Agreed.
I can’t say where the line is for what you should turn in
Where the line is drawn in the law seems like a reasonable demarcation: the Treasure Act of 1996.

Boca Raton Bowl:
The officiating in this game is, uh, not good. Both teams kinda getting hosed
I missed the kickoff of the Independence Bowl and am bummed I missed Cal scoring. Hopefully there’s lots of points and the Red Raiders lose (I probably won’t be staying up for the end of this one)
Lol, yes.
I haven’t been following FCS (other than hearing the NDSU coach bailed on his team for USC during their playoff run). How are things going there?
LA Bowl: the only Boise player that has attempted a pass going into this game is the punter?! That’s a crazy factoid
Overtime in the New Orleans Bowl!
It doesn’t under American trademark case law. Add to the fact it’s in another country and I’m certain their legal team wouldn’t bother.
Also, I probably should have used KFC as a better example:
Disclaimer: not a lawyer
Reddit is an American company and this degree of similarity is not close enough to violate USPTO law.
Now, it’s close enough that their legal team could try to argue it in court and then sure, the Lemmy instances might be sunk because who is going to fight them? But I don’t think an American judge would even hear this case. And if they go after feddit.de that would be interesting because I think their users could rally together to save it/fight back.
Plus, if Reddit were to win a USPTO case over the Feddit name that would have chilling effects so I could see advocacy nonprofits jumping in to provide legal support in that fight. But again, probably will never even get there.
I disagree. The country-specific Lemmy instances tend to share the Feddit branding which I think is a big plus. I think there’s a strong argument the name doesn’t infringe Reddit’s brand (it’s not like Apple can just make all i-Whatever products go away).
And feddit.de is the 5th biggest instance, and would surely run into problems first. They seem to be doing fine.
I watched four films this week, all of which I’d seen before (so clearly I quite like them all):
Really tough to choose one, but would probably have to give the nod to Mr Smith. Jimmy Stewart is just too good.
Red River was complete trash?
Not everyone is undefeated :(
When horns lose, I think ‘no’
When aggy also lose, I think ‘yes’
Uh, Minnesota, if you only last 12 seconds, might want to get that (defense) checked out
Blame your fellow Lemmings for ranking us #1 in last week’s community poll
as long as the community is created on a larger instance it should show up when users sort by all within that instance
This is an issue for communities that are on smaller instances, and with the current algorithm it’s like a brick wall trying to break through to feeds of users on the big instances. For example, the most active college football community is [email protected] but the abandoned community on lemmy.world keeps gaining subscribers (even with no content).
As a whole, niche-driven instances (e.g. sport, film, literature, aviation) and geography-focused instances (e.g. midwest, dmv) just aren’t gaining much traction.
Greed has often been described as equally evil to hate. As Robert Frost put it:
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
This is a shame, but it’s understandable. Just as long as they don’t cut back on what they carry online. They have a fantastic online selection which the stores never really matched. Some of their sales made it possible to grab Criterion blu rays for cheaper than the 50% off sales at B&N.
