1/10 - Threshold Thursday!

Pins aren't on endor. If you fail a golden question you get the oops message. If you return one you get locked out as well. I can't remember for how long, but it's something like 40 minutes.

But also, there are multiple batches right now, so if you get an oops from one block of 40, you might still be fine for the others.

 

The live weather in my area wasn't even 100% accurate yesterday. It was raining but google said that it was 'slightly cloudy'.

I understand predictions being wrong but how hard is it to say that it is raining outside.

 

lmao @ the return report on the pin batch.

I thought it was intentional was wondering what the content was that made it get poofed

 

Apparently, very.

 

I mean I could walk outside to confirm that the sound I am hearing is indeed rain but I think that is asking too much and the weather people should just get their shit together.

 

Morning everyone! Apparently I'm not in the mood to think or write about bread this morning lol.

I just for some reason assumed that shit would be automated. Well I guess that the shutdown has been going on for long enough that the automated shit could be broken....

 

Maybe they could put out an MTurk batch to get confirmation. $0.02, report the weather conditions in your location.

 

Nooo that means that I would have to take off my blackout curtain.

 

I thought it was a pretty interesting read. I do agree that automation and local radar should be good enough to do a decent job though.

 

Woke up to this:



Half expected it to be a string of angry death threats.

 

Think smarter. Poke a rag tied on to a stick out the window. Pull it back in. Is it wet? It's raining. Is it snowy? It's snowing. Is the rag gone? You're in a tornado. Etc.

 

Fixed.

 

I hate waking up to broken images.

Still open to ideas for free options.

 

Yeah, usually turkers wake up to broken dreams
