  Tbh they already do everything they can, if you ever need a paper, e-mail the author and they’ll most likely send you the “last version” before publication they still hold the rights to distribute

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elsevier⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  One lecturer actually had notes on their slides for the differences between the latest version and the one before it of the course book, since the latest one wasn’t available for free anywhere but they wanted to use couple chapters from the new book (they scanned and distributed relevant parts themself)

  I feel like most of the academia in the research side would be happy to see it collapse, but the current system is too deeply tied in the money for any quick change

  I worked in academia for almost a decade and never met a researcher who wouldn’t openly support sci-hub (well, some warned their students that it was illegal to type these spesific search terms and click on the wrong link downloading the pdf for free)

  I get the point but the professor was still a dick for taking a life for a sick circus trick

  Taking into account all the alchemists that bathed in mercury, spoiled milk is pretty low on the ladder of the worst alchemist

  At the core it’s about social contract, and despite all of it’s flaws i think that even the countries in the imperial core have pretty ethical policies around (most) human remains, this is one of the least controversial areas of policy

  Unfortunately the change is pretty recent, and all the grave robberies were grandfathered in, so don’t ask for your indigenous grandfather’s remains, it was before the legislation

  In North Korea they charge you with a crime if you tell people how the law actually works
