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.
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
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
Noooooooooo
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.
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:
- The Lady Vanishes (1938)
- Young Mr. Lincoln (1939)
- His Girl Friday (1940)
- Some Like It Hot (1959)
- Fail Safe (1964)
I watched four films this week, all of which I'd seen before (so clearly I quite like them all):
- It Happened One Night (1934)
- Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)
- Foreign Correspondent (1940)
- 21 Jump Street (2012)
Really tough to choose one, but would probably have to give the nod to Mr Smith. Jimmy Stewart is just too good.
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 !cfb@fanaticus.social 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.
