For a long time there was an assumption that every state should have a publicly-owned research university offering graduate education in every field of scholarly inquiry. That assumption had been dying a slow death since 2008, but it is truly gone now.
"The University of Oregon is considering phasing out ... some or all of the master’s and doctoral programs offered in History, Romance Languages, Folklore, Comparative Literature, Classics, and German and Scandinavian" bit.ly/4eCYxvx
My best attempt at explaining what a Grief verification means to MCSR fans

Imagine someone discovers an extremely technical SSG seed route that's basically impossible for a human to pull off but would guarantee a 30 second cut to the wr. And someone has now finally done it after two and a half years of playing it

#GeometryDash at this point I'm just gonna speak my mind because this is just starting to be annoying. Go away with your vibecoded and AI generated bullshit from this community. I'm a Geode index staff and we basically on average reject roughly 10 mods daily for being vibecode. Now I also see tweets of people finding ways to AI generate levels. I think I speak for a very large portion of the community when I say:
We don't want your slob, either learn to do it the real way or gtfo.
And go away with your arguments of "it's not really that bad". These things have trained on each other like 50x different times by now, everything makes the same mistakes over and over and over again and since y'all don't even know wtf it did you don't spot it and thus leave in things like:
- Stolen code/art.
- Vulnerabilities.
- When it comes to visual stuff literally the same UI every single god damn time.
Hell I have spotted like 8 of these vibecoded shitmods trying to ship a literal RCE or a website interface where the control panel login is "admin" "password".
We are getting cooked in Iowa ☹️
BREAKING: ExxonMobil's 275,000 barrel per day Joliet oil refinery in Illinois has suffered a "total power outage," with heavy black smoke from emergency flaring visible for miles, as US diesel sits at a record $6.20 a gallon, per GasBuddy.
A total power outage at a refinery this size is highly unusual. It forces an emergency shutdown of every unit at once, with the crude and intermediates in the system flared off, which is the smoke. BP's Whiting refinery in Indiana, the largest in the Midwest, is already partially down for maintenance, putting pressure on Great Lakes gasoline and diesel supply.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Joliet refinery's power outage occurred on Sunday with power restored that evening, triggering flaring. Diesel prices are at a record high above $6/gal. BP's Whiting refinery is operating during a months-long union lockout and is not down for maintenance. cbsnews.com/chicago/news/e… reuters.com/business/energ… bp.com/en_us/whiting-…
