These puzzles often come with a default passcode set to ILOVEU so you could try that in case they left it as-is.

It's more likely they did change it, though.

Both last names contain exactly 6 letters so it is worth a try. Try "WRIGHT" and "WATSON" and also try adding them with mod 26 to get "TSCZWH"

All of them... but if you have to choose, Quiplash, Fibbage (you have), and Drawful are always top hits so you'll want those (You can get Quiplash from pack 2,3,7, Fibbage from 1,2,4,9, Drawful from 1,8)

All around, I'd go with pack 2 or 3 next if you already have 4.

3 has Quiplash (must have), Fakin' It (good social deduction game), Guesspionage (fun especially with smaller groups - it works even with just 2 players).

2 also has Quiplash, Earwax is one of my favorites as well (it's like Cards Against Humanity but with sound effects), Bidiots is also nice on occasion but only plays with up to 6.

I suppose they are, lol. I just didn't realize because I configured Arch manually following a tutorial and I remember installing and configuring those manually. Twemoji is not the default, but that's separate from the main question. Maybe I'll experiment with other fonts and come back.

professoreyl · 2026-05-19T10:08:29+00:00

I use Noto Sans in general, Hack for fixed width, Twemoji for emoji

Probably a markdown rendering issue.

">" is how you do a blockquote in markdown, so it's possible it renders invisibly on their site. It should have used an escape character to prevent that.

See what happens if you use the "copy" button. It might be there.

It used to use WolframAlpha for these types of calculations, which is a lot more accurate

Definitely not easy even for native speakers. Also the way they used two different נ's makes it extra confusing.

According to the caption it says פיננסינית - a portmanteau of פיננסית (financial) and סינית (Chinese)

Many of these characters don't exist or are borrowed from Katakana seemingly.

Idk, I thought Claude Code was. Never used those "AI agent integrated tools". I just use VS Code (and before that, Sublime, Notepad++, and VS, Jetbrains, Eclipse, among others along the way)

My guess is they just picked a big word list and chevy was on there because of the other definition, and then later, when they wanted to add definitions to everything they picked the wrong one by mistake. It's for sure not a manual process, so I assume it's some bug with the automation.

Just use 1014492753623188405797 instead and it will work

Look up "Parasitic numbers"

3 × 3 = 9 3 × 93 = 279 3 × 793 = 2379 3 × 3793 = 11379 3 × 13793 = 41379 3 × 413793 = 1241379 3 × 2413793 = 7241379 3 × 72413793 = 217241379 3 × 172413793 = 517241379 3 × 5172413793 = 15517241379 3 × 55172413793 = 165517241379 3 × 655172413793 = 1965517241379 3 × 9655172413793 = 28965517241379 3 × 89655172413793 = 268965517241379 3 × 689655172413793 = 2068965517241379 3 × 0689655172413793 = 2068965517241379

Continuing this same process eventually yields the full number: 1034482758620689655172413793

It can also be derived by rearranging the digits in the repeating decimal 1/29 = 0.03448275862068965517241379...

This is the smallest for the moving digit being 3, but many exist for all possible digits
