Hey aveline @aveline idk if anyone else has mentioned this or if I'm just unlucky but if you hit "preview" and get the spinny wheel of death the forum bans you for what seems like 5 minutes? Maybe that's just me but it was consistent across all my PCs/browsers :hilarious: :spam:
Weird, it shouldn't be doing that anymore. I'll look into it though. :facepalm2:

Sorry about that.

I'm addicted to TikTok. Just thought I'd share. Cause I just took a DNA test turns out I'm 100%, Turkmenistan. [edit: I'm going bonkers, it's gotten really slow]

My best application was for this Alegion batch where they where looking for map coordinates. Had AHK open the source code, find and extract the coordinates and all other necessary info, format the text, and fill in the answers. One hotkey press.

Of course, they never posted that batch again.
Story of my Mturk life.

I've made a lot of really great scripts with it. I remember doing barcodes in the summer of 2015 with a PS3 controller instead of keyboard/mouse using an AHK script. Or those Giphy HITs where you had to tag all of the different Simpsons characters. i was making like $40+/hr off those with an AHK script that had a GUI with all of the different characters on it.

It's probably the one thing I miss most about working in Windows. Autokey is an okay replacement, but I'm really limited by my lack of python knowledge right now. Also, it's annoying having to make separate scripts for each individual keybind. AHK just seems so much more efficient.

If it helps, I think it's from typing a boatload and the editor trying to save the progress.



My fault for typing a dissertation to a simple yes/no question :hilarious:
Ha, thank you.

I had something setup on there at one point that was applying temp IP bans to people making too many POST requests in a really short period. I kept accidentally IP banning myself though, so I thought I disabled it. >.>

Title: Evaluating Effort(~ 5 minutes) | PANDA

Description: This survey is a University of Waterloo, Canada research study being conducted in the department of psychology. The faculty supervisor is Evan F. Risko, PhD.

There is always a risk your responses may be intercepted by a third party (e.g., government agencies, hackers). Qualtrics temporarily collects your computer IP address to avoid duplicate responses in the dataset but we will not retain this information. All of your responses will be stored on a secure server at the University of Waterloo, Canada, to which only authorized researchers have access. If you prefer not to submit your survey responses through Qualtrics, please do not sign up for this study.
