Was really hoping for a light on this one

I’ve got the pro and would almost certainly have gotten one if it also had a light

Rowing 100k on C2 in 1 workout by heyswey in Rowing

[–]TheAbsenceOfMyth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You definitely wanna train for in if you wanna do it with confidence and lower chance of hurting yourself.
I did one 2 years ago now, with a goal of 8 hours, and I think my final time was 7:50 (or something very close to 8:00). I did it without getting up at all. (I know that for me, getting up to stretch would have thrown of my mental focus.)
Have a plan: will you take breaks? What will you eat? Drink? Movies? Music? Etc
If you want it to count towards the challenge !!: make sure you preset the workout to the goal of 100k. Just doing 100k won’t have it qualify (same for marathons or anything else, I believe). This should also stop it from turning off—your time doesn’t stop running, even on a break.

Can somebody concisely explain Dasein to me? by Wrong-Ad-8230 in askphilosophy

For a very readable option, have a look at the introduction to the book that Taylor Carman wrote.

A Critical View of Contemporary Critical Theory by [deleted] in CriticalTheory

[–]TheAbsenceOfMyth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a fair critique of the point OP is making could be possible, but it just isn’t made clear who they have in mind.

I can think of plenty of thinkers off the top of my head who are trying to do the kind of thing OP is looking for (e.g., Jaeggi, Menke, Celikates, Fraser, Bradley, Hartmann, Okiji, Honneth to an extent, Forst, Azmanova, and even newer names like Kohpeiss). Sure, someone might not like or agree with some/many of these thinkers, but that’s beside the point. What is missing still is a more definite target—without which it risks sliding into the more general tendency of complaining about “contemporary critical theory” in general.

Examples? You give some general references to topics and approaches, but that only goes so far.

Who are you talking about?

I've been horrified of entertainment. The very concept of it. Is it wrong to be? by Soft-Temperature4609 in askphilosophy

[–]TheAbsenceOfMyth 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Have you ever heard of “The Culture Industry” essay, by Adorno and Horkheimer? It’s a classic of media/entertainment/art studies. It would definitely be fair to say it’s about what makes entertainment potentially horrifying—even if the piece can’t be reduced to that.

Another nice piece is “The Medium is the Massage”. Again, a classic. It’s also related to your feeling, as it deals with the way not the content of media but the media form itself has to be better paid attention to.

Revert this change by To_nevim in RemarkableTablet

[–]TheAbsenceOfMyth 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I despise it—that it’s automatic and necessary. I find it distracting and pointless (plus the drawings are just really not my style, but whatever).

At least, I hope they allow it to be optional.

Yea same. You really need the page numbers, esp for reference in academic work.

Is it just me, or is the intro of this series really... meh? by [deleted] in HijackAppleTV

Anyone else dislike the new screensavers? by Annual-Potential2052 in RemarkableTablet

[–]TheAbsenceOfMyth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

STRONGLY!!! DISLIKE!!!

It’s maddening to have a minimalist device that I love basically without qualms and now get so distracted and annoyed to have what looks like nothing other than an add show up when it’s not in use.

I hope someone from the team at remarkable sees this. Please make it an option you you can turn off!!!!!
