A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

Apple used USB C in laptops because of the power requirements.
I’ve got plenty of lightning accesssories. Only one of those is made by Apple. Lots of cheap 3rd party lighting alternatives available
Every one of those accessories could have been cheaper if apple didn't effectively drm their port through the mfi program.
Odd. Looking at a third party, I tend to buy from a 1m Lightning charging cable is exactly the same cost as a 1m USB C charging cable.

A couple things. All the cables there are pretty overpriced imo vs what I can get on Amazon from like cables to go or ugreen. You're also comparing cables with half the conductors of those usb c cables and with higher Guage power cables to hit the higher amperage that usb c allows.
Bottom line - the price difference is negligible to the consumer
