Science works best when information is not restricted.

but capitalism does not. who do the police and politicians work for?

Taalnazi@lemmy.world · 22 pts · 1y

ACAB

Just ignore the police in this regard. They should go after the actual predators, those who put up that "Online Wank Policing" Act.

Exactly. Just tell them your training an llm

Yes I know this wouldn't fly in reality but I'll scream hypocrisy from the top of any tree

Yes, but if they convict you, the copyright holders can use your case as a precedent for suing the AI companies. At least that's the way I understand it, I don't live in a country with precedent law.

Freedom for me but not for thee

Here's another trick for obtaining free articles: write an email to the author and ask for a copy. We have to pay to publish on journals and don't see a dime, so we really don't care if you pirate it.

And wait for days to weeks if it didn't just go into the spam folder?

Just put the penultimate draft on arxiv or researchgate like the rest of us.

Then why publish with terms like that? Aren't there better alternatives like arxiv?

Nikelui@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 363d

I don't know. Is arxiv peer-reviewed? The "best" solution I can come up with is paying the extra 500$ fee to publish under open license, if the journal allows you.

All knowledge should be free and unrestricted, pirating papers is completely morally and ethically justified.

I owe my master's degree to that website

Does the "email the paper authors" actually work? I've tried it lik twice but never got a response πŸ˜”

flora_explora@beehaw.org · 7 pts · 1y

Well, many people are busy, but yeah it should usually work. ResearchGate makes this even easier, because you can directly see who is requesting a paper and sometimes as an author you've got the paywalled paper already uploaded in researchgate.

Grimy@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y

I remember my first week using research gate and spamming the request paper button.

Unrelated, but I saw my neighbor chasing his kid, who’s probably like 8, full speed down the street and the kid was actually pretty fast

Baby legs are no joke! You blink and they're already halfway across the house. It only gets worse as they get older.

moseschrute@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 1y

I don’t have kids, but as a kid that got older can confirm this is true. Until you get slow again

It's forbidden to read texts not redacted sanitized reviewed by the Minitru

If cops could read they'd be very upset
