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.
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
Final fumble count: 13
What a game
Overtime in the New Orleans Bowl!
Lmao, muffed PAT and a brawl, what is this game
Just tuning in now, good Lord this weather is atrocious.
Thanks for creating this post, btw. I tried to make a gameday thread before I went out this morning but it didn’t go through in the browser. Wonder if the new Lemmy update is causing that glitch
Edit: woops, wrong account. It’s so easy to get mixed up on mobile. Aaand it won’t let me switch so I guess I’ll be posting from here
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 hadn’t taken part in the flash sale for a couple years (and I skipped the last B&N sale), so I went a little big on this one. Ordered:
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 :(
Ah, I missed it again! And just by a few hours. Is there some kind of mailing list or something to sign up for to find out when this happens? Since I gave up Reddit and YouTube I am way out of the loop on these things. Would have picked up several titles too, since it’s been a couple years…
