[OT] Ping individual.net Subsrcibers

[Blinky the Shark]

I'm pretty sure some of the group besides me is using individual.net
servers. This is from a friend and fellow nin user: there's some .pif
malware being circulated, today, being represented as being from
individual net. Heads up. Details:

You must be psychic
I do. Now how did you know?

See if you can work this out

It's a very popular service; I believe it's been recommended here (by
me and others); I believe it was further discussed when it went pay-only
last month (actually starting April 1).

I don't usually bother with flash; summary or HTML equiv?

Cheers.

Doesn't really bother me here on Linux, either.

Joking...

Sorry, you have to see it, and I don't know of a html equivalent... It's
actually some program that reads your mind (quite good). Of course, there's
a catch
Just fun

If it's the guesses-your-card(s) one, I know how it works.

You think of a two digit number. Let's call that number M.

M is two digits long. We'll call the first digit A and the second digit B.

It asks you to subtract (A+B) from M to get a "final number" which we'll
call F. F = M-(A+B).

Now, M = 10*A + B, so

F = 10*A + B - (A+B)
= 10*A + B - A - B
= 9*A

Which means that F is always a multiple of 9.

Check all the multiples of 9 in the table: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, ...

Notice they all have the same symbol beside them.

No, it's another one, more subtle

Indeed
Took me a while before I got it though...
