing to identify as a Democrat 🤷🏿‍♂️

(I don’t actually think this, just a random thought)

S2 finale spoiler: >!they even got the colours right!<

I think using a method of proportional representation is the most effective defence against gerrymandering. You cannot have unrepresentative elections when the system has representation built into it.

However, that would be difficult to do in the US from what I understand. There would need to be several changes to the law to give it a fighting chance.

I’ve had my Google account for over a decade. At some point, I noticed my YouTube handle was just my name, and I don’t remember setting it to that.

On pretty much all websites, I have a default username I try to use, but I don’t remember getting that option when making a Google account

Microsoft Windows was originally called “Wind OS”; the wavy logos from the earlier versions is supposed to be a flag waving in the wind. Consumers kept calling it Windos; eventually Microsoft conceded that the name had stuck and changed it to Windows for 3.1
