Usually googling a title will also list a PDF from a university portal, or even a public available full version elsewhere.

2019-03-02 15:06:43 UTC  

you drop dollars?? lol

2019-03-02 15:06:46 UTC  

If _everything_ fails there are other means. Either use a university or public library (which can get the study from the university on loan per request) or various pirate platforms.

2019-03-02 15:07:04 UTC  

I use all available legal means.

2019-03-02 15:07:24 UTC  

@Wojak That all is extremely useful information to know about. Thanks.

2019-03-02 15:07:37 UTC  

Also, when googling, use search flags and options properly.

2019-03-02 15:07:44 UTC  

"This in quotes" searches EXACTLY what is in quotes.

2019-03-02 15:07:44 UTC  

nah

2019-03-02 15:07:58 UTC  

you need t oput them n theur plkacve

2019-03-02 15:08:01 UTC  

filetype:X where X is the type (filetype:pdf) will only return that file type.

2019-03-02 15:08:13 UTC  

Look up google's search settings or flags or such.

2019-03-02 15:08:23 UTC  

Your first attempt should be an exact search of the title.

2019-03-02 15:08:37 UTC  

If you do not have the title, try the author and year with general keywords about the topic summarized.

2019-03-02 15:08:47 UTC  

Often newspapers and others will intentionally NOT cite the source directly.

2019-03-02 15:08:49 UTC  

The fuckers.

2019-03-02 15:09:14 UTC  

I say intentionally because I HAVE NOT YET SEEN A SINGLE JOURNALIST NOT LIE ABOUT THE CONTENTS OF A STUDY

2019-03-02 15:09:15 UTC  

That is true, but also why I don't ever read the news about research.

2019-03-02 15:09:16 UTC  

_EVER!_

2019-03-02 15:09:23 UTC  

_NOT ONCE EVER_

If a journalist ever wants to interview me I have only one answer.

2019-03-02 15:09:53 UTC  

"Go fuck yourself"

2019-03-02 15:10:30 UTC  

An honest journalist is like an honest prosecutor. They play cards with Jesus and Santa on Thanksgiving.

2019-03-02 15:10:40 UTC  

*snerk*

2019-03-02 15:13:23 UTC  

Welp its been fun but I got to go outside for a while. Look forward to talking to you again @Wojak

2019-03-02 15:13:30 UTC  

see ya

2019-03-02 15:30:03 UTC  

The Sound of Silence

2019-03-02 15:46:28 UTC  

That's one of my favorite songs.

2019-03-02 15:46:37 UTC  

I like the original and disturbed's cover.

2019-03-02 15:48:07 UTC  

Disturb's cover is one of the worst covers I've ever heard.

2019-03-02 15:48:10 UTC  

Fiteme <:ree:480188470942498827>

2019-03-02 15:48:28 UTC  

Enh.

2019-03-02 15:48:59 UTC  

It misses the point, all the points and all possible points, and radically alters the song to unrecognizability in a manner that renders the lyrics useless.

2019-03-02 15:49:27 UTC  

Ramping up to pointless screaming (comparatively so) doesn't deliver the message, it does the _opposite_.

2019-03-02 15:49:32 UTC  

You're allowed to have a wrong opinion.

2019-03-02 15:49:34 UTC  

_The song was presented monotonously for a reason_

2019-03-02 15:52:20 UTC  

I don't think it was meant to be just a replay with different musicians. Covers are supposed to reinterpret the song.

2019-03-02 15:52:33 UTC  

I liked both.

2019-03-02 15:52:43 UTC  

You're allowed to have a wrong opinion.

2019-03-02 15:52:44 UTC  

;p

2019-03-02 15:54:27 UTC  

I'm listening to the original right now.
