Abstract
As I am sitting at my desk, struggling to write out the first sentences of this text, I think of all the gifts that made it possible for me to be here. Online services like Wikipedia and, yes, Sci-Hub, allow me to access some of the massive wealth of knowledge that humanity has amassed. Free internet radio, supported by donations, is playing in the background. Looking outside, the rain – the first in days – sustains the crops that I will eventually get to eat to stay alive. And of course the sun, the biggest gift of all, gives warmth to humans, energy to plants, and keeps countless Earthly processes going.
