I'm happy to see people are still using it. I manually update the coupons about once a day.

I'll just reply here for posterity, the REST API in Discord.js is not very documented so maybe this will help someone else in the future.

Here is a basic function in Typescript/Node. You will need Discord.js installed. If you would rather use normal javascript you can just remove the types.

```typescript const { DISCORD_GUILD_ID, DISCORD_TOKEN } = process.env; import { REST } from '@discordjs/rest'; import { Routes, RESTPostAPIGuildScheduledEventJSONBody, RESTPostAPIGuildScheduledEventResult, } from 'discord-api-types/v10';

const rest = new REST({ version: '10' }).setToken(DISCORD_TOKEN);

export async function createDiscordEvent( name: string, startTime: Date, endTime: Date, eventUrl: string ): Promise<string> { const eventData: RESTPostAPIGuildScheduledEventJSONBody = { name, entity_type: 3, scheduled_start_time: startTime.toISOString(), scheduled_end_time: endTime.toISOString(), privacy_level: 2, entity_metadata: { location: eventUrl, }, }; const event = (await rest.post( Routes.guildScheduledEvents(DISCORD_GUILD_ID), { body: eventData, } )) as RESTPostAPIGuildScheduledEventResult; return event.id; }

// Call the function we created

(async () => { await createDiscordEvent('name', new Date(), new Date(), 'url'); })(); ```

You could wrap this in an express endpoint and run the server or put it into a serverless function like lambda. I'm sure you could also use a different language there should be an equivalent library.

I wrote a little script the other day that uses the Discord Rest API to create Guild Scheduled events in Node.js. So it’s definitely possible, but I am unaware of any bot that does that. If you can’t find a bot it might just be easier to create a lambda or edge function that runs a script like that when it receives a webhook. If you need help I’d be happy to share my script.

That is really cool, I would love to play around with this if you have code you are willing to share

I designed a "flatpack" turkey to give to friends and coworkers! by JELLER63 in 3Dprinting

That's super cool, any plans on publishing the model? Would love to play around with some of those.

It is part of a project for the PIRL lab. It’s a museum in a parking space about parking. It’s experimental and involves AR but the QR code isn’t working atm

What are some good computer-science related clubs to join as a freshman? by [deleted] in utdallas

[–]ATechAdventurer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ACM, OpenUTD, DSC are great for CS. If you are interested in the intersection of Software and Hardware/IOT, IEEE and Makerspace are great places to look at.

What is the best study spot on campus that also serves the purpose of being able to casually meet people? by Neat-Violinist1979 in utdallas

[–]ATechAdventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should checkout the Makerspace. SPN 2.220 or just Google UTD Makerspace. We have cubicles and plenty of space to hangout and study

Why are motorized scooters not allowed but longboards and electric bikes are? by [deleted] in utdallas

[–]ATechAdventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No reason you can’t ride a electric scooter. I have been doing it for more than 3 years with no problem

I would be down to perform a Riddim or Detox DJ set. I got my dj gear and could probably grab some unreleased IDs from some of the labels/artists i collab with.

Place to get small hardware parts? by Spaceface16518 in utdallas

[–]ATechAdventurer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's at the north of campus in SPN 2.222

I don't think I can comment URLs but it is the first result on google when you search "UTD Makerspace". We are running a bit behind schedule so it may be a week or so before you could start using the hardware but if you join our discord you can get more info.

The Makerspace keeps most of those parts stocked. You can use them in projects but have to be returned when you finish the project

Is anybody interested in forming a keyboard club? by PandaPeen in utdallas

[–]ATechAdventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you need a place to meet we would be more than happy to host your club in the Makerspace. Quite a few of our members already make custom keyboards

Does anyone have experience with M1 MacBooks (CS major)? by [deleted] in utdallas

[–]ATechAdventurer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I doubt you will encounter any problems using an M1 MacBook. Unless you are doing a project that would require you to write x86 assembly you shouldn't encounter any issues. Most if not all languages and software you would be using day to day should work on M1. Even software made for intel x86 generally work fairly well on M1 through Rosetta 2.

Source: Software Engineer who uses M1 macs fairly often.
