This change has basically no effect for anyone on a free workspace. Since you can't read those messages anyway. It only matters if you were going to go paid.

I think it's more likely that slack has decided that all free workspaces that would upgrade, probably have, and they don't want to store all those messages that aren't going to be read anyway.

I have to be honest, i much prefer only having to look once during the sale. Having to check every 6 hours kind required you to plan your day to check for deals.

She adds chapters, I think not so you can skip ahead, but so you know good places for pee breaks.

Starting June 2024, iFixit will no longer be Samsung’s designated third-party parts and tools distributor. Also starting next month, we will no longer have a quantity limit of seven Samsung parts per repair shop per quarter.

Wow that is quite a limit Samsung. I can see why no one would want to be a partner with them. (Which was obviously the point.)

In the how this works section they detail that it comes from MDM solutions. In English this is a feature for it admins of companies who use the intune management software from Microsoft. You probably need pro or better to even use the feature.

At a quick glance, it looks to be a way of whitelisting domains at a DNS level, but with the added feature of having allowed DNS servers.

It's almost like trying to squish different security architectures on top of each other doesn't work well. It's a nice idea, but it was either not going to work smoothly or be a big security issue.

I find it surprising that existed. Not an unreasonable change.

For the lazy, when a game sold "advanced access" as part of a pre-purchase; game time before release didn't count to the 2h refund limit. So you could play eg 10h of a game, then refund it on release. This is them fixing it.

It's all allocated, but not all those allocations are for routing on the internet. Eg private ranges, localhost space, multicast, experimental ranges. Unfortunately you can't repurpose those ranges as there is already kit out there that is hard coded to treat them a particular way.

So I managed to get part 1 of the day, but it took 2 seconds to run on the real input, which is a bad sign.

I can't see any kind of optimisation that means I can skip checks and know how many combinations are in those skipped checks (aside from 0.) I can bail out of branches of combinations if the info so far won't fit, but that still leads me to visiting every valid combination which in one of the examples is 500k. (And probably way more in the input, since if I can't complete the example near instantly the input is not happening.)

Right now I take the string, then replace the first instance of a ? with the two possible options. Check it matches the check digits so far then use recursion on those two strings.

I can try to optimise the matching, but I don't think that solves the real problem of visiting every combination.

I don't think (or hope) it's just bad code but this is my code so far (python.)

edit:

spoilera cache was the solution!

I'm sure that commit will be fixed in sort order and not remain that way until it becomes a "we don't know why, but just do this bit."

I think you report to your nation's Data Protection Centre, each member has their own that takes the reports. If I was still in the EU I would have put more time into finding out how reports work.

IIRC the EU also ruled that burying the rejection options under additional links counts as a violation. Hence why Google now has a Reject button next to the accept button. Most sites still do that.

Considering how many startrek memes I see on lemmy, I'm surprised this was the original meme.
