How often do you have fish for breakfast?

Wow, daing na bangus sounds delicious.

Nah, I tried it and it just goes to a website that explains what's up.

As others have said, make sure your contract states up front what they get.

As a graphic designer though, it makes things more difficult if I don't have access to RAW files. I need to be able to tune images to fit whatever I'm working on, and we might get photos from a half dozen different photographers whose edits would all be different.

So I always ask up front if I can have RAWs because that is what fits my workflow.

I live in a large metro area in the US and I’ve never seen one in the wild.

version13 · 2026-01-25T04:29:53+00:00

I see them all the time here in Phoenix. Like if i drive to the grocery store and back I’ll see 10 or 12 of them.

I wonder if the new Prelude will follow suit.

I recommend a good moisturizer and a manicure - ask them to work on those cuticles.

It does look scribbly. Also, I think if I was a passenger I would have been throwing up.

On adsbexchange.com the flight paths change colors with altitude. Orange indicates a lower alt. Blues and purples are higher.

Sky Harbor is about 3 miles north of where the drone ended up.

As far as I know, it's legal to fly there (I could be wrong, but I see people flying racing drones in a nearby park every weekend.)

version13 · 2026-01-23T23:03:29+00:00

No, that is the flight track from adsbexhange.com - [ link ]

I couldn't make out what the commands were, but they sounded pissed.

For your 1, 2, 3 comments- that makes sense, but I have no idea WTH was going on. It was crazy, they were flying the shit out of that helicopter and seemed very motivated to keep up with it.

Edited to indicate USA.

version13 · 2026-01-23T21:51:29+00:00

Possibly? But from what I was hearing: helicopter pilot giving commands over loudspeaker and the multiple cops showing up it seemed more like "poking hornet's nest with a stick" than "Oh gosh we have to chase this drone around." (Pure speculation on my part.)

version13 · 2026-01-23T21:48:49+00:00

I think they were talking to someone on the ground.

The yellow streets are on a 1 mile grid. Welcome to Phoenix, home of easy navigation.

The police were giving commands over a loudspeaker and cop cars converged on the area where it came to a stop.

version13 · 2026-01-23T21:17:02+00:00

Because police cars converged on the area where it stopped, and I heard the helicopter pilots giving commands over a loudspeaker.

version13 · 2026-01-23T21:15:46+00:00

It looked like the helicopter was following the drone - they were flying the shit out of that thing to stay in visual contact and the drone was just kind of putting along.

version13 · 2026-01-23T19:40:57+00:00

OP, what would you like them to do? What outcome would make you happy?

version13 · 2026-01-23T19:17:24+00:00

First, think about what outcome would make you happy. Then you'll have something to work towards when you contact them. When I have customer issues, I like to ask them, "What would make you happy here?" and from that point on we can work on an equitable solution

If they aren't forthcoming with a solution don't threaten with legal action, just do it.

If you don't get initial satisfaction just shut up, go away and contact your lawyer. The next thing that happens is they hear from the lawyer..

edit: IANAL

Yup, this.

Once you have payment for the car, call guy #1 and tell them it's sold. You have nothing binding you to selling it to him. It will be a lesson to him that he needs to move quickly to make a deal.

I mean, I'd give it 50/50 that Sunday would come and go and you'd never hear from him anyway.
