rich privilege in this country is way out of hand
Having a bunch of rich people around is worse than everything except not having them. :)

I mean, basically that's why I got my 4th gen i7 for free, it wasn't worth them bothering to sell it.

Edit: Speaking of first world problems, working on my big-screen laptop sure is clumsy compared to my quad-screen home computer!

I've emailed 5 times since March 5th with no response. That is why I am in search of the IRB email :(
Very strange, any time I've had an issue they usually get back to me within an hour.
Hope you get it sorted.

Stupid question. Are these A9s safe? I mean it's opinion-based, right?

P.S. Since it came up, Dell is known for some pretty annoying proprietary, non-standard nonsense - but they're generally well thought out machines and pretty reliable, and when they're not reliable parts are available.

Apart from my XPS 2010, but that's just crazy oddball and I only got it *because* it's crazy oddball (20" screen laptop that wouldn't even fit on Shaq's lap).

At PE: 15, I'm taking my nap because I can't focus anymore.

Also, why does it feel like have of these surveys do very light gray text on a white background? it's like they don't want us to be able to read.

Ctrl-A to select everything and highlight all the text, read it, and then click somewhere "safe" like the margins to undo it so you can scroll or whatever.

I even did one of their make up HITs and then contacted them explaining why I did it and nada, zip, zilch.

Well, I take that back they approved the 1 cent make up HIT and did nothing else.
