<queqiao-> ⟨Q​uadrupole⟩ Phobos and Deimos have radii very close to their Roche limits, which means their "sphere of influence" is just outside their surfaces.
<queqiao-> ⟨(​ᴇxᴘᴇʀɪᴍᴇɴᴛᴀʟshells)⟩ You mean their Hill spheres?
<queqiao-> ⟨Q​uadrupole⟩ Yes

<queqiao-> ⟨S​erina⟩ .... wat
<queqiao-> ⟨S​erina⟩ That's RENTAL!?
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ One of my textbooks was $120 for a six month rental
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ One of my textbooks was $120 for a six month rental
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ It isn't that surprising (edited)
<queqiao-> ⟨A​l2Me6⟩ Yep, just shelled out $69 the other day for a single semester of a book (I've got a copy myself, but had to buy the official version because the prof uses the etext for homework).
<raptop> May I suggest getting those softcover editions that are marked "not for sale outside of the indian subcontinent" if you want a physical copy?
<raptop> (This is incidentally legal)
<raptop> hrm
<raptop> ...is the using the homework DRM thing popular in undergrad classes now?
<queqiao-> ⟨A​l2Me6⟩ raptop: Well I only have one class doing it so far.
<bees> may i suggest glorious revolution?
<raptop> Anyway, if the class isn't one of those giant >100 student intro courses, it would be worth emailling the professor about costs, alternate problem sets for the future, etc
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ This happened to me as well
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ The book itself is released for free, but the etext homework bundle requires a purchase
<raptop> 🔪🔪🔪
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ The are you suggesting making the professor or the textbook company's CEO a victim, raptop?
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ Are you suggesting making the professor or the textbook company's CEO a victim, raptop? (edited)
<queqiao-> ⟨A​l2Me6⟩ I think you want bees, not raptop.
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ What are the knives for then?
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ I am against it
<raptop> the latter
<queqiao-> ⟨A​l2Me6⟩ Ah, I thought that was in reference to the glorious revolution comment.
<raptop> the professor can most likely be reasoned with
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ briefly, the cost of class material was decreased
<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ Then this mess happened
<queqiao-> ⟨b​adgermasher⟩ I have a lovely mix of textbooks of various quality marked for sale only in one part or another of Asia, saved me quite a bit and

<queqiao-> ⟨P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ Doesn't shipping take a while? Is it even cheaper than renting the etext?
<raptop> At least in terms of upper level undergrad or gradute physics textbooks, it's like $20 ones instead of $200
<raptop> And shipping is pretty quick
