“Why does Coca Cola keep making all those single-use plastic bottles? Sure can’t be anything to do with me and all the Coke I drink”. This attitude really isn’t helped by articles like the one OP linked.

A very easy one is to stand on one leg every day while you clean your teeth

It’s a shame we have so many people trying to prevent these changes by demanding that their driving has to come first.

I got one recently and it’s incredible for shopping. It’s totally replacing car trips

Saying it’s pedestrian visibility is victim blaming, and putting the onus to act on those hurt. If it’s legal for a pedestrian to be near the road, the driver should be anticipating their presence and driving accordingly

Yes, there was a famous thread on Reddit where somebody was experiencing lots of weird stuff, asked a question like this, and it turned out to be CO poisoning

An instance is like an independent version of Reddit

Each Reddit (instance) has its own set of subreddits (called communities)

Whichever instance you’re on, you can access communities in almost any other instance

So in sum… Just sign up to an instance, subscribe to communities that interest you, and don’t overthink it!

Except the trees would survive just fine without us. It’s not really symbiotic

A good starting point is to search lemmyverse.net/communities and then search for the community within Liftoff. If you find a community such as, say, “news” hosted at lemmy.world then search for !news@lemmy.world (including the !)

Much like the case of Reddit, Musk might want to reflect on who actually produces all the content he’s guarding so jealously, and ask himself what’s likely to happen to the value of his site if he makes it difficult for millions of us to write all his content for free

The first couple are widely held to be the least good. I’d suggest jump into the Night Watch set (Guards Guards etc) or the Granny Weatherwax set (Wyrd Sisters etc) - they’re widely held to be good starting points

(Edit: I appear to be fond of the phrase “widely held” today…)

Religious privilege is getting an invite to the meeting where this stuff was decided

Yes, I got ground down by the same same discourse and tropes on post after post. I got especially enraged by “Came here to say this”, which added literally nothing of value to the debate but would usually, somehow, have loads of upvotes

There’s a link to a road.cc article. Perhaps your Lemmy frontend isn’t showing it properly? I can see it on Liftoff

I don’t think you’ll find one without fitness functions, but on all of them you can largely ignore the fitness functions.

For mapping, what functions do you need, and what’s your budget? You can get cheaper units that just show a map (and perhaps overlay a preplanned route) o’r more expensive units that do true satnav-style navigation and can re-route on the move (eg Hammerhead). Knowing your budget would make this easier.

(And with all that said, probably your best option is an old Android phone off eBay and a handlebar mount to run one of the many mapping programs)

I suspect it doesn’t post twice, but rather posts once and (temporarily) displays it twice to the poster

That’s a useful feature, but I think what the other person meant was posts on the front page. A lot of Reddit apps let you permanently/temporarily hide posts that you’d already seen, which was really useful as a way of ‘resetting’ your feed when you’ve already scrolled through it recently

I’m trying them all. As of today, Connect for Lemmy seems to be working the best
