Ok I’m all for not wage-slaving it up for the benefit of billionaires but this is just stupid. No matter the economic system people still need schedules and ways to wake up at specific times.
Not for everyone, but I think it’s important to note that there’s other ways of waking up that are much less disruptive.
I’ve used my watch for quite some time. It has a pretty prominent vibration alarm, which I’ll gladly take over any sharp/sudden noises.
I’d like to get another daylight alarm someday, and retrain myself to that way of waking up again.
The responses to this thread on SLRPNK of all places just shows how far gone we are. Even here people default to a commerce-centric worldview where the idea of not waking up to an alarm is a ridiculous proposition.
A world in which humans allow their bodies to sleep and wake up naturally? Don’t be absurd!How would we prioritize meaningless toil over our own health and happiness if we entertained our bodies’ own internal clocks?
Waking up in a panic is your duty as a primate.
As far as I can tell no one was defending a “commerce-centric” worldview. Even in a world without work you still might want to wake up at a particular time. Maybe you slept late, maybe you need to wake up earlier than you naturally do, you might not have daylight to wake you, predisposed to sleeping loads, etc.
