04/22 - Sweet Saturday!

I popped my computer cherry with the Macintosh Classic my dad's then boss gave us, so my sister and I could learn to use computers, which he told my dad was going to be very important for us one day. I'm always glad my dad swallowed his pride and took it, I loved that thing! Thanks Bob, you da real MVP bruh!

 

Went manually searching for HITs since not much is popping up on hit finder, and found an $8 Abe S HIT that I didn't know was available, so yay

 

Mavis Beacon......I put so many hours into that as a younling.

 

It works. 'Auto Submit' doesn't work for me, but you can use this to submit them:

Spoiler: OCMP5 - Enter to submit

Code:

// ==UserScript==
// @name OCMP5 - Enter to sumbit
// @description Helps you make choices
// @version 0.1
// @author RicanGuy86
// @grant none
// @include *.mturkcontent.com/*

// @require http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.0.min.js
// ==/UserScript==
$(document).ready(function(){
window.focus();
$(document).keydown(function(e){
if (e.which == 13){
$("a[href='#'][class='button cc-button submit-btn btn btn-primary ']").click(); // Enter
}
});
});

Be sure to disable the script when not in use.

 

hoping he puts up some non-masters android ones today

 

jumping in on the "we're old and used old PCs talk". I had to show my 4th/5th grade teacher how to use our classroom pc b/c she was so lost. I think my original mac (performa 630) still works, if I can find all the cables for it. Totally remember the huge ass floppies and green/black screen we used in elementary school though....which later in middle school we used to program lego robots.
I also had dial-up until 2006 :/

 

I will pray to the mturk gods for you!!!

 

LOL my first computer had a tape deck wired in, no floppies. There are a few other people on here who remember those. My high school had Ataris and Commodores. I was so excited when I saw my first GUI in college.

 

Anyone else ever get the feeling that despite all the tech advancement old computer's actually were faster since we just waste all the resources on bloat?. I mean we went to the moon on less than a 486.

 

Projected Earnings for Today $57.20

I'd almost swear a DEC I had in the 1990's ran Office faster than anything I have now, and Office was on floppies then. For things like that, it does seem like they were faster. Of course, it wouldn't even be able to run modern Office, Office is too big. Bloat, like you said. There really is not anything they have added to Office in the last 20 years that I could not have done without. Of course, I could not play all my new games without my new computers, so I pick now.

 

I was screened out, I assume, because I answered the first question and it took me to the next page in chinese (or similar language). OK then.
