@solitude @LazerDickMcCheese just, saw this thread in passing so went to look. Tech radar piece from closer to the time seems a good critical piece on it. Sharing the link in case it’s useful to others.

2·3 years ago@Pika Id have to log into the new region from he start, go find the same product, then order. I dont think it would work if I change region half way through a purchase.

3·3 years ago@Pika @supercheesecake dont wanna butt in but in case this is relevant: I use at least 3 Amazon regional accounts here in Europe: UK, Germany and Italy (I live in another EU country). I sign in with the same username/password. Currency of products changes for UK from EUR to GBP, and often different ranges of products can show up. I have multiple addresses listed for delivery and just select the one I want.

@shreddy_scientist @nossaquesapao I shared the academic Internet archive recently, which is pretty good. A JabRef dev commented on adding it to the JabRef search resources. I need to start using JabRef to help begin the move away from Google scholar but that’s very difficult to do as an academic.
