Nothing in the Frontiers is reputable among scientists. It gets linked a lot on Reddit because it's open access, but scientists tend to view it as essentially the not-actually-peer-reviewed equivalent of a preprint. In the past, if all reviewers recommend rejection at Frontiers, the editor would be forcibly assigned new reviewers by the publishing staff. This would continue until the manuscript would get accepted. Not sure if that's still the same (I've blocked all Frontiers emails), but it's not correct to call a Frontiers journal a major reputable journal.

The pot in my ass

Maybe, but at least some folks have less of it. Me, for example. On Reddit, I generally assumed most folks were from the US, or bots. On here, I generally assume folks are equally--if not more--likely to be from a country in Europe, or Canada. I also see way more German representation here than I did on Reddit.

I actually don't know the way you're supposed to beat Super Metroid "correctly." I've always done what I ended up learning was a major sequence break resulting from a bunch of bomb jumps to get the power bomb early, and use that to get some other stuff that allows me to beat the game out of order.

I also never start Metroid Prime without immediately getting the double jump. I used to be up there on speed running that game. I don't play the player's choice or switch versions whenever I decide to crack it out. The original was literal perfection.

Mrs. Davis is one of my favorite shows period. That was a masterpiece.

I don't internet without uBlock. I honestly couldn't imagine it any other way.

ONLYOFFICE (sorry for the caps, poor name) has better docx compatibility than WPS or any other suite. It's the only thing I've found that can do everything in an academic style paper without issue. In addition, its source code is open (unlike WPS) and it has Zotero and Mendeley integrations. Its Zotero integration was better than its Mendeley integration last I checked.

I'm a professor and use ONLYOFFICE as the only word processor on my office computer.

Edit: apparently the Zotero plugin needs to be updated.

Same. I still occasionally browse Reddit, but I have a rule that I don't post or comment there. I do post and comment here.

ONLYOFFICE (sorry about the caps, poor name choice IMO) has even better docx compatibility, and its source code is open

I completely agree on all points.

 

This pauses disbursement of all federal loans and prohibits new scientific grant funding indefinitely. As written, this appears to apply to student loans, as those are disbursed via universities--not directly from the Dept of Education. It explicitly requires cancellation of awarded scientific grant funding that is in conflict with the current administration.
