Did they discharge the gun? If so, was it towards anyone? If so, who was it towards and what was the intent? Was anyone harmed during that discharge?

It's not clear that this is political. The Venn diagram for people against ICE's existence, and those that are left leaning, is a near perfect circle. The only group against ICE are left leaning, so they would be the only ones to investigate, regarding any actions against ICE.
I suspect you encountered a piezo speaker [1] before a printer. ;)
A fairly massive undertaking for existing code, which jit was supposed to be useful for.
And, for that reason, inkjets work with a much wider variety of liquids. Taken to the extreme, you have full color 3d prints with incredible precision: https://youtu.be/4IkvzMJihuY
For a deep dive of inkjets, there's a conference that posts talks: https://youtube.com/@theijc
And, a shallower dive of the complexities of inks is the great "engineerguy": https://youtu.be/-DckWNwE7R4

If that's true, something has clearly gone wildly wrong with the, most likely several, departments involved/created with maintaining this. I suspect if you look at the breakdown, it's 90% administrative costs, with the rest being inflated Cisco contracts, or whatever other parasite latched on.
As others have said, it's been archived already.
> This isn’t the first time the environmental agency has tried to shutter the online web archive. In late January 2022, the Biden administration EPA announced plans to discontinue the online repository, citing burdensome financial upkeep; through a Freedom of Information Act request, Gehrke was able to determine that the agency spent roughly $2 million a year to maintain it. A coalition of environmentalists, historians, and librarians swiftly condemned the decision, with groups like the EDGI and American Society for Environmental History calling the announcement “alarming” and cause for a “tremendous gap” in the historical record.
> After five months of public backlash, the EPA acquiesced, in part by announcing it would delay the web archive’s retirement by one year to July 2023.
I also think there's been a drastic shift in the working culture of tech/engineering spaces, in general, over the last 15 years. From my experience, it's definitely drifted away from a bunch of nerds solving problems to something more towards emotional/personal/politics. I recently saw someone cry when a person very kindly asked them to explain a discrepancy. "Back in my day" people would just state facts, point out flaws, and argue a bit, and have fun doing it, for better or worse.
And, I've been using these for around 9 years. A few I tried most definitely did re-enable on exit. Not sure why file count is a concern, or especially LOC (a truly horrendous metric to target, with the outcome being unintelligible code golf when optimized for). All that I used were exactly one file I was concerned with: a binary or shell script.
This has become strange. Cheers!

First one I used was around 9 years ago. Nearly melted my backpack with the hot Intel CPU!
If you don't want to install anything, you can disable sleep with the built in tools: sudo pmset -a disablesleep 1
But yes, they say it's green energy requirements/expansion. But, they're also very good at making excuses, including when they're old equipment erases whole towns due to fires they started, from leaving it all unmaintained to help with those record profits.
No, I'm saying that most people are enjoying the benefits of data centers, without knowing they're contributing to the problem, including hyper scalars, which aren't running idle. The average person is using them indirectly (via media, software, services the use, generated by AI) and directly (go talk to a teen to understand the scale of AI use).
This is the same argument for people being upset that China pollutes so much as they sit on their furniture made with petroleum based plastics, from China, wearing shoes manufactured in China, while typing the message on an iPhone made in China.
Since the awareness is so low, I think a useful question to include in the poll would have been "Do you use AI or data centers?"
And, I don't see how this is related to oligarchs. Without the data centers, all the services would be more expensive. They're a very simple concept: bulk purchased compute components with cheap industrial electric rates.
The utility monopolies are partly/mostly to blame for this. Their rates have become so disconnected from reality that it's cheaper to install your own power generation. They've all been posting record profits, up 50% where I am, in the last 5 years, as rates continue to increase.
I'm sure the utility companies are ecstatic how the blame as been put squarely on data centers.
What's this about? I can't find anything, except some random Reddit posts.
