Skip Google for Research

As Google has worked to overtake the internet, its search algorithm has not just gotten worse.  It has been designed to prioritize advertisers and popular pages often times excluding pages and content that better matches your search terms 

As a writer in need of information for my stories, I find this unacceptable.  As a proponent of availability of information so the populace can actually educate itself, it is unforgivable.

Below is a concise list of useful research sites compiled by Edward Clark over on Facebook. I was familiar with some, but not all of these.

⁂

Google is so powerful that it “hides” other search systems from us. We just don’t know the existence of most of them. Meanwhile, there are still a huge number of excellent searchers in the world who specialize in books, science, other smart information. Keep a list of sites you never heard of.

www.refseek.com - Academic Resource Search. More than a billion sources: encyclopedia, monographies, magazines.

www.worldcat.org - a search for the contents of 20 thousand worldwide libraries. Find out where lies the nearest rare book you need.

https://link.springer.com - access to more than 10 million scientific documents: books, articles, research protocols.

www.bioline.org.br is a library of scientific bioscience journals published in developing countries.

http://repec.org - volunteers from 102 countries have collected almost 4 million publications on economics and related science.

www.science.gov is an American state search engine on 2200+ scientific sites. More than 200 million articles are indexed.

www.pdfdrive.com is the largest website for free download of books in PDF format. Claiming over 225 million names.

www.base-search.net is one of the most powerful researches on academic studies texts. More than 100 million scientific documents, 70% of them are free

Are ya ready to rock wreck?

From what I know, it's a mix of Worf being adopted by humans and something to do with the klingon council labelling his father as a traitor or smth? Anyways all that jazz leads to him growing up different from other klingons, with different morals and ideals, which makes them dislike/hate them.

There are a few episodes in which Klingon culture is expanded upon, but I don't remember the names, sadly :"D

There's also 3 episodes in Voyager in which Klingon culture is kind of explored? There's also a few in DS9.

Klingon culture is kind of a mixed basket. Some are very honorable and just, some are more loose with their honor and some are just using honor as a mask for their own ideals. Most, if not all klingons tend to be very religious though.

I haven't watched Star Trek much recently, so my memory might be a bit blotchy, but I hope it helps :)

So I did watch Star Trek tng but it was more of a casual viewing so I never got to see how Worf wasn’t actually “Klingon-like” (and tbh I’ve been using him as the basis for Klingon ocs), can someone explain that to me please? Like is there an episode where we see him compared to other Klingons? Or do people mean comparing Worf to Klingons from other Star Trek series’s?

Coming into a fandom late
