A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

When Z-library got shut down I found Anna’s archive. It indexes many ebook sites. https://annas-archive.org/

I … did not know about this website and am happy to know of it. So often have I been researching something for personal curiosity only to be hit with a paywall in excess of what is reasonable for me to pay for a passing curiosity.

There's is also Jstor Open Content and Sci-hub, just fyi.

Edit: I forgot libgen (simply speaking, libgen is for books what sci-hub is for papers).

The Wikipedia article has a link that should always work.
