    @NotASingleClare My go-to is to scroll straight to the bottom and copy/paste the copyright text if they have it down there. I usually don't bother with logo deciphering unless there's no other choice.

    I was actually happy to read this:

    "You have already completed the maximum number of HITs allowed by this requester. Please click 'Return HIT' to avoid any impact on your approval rating."

    Apparently I'm burnt out from surveys. Feed me some batches!

    I actually used to teach middle and high school mathematics. Its so fun trying to explain to 15 year olds why they need to learn and use the formula for geometric and arithmetic sequences .

    Because the state says you have to and your life will suck without a diploma. Accept it, learn it, and move on.

    I get a fairly consistent 1-3 second lag when both loading and submitting Zs. I wish I knew why but it's the same across varying computers, routers, connections so I just accept it. That has a more drastic effect on my hourly when doing 5s and also, more importantly, increases my frustration level.

    Say NO to 5s

    There's an advanced auto near my house that shares a parking lot with Taco Bell. Show up with $20 worth of Taco Bell and those dudes will be more than happy to do whatever annoying minor maintenance that you don't want to do yourself.

    Same, you can sometimes tell if the text at the top is copyable as well.

    I get super annoyed if they use an image of a totally web safe font. C'mon, get with the program guys, HTML has had font support for aaaaages now.

    I have the same lag on loading/submitting Zs. It really does take the hourly from decent to meh.

    That's about the answer I gave them but if I said it like that I'd hear from a parent.

    Hence why I no longer go there.

    That's shocking to me. I spent almost as much time on these as the old ones and the PE was barely rising so I stopped that real quick. Definitely a better PE on the old ones for me, that goes for all 4 varieties.

    And you're right, Jams haven't posted in many months to my knowledge. Not at all in 2018 unless I missed that day.
