It's Saturday, what have you watched this week?
  • My wife and I have been trying to watch Rings of Power after the kids go to sleep. But we haven’t gotten too far yet.

  • [GAMEDAY] Friday, September 27, 2024 (Virginia Tech @ #4 Miami, Washington @ Rutgers)
  • I have a Miami bias, obviously. But I’ve now watched the play about 100 times. The ball was bobbling all over the place, touching players out of bounds, and is never controlled by a VT player. I have no clue how some ref called that a TD to begin with from wherever they were standing. But reversing it was the right call.

  • [GAMEDAY] Friday, September 27, 2024 (Virginia Tech @ #4 Miami, Washington @ Rutgers)
  • Sloppy win. But a win is a win I guess. I was confident the call at the end would go against Miami, as it usually does. I’ll take it I suppose.

  • [GAMEDAY] Saturday, September 8, 2024 (Texas @ Michigan, El Assico, CU @ NU, and others)
  • Miami doing to FAMU what I’d expect Miami to do to FAMU. Thankfully no ND/NIU vibes.

  • AP Top 25 Poll - Sep 3, 2024
  • I like Miami at 12. They looked impressive against the Gators, but hard to know if Miami is good or if Florida is just really bad at this stage.

  • [GAMEDAY] FSU vs BC
  • As long as Miami also beats FSU, yes, this is enjoyable.

  • [GAMEDAY] FSU vs BC
  • Eesh, FSU.

  • [GAMEDAY] Friday Aug 30th (OU vs Temple, Army vs Lehigh, TCU vs Stanford etc)
  • I wasn’t able to catch much football today. But looking for to tomorrow’s games!

  • [Game Thread] August 29, 2024 - UNC @ Minnesota, NDSU @ Colorado, and others
  • Interested to see how Colorado fares this year.

  • What makes a great burger for you? On the contrary, what can ruin it?
  • Cooked to medium rare. Juicy. Toasted bun. Lettuce, tomato, cheese, and maybe even a fried egg.

    An overcooked, dry burger is just not edible for me.

  • [GAMEDAY] FSU vs GT
  • Hah! Agreed.

  • [GAMEDAY] FSU vs GT
  • To the tune of the war chant: Looooong flight hooooooome…

  • [GAMEDAY] FSU vs GT
  • FSU fans feeling antsy at this point, I can imagine.

  • [GAMEDAY] FSU vs GT
  • Wow. That was a heck of a FG to end the half.

  • [GAMEDAY] FSU vs GT

    The game starts at noon (Eastern) on ESPN.

    It's going to be a long day

    My 14 month old had a short wake up at 2:40am. For whatever reason (work stress, mostly) I couldn’t get back to sleep. I’ll be running on about 4 hours of sleep and caffeine today.

    [META] Consolidating dad discussions at fatherverse@midwest.social

    Hi Dads,

    I made a post over in !fedigrow@lemm.ee about possibly consolidating the many dad groups down to just one (at least for now) to encourage activity.

    The general consensus was that we focus discussion over at !fatherverse@midwest.social because, among some other reasons, it’s the only community that seems to have an active mod.

    I hope you’ll join me in posting over there!

    Dads of Lemmy, should we consolidate the Dad communities?

    Right now on Lemmy we have a bunch of dad-based communities with varying levels of discussion. From the ones I can find, we have:

    !dadworld@lemmy.world - last few posts were about a month ago. Mod was last active 10 months ago.

    !daddit@kbin.social - last couple posts were about 2 months ago. The post before that was about 5 months ago. Not sure about mod activity.

    !dads@feddit.uk - last post was yesterday, with some other posts in past few weeks. Mod was last active 6 months ago.

    !dadsonly@lemmy.world - last post was a few weeks ago, with a couple months in between posts after that. Mod was last active 10 months ago.

    !dadsplain@lemmy.ca - last couple posts were a week ago. With about a month or so between posts after that. Both mods were last active a year ago.

    !dadvice@lemmy.world - last post was 3 months ago. Mod was last active 2 months ago.

    !fatherverse@midwest.social - last post was about a month ago, and the one before that was about 4 months ago. Mod was last active today.

    To help facilitate discussion, what do you all think about consolidating the dad-based discussion to one of those groups (preferably a somewhat moderated one, which just seems to be fatherverse…) for now?

    Does anyone here on Lemmy log into a Remote Desktop on their iPad using VMWare Horizon? How’s the experience?

    Happy Friday, Lemmy. What are your plans for the weekend?

    This weekend I aim to relax as much as my children will let me. But my younger daughter turns one on Sunday. So, we’ll likely celebrate that.

    Offseason Champs

    We’re inching closer to the start of the 2024-2025 college football season.

    At this point we’ve had signing day and a bunch of transfers. Who’s your offseason champ?

    I’ll make my very biased case for the Miami Hurricanes.

    Solid recruit class, and great transfer portal pick ups in Cam Ward, Sam Brown, and Damien Martinez, among others. We’ve also lost a few good ones in the portal, though.

    All that said, I’ve dubbed the Canes “Offseason Champs” several times before, and it has not quite translated to anything on the field.

    nypost.com Knicks rout Pacers behind Jalen Brunson’s Game 5 gem

    Led by Jalen Brunson’s 44 points, the Knicks took a commanding 121-91 win over the Pacers in Game 5 to take a 3-2 lead in their second-round playoff series.

    Knicks rout Pacers behind Jalen Brunson’s Game 5 gem

    The Pacers’ beat down of the Knicks in Game 4 had me feeling a little pessimistic. But they bounced back and did the same to the Pacers in Game 5!

    Game 6 will be Friday in Indiana.

    Knicks take Game 2, up 2-0 on Pacers!

    Brunson missed a good portion of the first half, and things looked bad for a while. But he came out in the second half and Knicks took care of business.

    Game 3 will be Friday, May 10 @ 7pm Eastern in Indiana.

    Just a suggestion on links

    I’ve noticed that links often contain duplicative text if you don’t have the compact link setting selected. The post title is usually the link headline, and then part of the link body is usually displayed right under the title. Then, on the link, the same exact headline and body are shown again on the link preview. See image for example. Not a huge deal, but could save some space to eliminate the duplicative text in the link preview.

    Multi-Communities!

    Awesome work on the multi-communities! I haven’t had a chance to extensively test it, but I set one up quickly. Liking it a lot so far!

    Knicks take Game 1 against Pacers

    No idea how. It looked like Pacers had that one in the bag. But Knicks kept it close and somehow came out with the W.

    Game 2 will be Wednesday, May 8 at 8pm Eastern in NY.

    Game 5: New York Knicks v. Philadelphia 76ers

    That was a tough loss. I have a bad feeling about the rest of the series. Hope the Knicks can bounce back and close this out in Philly.

    Two seed is ours for the taking…

    Bucks are down big in the 4th. Knicks down 1 with a few minutes to go. Now is the time to strike!
