New Bike Day

Picked up a new Specialized Diverge to go along with my Allez. Moved to an area surrounded by gravel roads, so I got a gravel bike to ride on.

Did 13.8 miles this morning. Only saw 1 vehicle.

Colorado could ban sale of gas-powered lawn tools in metro Denver, northern Front Range by 2025
  • How does this work though for large yards(5+ acres etc)

    I live on 5 acres in MN but just don't trust the electric snowblower or riding mower.

    For reference I have the ego chainsaw, weed eater, leaf blower and push mower (previous house).

    The push mower ate through 3 batteries easily on a small lot.

  • Strong aurora borealis in the northern US this thursday
  • I saw the northern lights for the first time in MN this past winter (just moved here and out to the country). It was breathtaking. Something I've wanted to see my entire life and it did not disappoint. Makes me want to go further North to see it better.

  • Isn’t it a bit of an annoying having repeat communities across various Lemmy instances?
  • It will work itself out. There have been splits in the past. /r/Indianapacers became /r/pacers and /r/prowrestling became /r/squaredcircle.

    The real issue is having the same username on multiple instances. It's going to cause issues.

  • Gravel Recommendation?

    I'm in the market for a gravel bike. Currently riding a 2020 Specialized Allez which I love. I've moved to a rural area, hard to find routes without hitting gravel at some point.

    Bike would be used on a mix of gravel + road.

    How reddit crushed the biggest protest in its history: Did it, though?
  • The quality of posts on Reddit have dropped off in my eyes. I still go there during the work day, just don't have it on mobile because the app is so bad.

    What I see during the work day on the top of /r/all just isn't that interesting.

  • Purchased a Popup!

    Our family bought or first popup this week after being an exclusive tent family. 2005 Rockwood, in excellent condition.

    Previous owners were crying as we pulled out of the driveway.

    We'll be using this on any vacation we go on, typically we go to National Parks and rent AirBNB in the area. This will pay for itself after a couple of uses.

    (Controversial) Should lemmy.world close registrations at a certain user count?
  • I honestly think during the sign up the registration to a server needs to be randomized to spread the load. That and allow the user counts to be global and not just to your instance and you then have user load balancing.

    If we could also migrate our data between servers with a backup server option. When lemmy.world goes down, just switch to a different randomized backup server.

  • Pixel Tablet Question

    Anyone have the new Pixel tablet yet? I'm curious, can I cast music from the tablet to the speaker? Or use the speaker as a smart speaker without the tablet connected to it?

    Emerald lake, Rocky Mountian National Park
  • I got back from RMNP in May. Absolutely loved it. Saw 3 moose, about a thousand elk and some mule deer.

    Emerald Lake Trail was covered in snow and very slick so we unfortunately didn't do the hike, but every trail was amazing
