In recent years, rightsholders have made several attempts to shut the site down. Court orders have led to LibGen being blocked in several countries, but completely eliminating the threat has been extremely difficult. This is partly because the identities of those running it remains unknown.
In 2017, Elsevier won a court case against LibGen and Sci-Hub in a New York federal court, which awarded the publisher $15 million in damages. However, both shadow libraries remained online and continue to operate to this day.
The lawsuit was stalled for months because LibGen’s anonymous operators didn’t respond. With no other viable options left, the publishers filed a motion for a default judgment in their favor.
Keep it up, LibGen
If they can, I’m going to buy a whole bunch of vibrators that charge via USB
You actually can write on a newspaper
We don’t put US in front of other acronyms like that. SC, DoJ, EPA, etc. Putting it in front of SS is just making it obvious you don’t want it to be called SS lol

You can always tell when someone’s pickup is just for show. This one definitely isn’t
Here in Lansing, Big Penny has been eating so well, someone put up a scoreboard
They’re the same places with the high incarceration rates. They don’t really care what they’re doing to minorities, as long as it’s cruel
Must be disappointed both China and Taiwan medaled at the Olympics, but they didn’t
I don’t really care about music, but my fiancee loves the SNW theme so much that whenever I’m rewatching the show without her, she’ll hear it, and come watch it with me, so that one
Apple is probably the most common interpretation because a lot of languages use it as kind of a vague fruit term, and the Bible has been retranslated and reinterpreted roughly one million times. The French call potatoes apples
A pineapple leaf on its own could be any kind of long thin leaf though. It’s only on a pineapple that they’re obvious
Depends on where you live. We don’t have any oaks where I grew up. I couldn’t tell you what their leaves look like
Being able to reproduce it from memory is different from recognizing it though
I used to live in a place like where you do now. There’s a chance you’ll run into someone cool, but it’s very low. I had to move to the city to form an actual friend group
Any time you would use “They say,” like “You know what they say,” is referring to the general populous
There are many reasons to oppose the Olympics, but that the athletes are wasting their time and effort is not one of them
Upvoted because this is definitely an unpopular opinion
I don’t think Trump and his ilk are known for being attractive
