@scruiser @BlueMonday1984 funny how they mock left wingers for «that wasn't real communism» and then come up with the same excuses for liberal democracies and capitalism whenever one points out all the shit that came out of that. It's really ALWAYS projection with them, isn't it?

@Jarix oh, that, yeah. GOG is currently in a decent position because it has a launcher, but it's basically a “thin layer” on top of APIs that allow anyone to download the installers (plus some services to manage those installations). As long as the underlying APIs remain accessible, it's fine. (This is e.g. how lgogdownloader allows one to archive their whole library for offline installation.)

@Jarix @leave_it_blank offline installers (what you get from GOG) are forever. Ask my library of archived GOG installers.

@jewbacca117 @expatriado did they lose in court? If not, that's just an excuse.

A curious math problem I came up with: given a target, what's the fewest digits an integer must have (in a given base) to contain all integers from 0 to the target, as substrings?

http://wok.oblomov.eu/mathesis/number-substrings/

@mathematics @math@lemmy.ml @math@kbin.social

e.g. for a target of 19 a candidate representative would be 1011213141516171819 in base 10, that has 19 digits. Can it be done in less, or is $\sigma_10(19) = 19$?
Can we find a general rule? Any properties of this function?

@Telodzrum good to know, but I tend to avoid games without native ports, as a matter of principle. No Tux No Bux.

@theTractor @privacypride direi che queste compagnie hanno bruciato ogni ultimo atomo di fiducia che si poteva loro concedere. Sono pronto a scommettere che tra qualche anno salterà fuori che tracciavano e vendevano i dati anche di quelli che pagavano.

@theTractor @privacypride “e poi ti traccio lo stesso: perché fare i soldi una volta sola se li possiamo fare due volte?”

@glimse (joking aside, I wasn't aware tags would come through this way, I'll be more considerate about this in the future).

(I'll fault lemmy for this though: it reinterprets the HTML as Markdown but then fails at rendering it in the title.)
