iPhone 15 buyers will be reminded Lightning cables are now landfill
  • "Landfill" Wouldn't it be best if you donate a cable or something if its in a good enough condition?

    Better than just tossing it out, especially if some people don't upgrade every single release and would still like a cable.

  • Has anyone else noticed a relatively high ridership of bikes?

    I live in REDACTED and its a heavy car based location.

    Lately though, I noticed more and more bikes in general. Some e-bikes, some just mechanical, but overall a high usage of bikes. I have mine as well I'd use if it was the right type, and if everything wasn't far away from me.

    It feels like my area is on the breakthrough of a revolution of bikes due to things like cars being expensive, maybe convenience, or some other factor.

    I was curious if it's just me seeing this or it's becoming a more common thing. I just wish that we had more bike lanes/paths available. The current infrastructure can't handle the bikes and normal traffic here.

    Infinity for Lemmy is in Beta

    It's missing a few of the features some clients have, but I'm happy that it's here at all as I love IfR.

    Anyone got some albums to recommend?

    I just got into Bandcamp recently and I really want to expand my knowledge base on music. Most of what I listened to was either popular 80's rock or several subgenres of EDM, but I'm slowly (re)introducing some genres like: Jazz, Country, Folk, and maybe Hip Hop.

    Toss me a suggestion if you got one.

    I find it funny how Lemmy's effectively becoming Reddit.

    At least in terms of the communities popping up. A lot of them (even ones I made), are just the Lemmy version of Reddit subs. Is that a good/bad thing? Time will tell, but at the moment I think it's kinda funny of what's happening.

    So... apparently Walmart's closing all of their stores in Chicago.

    As mentioned, Walmart Chicago is closing all locations, more than likely due to theft, like Portland. If you ask me, I'd say rip up the buildings and parking lots and put a lot of flats or bus stations or something as a replacement.

    Is it possible to block communities in an instance?

    Like say for example, I don't want to see anything political. Is it as simple as going to the communities and hit block?

    I'm glad I'm here.

    Idk WHAT Spez and everyone else was thinking. I hope as more news breaks out like Apollo releasing the calls with Reddit and the blackout as a whole with some subs going indefinite, that this rips Reddit as a whole and we move on to different places like here in Lemmy. It's a good place, Lemmy is. Plus, even if an instance or two collapses, it won't affect us all in the long run.

    Get bent, Spez.
