hub caps
Sci-Hub is a shadow library website that provides free access to millions of research papers, without regard to copyright, by bypassing publishers' paywalls in various ways. It does not provide access to books. Sci-Hub was founded in Kazakhstan by Alexandra Elbakyan in 2011, in response to the high cost of research papers behind paywalls (see Serials crisis). The site is extensively used worldwide. In September 2019, the site's operator(s) said that it served approximately 400,000 requests per day. Sci-Hub has been estimated to contain 95% of all scholarly publications with issued DOI numbers. Sci-Hub reported on 15 July 2022 that its collection comprises 88,343,822 files.Sci-Hub and Elbakyan were sued twice for copyright infringement in the United States, in 2015 and 2017, and lost both cases by default, leading to loss of some of its Internet domain names. The site has cycled through different domain names since then.Sci-Hub has been lauded by some in the scientific, academic, and publishing communities for providing access to knowledge generated by the scientific community, which is usually funded by taxpayers (government grants) and with zero royalties paid to the authors. Publishers have criticized it for violating copyright, reducing the revenue of publishers, and potentially being linked to activities compromising universities' network security, though the cybersecurity threat posed by Sci-Hub may have been exaggerated by publishers.
Elbakyan responded by questioning the morality of the publishers' business and the legality of their methods in regards to the right to science and culture under Article 27 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, while maintaining that Sci-Hub should be "perfectly legal."Since 2021, regular new content uploads to the site have been frozen and some new articles are not available except for some batch releases of content. Elbakyan made the decision to freeze new uploads as a requirement of the court case Sci-Hub is defending against Elsevier in India.On 26 January 2023 the Sci-Hub SE domain name was reported to have been taken down. Elbakyan said she did not expect reinstatement of the SE domain and referred followers to the alternative .ru domain instead.A 2023 study has found that more than 50% of academics say that they use websites like Sci-Hub to avoid paywalls.
Evening everyone,
Just wondering if anyone else has a significant rust issue behind their hub caps. My wife bought a brand new MG ZS EV back in January, so it's only nine months old.
I removed the hub caps yesterday as I was topping up her tire pressure and I find it easier to get access to...
I suspect that the hub caps on the ZS EV are tamper proof because I could not get mine off easily.
The car had warned me that my tyre pressure was low, 2.4 bah , so I had dropped into the servo and approached my hub cap and found that I couldn't get the tyre inflator end onto my nozzles, so...
Hi all,
Long time lurker, seen a few people take the plunge.
Those horrendous hub caps are gone, and the wheels underneath are allowed to breathe. Taking them off was easy enough, gentle pressure to remove them.
Disappointed with the quality of the alloys underneath but I’m tempted to get...
I have just had a look at the new zs ev, very nice, except I couldn't believe it had plastic hub caps over the mags, looked cheap.
We prefer our model, nice mags
