When I started we were using pictures from Corbis with the corbis watermark left on. I asked as was told that the watermark was supposed to be there to "give them credit because we didn't pay for the image".
Ah ha ha ha ha ha!
Professors using images in their classroom materials and powerpoints might get by on fair use exceptions (at the very least it's unlikely anyone would ever know or care that the copyright was being violated in such a way). But an institution using unlicensed stock photos in printed products that will be sent to thousands of people is just begging for a lawsuit. They should be teaching students not to do that sort of thing in ethics classes!
I have 5 levels of bosses in the office right now, plus some as of yet unidentified visitor.
If you throw a ball at a boss, can you trap them in another dimension? Try and see.
Or evolve them into something better? Like Chris Evans?
So, this year's presidential elections will have a ton of new voter restrictions in place. [link]
Hi!
I got behind about 6 weeks ago because Reasons (actually, probably more because IDEK) and when I was able to try to catch up I kept getting to only a week behind (and thus felt like I was about to catch up and should not skip) but somehow no closer. It was very Achilles and the Tortoise.
But I made it! Take that Tortoise. And Zeno. All y'all.
Anyway, been sympathizing and sending out ~ma and cheering as appropriate, but about a week behind.
Hi -t!
I am always cheering along, even if I don't say it!
I especially love that here I can feel caught up, unlike Facebook which has a neverending list, yet manages to show me the same post 18 times, and then when I try to scroll past it just tells me there's new stuff, instead...I swear, I'm sure half my frendslist is getting married, having babies, getting cancer, and being fired, and I don't even know it because I see the same meme 18 times that I liked once and now has new likes?!?
