  • Hey, its me. Some people. I spend so much time looking for games that let me get that gambling psychology fix without allowing me to actually bet anything of value on them. Ranked ladders in games are peak, because the rank is meaningless but my stupid brain thinks its worth something so it feels like real gambling to win or lose it

  • One of those infinitely long, perfectly rigid, incompressible, conductive rods I read so much about while I was trying to learn the stuff you need to know before you can start studying black holes

  • Probably. IME the average low info conservative voter blindly trusts their favorite propagandists, so I think it's very meaningful and good when those propagandists try to jump off the sinking ship. Not in the sense that I suddenly trust them or think they're good people, but I'm also not so high on my own moral purity that I'm going to reject it or pretend it doesn't benefit me and my worldview.

  • Honestly I'm happy to hear this. My dad watches his show and as much as he denies it, tends to parrot whatever carlson says. I guess we'll see if his audienceship survives the changing political party

  • I'd definitely avoid using the gov email address. This may be another difference between my field and what you are doing, but if a .gov emailed me asking for my work I'd redirect them to my security manager, expecting it to be one of those "oops you got phished, be more careful!" type of cyber training emails. I'd also offer that you might look up the person you're emailing; I've published under at least 2 different student email addresses that I no longer have access to. If you happen to know my name you'll find my current contact info pretty quickly on google, but if you email gust@undergrad.edu that email is going straight into the void

  • Very true. I've benefited from doing that countless times, and I keep final drafts of all of my work in folders organized by publisher title explicitly so that I can pass it forward if anybody ever emails me looking for something ive written that is now behind a paywall

    (I deleted my last comment because it ended up more vitriolic than I want on the internet forever, but for anybody reading this afterwards the gist of my deleted comment earlier in the thread was "I do not respect academic publishers")

  • Meh. My general opinion on academic publishers is such that I'd rather pirate it to avoid giving them the page view anyway. Entities that exist to gate knowledge can universally go fuck themselves

  • In case somebody made the meme because they need that paper and couldnt get it, enjoy.

    Edit: generally, you can find a ton of hard to get papers by searching the first 5 or 6 words of the title plus "pdf" , "reasearchgate", or "arxiv" at the end of the search string

  • It started off a completely fucking rotten death cult and capitalism made it worse. Seems pretty cut and dry to me

  • Agree. I consider myself a very good home chef. I got there by screwing up many, many meals, learning what I did wrong, then covering them in enough sriracha to hide the taste of whatever abomination I just made because I was still broke and had to eat it. Eventually the abominations started becoming edible and even tasty, and the sriracha went away

  • What a strange thing to do. Completely unrelated, I'm gonna go find some smooth stones to skip on a lake because it looks cool and I like the sound

  • Sounds like the birds were still having more fun
