Still not explaining why you are saying this is a dishonest framing?

That's the current scenario though.

Photographer is using Ozzy's fame to cash in on the photo, it's not like there was an arrangement here.

How is it dishonest? If Ozzy wasn't famous, that wouldn't be an issue.

This is the snake eating its tail.

The photographer only took photos because he was famous. The photographer is getting money from someone else's work.

But the person you are profiting from cannot use the photographs because he is profiting from your work?

I understand that legally, there is a set of laws to manage that. But ethically that is fucked up that the person you took a photo from didn't give you permission and you profit from their notoriety, but that person cannot use the photos himself.

There is a difference between you going to a photographer asking him to take photos of you and a paparazzi taking a photo of you in a public setting.

I want to ask a genuine question and I am sorry in advance if it comes as rude, this is not my goal.

When coming out to your partner (if you've done it or plan to do it), what were/are your expectations of your partner?

I am asking because I absolutely love my GF (we've been together for 13 years and have kids), but sexuality is a big part of the relationship and if she told me she was trans, I could not be in a relationship with a man. I am simply not sexually attracted to men, and I am a monogamist, and that particular scenario would be a no go for me.

I really want to iterate that I am genuinely interested in hearing your stories, good or bad, if you want to share.

Thanks

That's the best no context quote of the year so far.

If they change course in the next 5 years, so be it. But right now, Jeep took some dev time to develop this, meaning they plan to use it at some point.

They deserve to lose the trust of the consumer because they gave us a peek behind the curtain and it fucking sucks.

Stop being pro-corpo, they are not your friend and they will piss on your corpse if that means they get a dollar more.

I love how that saying this is a software glitch is somehow supposed to make it okay? Motherfuckers, you took time and money to develop the thing. In doesn't matter that it wasn't supposed to be deployed right now. It matters that it was developed at all.

This is my tinfoil opinion, but I wouldn't be surprised that it was done on purpose to gauge the public reaction and setting the pace of rollout.

The timing is too perfect knowing damn well that Republicans won't legislate that.

Humans find jobs for themselves and their community all the time, but not fucking bullshit jobs like data entry technician or call center technician.

I fucking hate cleaning, but I will happily help a friend or family member clean their house or their apartment because we thrive in a community.

Not getting the humanity squeezed out of us for a few cents more.

We're on week 3 of rolling diseases here. I am the only lucky one that hasn't got sick (yet), but my mental state is at an ATL with the erractic work schedule and the constant whining, barfing and snot.

Oh I totally agree with that. It's dumb that there is so many systems that use SSNs as an identification.

My identity infos have been leaked with the Desjardins leaks, so my SSN is forever known and all the critical services that uses SSNs are now more vulnerable.

 

Hello,

I found a used Miller Falls #9B for a good price. However, the iron is really used.

The tip of the blade is almost all the way to the screw hole on the iron.

I am a beginner woodworker and I am not sure where to find a replacement iron for this plane.

It seems like Millers Falls part are out of make (or i might be wrong).

So where can i find a replacement iron?

Thanks
