I'm not sure your quote is having the impact you think - yes, we give aid not just for moral reasons but to further extend our influence in region. That's a big part of what has made the US the absolute powerhouse that it is - through hegemony, soft power, and hard power. Hard power in the ME has failed, so now we are trying soft power and hegemony

He slashed damn near 2/3 of the company, their HRIS systems were in disarray, they removed much of the force that made it advertiser friendly, came up with obscene API pricing (no doubt to try and cash in on LLM companies), and have failed to pay rent and server costs. Elon took a flawed business model and made it significantly worse all while giving a middle finger to their advertisers which is overwhelmingly their primary revenue source.

Is it still aimed primarily at HDDs or does it have SSD utilities now? As I understand it, most of its wiping methods are/we're geared toward HDDs

There are nearly 1L metal cans though! Crowlers are typically 32oz so just shy of a liter

Very different. I haven't used FreeCAD much but it is far more visual and full-featured (I believe it even has some simulation features for moving parts) where OpenSCAD is really just primitive shapes and scripting but for my workflows (mostly creating 3D printed parts) it works well

OpenSCAD and Gitlab. I can quickly iterate on designs through code, push it to my Gitlab instance, and have my CI/CD pipelines pick it up, render it, and automatically slice it in some common profiles to send to Octoprint

Ehh, I pretty much only drink water and never soda and I agree with La Croix being irritably mildly flavored trash.

And they were right, it's fucking dope. Doubt they'll recoup costs given Vegas as a whole is dying in favor of online gambling / sports betting and more local entertainment options

Slacks are legitimately comfy as hell

I'm well aware - as a public university things are a bit different as they are agents of the state so this becomes a free speech issue. Also, if a university's student internet is the same network containing PII systems like their student records, there are much bigger problems. That's why I mentioned that this action without any legislation that would curtail Bytedance's data collection presents a student rights conundrum. The app does not (as far as we are aware) inject or capture information from the users network but rather the user themselves which they have consented to. The larger issue is whether or not the US should allow foreign entities to collect this info and that's not something the university should be able to decide but rather the state and federal regulatory agencies and legislatures

Clemson isn't private, it's public. It is certainly their prerogative to secure their network and their users' data but there are definitely concerns over government censorship. I don't think this issue is as black and white as people ITT are making it out to be and absent a larger policy stance that would van TikTok or it's practices, I'm not sure this is the right move though I understand their position given the inaction of state and national legislatures in banning foreign spyware
