Ayaneo 2 review: I wouldn’t trade a $400 Steam Deck for this $1,300 handheld
The flashy Ayaneo 2 has Valve’s Steam Deck beat on specs with AMD’s 6800U, Hall Effect sticks and triggers, a bigger battery, and a high-res screen. Sadly, you can’t play with a spec sheet.Sean Hollister (The Verge)
Would you prefer a 4-day workweek?
Last year, 61 companies in UK tested a 4-day week with 20% fewer hours. Results:
65% fewer sick days taken & 57% drop in departures to competitors.
39% of employees had less #stress; 71% had less #burnout.
Revenues rose 1.4% on average.
“Many questioned whether we would see an increase in productivity to offset the reduction in working time – but this is exactly what we found,” a study team member said.

Let’s discuss Joseph Poore and Nemecek’s study as it is regularly referenced.
Poore’s study did indeed study GHGs, acidification, eutrophication, land and water use. But the paper does not conclude a recommendation of veganism. Instead, it calls for producers to monitor impacts, and find different ways to produce foods.Farmer Against (Farmers Against Misinformation)

Something weird has gone on with how the-federation.info counts Misskey.
According to them, Misskey now has 475439.5 users. That's right, that includes .5 users.
If this were true, Misskey would be one of the most popular Fediverse services.
Either way, this confirms that these stats sites haven't been getting Misskey user counts right for a long, long time.
