Layoffs are unpopular so companies are tightening the belt by making the working conditions less hospitable.

Return to office is designed to have employees leave willingly so they can reduce headcount without making employees feel unsafe about budget cuts.

With a trim at the bottom by letting go of low performers and encouraging top performers to leave they are just trending toward mediocrity.

You can normalize preferred pronouns by declaring them when you introduce yourself. Eg. I’m Barry and my pronouns are he/him. That’s being a good ally.

If you get someone’s pronoun wrong, it’s no big deal as long as you don’t keep pushing it. They can correct you and you should just use their pronoun after. The most important thing is to use the correct pronoun once told.

You can also ask if a person you have just met has preferred pronouns.

The DT8 is a marvel. I love the shape and design.

Yes, I think so. The main screen just shows recently played, favorites, or games by console, plus a launcher to go into the RetroArch configuration. As long as they are shown to stay out of that menu, the rest is very simple and clearly described/illustrated.

Good eye, it’s actually the newer Emisar D4K which takes a 21700 battery but maintains the same head size as the 18650 powered D4v2. The raised button is a huge game changer for me!

They also now make the D4v2 in a 2 channel variant (two sets of different LEDs) and the D4K just became available in a 3 channel variant!

It’s been amazing to feel like we’re part of something that’s growing so fast. I’ll miss Reddit but I expect Lemmy will fill in the role sooner rather than later.
