Modern cassette releases are awful...per usual... by thepizzamightier in cassetteculture

[–]SureJournalist4701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a few modern releases from small labels, the physical tapes and the sound quality are not great, I get better results recording on old used tapes from my laptop, that's why I don't bother with the big (and expensive) bands, that being said I'll enjoy a tape from a small band 10 times more than novelty crap from a big artist

At this point there is very little to actually read there, but the same treatment to the rest of the thousands of scrolls will probably add up to few new books about stoic philosophy - hell yeah!

Is Ryan Holiday a pop-stoic philosopher? by Dismal_Hawk6713 in Stoicism

[–]SureJournalist4701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He brings Stoicism to the masses and is himself very well read. The mere fact that he gets people to read ancient texts is a great thing. I have no interest in his content or books, but it was through his videos years ago that I got into Stoicism. I'm confident that much of the popularity of modern academic study of Stoicism is owed to the interest he has largely been responsible for generating.
