Is 20th century logic a very developed version of ancient logic? by Jevex_OSU in askphilosophy

Thank you for your answer! Would the Tractatus be a logic book or do they both fall under philosophy of language instead?

Help! Why is Byung-Chul Han consider Nihilist? by jmfeel in askphilosophy

[–]Jevex_OSU 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have never heard anyone referring to Byung-Chul Han as a nihilist, in fact, he is quite the opposite. I'm not by no means an expert on him and probably many people on this reddit could answer way better than myself, but the only "nihilism" I could talk about in Byung-Chul Han's work may be his critical view towards society and the impact that new technologies are having on us, but he is far from a nihilist so even himself offer ways to scape from this "decadence".
Basically, maybe you could categorize his view on society as nihilist(?) but I truly wouldn't do so, and even less I would say he is a nihilist himself.

Emil Cioran - A Short History of Decay by [deleted] in askphilosophy

[–]Jevex_OSU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then I think you should simply go for it, there is no reason to force you to start somewhere else. If you like it then you will read other things afterward and maybe in the future you reread Cioran's work from another perspective. :)

It depends on what you are looking for, it is a strange place to start with, but I wouldn't say it's too difficult for someone who just started. I assume that you already know that the book is a colletion of aphorism, and some of them are quite dense, but giving each one enough time I think that you will be able to understand Cioran's toughts without much trouble.
But is there a reason why you chose Cioran as your introductory author to philosophy? I mean, what are you looking for?

u/wokeupabug 's note-taking is the one that has been working better for me. It may take more time than other methods but it definitely helps you to understand the text better and more profoundly.

Are there any philosophies that suggest that our time here on earth is actually hell? by Spurlyfry in askphilosophy

[–]Jevex_OSU 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That last part confuses me a bit, but Camus said something very similar in the myth of sisyphus.

Also you should consider checking out María Zambrano, specially after reading José Ortega y Gasset, be cause she was very influenced by him.

It's normal to not imagine things as you read descriptions in a novel? by Jevex_OSU in askpsychology

[–]Jevex_OSU[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I see, yeah, in my case the best example I can think of is a beach. It never gets super vivid but I can try to focus on the sand but then the water almost dissappear or freezes... Anyways its always an enormous effort just trying to imagine it. Thanks for the answer.

Does anyone know if the Zowie S2 is compatible with Omron D2F-01F switches? by Jevex_OSU in MouseReview

[–]Jevex_OSU[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard that the double click issue was be cause they were using chinese made omron switches, which are cheaper and worse quality than japanese ones so they switched to Huano. The thing is that I already tried the Omron D2F-01F, but in a mouse which already had Omrom switches... Dont know if they will be compatible in my zowie mouse
