    Yup! We all have our obsessions. I just super love makeup and fashion. It’s my money and I’ll buy as many floral items as possible!

    The day I went out in a floral dress, floral special edition keds, and a floral purse.

    Man. I felt amazing. I would have worn my floral cardigan too, but it honestly clashed.

    People should spend their money on whatever floats their respective boats!

    I've only explained today why I'm never going to bother forking Overwatch to make significant changes. It's too much of a mess for me. I've had people ask me in private messages on here, on that other forum (I forget what it's called), on Reddit, and in my FB group to fork Overwatch and make change (X), (Y), or (Z). I elaborated further when pressed and prodded to explain myself. If you follow the whole thread, it's not too hard to understand this context. It's not my code, and it'd take too long for me to make sense of it to be worth my time.

    I also clearly laid out grounds earlier that I don't have any personal vendetta against anyone, lest it be taken that way, but clearly, that went ignored. In the same breath, I praised Kadauchi for the well-organized code in MTS. I also gave him credit for the inspiration for an idea I shared earlier this morning.

    I've explained in the past why I avoid using jQuery, and why I think crutching on jQuery can be detrimental to money-making under certain circumstances. I figured that improving code so that it was better at making money was more important than reassuring a new scripter that he's a professional programmer.

    I forgot that the most important thing in the world is the delusion that they're the best at what they do.
    Here I was thinking that constructive criticism would help people write better scripts, to in turn make more money. For people who aren't fragile snowflakes, and don't have their fragile ego tied up in the notion that their code is beyond criticism, I suppose you know where to find me if you want to learn or collaborate.

    I'm all about results. I like to joke around and have fun. I really don't have time for all of this sensitivity and the drama that it spawns. If you criticize my code, I'll either be happy that you taught me something new, or laugh at you for not knowing what you're talking about. I simply can't relate to someone who has so much of his sense of self-worth tied up in the arrangement of letters on a screen. That's beyond my level of comprehension.

    Right now, I'm working on an Arduino/Node/Tampermonkey project to create some mTurk-specific hardware. If anyone has any suggestions for an mTurk-specific USB device that they've had stewing in their heads, let me know.

    lol @ people asking you to fork someone else's code. I don't expect anyone to do anything. But what is released I will use.

    I know but it is just kind of funny that people would bother requesting something like that unless they are paying you.

    Yes. That was the will of the forum.

    IIRC that was even @Randomacts will, or at the very least, he didn't oppose it.

    Not necessarily a USB device, but I'd love an app on my Android that notifies me when something I've got running in PC on my desktop catches something and it's in my Queue. Perhaps some kind of combination of a Arduino or Raspberry Pi linked with Pushbullet will do exactly that.
