Interesting concept for an open collaboration!

Should also address the misuse of the points when some large researcher doesn’t care to peer review and may give power to someone else, or hacking leading to spending of points, or whatever threats there can be

This I generally approve, if availability is good enough

I’d start with the notion that the distance from Jupiter to Earth is very much not a constant value, and can be many times different depending on both planets’ positions around the Sun.

Probably won’t take off because scientists need reputable journals and not some random fediverse publishers.

Is it fucked up? Absolutely. But something else needs to be changed before this would be possible.

Also, why not ditch the concept of a “publisher” to begin with? Why not have a national or international article index, graded by the article level? It’s not that we live in a paper era, and for those who still need it, we can always print.

Woah, impressive! Trying to get back on reading track myself, and this is something to be proud of!

I’m doing amazing, a dawn of love, work doing great, and generally life is in a very good place rn

And you?

One half of the post is prepper mentality and the other is the rant about good old times.

The world changes forever, and no amount of throwing back will get you where the world has been. And no, Internet isn’t going anywhere, it’s not a singular clearly defined entity, but rather a giant decentralized system.

Nothing, just a year in the future

So heartwarming to see some of the key open-source projects having more than enough for development! Yay for the devs!

And not etching them as well.

Fate points sound cool, ngl

2,5" drives are usually slower, but still about 5400rpm, which is on par with many NAS-specific 3,5" drives.

Also, you show Barracudas here, and I’d warn against them in a NAS environment. If you pick among Seagates, Ironwolf series might be what you need; otherwise, WD Reds reign supreme, just check that the specific drive you’re looking for uses CMR, not SMR.

Wow, interesting

It’s like me figuring out after 23 years that most people don’t sneeze looking at the sun

Let’s just say every device advertising it could work on X meters (square, cubic, whatever) is a lie.

What are the conditions? How pronounced you expect your result to be?

This is especially funny with heaters, for example, when heaters of the same power advertise vastly different area of effect and people go “Oh! This 1500W heater can heat up 50 square meters, so much better than this 2000W heater advertised for 30 square meters!”

Most likely, they aren’t artisan :D

Unless you’re French, that is. I’d sell my soul for a good French baguette right now.

Exactly!

Fair enough; however, to me it’s only optimal when there are no alternatives.

But to each their own.

I’d say he was a scientist - just not part of academia :)

We have to separate science and academia, especially when we talk about the past.
