This laptop released in 2016 no longer receive OS updates. Which means I can't update Chrome Browser
  • For me it's not about the price, it's about owning your hardware in ways that allow you to easily install whatever you want. As for chromebooks, that's not the case and you need to hack your way around. In the case of phones, many vendors don't allow unlocking the bootloader. This kind of practices means that in many cases, completely useful (maybe old) hardware goes to the dumpster.

  • shrimp colour drama
  • It is how color works given our particular limitations. RGB and CMY only work because of our eyes, not because of nature. If somehow we could extract the frequency spectrum of the light that reaches our eyes we could know the chemical composition of some things when burned, particularly of the sun. On the other side, we are tricked into believing our screens can produce all possible colors when in reality they can produce only three.

  • Sci-hub Legal Case Status
  • The only reason new articles are not being uploaded is that the judge ordered it. During the case, one of the orders didn't contain the text for the parties to continue on the agreement and on that day sci-hub uploaded all the accumulated requests (2018-2020~). My guess is that whenever this case is closed, be it as a lose or as a win, sci-hub will resume uploading new articles.

  • Sci-hub Legal Case Status

    Sci-Hub is a site to access scholar articles that are behind a paywall. The site has been involved in several legal cases such as Elsevier et al. v. Sci-Hub et al. (2005), a lawsuit filled by the American Chemical Society which was lost by default after failing to defend itself, and many other complaints resulting in ISP blockings and domain names being lost.

    There is an ongoing lawsuit taking place in India at the Delhi High Court, but its site (working, not working) has been down several times in the last months and the transcript of cases after 2023-09-02 are "unavailable".

    Overall, the future of sci-hub being a legally recognized entity (by India) looks grim based on the available transcripts but, is there another source for the current status of the case?
