    Unfortunately I don't have the power to blow south dakota up so you are safe for the time being. :emoji_imp:

    Damnit, just spent 45 minutes on the worlds most boring $6 hit, it's one of those stupid iFrame setups where it thinks it's an add if you don't turn off adblocker. Anyway, I finished it, hit "Complete Hit" button in the iFrame, and then it got stuck on "loading next hit". Turns out I got logged off mTurk (6 hours early!). So I signed back in, went to the hit to try to submit it again, now I'm getting an error message. I emailed the guy, but still, annoying. At least his TO (while red) mentions he's responsive.

    Just like any place else I suppose it depends on where you are. Personally my area is filled with graffiti and shopping carts. I hate to make the wrong impression, like I live in compton. Very few of the people are actually dangerous but then again a guy I went to school with stabbed a guy to death a year ago two blocks from my house. I used to like the place more until I had a gig gathering petitions and realized how truly toxic the political culture is here. It's nice to be isolated and I'm not the most social guy myself but I would say the isolation kind of makes the place an echo chamber which is not very conductive to any progress. Anyway, I'm glad you're enjoying the state pm me if you're ever on my side of the state and I'll buy you a beer :)

    I think you said the town has a FB group? Maybe ask kindly if everyone could please keep their dogs inside at night for a few days, because it's scaring Bearnie and making it harder to catch him? You've got video evidence that this is happening, so maybe either ask via FB or go that specific dogs owners and ask them.

    Super nicely of course, play as much suckup as you can manage

    LOL. There's an eternal argument on the fb about letting your dogs walk around town. I've already been pissed before because when dogs wander into our side yard, it makes Skeeter go bonkers in the middle of the night. I've already talked to the owners and they told me to fuck off and basically threatened to shoot Bearnie to death if they saw him.

    Sooooooo, yeah.

    I can confirm, Delaware does exist. I go there quite frequently to buy cheap booze and expensive electronics with no sales tax (saved $58 on my Pixel!)

    I use a 2nd Chrome profile that doesn't have Adblocker on it. It helps me keep all my Turking bookmarks & Tampermonkey scripts separate from all my regular Chrome usage, and avoids the usual Adblock problems that I don't want to encounter while I'm trying to make some money.

    They're all horrible. Just accept what is happening and let it.

    THough, the spatial was alright for me because I'm basically Rainman when it comes to those.
