  • The fact that the cursor points at the correct pronunciation is purely by accident.

  • Me too, so this was a big revelation for me.

  • Also bad: When you ask XOR questions, but people think they're funny and give you OR answers instead.

  • Meow

  • "These lazy servants and their unintelligible bickering. I was asking for food and now this."

  • The hypocrisy is obvious, but coercing someone to have an abortion is not Pro-Choice.

  • Probably, but if it turns out on the higher end of that, say 0.8%, then that's also not nothing, considering that it's the result of firing one (1) dude.

  • Yeah, the way he does it is basically how everyone did it even 10 years ago. The tools were mostly the same then as they are now, with the exception of AI and the fact that handwriting wasn't as big a thing anymore when today's undergrads were in school. If you have a fluid and moderately quick handwriting, paper notes will typically be easier to take and more useful for revising the material later on.

  • Aw gee, that sounds like a really specific problem that would have really specific cause and solution, I wonder what it could be.

  • Considering his lack of opposable thumbs, I'm impressed with Champ's graph-drawing skills.

  • What an absolute unit, lol. Looks a bit like mine, also a Tuxedo that got the snippy-snap later in life with a distinctly unit-like look. (Though not as absolute as this one.)

  • I don't understand why you're getting downvoted. You're not wrong. Sci-Hub focuses on academic journal articles, which are a pretty novel phenomenon. The first journal was created in the 17th century, and journals didn't become the primary medium for publications until well into the 19th century. I wouldn't say academia is "biased" per se, but it's true that the academic publishing business is heavily dominated by western companies.

  • I was going to comment that Library Genesis went offline earlier this year, but I'm very happy to see that I'm wrong and it seems to be back.

  • Imagine working in a retirement home and one day one of the residents tells you "I am taking part in this clinical trial" and then she comes back as Doctor fucking Octopus.

  • Alright. slaps thighs Time to stand right in front of my seat for 10 minutes hunched over the seat before me, lest my co-passengers misinterpret my staying seated as an unwillingness to get out of here ASAP.

  • I have not. My knowledge about Detroit is entirely based on 8 Mile.

  • If the US had a state-sized version of Detroit, that would be a good comparison, too. Rust belt and such.

  • Accurate in more ways than one. "Howdy, pardner!" and cowboy hats is to the US what yodeling and slapping your Lederhosen is to Germany.
