    I didn't Turk really on Friday or Saturday, so this is good for my first week back. Hopefully I can do a little better next week and not go to a concert and spend my weekly earnings on whiskey.

    For some reason the forums really want to turn amazon links into embedded media.

    Code:
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004UE87/
    Is the link to the product page.

    And today is Sunday so everyone remember to back up your scripts, DB and anything important from your system.

    I keep my scripts/DB etc on Google Drive and have an external HDD that I use to backup my PC and I unplug it when not in use. Air gap in case of infection/ransomeware.

    rekognition I believe, but they have changed names recently to AMZN - Rek something or another. Known for blocking under old name, so beware.

    Ah, thanks. I did one a few months ago when it was like $0.40 for 50+(?) slow loading pictures. I've never touched them since and if they're amazon, I assumed the pay is just as bad. :p

    It is actually worse now I think? I believe it is the same amount of work for less pay. Oddly enough every time we see a requester rename into a Amazon Requester Inc - [old name here] it also seems to come with a pay drop.

    Tempt fate much? PC equipment is not made to last forever. Stuff *will* fail, the only question is when. And that's ignoring the human factor... accidentally deleting something, upgrading the wrong thing, knocking over your coffee, etc.

    I don't do many surveys (maybe a dozen a week, only 4 this week) and only turking 15 hours this week I made ~180. I didn't do Zoltars either, but on a good Zoltar week you can make 70-100 on just those. Surveys are a trap. But then most people are unable to figure out how to make stuff like the last a9 batch worth the time so its easy and steady money for those who do.

    There are good surveys you just need to know what to look for. I believe that @Alina makes a lot of her money from them.

    In general though a good batch is better then hunt and pecking for surveys.

    Yeah, I mean I shouldn't knock any batch that I have little experience with since a lot of batches people hate on are really good.
