I need some books paywalled behind Oxford Politics Trove and they aren’t on Anna’s lib, Zlib, Libgen, Memory of the World, Aaarg, or the Internet Archive. Not sure to whom else to turn to. I hate that knowledge like this is paywalled, and I highly doubt the authors will be paid if I pay the highway robbery of a price.
“reality” as in extremely exaggerated deviations from the ellipsoid. Otherwise it would just look like a smooth sphere. Earth has 12’700 km diameter. From the shallowest point to mount everest are just about 20 km. That is a 0.15 % change. You would see nothing.
I think that would be too much. A bowling ball is really smooth. It would not roll as well with such deviations all over the place.
At a diameter of 22 cm, the roughness would have to be in the order of 0.3 mm, which would not just be visible due to the distorted reflections, it would even be audible while rolling.
Okay, so I was making chicken soup from stock I had made using a (lightly,) browned carcus and neck. just before dumping the the dumplings into it, the stock’s color was a nice light brown. I added about 1/4 cup of lemon juice, turned my back for 30 seconds after a stir and it turned it an almost milky-off white. Eventually it...
People get old, they do not want this to change. That is where it comes from. Regardless of the persons status. It is also irrelevant where it comes from.
Most people would fail to understand the question. So many will flip the switch a bunch of times randomly. In other words: This would be super frustrating for the villain.
Maybe this was Photoshop, but some do actually paint their cats (and other animals). They do all sorts of fucked up stuff to animals for upvotes/fame/money so please don’t upvote that shit.
After 16 years of living in my city, they will finally have city-wide fiber internet. I’m pretty stoked because the fastest internet I could possibly have is a WISP at 50gbps down and 10gbps up. Now I will finally have gigabit but it’s through the city, and I’m wondering if they will be more strict on illegal content...

Where to turn to if I need books that are paywalled behind overly expensive academic portals?

[question] for the chemistry types- making chicken soup. Why did lemon juice turn the light brown chicken stock almost white?

What are your thoughts on fiber through the city?
