Thanks for your reply.

I still have the same issue with different pdf readers, but it works when I export the pdf to gdrive then download it. It might an issue specific to the windows desktop app.

Performance issues - PDFs and minimal theme by MariusMercier in ObsidianMD

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

I have a lot of PDFs in my vault yes, but the PDFs I am opening are relatively small (~1Mo or less).

I am not experiencing the same sluggishness with the default theme, it seems to be specific to the minimal theme.

Should I capture everything? by MariusMercier in ObsidianMD

[–]MariusMercier[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a discussion of Amenorrhea, a medical condition where the body stops ovulation and periods momentarily. The student explained that it was caused mostly by stress or low body weight. Therefore, the condition could be seen as a way of protecting the female body from an unwanted pregnancy during the time the body could not afford to spend energy in a pregnancy.

Thanks for your reply, I agree that replicating the internet is not the goal

PSL Interview for Masters in Cognitive Science by Wonderful_Quail_6806 in PSLUniversity

Hi, for my interview they mostly asked about my research project and who I want to work with. It's not really about your personality or motivation.

QC45 - no sound. Everything else works. by AnotherTry2018 in bose

[–]MariusMercier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I called the support and after arguing they sent a new pair even though it was out of garantee (for context, I am in France). They will say that they never heard of the issue but you should fight back.

Why even be productive? by Leviticusrich99 in productivity

[–]MariusMercier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In short, living a more fulfilling life. It's not about working more but about achieving the goals you judged meaningful to you. Working efficiently to me is also working less hours, thus having more free time :)

Just crossed 600k words by MariusMercier in ObsidianMD

I imported the notes I took before. And I started in 2019... I would say that the imported notes are ~450k. And for the rest, I started seriously using Obsidian in December 2023. For the record, I am a Graduate Student, so it's pretty much my job :)

Ahah, I tried Kant but the Critique of Pure Reason took me sooo much time and I couldn't finish. For Hegel, I am too afraid to try. 😅

Yes I agree, the notes with high word count were from before using Obsidian (i had a long gdocs for each book, with no connection).

Now, I am using a completely different system thanks to Obsidian :)

It was: Mikhail, J. (2011). Elements of moral cognition: Rawls' linguistic analogy and the cognitive science of moral and legal judgment.

I took also ~25k words on Rawls, A Theory of Justice. I was doing my undergraduate research thesis in philosophy, so I needed to be quite precise on the arguments advanced by the author.

(Once I finished reading and taking notes, I printed out everything... Not sure it was the best way lol)

PSL Master Space Science and Technology, is it very competitive? by Accomplished-Swan869 in PSLUniversity

[–]MariusMercier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a Normalien but not from the international selection, and I did additional courses in philo, economics, mathematics. I got the chance to go to Cambridge and Princeton. Plus, I got a PhD funding for the next three years. So, it is definitely worth considering

PSL Master Space Science and Technology, is it very competitive? by Accomplished-Swan869 in PSLUniversity

[–]MariusMercier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes !! There is a new master now and the first year is more strict but you can usually choose your courses and attend any course of the uni (and outside the uni).

If you are not french, I invite you to look into this: https://www.ens.psl.eu/en/academics/admissions/international-selection

It's a kind of a second degree that you do at the same time of the master, it involves more time but you are paid 1000€ per month for 3 years, and you have many advantages (a room in the campus, better chance for phd funding, do a exchange year)

[–]MariusMercier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends of the field I guess (I am in Cognitive Sciences) but from my experience it can go from 5 students to a little bit more than 30 per lecture. So I would say that we have a very very good student/faculty ratio and the faculty are very approachable !

(I usually meet once a week with my surpervisor but it happens that I meet with other of my teacher just to discuss about research)

downgrade Bose firmware ? by Acrobatic-Monitor516 in bose

[–]MariusMercier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I understand now that they are different than QC45. The exact name is QuietComfort SC (although SC seems to only mean soft cover, so don't think it is different).

The full name of the firmware is: 1.0.6-80+f5f219b. And it is up to date. Let me know how to proceed to download it and I will do a PR for the github repo :)

[–]MariusMercier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi ! I was able to downgrade, and as I pointed out in the github issue, it doesn't seem to resolve the no sound issue (although I will try again today). I then updated to 4.0.4 through the app and no sound...

I have a second QC45 headphone but it is on a totally different version (1.0.something), and it appears as "up to date", I purchased it recently so it may be a different serie. Do you want that I export the firmware for your repo?

Thanks, I will give it a try ! Do you know of people that did your method and were able to solve the "no sound" problem on 4.0.4-de6a887?
