It’s an amazing business model, if you think about it: the research is paid for my the government, the researchers then send it to the publisher for free, unpaid academics are doing the review for free, and then all universities pay for subscription access (with money that largely also comes from the government).
Input is free, the work is done for free, and then the output is wildly expensive, but paid for by tax payers.
But if someone even mentions guillotines people get mad.
Absolutely this. Even if you had fancy jails or docker setups for each submission, this will be a nightmare to properly handle. Students DOSing each other exactly before the submission deadline, too.
I have a simple setup where I use the Obsidian web clipper to save web pages and Syncthing to have the Obsidian vault synced to my Boox Go 10.3. Works like a charm.
