The touch pad does a lot of the heavy lifting.
I was able to beat space age in 101 hours on only the deck. Plus the suspend / resume is incredible.
(The 256GB LCD version is 20% off right now though Valve / Steam)

So I said screw out and dumped into VTI and never looked back. I’ve had 10% return YoY for 5 years now.

It seems like if it’s for work you can use your work email… or have IT create an email alias for you. At work I was given the standard email and I asked IT to use a more generic alias and they got it to me rather quickly.

Then the rest of the day I’ll scroll lemmy if I need to. The vast difference in tone and substance of the comments is astonishing! Usually I forget I’m not in tildes and question if everyone is ok, then I remember. 🙃

This works with full screen apps too (full screen soldering then swipe back) and helps keep things clean since Mac is awful at window mgmt out of the box.

I saw a recommendation for a book club set up once that was: everyone reads a different book and then gives a presentation on their book at the meet up. I think this might be a great way to do this gaming book club. Have everyone pick a game to play and then come back and review it to the group. That could get around the time commitment issue (users only play gales they have time for).
And wouldn’t you know it, we have a tildes discord for time strapped gamers that I think would work great for an async discussion forum (if you don’t do it in tildes itself)
I’ll third the ATH-M50 rec. I’ve been using my current pair for nearly 10 years and my previous pair was also 10 years. I recently replaced the ear cups (I think $20 total?) and wrapped the head band in gaffer tape. But my next set is probably also gonna be ATH-M50.
